Removed this from the article: "Also approximately forty three to forty six seconds into the recording a sound clip is heard in the background which is relatively similar to that of the "error" sound which is used in the Linux package KDE, more confirmation is needed." If 'more confirmation is needed,' then this can stay on the talk page until that confirmation is found. --64.107.192.18 00:42, 26 February 2006 (UTC)

It's false, the sound is just a bass riff. 24.211.23.77 04:09, 12 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Inuyasha

Can someone please tell me the episodes of Inuyasha that have Basket Case in them? Is that really true?

Yup it is (apparently), or else it may have been a fan online digitally adding it, as I found this online.mikey 23:35, 20 July 2006 (UTC)

No it's not. They were music videos that you mistaked for actual episode clips, LOL.

[edit] Gender Ambiguity

Careful listeners note that Billie Joe's vocals feature an interesting juxtaposition. He "went to a shrink...she says it's lack of sex that's bringing me down," but in the next line, he "went to a whore, he said my life's a bore, so quit my whining 'cause it's bringing her down" This could be clever choice of words conveying the fact that Billie Joe's anxiety has so thoroughly disturbed his mind that he accidentally mixes up their genders.

Are there any articles or interviews addressing this quote? This seems like it might be a reference to transseuxality and/or Armstrong's purported bisexuality. - LeaHazel 13:13, 25 August 2006 (UTC)
