Hooked on a feeling was written by BJ Thomas

I don't know who wrote this song, but generally:
Only writers and publishers (not artists, producers) profit from re-recordings and cover versions.
Kev
Since the songs are rerecorded by studio musicians, Razor and Tie only needs to pay a royalty on the song, rather than on the original recording. JK, I noticed a couple of yours on these CD's. Have they cut you out by re-recording them?
I guess they pay the kids as session singers with no points, then use different ones next time around (to stop their greedy parents asking for more money).
Sweet!
I wonder how much they pay per kid? Surely it can't be as much as they'd pay for pro adult sessions singers.
