Talk:Nebraska (album)

"Homage" is too long
I recently made some edits to this article, and I noticed that the "homage" section is way too long, as it seems to list anything and anyone who had something to do with "Nebraska". Can someone shorten it down to the most essential songs? I can do it, but perhaps I should leave it to someone who knows better? --Soren84 (talk) 07:31, 22 October 2013 (UTC)

Highway patrolman
Article says

" Criminal behavior continues as a theme in the song "Highway Patrolman": even though the protagonist works for the law, he lets his brother escape after he has shot someone (this became the basis for the Sean Penn-directed film The Indian Runner)."

thats false -- state trooper stopped at the line because that was where his jurisdiction ended - his brother drove to the line to get out of the state - the state he was in couldn't follow him over that line

it's only a story someone putting political motives onto it -- saying the highway patrolman is a criminal he isn't the whole essence of the song is that the highway patrolman is a law abiding man but he has a bad brother - he supports him as far as he can

to say that he is a criminal is wrong and somewhat politically motivated the song says the highway patrolman has to stop at the state line just as in dukes of hazzard he can't follow him over it into another state (different jurisdiction) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.43.159.228 (talk) 18:03, 4 March 2012 (UTC)
