[edit] Everyone's perky and everyone's uptight

Hey, Candy!

I thought that I may as well write my response to you here, because firstly, it's sort of out of place on the main page and secondly, it's easier to see when one has been contacted with this. Yes, I wrote MTV Makes Me Want to Smoke Crack, and indeed a whole bunch of other Beck articles, mostly because I was despondent about how the Pussy Cat Dolls or Mariah Carey, or I don't know, some other anti-feminist slease, get huge articles despite their lyrical inanity and musical derivativeness, whereas there's Beck with stubs for songs that could inspire hours of analysis... so I started what has been, lamentably, mostly a one-person attempt to build some Beck pages that are more than two-line explanations of when it was released and what score it got in the Top 40. MTV is quite an early article (my third on Beck, after writing something huge about the Banjo Story, which got deleted, and then replaced with something 1/10th the size. Fun!) and thus quite bad example of what I've been doing... the latest that I wrote was Devils Haircut.

Anyhow, (sorry about that, I have rather the neurotic habit of wittering on.) you are totally right that the article on MMMWTSC (I hate acronyms, but there goes) is wrongly written. It's a long time ago, but I am quite sure that I created the page with the correct title, and I think that it was moved to 'wanna' by someone... after all, if you note, the correct spelling is given on the first line of the article. Anyhow, it would make perfect sense to move the article to its proper name; I or you can do it, I don't mind. Anyone who would object is slightly off their orbit, but I doubt that anyone would really notice.

Sorry about that epistle. My best wishes,

[edit] Loser

...was released for airplay in late 93, but the physical release on CD (this being WAY before digital releases) was on January 18, 1994, therefore, making it a 1994 song. I have added the source. BGC (talk) 22:53, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

Okay, gotcha. See my comment on your user page. However, the Loser record article says it was recorded in '93. I am sure it was '91 or '92. I will check further (unless you do it first). Candy (talk) 23:06, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Duncan and Blake

I'll try and keep an eye on them. It's not vandalism, at least not all of it, but some of it is unsourced. Thanks for letting me know! Redrocket (talk) 05:16, 3 April 2008 (UTC)
