Talk:Tankō Bushi

Comments
This page is wrong. The shrine this song refers to is Miike Mine, not Mitsui. Is this page being vandalized? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 126.253.69.39 (talk) 11:03, 15 January 2013 (UTC)

Miike coal mine is the mine this song refers to, and older recordings say "Miike tanko," not Mitsui. This page is factually incorrect. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 126.253.69.39 (talk) 13:31, 15 January 2013 (UTC)

The references have been reverted. It is indeed true that the song "Tanko Bushi" historically refers to "Miike Mine." If one listens to older recordings of "Tanko Bushi," the lyrics do indeed say "Miike Tanko."KogeJoe (talk) 20:41, 15 January 2013 (UTC)
