Now check out Glee's version of "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun:"

Laswell was never contacted for permission, nor was he credited by Glee.
The same thing has happened with Jonathan Coulton's arrangement of "Baby Got Back" (which I will not link here due to its decidedly-not-child-friendly lyrics)
This sort of thing makes my blood boil. I have no idea if these are the only arrangements stolen from independent artists, but I suspect they aren't.
