Fair use rationale for Image:Lullaby album cover.jpg
editImage:Lullaby album cover.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Can someone please add this?
editCan someone who understands the formatting please add the following? The US CD single (9 66664-2) should have its own listing, as its tracks differ from the vinyl 12-inch (under which it is currently listed) as well as all the others. The correct track list, taken from the CD single in front of me, is: 1. Lullaby (Remix) 2. Lullaby (Extended Remix) 3. Homesick (Live Version) 4. Untitled (Live Version)

String Section
editWho did the string section heard on this song? Was it real strings (if so, state which orchestra)?
Meaning of song and lyrics
editThe lyrics of this song beg an 'Intrepretation' section if nothing else. While, for my own reasons, this song might appear on its face as a description of opiate withdrawal or a pleading for its ending, I don't presume to say: this is the song's meaning. Still, in two decades of living as a junkie on and off the streets of the southern US, I myself have never heard a dissenting opinion. Really, I don't care, but for the fact that many other songs have sections about their possible, proven, or outspoken meanings; as a hit for its time, I think this song deserves similar treatment. Were it not for my difficult in interpreting the song any other way than that to which I've been accustomed to perceive it, I'd add the section myself. But, it also deserves encyclopedic treatment. Indeed, many songs by this band and others are relevant as articles in their own right: but speaking towards this particular song, I think it deserves a bit more treatment as to the meaning of its content. 75.107.0.39 (talk) 06:50, 5 May 2011 (UTC)
- Heard this song on the radio this week where it was introduced for a whole minute with a backstory that The Cure really wrote it as a song about a known child molester in the 1980s UK who used to dress all in black, burglarize random kids bedrooms at night as a cat burglar to do his deeds, and that was nicknamed "spiderman" by the local Yellow Press for wearing all black plus his amazing ability to climb facades and come and go without a sound. --79.193.63.236 (talk) 19:39, 8 November 2012 (UTC)
