Summary

- Source: Believe 1998
- Recorded: 1998
- Performed by: Cher
- Copyright: 1998, Warner Music Group
Fair use rationale
- This is a sound sample from a commercial recording. Its inclusion here is claimed as fair use because:
- it illustrates an educational article about an artist that specifically discusses the song from which this sample was taken
- it is a sample of about 30 seconds from a much longer recording, and could not be used as a substitute for the original commercial recording; and
- it is not replaceable with an uncopyrighted or freely copyrighted sample of comparable educational value.
- it is believed that this sample will not affect the value of the original work or limit the copyright holder's rights or ability to distribute the original recording.
Additional rationale In the articles "Cher" and "Believe (Cher song)", the clip helps illustrate the genre and production technique in the song. Because the song pioneered the use of Auto-Tune software, the article text alone (and images) would not suffice to illustrate the topic. Also, for this reason, the clip has been included on the Auto-Tune article, where the song is referenced multiple times and the neologism "Cher effect" has come to define this type of vocal production.
