Individual pages
editDo you think that 1234 and My Moon My Man should split off into their own pages? They're popular enough, and 1234 has charted on the Billboard Hot 100, so I think it's only fair. 76.31.11.113 14:21, 7 October 2007 (UTC)
Upper Class Prostitute?
editThe WP article about the song says "It was first recorded by folklore researcher Herbert Halpert on May 13, 1939.[2] Halpert was compiling a series of field recordings for the Library of Congress in Byhalia, MS, when he ran across Walter Shipp, a minister, and his wife Mary, a choir director of a local church. Halpert recorded Shipp's daughters, Katherine and Christine, singing a sparse version of "Sea Lion Woman" that defined the basic rhymes and rhythm of the song. Two weeks later the song was covered by musicologist and folklorist John Lomax." I don't know whether it refers to an upper-class prostitute or not, but I think the suggestion needs backing up Cooke (talk) 12:02, 24 September 2010 (UTC)
- The lyrics of "See Line Woman", available here, confirm the prostitute assertion. I added a reference to them and removed the Template:confusing (talk · links · edit) template. --Mareklug talk 05:50, 8 November 2011 (UTC)

"Sealion" vs. "Sea Lion Woman"
editTrack 6 on the album is titled "Sealion." Even though it's based on Nina Simone's "Sea Lion Woman," it is not a straight cover, and apparently Feist has changed the name for her version. Seems like the same situation as her version of "Inside and Out" from Let It Die, where the original Bee Gees version was named "Love You Inside Out." Fubaz 17:52, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

The song is definately Sealion
editI have feist's album and the song is listed as "Sealion", not "Sea Lion Woman". Or you could look on iTunes. But, i own the physical album and the song is called "Sealion" FOR SURE! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.127.193.43 (talk) 21:47, 7 August 2008 (UTC)
