Song/Band[edit]

There also is a british music group called Dead Eyes Opened, thus this article should be renamed into Dead Eyes Opened (song). --31.18.133.109 (talk) 04:54, 20 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Background section is currently jumbled[edit]

Just wanted to say that the current Background section is written in a confusing way:

The song includes a spoken word sample, which was credited by Tom Ellard in 2006 to be Edgar Lustgarten in the television series Scales of Justice.^[1] Lustgarten is the narrator, but the sample is from the episode Death on the Crumbles^[2] from the earlier BBC radio series of the same name. The show was based on the 1924 murder of Emily Kaye.^{[citation needed]}

What is meant by this? That Tom Ellard mistakenly quoted the incorrect source of the sample as a TV programme, but in fact the real source of the sample was a radio show? If so, why don't we simply state what the correct source of the sample is, rather than leading with the incorrect information? Does anyone have a reliable source that states what the correct origin of the sample is?

Since many visitors to this page (myself included) would want to know where the sample is from, we could even have a section heading called Sample that clearly gives this information. Stuart mcmillen (talk) 04:39, 28 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
