Talk:Banned from Argo

message: I added a link to a description of the Star Trek Comedy album, which includes a track listing with "Banned From Argo" on it, and there was already a link to the song's lyrics and quite a few links to other Wikipedia articles as reference.  What else is needed to remove the "does not cite references and sources" tag?  For the record, my primary source for this article is a recording of the song itself, on the aforementioned Star Trek Comedy album. -- Pennyforth 18:02, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

message: User:Newyorkbrad changed 'everyone' to 'every one,' but the lyrics linked to from the article have 'everyone.' Which is correct? Njál 20:02, 11 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: It's a grammar/style point: "every one" as in "every one of us is banned from Argo," as opposed to "everyone" meaning "hey everybody, guess what, we're banned." See for example here. Also, "every one" has stress on both words, which is how I remember the song being sung, as opposed to "everyone" which has stress on just the first syllable. But if I am trying to be more hypercorrect here than the person who wrote the lyrics, feel free to change it back. Newyorkbrad 20:07, 11 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, 'every one' makes more sense—I just wish we had a more reliable lyric source to back up the way it sounds on Folk Songs for Solar Sailors. Njál 14:19, 8 May 2007 (UTC)

message: I used to be Leslie's roommate, and this is the story as she tells it.  Once you feed her enough scotch that she'll talk about "that song."
Actually, the origin of "Argo" is nothing so interesting.  A friend of hers was creating the album, and they were several minutes short.  He called her, knowing she could create a song quickly, and offered her $100 to make a song to fill the space.  With a number of themes already filled, they needed something relatively light hearted.  So she eventually settled on what the crew from the Enterprise would do on their shore leave.
She was trying to think of a name for the space station, looked around, and she saw a can of green beans in the garbage can.  The brand name was Argo.  It fit, so she used it.  There's no actual significance from the name, just a name she saw in the trash can while quickly writing a song for a friend.
Actual story, as it comes from Les.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Deviant bellana (talk • contribs) 08:26, 3 November 2007 (UTC)

message: I removed the Prod template because it is the winner of the Pegasus Award and sources mention the song, both of which may indicate notability.--PinkBull 14:19, 9 March 2010 (UTC)

message: Afaik, Banned from Argo has not been endlessly expanded on, it has been endlessly *parodied*.
There's an entire songbook of the "bastard children of Argo", but as far as I'm aware, those songs aren't intended as new verses to Banned from Argo, they are intended as, well, different songs using the same tune.  Tamtrible (talk) 07:20, 27 January 2017 (UTC)
