Talk:What's the Frequency, Kenneth?

message: "Tager for the assault on Rather, and many skeptics remain unconvinced, although Rather accepts the Tager theory."
What are the skeptics unconvinced about?  What is Tager's theory?  It sounds like this is saying that Rather accepts that Tager is from the future... SJS1971 11:05, 25 September 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Why exactly does this article need such a detailed description of the incident?  The article's about the song.  Surely the incident could have its own article, or the material could be on the William Tager page. --Jfruh (talk) 02:28, 2 October 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree with you there Jfruh and i have cut down on the detail of the incident, as the song itself is not about that incident, it is just referenced twice in the song and in the title. CityFeedback (talk) 20:55, 12 September 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Confusing Line

message: I have spent the last two nights trying to expand on this article and by now it looks like i have done quite a lot, and some information in the article may be unnecessary.  I have, however, added a 'Notes' section for references, which the article did not cite any sources beforehand. CityFeedback (talk) 22:16, 12 September 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Extended the Article

message: Take a look at the sidebar, something's not right. Ryan Stoughton (talk) 15:42, 15 November 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Wasn't that difficult to fix, since there was an attached reference. Please try and be bold around Wikipedia. - Dudesleeper /  Talk 15:57, 15 November 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Recorded after it was released? 

message: I think there is a bit too much overthinking in the section about the font used on the single's cover. Yes, all those details are true about the lettering, but it has nothing to do with this song. That was a newly released font at the time and graphic designers everywhere fell in love with it; it was over-used everywhere. The L2 nightclub in Truro, UK uses it in their logo; the Australian rock band TISM use it in the artwork for their 1995 album Machiavelli and the Four Seasons. An arbitrary choice by a graphic designer does not contain any insight into the band. Well spotted though.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.4.202.8 (talk) 17:33, 6 April 2009 (UTC)

thread_title:  Details about the font used 

message: Removed the following section as there are no sources to verify the claim that the song was "likely inspired," and the author's description of the "dramatically different" guitar work is completely irrelevant.
"MUSICAL STYLE: Likely inspired by "Feeling Called Love" (1977) by  Wire, "What's the Frequency, Kenneth?" is dramatically different from R.E.M.'s previous singles, as it features more prominent guitar overdrive and a reversed guitar solo (one of few R.E.M. songs to feature a guitar solo). As the opening track to Monster, the song establishes the general musical style of the whole album, which is very guitar-oriented."  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.89.44.225 (talk) 20:33, 12 August 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Irrelevant Speculation

message: No mention about the psycho who beat the hell out of Dan Rather while shouting "Kenneth, what is the frequency?".  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 190.120.4.8 (talk) 14:39, 5 December 2017 (UTC)
