Can someone add something relating to the importance gained due to being used in a MTV jingle in the 80's? Please? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.109.74.220 (talk) 21:34, 20 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

You mean like Marginal Era's "This is Heaven" that was the intro to Radio with Pictures long before it was the genesis to MTV? Now that would be ironic. 20:25, 10 June 2022 (UTC) Fanx (talk) 20:25, 10 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I'm also thinking that we should take out the trivia and add that fact to the beginning of the article, otherwise just start a 'Use in Other Media' section. 4.244.117.140 22:12, 25 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Video[edit]

The article says that the video is set in a garage; to my eye it looks like it's supposed to be a small soundstage (it's very large for a garage). I think the idea is that we're watching the video being filmed from the inside-out. -Ashley Pomeroy (talk) 17:59, 26 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Over-reliance on single source of information.[edit]

This article quotes almost verbatum the first cited source, which is a very positive review. Tjis does not make for a balanced entry. ahpook (talk) 18:26, 29 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

What the song is about[edit]

Hello, I was wondering what this song was about. I tried to find reliable sources but was unable to find them. I found some speculation that it is about a rift bwtween the Pixies as well as that it is making fun of Marquis de Sade but I am not sure if those are necessarily reliable (it is possible Kim Deal might have been joking). Please find a reliable source for this.70.118.40.18 (talk) 21:39, 4 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
