Its long enough and it and the hook are well referenced. Its neutral. The sound file is in the public domain and Earwig and I cannot see any close paraphrasing. The hook is interesting. I would change "... above their head when the words "tall corn" is said during each chorus's last line?" to "... above their head when singing "tall corn" during each chorus?" and I'd add the image of the 1926 record to the article as eye candy, but its fine as it is. Nice work. Victuallers (talk) 13:00, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
