[edit] Removed for cause

I took this out:

Although his songs talk about relationships as misery, his attitude in the song is not upset or miserable.^[1]

The remark makes little sense so I replaced it with some actual discussion. Whatever it is supposed to mean is not supported by anything in the Arnold Shaw book, which makes only a passing reference to the song. Ortolan88 19:59, 18 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Removed from article page -- this needs its own article

The same title was used for a book by Darryl Cumber Dance, Honey Hush: An Anthology of African American Women's Humor. ISBN 0393318184. Dance identifies the term as "a 'playful entreaty' that black women use to encourage each other or to express disbelief in private conversations when swapping jokes and tall tales." This needs to be in a separate article. This article is about the song. Mattisse(talk) 22:00, 18 November 2006 (UTC)
