Does FitBit Owe a Royalty to the Writers of This Song?

by Gaius PubliusSomething fun. Lately I've been inundated with ads for something called "FitBit" — a health toy that sits on your wrist and, apparently, talks to the Health app on your iPhone. Or something. The problem is the song. It's catchy, yes, very earwormy. But if you know your punk (or "parody punk") French popular music, it's also way too familiar.Bear with me; this will be worth it.
