Talk:Them Heavy People

UK single in 1979

 * Wasn't this a hit single in September 1979 not 1978? I can remember hearing it played constantly on the radio in Britain in September and October 1979.--jeanne (talk) 17:19, 9 October 2008 (UTC)

A tribute to Pink Floyd
I always thought this song was a tribute to Pink Floyd, particularly in regard to David Gilmour having discovered Kate and promoted her to record labels. Is this definitely not the case? Martyn Smith (talk) 20:43, 23 November 2010 (UTC)

I'm pretty sure this song is about the practice of the Church of Scientology. In the city where I'm from long before this song was written the Church had a practice of putting people in a room and having them roll a ball back and forth to each other as a teaching. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.47.152.107 (talk) 16:30, 23 February 2012 (UTC)
