Rationale of fair use for Sinkin' Soon
The image is being linked here; though the picture is originally copyright, I (Extraordinary Machine 13:16, 31 March 2007 (UTC)) feel it is covered by fair use because:


 * 1) The image is a screenshot from a promotional music video originally created by Blue Note Records, and intended for wide distribution.
 * 2) The image is of lower resolution than the original screenshot (copies made from it will be of inferior quality).
 * 3) The image does not limit the copyright owners' rights to distribute the single or music video in any way.
 * 4) For an article containing discussions of a music video, a screenshot is arguably the most important image that could be included. This is a screenshot from the video, intended by Blue Note Records for wide distribution. As such, it has future historical significance, and is a more appropriate choice than any other image available.
 * 5) Its inclusion in the article is important because it suggests something of the video's style.
 * 6) The image is being used for informational purposes only, and its use is not believed to detract from the original single or music video in any way.
