How the fuck do they work out who gets what? And who are "they"?

It would depend on the contract and how many middle men there are but as a basic starting point tgere's around $1,000 gross for one million youtube plays. So if you get 100 million thats $100,000 gross. In some deals you'd get all of it in others as little as 10%. Thats for all the musicians/performers and they'll have their own deals as to who gets what. The song wroters get a cut too but theres all kinds of middle men there too. Middlemen include collecting societies, publisher, recordcompanies, management, lawyers and general cunts.

The copyright in a song in the UK lasts until 70 years after the songwriter/s death. Noddy Holder and his offspring are good for a few decades yet Copyright in a recording in the UK lasts until 70 years after it is first published (released). It used to be just 50 then Cliff kicked up a big fuss.

I've wondered about this before, who gets what and who keeps track of it all, etc. In the film About a Boy, Hugh Grant plays a person who is just living off the royalties of a one hit wonder his old man had years ago. Very funny film by the way.

Put it this way if you can sing a song and create a melody line as you do so you own most of the song 80% of it .
Elton John could have been twice as rich if only he had an imagination.

PRS collect writers royalties in UK and pass on to either the publishers or the writers depending on the contracts. PPL collects performance rpyalties of performers. Sales and direct income for the master is collected y record companies generally via distributers or platforms.this included records, streams, downloads and sync licenses. There are country based agencies and World wide based agencies. Since the internet collecting agencies have been moving globally but its still much easier for the PRS to collect from the BBC than some yank mob.
So, as I said before. There are many areas of income for performers and writers and there are countless middle men. Rule of thumb is if you have a big tune it generayes decent wedge otherwise expect little.
