Artist permission for my A2 music video - Ain't No Sunshine

1. Artist Permission.
Dear Columbia Records,
I am a Media Studies student from De Aston School writing this letter to ask for your
permission to have the rights to use the very famous and classically well-known song “Ain’t
No Sunshine” from the artist Bill Withers.
I chose pick this particular song because I felt this song was such a classic that I couldn’t
afford to miss the chance to sort of bring this song back to life (not that it ever died out) and
let people just feel and respect this classical song a little bit more. The fact that I’ve even
mentioned the song to my class has already gotten them singing the song countless times, if I
can make my class mates and my Media Studies teacher bring up the song every time I come
to class and mention the various ideas I have for the layout of the music video then I know
that if I were to have your saying I would be able to reach a lot more people and a bigger
audience. I am fully aware of the all the famous artist as of today that you have signed like
Beyoncé, Calvin Harris, Adele and the rest. So I highly understand why you are second major
record company to produce recorded records.
I would greatly be thankful if I were to get your saying to be being allowed to use the song
“Ain’t No Sunshine” for my A2 music video.
Yours Sincerely
Alex Onyejuba
