Talk:Lord, Send Me an Angel

Stub Class
I've removed the stub status from this page - I've been working on expanding a few of The White Stripes' singles pages and though no doubt more could be done to this page (can't it always?) it's reasonably exhaustive. Fifty ways (talk) 18:47, 27 November 2008 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Lord, Send Me an Angel.jpg
Image:Lord, Send Me an Angel.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 05:56, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

Major Changes
I've just added significant detail about the lyrics and also fixed the bias towards The White Stripes (it even claimed it was a song by them). So this article's mostly new now - changes welcome - I'll check up in a couple of weeks. Fifty ways (talk) 19:20, 1 November 2008 (UTC)

Having just listened to "Lord" and "Ticket Agent" side by side I don't see how the claim that they are essentially the same song with different lyrics is in any way supportable. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2001:4898:80E8:B:0:0:0:652 (talk) 19:30, 11 May 2018 (UTC)

Lyrical Analysis
I am not familiar with the White Stripes, but I am a student of early blues and a fan of Mr. McTell. I have changed the word "races" in the analysis of the lyrics to "complexions." The categorization of skintone amongst African Americans by the colors black, brown, and yellow (also red in some regions) was a common motif in the blues. Blues often made reference to this sort of intraracial politics. The frequent reference to "browns" in blues lyrics comes from this categorization. -- Greenmango (talk) 07:22, 12 January 2009 (UTC)

Three Blue Teardrops / Rustbelt trio
There's song with the same title but it seems to have different lyrics. Does anyone know if they are in any way related? Lafiestanoesparalosfeos (talk) 12:40, 11 March 2009 (UTC)
