Possible Pop Culture Reference

Used in The Color of Money when Vince is playing pool. Major reference, Tom cruise is playing, dancing and singing to the song. It was propably the bigest reference the song has gotten. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.71.110.77 (talk) 16:31, 21 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The Phoenix Coyotes used "Werewolves of London" as their song after they score a goal at US Airways Center.--BigMac1212 19:47, 1 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

There must be meaning behind the moaning

I'm not sure if Wikipedia is the place for analysis, but is the song literally about werewolves in London? Has Warren Zevon ever spoken about the song's meaning in an interview? I had always assumed it was about yuppies of the American Psycho variety, but the song was released in 1978, long before rich young people existed in Britain. -Ashley Pomeroy (talk) 21:01, 25 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

There is a movie "An American Werewolf in London". Don't know if it is related. Pustelnik (talk) 02:09, 1 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Internal and External Alliteration?

Any poetry experts wish to comment on the line "Little old lady got mutilated late last night"? This must be one of the most alliterative lines in popular music in the English language

Yeah, I've often thought that myself. Very poetic. 76.21.0.82 (talk) 08:10, 27 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Kid Rock turd fest

Is not a cover. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.185.6.18 (talk) 12:17, 18 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
--you're right, it's a rip-off. create a new section.

"Better stay away from him..."

"...he'll rip your lungs out, Jim!"

I'm curious: is "Jim" just a random short name used to complete the lyric, or is it a reference to Jim from Marlin Perkin's Wild Kingdom? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.178.227.161 (talk) 17:19, 2 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
