Lyric interpretation DELETE

I got rid of the section of lyrical interpretation because it had a lot of language regarding "some people" and "some fans" without any sources. If you wrote it and feel that it is worthwhile to mention, than you should cite.

Other double A-sides from DM

QUOTE: he single is the first UK double A-side release by the band since "Blasphemous Rumours / Somebody" in 1984.

While this is true, it should be noted it is actually the third double A-side release overall. The other being "Home"/"Useless," released in the US market in 1998. 72.132.36.31 20:40, 21 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Origins?

I'm pretty sure the song "John the Revelator" has been around for years, and there should be something redirecting to an article on the song or it's origins. 130.127.78.152 17:41, 18 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

seconded - This is an interesting song with some very interesting lyics. A history on it is greatly needed. Sweetfreek 19:54, 2 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It's a completely different song. I'm listening to the Blind_Willie_Johnson version (1930) right now--it's in Vol. 2 of the Anthology_of_American_Folk_Music. See John the Revelator (song). Billbrock 03:36, 9 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The title and call-and-response chorus places the song squarely in the tradition of the Son House. Other artists have taken off from the original but I think it deserves a mention. I'll write a little sumthin' sumthin. Jackbox1971 04:34, 22 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

If you think it's a completely different song than the original then you are either deaf or being stubborn through a developed bias. It's clear of the intent through the lyrics and phrasing that it is inspired by the original. 74.138.134.42 (talk) 14:16, 30 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
