Talk:Magic Dance/Archive 1

• The description of this article somewhat flounders off point, and becomes a description of the scene in the Labyrinth film. I think most of the description can be salvaged to describe the song's meaning and lyrical banter, but I believe it should be revised to more accurately reflect it as an article for the song. For instance, there is no reason to mention Sarah. The castle is of no consequence. Jareth should not be "played" by Bowie, but "sung". Toby can just be referred to as the baby from the song or specifically named after he is identified as the baby, as there is no mention of his name in the song.--Photoactivist (talk) 01:49, 5 December 2012 (UTC)

• Might want to point out that the "You remind me of a man..." dialog at the beginning was copied from a nearly identical dialog between Cary Grant and Shirley Temple in The Bachelor and the Bobby-Soxer (1947). Dekkerdreyer 18:52, 8 April 2007 (UTC)
  • I am pretty sure that "You remind me of the man..." was an old voodoo chant and did not originate in a 1940's movie.--unknown

This... page... seems somewhat silly, but I do not know exactly how. --Sum0 00:06, 30 December 2005 (UTC)

Over-analyzed... this needs to have actual data, not a complex interpretation built on viewer opinion... Mikeguy 06:41, 22 February 2006 (UTC)

Okay

Okay... I think that should be a start.
