[edit] Lyrics
The page included the lyrics to "Low Bridge." I think the lyrics should be removed because as per Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information. -- danntm 17:47, 8 July 2006 (UTC)

- As a further note, WP:SONG recommends against posting lyrics unless we are certain that the song lyrics are in the public domain. I would like any input, advice anyone could provide. -- danntm 18:32, 9 July 2006 (UTC)

- Because the song was written in 1905, the copyright has expired. All works published in the U.S. before 1923 are now in the public domain. By contrast, Springsteen's recording of the song will be protected by copyright for at least the next 70 years. See Cornell chart of copyright durations.
I think that the lyrics should be included in the article because they help to identify the song. They're short, they're more useful than burdensome, and text is cheap. JD Lisa 04:04, 1 December 2006 (UTC)
