  • of original hook, ALT1, ALT3, and ALT4. Dates and lengths all good and no indications of close paraphrasing found in parts I could check. Half the article's sources are behind paywalls so AGF for the portions I could not verify. Problem with ALT2 is the hook claims only names are used in the song lyrics but the article add the words "and" and "big" to the names. --Allen3 talk 01:12, 14 September 2012 (UTC)
  • Heh, well I guess ALT2 could be rewritten to "consists primarily of" or "consists only of the names... and the words 'and' and 'big'", or something else like that if that would make the best hook. But there's four more good ones there to choose from. Thanks. – Muboshgu (talk) 01:42, 14 September 2012 (UTC)
