OVERALL REVIEW

After reviewing this article thoroughly, I have decided to put the article on hold at this time. There are many spots where there are specific facts without cited references. Also, there a few minor mistakes affecting the prose quality of this article. I will give you the general seven days to fix these mistakes and/or debate the ones you believe do not affect GA status. - Rp0211 ^(talk2me) 18:18, 14 July 2011 (UTC)

Sorry for not replying sooner. I didn't see your comments on my watchlist, so I didn't know you responded on my talk page. Anyway, since all issues have been addressed, I feel confident to put this article in good article status. Congratulations and keep up the good work you do. - Rp0211 ^(talk2me) 01:35, 16 July 2011 (UTC)

Has there ever been a notion on the keyboard riff, which is presented in the intro and goes through the song, resembles quite a lot the intro of The Shadows' instrumental piece Wonderful Land ? Noseball (talk) 09:23, 8 March 2015 (UTC)
