Talk:All Star (song)

message: "It may also be a parody of the well-known line from the Led Zeppelin song Stairway to Heaven." What well-known line? You can't assume people have heard the song. Provide the line. 74.140.218.179 12:09, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

message: Although the label for this single is identified many places on the Web as Under the Covers, I'm almost certain that this is incorrect. Under The Covers--according to news items at Yahoo and MTV--is a cover-version label that cashes in when the record company doesn't make a single available. The only official-release single I could find was an import from Phantom Sound & Vision, in a listing at Amazon.com. The actual label for the single is probably either that one or the album label, Interscope Records. If I'm wrong, please correct me, but it seemed to me that Under The Covers was very unlikely to be right. --ShelfSkewed Talk 06:31, 1 December 2007 (UTC)

message: The Article says that the song was #137 on Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Songs of All Time - yet on the original version of the list from 2004, the spot was taken by Eleanor Rigby, and on the revised version from 2010, #137 was Your Song. In neither version of the list does All Star even appear, as a matter of fact, no Smash Mouth song does. Is there an earlier version of the list, I'm not aware of? 87.60.112.87 (talk) 12:02, 18 June 2014 (UTC)

message: I don't mean this as a joke, it seems the song has been a very popular meme on youtube etc. Should this be mentioned?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.117.92.231 (talk) 06:54, 9 February 2017 (UTC)
replies: text:  I agree. There have been many videos, possibly even hundreds (google "all star but" on Youtube). Some of these videos have viewing figures of 2+ million . Perhaps an extra bullet point under the Pop Culture section to mention the widespread editing and remixing of it as a meme? --Melonbob (talk) 07:48, 13 February 2017 (UTC)

message: DBZFan30 As I told you on your talkpage, I removed it due to Wikipedia:Trivial mentions. Wikipedia policy and sentiment has come against popular culture sections of articles. I notice this is the bulk of your edit history. AllMusic is a good source when it is about the music, not a WP:RS when it's about WP:TRIVIA. If this is your continuing habit of editing, get used to editors removing such trivia. You should read Wikipedia:"In_popular_culture"_content#Good_and_bad_popular_culture_references. At any rate, it's time for you to stop.--Kintetsubuffalo (talk) 05:52, 5 March 2017 (UTC)
