You need to clear the rights to be able to legally play the song while playing your movie. I don't think it's all that much different from playing the song on the radio. Maybe I'm misunderstanding what you mean by recording?

All these fee-collection agencies allow YOU to play the song.

You need to go back to the source, if you wish to RECORD the song so SOMEONE ELSE can play YOUR version (whether you simply copy someone else's rendition, or get someone to create a new rendition for you).

Cheers,
