Talk:Anna (Go to Him)

Head cold
The "head cold" comment and the passive voice ("can be heard") comment doesn't improve the article. It's uncited, for starters, and WP:OR. We don't have a non-head cold studio version for comparison, and AFAIK no professional reviewer has mentioned that Lennon's voice sounds affected by his head cold. There is verifiable evidence that he had a cold but that's different. The opinion formed by what a WikiPedia editor based on what he/she hears is irrelevant in most cases. If the comment stays it should be supported by a citation and the sentence improved. Personally, I'd remove it, but I've done that once already and I don't care enough to keep doing so.

The remark about John's cold affecting Lennon's voice is still here, it's still unsupported by the cited source, and it's still awkwardly written. 71.215.84.21 (talk) 23:06, 29 January 2014 (UTC)

Cultural references
There's an episode of "Married With Children" in which this song is the leit motiv. I think this should be included in the article. http://www.tv.com/married-with-children/oldies-but-young-uns/episode/28882/summary.html —Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.164.164.164 (talk) 07:01, 15 September 2010 (UTC)


 * I have added back in the episode to this article, including a citation to reliable source that I hope is sufficient for it to stick. I understand some editors here are frustrated by garbage being dumped into Popular culture sections. I am no fan of such things. However, if there is one legitimate popular cultural reference to this song then it's the Married with Children episode. MwC was a hugely popular show. This episode was at the height of its popularity. A lot of people saw it. I would presume many fans of the show now search for this song in an attempt to refresh their memory of a funny episode now more than a quarter century old. And like Al Bundy many may not be sure of the correct title, even after seeing it. He was humming "hmmm, hmmm, him" the whole time afterall. In fact, the idea of a song title, that is different than its hook, escaping one's memory, is part of the joke. It's not unreasonable to assume at least some readers of this page suffer similar uncertainties, which are immediately cleared when seeing the 'In popular culture' section. 68.187.249.27 (talk) 22:52, 26 August 2018 (UTC)
