Talk:Matthew Sweet

atheist? under other work?
Why is "Sweet is an atheist." listed in the "Other Work" section? Also, checking with the reference listed - does his statement make him an atheist? That is, has he rejected theism, or said plainly that theistic deities do not exist? I'm going to remove the reference until someone has a definitive source for the tidbit of information. --74.179.112.171 (talk) 23:08, 26 November 2009 (UTC)

I'm sure there are more soundtrack and compilation tracks, but that was all I could think of.

Sweet used to play bass and provide backing vocals for Lloyd Cole; both on the album Lloyd Cole and Don't Get Weird on me Babe.

Seems odd that this doesn't mention his appearing on the "Singles" soundtrack. I'd always assumed that was where he first captured a large mainstream audience, and what drove Girlfriend so far up the charts. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.10.166.63 (talk) 13:44, 14 April 2008 (UTC)

This article seems to omit Sweet's participation in the 2003 "Thorns" CD by Aware records. It's mentioned in a separate Wikipedia article. Mouillebarbe (talk) 23:38, 10 October 2009 (UTC)

Can someone try and get a better photo of him, cos frankly, the one being used is nightmarish! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Buddhafella (talk • contribs) 18:21, 1 April 2015 (UTC)

Amen! It makes him looks like the villain in a slasher film! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.213.13.81 (talk) 20:47, 24 October 2019 (UTC)
