Talk:Everybody Hurts

http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio2/soldonsong/songlibrary/everybodyhurts.shtml —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 86.130.40.246 (talk) 22:41, 23 January 2007 (UTC).

Question on a possible addition to the information on the main page:
I know exactly where the music video for "Everybody Hurts" was shot, because it was shot in my hometown, on a stretch of highway I would have been on had the video been shot in mid-January, say, instead of the first week of January. My late father and I used to drive down that stretch of highway on our way over from our home to his workplace and my high school, respectively, and the video shoot and single release both took place when I was a freshman in high school, so the surroundings are very familiar to me.

Cobain
i would like it changed that kurt cobain may have been listening to this song before killing himself? where is the proof? and where is the proof that he killed himself? i will remove it myself if it is not removed

I removed the Cobain "Suicide Song" note as it has no citation and as such has no place, whether speculative or not. --Fantailfan 16:55, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

New Zealand Singles Chart
Not sure why this page has been locked, but the single has debuted on the NZ Chart (www.rianz.org.nz/chart.asp) at number 17 this week. Not expecting it to rise. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 125.237.145.119 (talk) 12:25, 23 February 2010 (UTC)

"Gospel" and "soft rock"
Are there any sources for these genres? 204.169.28.106 (talk) 18:32, 11 February 2016 (UTC)

As of January 2020 "gospel" has been added as one of the genres, the source being a spin review in which the song is lauded as "white anxiety-gospel". Due to the negative and sarcastic nature of the review, the reviewer does not literally mean gospel. The song lacks nearly all of the characteristics of gospel music. The gospel tag is being removed for accuracy. Fabian Caldwell (talk) 16:32, 8 April 2020 (UTC)

Lacking chorus and bridge
Maybe guitarist Peter Buck commented that, but anybody can see (or hear) the structure of the song:
 * Intro D G 2x
 * Verse D G with vocals
 * Chorus Em A 3x with vocals
 * Verse D G ...
 * Chorus Em A
 * Bridge F# Bm
 * B-part C G Am
 * Verse D G ...
 * Chorus Em A
 * Outro D G with vocals, the instrumental voicings get enriched --Areta87 (talk) 22:15, 10 May 2020 (UTC)
