Talk:Love → Building on Fire

Original research: interpretation of lyrics and titles

Talking Heads are notoriously bizarre and it seems inappropriate to attempt an interpretation of their lyrics or titles here. Unless these statements can be verified and citations provided I suggest Wikipedia should "Stop Making Sense" of these words and we should confine ourselves to the facts, and therefore the "Lyrics" and "Later references" sections should be removed.

Covers

I heard Pearl Jam did a cover. This would be of interest to mention. Couldn't immediately find a satisfactory citation but perhaps someone else can? And there may be other covers. PL290 (talk) 08:51, 28 April 2009 (UTC)

Name of song confusion

The article states:

"Love → Building on Fire" is sometimes represented on the internet using the title Love Goes To Building on Fire.
There is some debate among those who feel that this interpretation overreaches.

However, a cursory image search shows that the UK and European 7" releases in 1977 were titled Love Goes To Building On Fire [1] [2] [3] - so it's not a change or interpretation associated specifically with the internet: a European listener would simply know that song as Love Goes To Building on Fire.

Also, on the original double LP of The Name Of This Band Is Talking Heads, the song is titled Building On Fire. Phosph (talk) 14:22, 30 November 2009 (UTC)phosph

Discussion after revert

Please discuss rather than revert a revert.

Shabazz there was factually incorrect info, in fact OR, added based on someone's opinion unsupported by the cited link, as well as deletion of some other material that might be considered OR. So I zapped the new OR, and rezapped the old potential OR for you, even though it's been around as long as I can tell without anyone caring. the new OR had to go tho. 75.80.134.76 (talk) 06:18, 7 July 2010 (UTC)
