Someone who knows what they're talking about needs to explain that it's in 4/4 time and modulates once and is verse chorus verse with a bridge or whatever and whatnot. I trust you Wikipedia, the Hive Mind knows all! Chrisrus (talk) 03:12, 18 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I was hoping for more of the "whatever and whatnot", anything of interest to the reader beyond the obvious, done beyond what I could have done. Chrisrus (talk) 06:17, 18 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Lyrics

[edit]

First, we should say for those unfamiliar with the song what it is, on the face of it, about. We are presently missing some obviously true information. Next, we should say what, if you've seen the documentary, the source of the controvercy, what it has been claimed that it was "about", the man close to the band who claimed it was "about" the "stealing" of Linda by Johnny. Finally, we need to note that this has been "debunked" by another person close to the band who said that Joey was unaware of their relationship at the time he wrote the song. Also, it seems regrettable that we can't find any statement from Joey himself as to what whether any of that is true, or what really inspired the song. Some of the most recent edits seem to have impovrished the article a bit in terms of completeness in accomplishing this. I didn't understand some of the justifications given in the edit summary. For example, what does Baby Got Back have to do with anything? Chrisrus (talk) 06:17, 18 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
