Is the comparison to Weird Al really appropriate? Deface the Music (more a Beatles tribute) sounds nothing like his song parodies.75.68.6.81 01:59, 31 December 2006 (UTC)Reply

  • No its not at all. There's no correlation from Utopia and Todd Rundgren to Weird Al at all. Utopia wasn't a parody band. I'll re-write this section. --10stone5 20:26, 1 August 2007 (UTC)Reply

"This theme resonated with its utopian fan-base -- a mix of older Rundgren fans and Utopia's own starry-eyed followers, who tried to carry hippie idealism on through the barren early-1980s."

Does this strike anyone else as non-neutral editorializing? MFNickster 21:50, 2 December 2007 (UTC)Reply

"Feet Don't Fail Me Now" edit

The link in this article for the song/video "Feet Don't Fail Me Now" is incorrect. The destination of the link has nothing to do with this topic. The link should be deleted, or else it should link to a new entry.

  • How can "Feet Don't Fail Me Now" be one of the original videos on MTV in 1981 if the song wasn't released on vinyl until September 1982? Seems unlikely it would be a video a full year in advance. Calliaume (talk) 14:07, 3 October 2012 (UTC)Reply

Wilcox Edit edit

I rewrote this sentence - "Wilcox composed the ringwalk music used by the current No. 1 ranked boxer in the world, Manny Pacquiao." As there is no indication that "current" is actually current I removed that inference. My feeling is a word like current is without meaning in an enduring encyclopedic article such as this one. If anyone feels this edit to be in error, feel free to revert.THX1136 (talk) 15:27, 24 September 2014 (UTC)Reply
