What's the wikipedia policy on songs? This entry is basically just lyrics, there's hardly any other information, is it necessary? Also, is it a copyright infringement?-R. fiend 18:31, 28 Jun 2004 (UTC)

The article isn't just basically the lyrics anymore since this comment. BauerPower 17:59, 28 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Drum part copied by Black Crowes?

I just heard the song and I couldn't help seeing strong simularities with the drums of the Black Crowes song 'get your rocks off'. Just me? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.60.105.182 (talk) 13:20, 31 January 2008 (UTC)


[edit] Lyrics gone?

There are no more lyrics. Where did they go?

[edit] Moved from main page

Elvis Presley became a fan of B.T.O. He adopted the motto "takin care of business in a flash" as an homage to this song. He also designed (or had designed for him) a logo with the letters TCB and a lightning bolt for necklaces worn by his entourage. At one time Elvis had invited Robin Bachman and Blair Thornton to Las Vegas to watch one of his concerts. INCORRECT: Elvis had the TCB logo designed in 1970.

I've moved the above from the main page as it looks like someone has put a dispute in the middle of the article. No idea which is correct but may be best to just leave off the page until someone with more knowledge can put something accurate up. ny156uk 21:53, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Notability of Uses

The majority of the instances of this song are very trivial and not notable. This needs attention and I'll see what I can do. First, we need to name the most notable and important recitals of this song in media.

[edit] Alvin and the Chipmunks

There's no citation for it being used by Alvin and the Chipmunks, and I can't find any info online. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.174.62.95 (talk) 12:57, 4 June 2008 (UTC)
