Who sang the lead vocals?
In Do It Again (Steely Dan song), it says that Donald Fagen was on electric piano, organ and vocals but when performed on the "Midnight Special", Donald Fagen is playing the keyboards while someone else is singing. I don't think that Donald Fagen sang the song. I do believe he played the Wurlitzer electric piano and also playing the "plastic organ" (a Yamaha YC-30) but the voice DOESN'T SOUND like Donald Fagen and I know that statement is technically original research which must not be used when editing articles. But could someone please tell me who REALLY sang the song? Than you.--Kevjgav (talk) 09:59, 13 October 2015 (UTC)

LYRICS section is unsupported opinion
It should be noted that the LYRICS section is unsupported opinion. No references are included, and the first verse of the song, which has nothing to do with addiction, is conveniently ignored. Every point of this section may be readily disputed (for starters, 'go back, Jack' may simply be an expression spoken to anyone -- much like 'Ready, Freddy?' -- thus the verses are not necessarily sung to the same man), and the lyrics may be interpreted, as in many Steely Dan songs, in a completely different way. In the absence of verifiable quotes from the songwriters themselves, the 'opinion' should be replaced with the actual lyrics. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Poluistor~enwiki (talk • contribs) 18:52, 4 May 2016 (UTC)
 * I tend to agree, so I have added a "citation needed" tag. We can't just replace this section with the lyrics, as they are under copyright, but we do need some sources, preferably quoting Fagen himself. In the absence of these, the interpretation of a notable critic or commentator might do. But without anything, it will need to go. I wonder have you looked for anything suitable? Thanks.
