- Comment - almost all occurrences of the phrase refer to the title of a famous song by Nina Simone. It's mentioned in her article and a few others on WP. Her article is well-done and has 150 edits, so I'm not suggesting the song deserves its own article, but a redirect is worth considering. One curiosity: A search for the phrase as an artist on All Music redirects to an older blues musician, Mississippi John Hurt. I can't figure-out why this is though - Google finds no significant coincidences of "John Hurt" and "Mississippi goddamn" that don't mention "Nina Simone", nor does his All Music or WP page mention the phrase. ×Meegs 04:40, 28 December 2005 (UTC)
- Not to mention a notable band, The Hidden Cameras, titled one of their albums in a similar fashion to this song. Keep and expand, or redirect to the proper musician. --badlydrawnjeff 14:06, 28 December 2005 (UTC)
