Talk:I Can See Clearly Now

Untitled

Regarding films that this song has been in, I think it is in the opening sequence of Grosse Point Blank (1997) with John Cusack. Bsiatadshmia 06:18, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

Lyrics

Do you think we should have the lyrics somewhere on this page? Ichliebezuko (talk) 16:09, 18 March 2008 (UTC)

That would be a copyright violation. -- Jeandré, 2008-03-22t19:59z

Oh. I saw some of the other song articles had links to a site that would give you the lyrics. Would that be okay? Ichliebezuko (talk) 16:09, 26 March 2008 (UTC)

I'm not sure, if an official site with permission hosts the lyrics that would be okay; but lyrics sites usually do not have permission. A few lines could be defended as fair use. -- Jeandré, 2008-04-06t11:06z, -- Jeandré, 2008-04-06t11:13z

A friend of mine used to think the lyrics were: "I can see Deirdre now Lorraine has gone". —Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.192.123.114 (talk) 11:34, 15 April 2010 (UTC)

Who is the backing band on this song?

The second paragraph of the music and lyrics section suggests that some people think Bob Marley wrote or recorded the song, "...possibly based on the fact that The Wailers were the backing band on Nash's original recording...Nash wrote this song himself and recorded it in London with members of The Average White Band."

So who played on this track, the Wailers or the Average White Band? Both? Mainly the Wailers with help from a few members of AWB? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.164.128.78 (talk) 00:08, 17 May 2011 (UTC)

Is this still a stub-class article?

Perhaps a promotion to a start-class article would be justified? Schuy B. (talk) 20:48, 24 December 2013 (UTC)

Irrelevant?

"Cool Runnings, also known in France as Rasta Rockett" - what is the relevance of the French translation of the film title? In Czech it's called Kokosy na Snehu, but I wouldn't expect to read that in an article about the song. HairyDan (talk) 06:32, 25 June 2014 (UTC)

Why chrono and alphabetised?

I put the dated versions first and in chronological then alphabetical order. Why? Previous versions may influence the future versions, it shows the history and spread of interpretation. Alphabetical, people, given names are not how one lists people, it is international conventional to list by family name then given. Not all the world no, but most, and certainly in Anglophone cataloguing.

A request: if you (yes you) could find the date of a version and then slot it into the appropriate place, that would be useful. Thanks Brunswicknic (talk) 09:21, 18 July 2017 (UTC)
