---- YouTube: Warner Music Group claiming that this material is infringing

...The song if I may is Star Wars related....

I've worked for Lucasfilm and seen firsthand how aggressively they enforce their copyrights. I've also seen who ceased and desisted and dumped considerable media investments because of the mere suggestion by Lucasfilm of innappropriate similarity.

I can't comment about the other videos, why Warner Music might go after an adaptation rather than copied originals, or why Warner Music rather than Lucasfilm has complained... but if this is indeed Star Wars related, I'd take the video down and keep it off the internet.

This wasn't a "performance" but a home recording to share with family.

Then share it with the family... not with YouTube's 100-million other users. Burn a DVD, send it by US Mail, and warn everybody in the family not to upload it to YouTube. If the family still has VHS machines, you might be better off sending VHS cassettes.
