Talk:Sh-Boom

message: In my middle school music class in Des Moines, Iowa the music teacher taught us that this song was the very first rock in roll song? Too bad there isn't anything else on the internet that can back this up... Yet again, maybe the teacher is wrong.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Crysis-singer (talk • contribs) 22:00, 30 January 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: First hit rock song or first rock song?

message: Although Sh-Boom has been credited as the first Rock 'n Roll song, I disagree.  First of all, the singing style is more akin to the four man groups of the 40's and early 50's such as the Four Freshmen, the Four Preps and the Mills Brothers which is to say, Barbershop harmonies rather than the do-wop group singing such as The Platters, The Coasters, the Del-Vikings, the Skyliners and the Penguins just to name a few (namely a lead singer, a bass singer and at least two back-up or rhythm singers vs the group singing the melody line in four part harmony.)  
Too, the beat is just not a rock 'n roll beat.  Compare Sh-Boom to, say The Del-Vikings - Come Go With Me and one can hear the difference.  
Although the subject matter is rock 'n roll (life could be a dream if I had you) it isn't presented in a rock 'n roll way.  Compare this song with "Only You" and one can hear the difference in emotion. 72.130.78.29 (talk) 20:57, 4 August 2009 (UTC)

message: The Wikipedian Batternut has removed my add in that this song was featured in the recent TV commercial for Nexguard Chewables for Dogs on the grounds that it "isn't encyclopedic".

Talk:Shake It Up (The Cars song)

message: Does anybody remember, way back in the 80s, that some unknown songwriter claimed Ric Ocasek had flat-out plagarized this song from him? The guy claimed he had sent a tape of his (or his band), with the song on it, to the Cars's private studio, Syncro (many artists did, when the band was actively using Syncro, and some of them got the attention they needed) -- and next thing he knew, a facsimile of the song became the Cars's biggest hit to date. All I remember is reading about it in the newspaper in the 1980s; I've never come across any online mention of the accusation. Anyone?
I don't buy it for a second, by the way -- Ocasek is and was far too prolific and too talented to bother plagarizing.

Talk:Shake Your Body (Down to the Ground)

message: I inserted the US side label into the infobox and then pushed the German/Dutch front cover further down. I thought about replacing the German/Dutch cover with :File:The Jacksons 1977.JPG, but then I also thought about simply removing it without substitutes. I think the German/Dutch fails to be irreplaceable because it does the same purpose as the free side label: identifying a release of the single. Also, the article is about the song, not the band; the readers can go to The Jacksons for the article or :c:Category:The Jackson 5 for photos.
