Can anyone else hear parts of 'immigrant song' by Led Zeppelin in this song? Or am i imagining things?

i hear the call of ktulu... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 190.44.206.36 (talk) 18:10, 28 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The chorus part "Possibly I've seen too much..." does have a similar rhythm to "On we sweep, with threshing oar..." from Immigrant song, but that's all I can hear "guy who mentioned it." (you forgot to sign) Voodoowitchdr (talk) 02:15, 6 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

It does sound like the Doom 2 song!![edit]

I noiticed that the first time I heard it. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 24.61.8.71 (talk) 19:55, 8 February 2007 (UTC).[reply]

Horseshit. It sounds nothing alike. dethtoll 01:15, 9 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
It does. And if you think it doesn't then yor kidding yourself. http://doom.wikia.com/wiki/Doom_II_music It's not 100% copy, but certain parts were used for that song. Listen and you will know. Don't kid yourself. 71.172.244.111 02:08, 30 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Much of the music on Doom I % II were actually sampled from real-life heavy metal / hard rock songs, from such bands as Megadeth, Alice In Chains and Slayer. It's not a coincidence, because Robert Prince (the composer, a former lawyer) knew exactly how much of music he can sample and put in his own songs. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.130.22.174 (talk) 23:10, 15 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]


My remasters CD lists only 8 different solo spots, as opposed to the 11 claimed by the article

Music Video[edit]

The article doesn't mention the Hangar 18 music video also made by the band. I believe that it should be added to the article. And to whoever thought they could hear parts of Immigrant Song, you are imagining things. Sigmund1989 11:27 A.M., 30 April 2007 (PDT)

Relevant to the article?[edit]

The song is featured in the video game Guitar Hero II, many regard it as being one of the hardest if not the hardest song on the game because of its fast pace, constant changing of riffs and eleven guitar solos.

I can tell you right now that i know people who would consider Psychobilly Freakout to be the hardest song in the game, and even more who would say Freebird. This is an obvious POV statement and is more relevant in the article about the game itself. Commenting on changes to a song in the game is fine for the song's article but commentary about playing it should be either removed or placed in the article for the game itself. If no one can give me a good reason to keep it i'm gonna delete it. DyloniusFunk 22:33, 13 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It references the songs many solos and tempo. Might as well keep it.

Jordan is the hardest song —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.133.69.233 (talk) 03:17, 13 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Lengthy solos[edit]

"The song is featured in the video game Guitar Hero II. It is considered one of the toughest songs in the main setlist due to its fast speed, tempo changes, and lengthy solos."

This song actually doesn't really have any lengthy solos, does it? It actually has a lot of short or normal length solos. Doppelganger 02:33, 30 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hangar 18 (song)Hangar 18 – Looking at other articles with the name "Hangar 18", I noticed that they are less notable than the song. Google search also offers this as the first option. Вик Ретлхед (talk) 22:31, 5 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • Oppose. The long-term primary topic is the conspiracy theory about supposed UFO evidence, not a relatively recent song. For the record, Google ranked the barely notable film above the Megadeth song in the search results it gave me. 168.12.253.66 (talk) 23:06, 5 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not sure if a single from 1990 is a relatively recent song. And no, the Google search gives the YouTube video ahead of the movie. Not to mention that this article is way more visited than the others.--Вик Ретлхед (talk) 23:15, 5 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
If it's way-more-visited than the film that means the current "(song)" dab is helpful and working well for readers. In ictu oculi (talk) 02:16, 6 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose - the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC is Hangar 18 at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, which allegedly houses evidence from the Roswell UFO incident, all the other titles such as Hangar 18 (film), a 1980 science-fiction film, Hangar 18 (band), a band signed to Definitive Jux, and Hangar 18 (song), a song by Megadeth from Rust in Peace are derivative and less likely search targets. In ictu oculi (talk) 02:15, 6 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose. Removing (song) from a song would not be helpful. I do note the references to WP:PRIMARYTOPIC - a careful reading of that guideline will show that the term used is "may be a primary topic" - there is no compunction to apply a primary topic in every instance and the examples given are significantly primary topics. --Richhoncho (talk) 19:55, 6 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
