"You Can't Kill Me"

[edit]

I wrote (with "You Can't Kill Me" in mind), "…many of their own originals were a little less politically direct, for example alluding to the assassination of gay San Francisco politician Harvey Milk without mentioning him by name." This has been changed to "many of their own originals were powerfully political, for example, "You Can't Kill Me," alluding to the assassination of gay San Francisco politician Harvey Milk." I wish I had a citation on their deliberate choice to keep that song a bit obscure; I have it from "the horse's mouth" (in conversation with Tom Goodkind some time in the mid-to-late 1980s, when they were in Seattle to play at the Bumbershoot festival), but no way to prove that. -- Jmabel | Talk 07:08, August 31, 2005 (UTC)

Wow, almost exactly a year later, someone has anomymously made the same edit. And I've reverted for the same reason. - Jmabel | Talk 06:43, 1 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
