[edit] Cultural References

[edit] "He do the song about the knife"

would this be referring to the song "Mack The Knife" ? --RgNet 13:21, 14 March 2007 (UTC)

There's at least one live version (from "On The Night") where he sang it as "He do the song about the six-blade knife", referring to an older Dire Straits song... but my guess is it was originally a reference to Mack the Knife. - furrykef (Talk at me) 20:15, 23 October 2007 (UTC)

I wonder why the hell this is not the "main" Walk Of Life article, not some remake or rip-off by some has-been poptart.

Yes, that's not right. I guess albums top singles. The introduction to this song, particularly the keyboard line, is so instantly recognizable that more should be said about it. I put up one sentence. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.138.42.218 (talk) 13:40, 26 February 2008 (UTC)
