Is it just me, or does this song bear more than a superficial sembelence to Judas Priest's Heart of a Lion?

"Nite"

Should it be said that the spelling of "night" as "nite" in the song's title is a reference to KISS? The (rather famous) song is called Rock and Roll All Nite, and Kiss's music is the same style as Limozeen, so I think that something should be added here, but I don't know (same deal with Nite Mamas).

"Nite" is a pretty common (intentional) misspelling of "night", and is probably not a reference to any one thing. --DorianGray

Breakin' ___ chains

Ok, I definitely hear "my", pronounced more like "meh" as a metalhead might, there. Listen to the "the" in the previous line, then this one. The "th" doesn't happen!

I know Thing and Bazooka disagree, but anyone else hear this? - Qermaq - (^T/C)  22:26, 28 February 2006 (UTC)

I heard "my" at first, but now it seems to alternate between "my" and "the". I can't decide on this one. — Has Matt? (talk) 22:29, 28 February 2006 (UTC)

The DVD says "breaking the chains". --Jay (Talk) 22:31, 28 February 2006 (UTC)

Guitar Hero: '80s edition

This song was confirmed for Guitar Hero Encore: Rocks the '80s: http://www.destructoid.com/guitar-hero-encore-rock-the-80s-final-track-list-announced-33910.phtml http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guitar_Hero:_80s_Edition Doshindude 22:35, 28 June 2007 (UTC)

Because, It's Canon

Should this be moved to Because, It's Midnite (with a comma), which redirects here? It's spelled that way in Guitar Hero Encore: Rocks the 80s and Limozeen vs. Sloshy. I'll admit that song titles aren't always listed correctly in Guitar Hero (they called Nothin' But a Good Time "Ain't Nothin' But a Good Time"), but now that it's appeared in an actual cartoon, it seems intentional. Keep in mind that the Strong Bad Sings CD came out nearly 4 years ago. — Has Matt? (talk) 11:08, 17 September 2007 (UTC)

It's also spelled that way on my MP3 player, and I got it directly off the CD. —Shwoo 11:58, 17 September 2007 (UTC)

That would be the work of the CD ripper program though, which likely downloaded the song titles from a CDDB server somewhere in the Internets. Unfortunately, I don't have the CD box on me, so I can't check how it was punctuated in the liner... --phlip ^T_C 12:25, 17 September 2007 (UTC)

Crimson flows down from the wings of a dove.

How can we be sure this is blood? I think that it is a play on bird down. Like, furry feathers. I dunno. It is hard to say it is a reference, but hard to deny it as well. What do you say? --Jellote 22:52, 30 May 2009 (UTC)

Bring in The Cheat??

Does Limozeen actually sing " Bring in The Cheat, you better cut me some"? I was just wondering. :)

No. Even if I thought it sounded like "Bring in The Cheat" (I don't), the mock karaoke video gives it as "Breaking the chains". --Jay (Talk) 09:24, 30 July 2011 (UTC)

Champagne and Legos

I just went to the Lego Movie 2, and the first song during the end credits (by Beck plus somebody) includes the lines "We gotta bring both sides together / like champagne and leather." I thought hmmm, is that a conscious reference? A quick Google of "champagne and leather" yields pretty much just champagne-colored leather swatches. —AbdiViklas 01:13, 13 February 2019 (UTC)
