Talk:Coward of the County

message: Who writes these things?  The sentence "against whom songwriter Roger Bowling had a 'bias'" is ridiculous.  Presumably the author meant "grudge", not "bias".124.197.15.138 (talk) 06:44, 5 September 2010 (UTC)

message: Is there any evidence that "Coward of the County" is a subtle criticism of Fundamentalist Christian beliefs?  In the song, we have a lifelong criminal who presumably makes a deathbed conversion to Christianity and then seeks to impose his religious beliefs on an impressionable young child.  This leads to a lifetime of repressed emotions, an incorrect perception of weakness which leads to the rape of an innocent young girl, and explosive rage that results in serious injury or possibly death to the Gatlin boys.  Is the purpose of the song to show what literal adherence to the teachings of the Sermon on the Mount might lead?John Paul Parks (talk) 04:50, 8 March 2011 (UTC)

thread_title: Subtle Criticism of Fundamentalist Christianity?

message: Bowling might have said there was no meaning behind it but I'm right now listening to an interview with Larry Gatlin on the Adam Carolla show and he talks about introducing himself to Bowling at a country music award show when they were up for the same category. This was it seems before Coward of the County was written. Larry went to introduce himself Bowling simply told him to "f-off". He has no idea why, but it would seem Roger had a problem with the Gatlin Brothers. So when he later wrote Coward of the Country and just happen to pick three brothers named Gatlin as the villians in the song, it's hard to believe that there was no intension! Here is the interview. http://adamcarolla.com/larry-gatlin/  Adam Carolla

Talk:Danger Zone (song)

message: This article says, "The bass line is performed on a Yamaha DX7 synthesizer, with the drums being provided by a Roland S-50 keyboard, both instruments extensively used in 1980s pop music." 
This is stupid and ridiculous, the Roland S-50 wasn't used extensively in 1980s pop music, wasn't used on Danger Zone, and didn't exist when this song was recorded or even a year after it was recorded. This song was on an album released May 13, 1986, and was in a movie trailer made 1-2 months earlier. The December 1987 Keyboard Magazine has a new product review of the Roland S-50 and that would have had to have been written in September 1987, and also has a 3-page advertisement from Roland for the S-50. Aside from completely keyboard synth/sampler based artists like Art of Noise, Depeche Mode, or Pet Shop Boys, I'll bet there wasn't a single top 20 song in 1986 that had all the drums coming from ANY keyboard sampler. People just didn't do things that way in 1985 and 1986. 
This song, like almost every other top hit song from 1986, uses the LinnDrum for the drums. You can hear it in the snappy kick drum and the stick-y hi-hat sound. There's no way to source this Linn information (no way to source common sense or reality for Wiki standards), but I am deleting this Roland sampler garbage.66.245.201.46 (talk) 10:57, 26 December 2018 (UTC)
