Could this be written any more poorly?

"This SONG was very much ahead of its time. This SONG used many different effects in its recording. One big stand-out characteristic of this SONG is the ***constant_presence*** of the cow bell that is ***present_during_the_entire*** SONG. It is used in a manner which produces a "tick-tock" sound ***through_the_entire_SONG***."

Five uses of "song" within four shoddy sentences. Three repetitions of phrases that all mean 'constant presence' -- two of which are in the same one line.

Maybe...? "This track was considered to be ahead of its time using many different effects in making the final recording. One particular characteristic is the use of cow bell through the entire piece. The playing of alternating high and low tones produced a "tick-tock" sound bringing out the "Time" aspect of the tune's title." Frankly tho, I think this still doesn't work so well ... between the first sentence compared to the 2nd & 3rd, theses are two different thought developments jammed together -- particularly when later in the article is more of a development on the actual engineering effects that went into giving this piece its charactre as opposed to the tick-tock cow bell. ...in this case, less cow bell please.

[edit] ahead of its time?

I think the bigger issue is not the writing in the article, but: was this really ahead of its time? To me it seems like its more of its time than ahead of it. The full track wasn't released until 1968, right? So 1967's summer of love had already gone by...psychedelic music's popularity was probably at its peak around '68.74.214.101.227 (talk) 02:05, 21 December 2007 (UTC)
