Talk:Wanda Jackson

message: I removed these lyrics as I believe they violate copyright laws.
 You can say I'm crazy 
 Stone deaf and dumb
 But I can cause destruction
 Just like the atom bomb! 
 'Cause I'm a Fujiyama Mama
 And I'm just about to blow my top!

:OK. So, I guess those are supposed to be the "many references to the atomic bombing of Nagasaki and Hiroshima". I don't see it. Defenders? Steve Pastor 01:02, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

message: Wanda Jackson was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as an "Early Influence."  She certainly deserves to be in the Hall--- but (even though she was way ahead of her time) she's not all that early.  She is only two or three years older than The Beatles, for example.

message: A little rant here, from this particular hard headed woman.  Wanda Jackson and Elvis were basically kids together and talents together, asking her father's permission to date and all that. She did the country rockabilly hits at least as well as he did. But Wikipedia's article on Hard Headed Woman is a real open and shut case of holding back the one for the wrong chromosomes. Not that getting the Elvis treatment was good for him of course. But even today here is Wikipedia saying that the song was basically an Elvis hit ( he didn't write it of course) and everybody else connected to the song like Wanda are incidental characters.  When I was growing up, it's only the Wanda Jackson version of Hard Headed Woman that I heard about a million times playing on the radio, not the Elvis version.  It's kind of funny IMO that the Hard Headed Woman Wikipedia article in almost 2023 is a perfect example of what Wanda faced in the late 1950's. I mean the pop culture significance of the Elvis version in terms of commercial success. In my ears, Wanda Jackson basically was the sister musically in every way of Jerry Lee, Little Richard and Elvis, and she had to be all that with minimal encouragement or positive guidance - although I'm sure you could make the same case for Little Richard - . But I think in terms of not being taken seriously....Wanda would have been taken by the industry as a bit of a freak show and not just as a person with a love for a certain art. The proof is in the listening.Harborsparrow (talk) 16:06, 29 November 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: I recently updated the Hard Headed Woman article.  So far so good, it hasn't been vandalized.  Elvis got a #1 hit out of it, but it's Wanda's version from about the same time that everybody remembers and that gets on diner playlists.Harborsparrow (talk) 15:29, 21 December 2022 (UTC)
