stop trying to create insane stretches to justify your bullshit position

your copying word for word example was covering a song

turning a stripper pole music song into a acoustic ballad

or turning a dance song into a love song

completely changing the context of the music so that it does not represent a DIRECT loss of sale of the original work

fair use already balances the situation your talking about

while still protecting the derivative works i am talking about.
