thread_title: Hot 100 of all time?

message: To whoever wrote that The Tennessee Waltz is an example of "a song about itself" needs to back that up. That seems dubious to me. The title of the song references the song that was when a "friend stole" a "sweetheart" from the speaker. The song title is therefore just a reference point for the speaker. --Jackbox1971 (talk) 01:41, 11 August 2009 (UTC)

message: Did Pee Wee King have a hand in writing the song as the first line states, or did Jimmy Wilkinson (Jimmy Wilson) write it and sell it to him as stated under "Background"?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.25.43.158 (talk) 00:05, 17 March 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Lead sentence was not properly referenced, and has not been edited to reflect recently added, referenced information. Easy enough to fix. King and Stewart wrote the song, showed it to Acuff, but were under contract to Hill and Range, etc. The music biz is not as simple as many narratives would have you believe. King remembers that Steve Sholes with RCA Victor didn't want him to record an new song nobody had heard of before. And it looks like King also got the years wrong in his book. BTW, thanks for pointing out the discrepancy. Steve Pastor (talk) 18:07, 12 August 2015 (UTC)

message: Although Cowboy Copas' version of the song - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4XG6tlIqeYc - lists him as a co-writer, other versions only credit Stewart and King - for instance http://www.flickriver.com/photos/55355525@N08/7611842548/, http://www.discogs.com/Patti-Page-The-Tennessee-Waltz-Long-Long-Ago/release/2963391, http://www.discogs.com/Jerry-Fuller-Tennessee-Waltz/release/5711155.  If there is a reliable published explanation of this apparent discrepancy, it can be added to the article - but not simple assertions added to the lead.  Ghmyrtle (talk) 14:41, 10 August 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: Also note that they were in the back of a truck when they wrote the song in this telling. I always wondered about them being in a limo! Steve Pastor (talk) 17:11, 10 August 2015 (UTC)
