Untitled

"Some get a kick from cocaine" is not a parody line. It's included in several versions, including the one Ella Fitzgerald recorded for The Cole Porter Songbook.--70.113.219.127 18:56, 1 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Lyrics inclusion

While I agree that notable changes to the lyrics over time should be included, I don't believe that the full lyrics text of the song need be included. You're the Top was {prod} tagged for its inclusion of full lyrics text. If nobody gives a good reason to include the full lyrics, I will delete that section, and leave the notable lyrics changes. Comments, please! Abhorsen327 23:05, 28 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Indeed, I would cut all the lyrics except the changed verse. Wikipedia:Lyrics has some things to say about including all the lyrics of a song. — Laura Scudder ☎ 22:51, 19 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Leave the lyrics in-they are half the article for one of the best songs ever. 68.9.173.186 20:33, 9 September 2006 (UTC)Tommy[reply]

Ethel Merman sings the song with "perfume from Spain" instead of that line about cocaine, so somebody do their research and fix the article.

But she certainly also recorded the lyrics about cocaine as well.

In Blazing Saddles, the foreman doesn't ask for a spiritual, although he does sing one. He asks for something racist (and therefore unprintable); whatever way it can be said, it should be accurate. In the pop culture references in Anything Goes, I tried my hand at something; feel free to use it! A laurel and a hearty handshake to you all.

I have to agree. In Blazing Saddles a "nigger work song" was requested. Mel Brooks had problems getting people to use that type of language 30 years ago, but the film was stronger for it. Stick it in quotes and forget about it. The thing you are trying to censor is much stronger if you need to work out what was actually said. 65.29.60.103 00:43, 1 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I Get a Kick out of You → I Get a Kick Out of You – Our house style is to capitalize "the first part of a compound preposition" (MOS:CT). Kotniski (talk) 07:36, 20 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Support as per discussion on Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Albums and WP:Manual_of_Style/Capitalization#Composition_titles, where "...Out of" is actually used as an example of correct capitalization. --Hobbes Goodyear (talk) 09:41, 20 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Dwele?

I took a listen to Dwele's "I Get a Kick Out of You" and it is not the Porter song. I recommend eliminating it from the article, but would rather put it up for talk than make an edit immediately. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tildemanana (talk • contribs) 03:25, 23 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Good catch. The song Kwele sings is just called "Kick Out of You" and was written by Andwele Gardner. I've gone ahead and updated the article. --Hobbes Goodyear (talk) 13:17, 23 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Both Sinatra "post-Hays" versions

I have had to rephrase this section due to the common confusion between the Hays code of 1930 and the Breen Code of 1934.
Regardless, the original Sinatra text was confusing. Only one "post-Hays" version was described, yet Sinatra recorded "both". Did "Hays" here mean 1930, indicating that Sinatra recorded both post-1930 versions (i.e. both cocaine and perfume, but not Lindbergh)?

Hildegard Knef

Sorry, but Hildegard Knef was no "schlager singer". She was a kind of modern chanson singer.--Zibaldone (talk) 21:15, 7 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
