Interesting enigmatic song, on fine sources, no copyvio obvious. I prefer the original hook, unusual! The rhymes don't really get to the core of the song. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 20:11, 21 August 2022 (UTC)

• Infobox: shouldn't the release date be 1991 instead?
  • I may be missing something - it's showing March 26, 1991. BennyOnTheLoose (talk) 19:44, 11 September 2022 (UTC)
• "his Gospel Tour which concluded" comma before "which"
  • Amended. BennyOnTheLoose (talk) 19:44, 11 September 2022 (UTC)
• Any specific reason why the song was cut from Shot of Love?
  • Heylin's Behind the Shades has quite a lot on the changing tracklist, but offers no reasons. I had a look at some other sources. In Time Out of Mind: The Lives of Bob Dylan (2013), Ian Bell wrote that the probable reason for a new tracklist was to keep the album's running time to 40 minutes, commenting: "Why songs such as 'Caribbean Wind' or 'Angelina' had to make way for the likes of the strange, half-hearted 'Lenny Bruce' remains one of the biggest mysteries. The artist has not explained himself." I've added a line into the article. BennyOnTheLoose (talk) 19:44, 11 September 2022 (UTC)
• "Trager also notes that" past tense for consistency
  • Amended. BennyOnTheLoose (talk) 19:44, 11 September 2022 (UTC)
• "Author Jim Beviglia thinks that" ditto
  • Amended. BennyOnTheLoose (talk) 19:44, 11 September 2022 (UTC)
• Link rhyming pattern
  • Amended. BennyOnTheLoose (talk) 19:44, 11 September 2022 (UTC)
• "included the track in 71st place" would be useful for us to know how many songs in total was in the list
  • Amended. BennyOnTheLoose (talk) 19:44, 11 September 2022 (UTC)

Whoops, I misread the release date as 1981. My bad, Ippantekina (talk) 04:14, 12 September 2022 (UTC)

Putting this  On hold-- Ippantekina (talk) 16:44, 11 September 2022 (UTC)

Side note; I'd appreciate very much if you could take a look at my current GAN for The Story of Us (song). Cheers, Ippantekina (talk) 16:45, 11 September 2022 (UTC)

Many thanks, Ippantekina. I've responded above. Let me know if anything else is required. Regards, BennyOnTheLoose (talk) 19:44, 11 September 2022 (UTC)
