Talk:Three Little Pigs (song)

It should be noted that this song is a cover of the same-titled song by Mucky Pup, featured on their 1989 album 'A Boy in a Man's World'.

I have seen a lot of sources say that Maynard James Keenan is the falsetto backing vocals, this should be discussed and rectified. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.181.212.8 (talk) 12:53, 24 December 2009 (UTC)

Ah, no. While they have the same subject, and some similar wording, the similarities are right out of the original fable, so that doesn't constitute a 'cover' by any means of the word. 72.209.187.146 (talk) 22:13, 10 February 2019 (UTC)

Different Songs

"Three Little Pigs" was written by Marc Levinthal and Bill Manspeaker, they are different songs, from the same story. Skeletor2112 04:48, 16 June 2006 (UTC)

Add Hair metal as a genre to this song?

Hi fellow editors, want to make sure it's ok to add the genre of hair metal to this page.

Referred to directly on this entertainment article: Late-Stage Hair Metal Was a Hell of a Thing (pajiba.com)

Quote "Just as the hair metal scene was starting to give way to grunge, a fourth wave rolled in and tried to capitalize on the dying hair metal scene with a combination of guitar and gimmick — it was largely a bunch of one-hit wonders and Dr. Demento detritus. It was these bands that came to mind this morning for reasons that I cannot explain. There was, for instance, Steelheart, which was a sort of hair metal Celine Dion, just atrocious music belted out by a guy with an insane metal falsetto. There was also White Trash, which combined hair metal and ska. But the three one-hit wonders from that fourth wave I remember most fondly were the following: Green Jellÿ, a sort of shitty Gwar (that originally went under the name Green Jell-O until Kraft Foods threatened to sue them) that actually featured, at one time, a couple of members of Tool before they formed Tool (including Maynard James Keenan). They had a song about the Three Little Pigs. It was, inexplicably, a huge hit both on MTV and on the rock charts."

This seems to be a direct reference of this song being a part of this genre. Happy to discuss! Thanks! AgentKozak (talk) 17:40, 2 May 2023 (UTC)
