This is a bit of a long shot but can anyone help me on this? A while back I did a cover version of an old song called , "Lean On Me" orginally by Bill Withers and I wasn't sure if I was allowed to sell this as an mp3 as a Cover Version? Or would this involve getting in touch with the guys that own the song in the first place?

The reson why I'm wanting to do this is because I uploaded it to youtube and I have been getting alot of private messages asking me where they can buy this from and I only have ONE copy at home on CD that I can make into an mps but not sure whether I'm allowed as it's a cover version.
Can anyone shed any light on this?
