Talk:Home on the Range

Untitled
It is out of place to state an opinion that 'red man' is politically incorrect and then suggest replacement lyrics without entering a full discussion on why it was politically Correct at the time of writing, and listing all of the relevant facts. Maybe add a new section to discuss. I would not cloud the 3-column comparison with these details.

Modified the article, did not remove the footnote, linked to redskin_(slang), and simplified it to be more objective. 67.41.136.51 (talk) 05:37, 16 May 2011 (UTC)

More information about the tune's history needed (I don't mean the lyrics' history)
At least one of the sources gives more information about the tune than is in the article here, and that is needed here.

Speaking of the tune, I discovered a Swedish hymn, copyrighted in 1895, which has a tune remarkably similar to Home on the Range's. The hymn is Fadershjertat står öppet för dig, by Andrew L. Skoog (1856–1934), published in a hymnal entitled Jubelklangen in 1896 (hymn #94). 75.174.102.232 (talk) 03:28, 15 April 2023 (UTC)
