Welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for your contributions. I am glad to see that you are discussing a topic. However, as a general rule, talk pages such as Talk:We Built This City are for discussion related to improving the article in specific ways based on reliable sources and the project policies and guidelines, not for general discussion about the topic or unrelated topics, or statements based on your thoughts or feelings. If you have specific questions about certain topics, consider visiting our reference desk and asking them there instead of on article talk pages. Thank you. Sum mer PhD v2.0 01:52, 20 July 2019 (UTC)

Oh really?

yes, I can see what's up there is fully sourced and not based on opinion, like this:

That's because the correct lyrics are:

"...Marconi plays La Bamba..."

Watch the video. You can even see them singing the syllables.

Are you really this stupid? Seriously? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.171.129.68 (talk) 03:22, 22 September 2010 (UTC)

This is actually true, it IS indeed "La Bamba", therefore the whole thing with the Blender quote referencing some miss-heard lyrics is pretty ridiculous, like including a quote based on miss-heard lyrics of Manfred Mann's "blinded by the light", it should probably be removed.OzoneO (talk) 19:16, 3 December 2011 (UTC) I think you need to read "The Saucy Vixen of Life". In this post (http://saucyvixen.blogspot.com/2007/04/marconi-plays-mamba.html) she says "But what about this mamba thing? Most people think it's a dance. But it's not. The mamba is the most deadly type of snake. Ever. Seriously. I'm not making this up. The mamba is a snake. So perhaps Starship f'd up and meant to say "mambo." But come now... a band so brilliant as to use the phrase "ship of fools"? (Note that the band didn't write this song. Elton John's longtime collaborator Bernie Taupin wrote the lyrics.) No way. "Mamba" could not have been a mistake.



But thanks for correcting me.
