[edit] Two versions of lyrics?

I had always heard the key line of this song as an' it's startin' to feel good, but lately it seems to be rendered as don't it feel good?. Were there two releases by any chance? Google confirms I'm not the only one who heard the (clearly superior) "startin'" lyric. --Trovatore 07:22, 16 November 2007 (UTC)

Maybe not as superior as you thought. AmIRight Misheard Lyrics:[[1]]

[edit] Popular belief?

"Contrary to popular belief.... " This whole paragraph in the first part of the main article seems pretty useless. There are no references to it being a "popular belief" and doesn't really have much to do with the article in general. 99.240.198.86 (talk) 20:14, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

I removed some of the poor wording referenced in the issue above. It is a useful paragraph simply to disambiguate the information. Nickmalik (talk) 18:19, 8 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Other cover versions

The ones mentioned in the article aren't a complete list. There have been a couple of punk/ska versions of the song floating around on Limewire and other file sharing programs that have yet to list the actual artists of those covers and are often mislabeling them.

[edit] removed some Hurricane Katrina uncited references

The paragraph in the Hurricane Katrina section that noted that the song was widely played in the Gulf Coast area after Hurricane Katrina asked for citations for many months. Since no citations were provided, I removed the statement. The statement that MSNBC named their coverage "Katrina and the Waves" has no basis in fact. No citation was provided. It would be worthy of a lawsuit if it were true, so I'd be surprised if this were more than an urban legend. No citations were given for "headlines" that refered to the rock group, although a small number of blog entries are easy to find. I removed that sentence as well.

There really does appear to be very little connection between this article and the Hurricane. Nickmalik (talk) 18:15, 8 June 2008 (UTC)
