Album cover origins[edit]

Wasn't this a cover of 1950s Educational video? or was that just a rumour? if someone can confirm that, it should be added. 80.229.155.137 14:31, 22 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The Girl I Left Behind Me[edit]

The tune is obviously based on the folk song The Girl I Left Behind Me. I think there should be some meantion of that. 67.141.95.104 (talk) 05:03, 26 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Lyrics source[edit]

It doesn't belong in the article, really, but The Golden Guide Stars was They Might Be Giants' source for the lyrics "The sun is a mass of incandescent gas, a gigantic nuclear furnace were hydrogen is built into helium at a temperature of millions of degrees ...". —Preceding unsigned comment added by 198.107.160.107 (talk) 00:13, 31 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

This comment was on the talk page of Golden Guide. I think this might actually be a nice fact to add to both articles if sourced.Mercurywoodrose (talk) 05:06, 6 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
