We do not give good/bad opinions, because music enjoyment is a personal preference for each person. The family felt unhappy because no one asked the author’s permission. When I showed this song to my father, he said it was not the original song. My father supports the creativity of young people, but that does not mean arbitrarily using or changing songs without asking the author’s permission.”

Music researcher Nguyen Quang Long also believes that modifying a song without permission is disrespectful to the author.
“I think that deriving musical works can also be considered a way for young people to create art, but this job requires careful consideration and civilized behavior in terms of sharing rights.
If a new work uses a musical feature, piece of music, or verse with lyrics that are deeply ingrained in the hearts of the audience to be derivative of another work without the consent of the author (the person who created the original work). ) or the copyright owner of the work lacks the necessary respect,” the music researcher shared above Vietnamese people.
