Yes. They're public domain so absolutely
You can find my music at: www.herbhartley.comAdd nothing that adds nothing to the music. You can make excuses or you can make progress but not both. The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.

Welcome, William!
Herb is correct. The guidelines posted at the top of the User Showcase forum are less than clear on this point:
"The songs must be originals, no copyrighted or "cover" songs. You must have all of the rights to the songs."
However, public domain songs are routinely posted here and I've never noticed one being removed by a moderator. That being said, what's in "public domain" varies from country to country, so it is at least a little complicated on a multinational forum like this one...

As mentioned PD is defined differently in many countries. The US has about the most stringent rules and most folks misinterpret them thinking a PD sound recording is the same as a PD lyric and melody. Every Jan 1 is "PD Day" in the US. And the PD available songs move forward one year. This started several years ago. For 2025 songs from 1929 and older are PD. This means that if you create your own version not copying anybody else's you own ALL rights to the song thus meeting PG Musics protocol. Most folks do not consider a properly vetted PD song to be a cover. Covers have to be licensed and are not allowed on the forum. We have released entire albums of PD songs. Again this applies to your use of the melody and lyric. Actual audio recordings of old songs have to be a bit older but this is not what we are addressing here as this is mostly related to using one film, etc. The below safe link is helpful. https://web.law.duke.edu/cspd/publicdomainday/2025/Have fun!!

Our albums and singles are on Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, YouTube Music, Pandora and more. If interested search on Janice Merritt. Thanks! Our Videos are here on our website.
