Does anyone have a source that says track 11 was a hoax? I know I've read this before but there is no source in here and I can't find it anywhere else. Jeffler 12:20, 3 September 2007 (UTC)
The Danger Mouse page claims that Colbert mentioned Danger Mouse on December 12, but this article claims it was the 11. Which is it? MafiaCapo 21:36, 20 January 2007 (UTC)
See http://www.eff.org/IP/grey_tuesday.php for a discussion on which claims EMI actually can lay to the Beatles' portfolio.
I work at the campus radio station, and we apparently have the radio edits of the Grey Album. I noticed on that case track 11 is known as "Lucifer 9," something not seen on any other listing I've found. Can someone back me up on this? -- Billfred 18:06, 8 Nov 2004 (UTC)
Lucifer 9 and Interlude are the same song, I think.

Could somebody who knows fill out the track listing by associating each Grey Album track with the tracks sampled for it? — Gwalla | Talk 19:27, 16 Jan 2005 (UTC)
"Can You Take Me Back" is not officially a song. The fragment on The Beatles is simply part of the "Cry Baby Cry" track. As such, I don't know whether it can be said that "Can You Take Me Back" is being sampled, since, officially, it doesn't exist. Whether the title itself is even accurate cannot be said, let alone he citation of it as a sampled song. - Vague | Rant 08:50, May 4, 2005 (UTC)
-- Perhaps it would be better to use "Can You Take Me Back" as the title; the fragment could just as validly be regarded as a lead-in to "Revolution 9" as a lead-out from "Cry Baby Cry". Or both, in fact. See http://www.recmusicbeatles.com/public/files/awp/cytmb.html
But when you play the tracks, it is officially at the end of the Cry Baby Cry chat, it's just a strange outro to it. I think it should be referred to by the track name "Cry Baby Cry"
Does anyone have the official artwork for the Grey Album? Is there a way for people to know if they have an official copy. There were ONLY 10,000 copies printed.
Does anyone know the BPMs for the black album songs? They should be listed so more people can make their own mixes of the black album.
Does anyone know what Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr, and Yoko Ono think about The Grey Album?

At the beginning of the first track, somebody says something about "I want to dedicate this recording to" something something "history in the making" something something "our generation". Who is speaking, what are they saying exactly and when was that first said? Is it Danger Mouse who is talking there? Or is that a Beatles quote? -- 69.243.255.130 00:05, 21 November 2006 (UTC)
"flinging his wig off"?....I've watched this video several times, and not once did I notice John Lennon and/or the fellow portraying him "flinging his wig off". John Lennon was neither bald, nor balding. The Beatles' moptops were real. (later edit...) okay, when I looked closer, I did see what appeared to be a wig come off the dancer portraying John Lennon -- he didn't "fling it off", however. It fell off. -- Mark Alfred 17:12, 31 March 2007 (UTC)
Should there be a seperate article dedicated to Grey Tuesday, or is the redirect and subarticle enough information? Just something to think about. Diablomarcus 20:17, 20 July 2007 (UTC)
The listed title of track 12 is different on the LP and CD releases. You can see some images at discogs here:
On the cover art of the LP release, track 12 is titled "My 1st Song", see it here: http://www.discogs.com/viewimages?what=R&obid=651575
On the CD inlay for the CD release, track 12 is titled "My First Song", see it here: http://www.discogs.com/viewimages?what=R&obid=330530

Is it really necessary or helpful to the article to have a play by play commentary of the video? Wouldn't it just be more efficient to have an external link to the YouTube video? Diablomarcus 16:50, 24 October 2007 (UTC)
The list of samples has a few non-beatles samples that I'm sure weren't there before. I'm almost positive that they're not there, so unless someone proves otherwise, I'll delete them -- Wifidelity ( talk) 04:32, 16 February 2008 (UTC)
On June 6th 2008 the BBC used part of "Encore" from this album in Alexei Sayle's Liverpool to accompany pictures of the Toxteth riots - which is quite clever when you think about it (Liverpool plus black street culture). But how did/do they go about getting copyright clearance for a record that doesn't legally exist? Is this the BBC's new way of saving money...?
That said, a couple of minutes later they did actually use "Glass Onion" itself.
Is there any reason this would not be in the Jay-Z category? I'm adding that category; If anyone has a rationale not to please let me know. KConWiki ( talk) 05:17, 20 December 2008 (UTC)
Cyberbot II has detected that page contains external links that have either been globally or locally blacklisted. Links tend to be blacklisted because they have a history of being spammed, or are highly innappropriate for Wikipedia. This, however, doesn't necessarily mean it's spam, or not a good link. If the link is a good link, you may wish to request whitelisting by going to the request page for whitelisting. If you feel the link being caught by the blacklist is a false positive, or no longer needed on the blacklist, you may request the regex be removed or altered at the blacklist request page. If the link is blacklisted globally and you feel the above applies you may request to whitelist it using the before mentioned request page, or request it's removal, or alteration, at the request page on meta. When requesting whitelisting, be sure to supply the link to be whitelisted and wrap the link in nowiki tags. The whitelisting process can take its time so once a request has been filled out, you may set the invisible parameter on the tag to true. Please be aware that the bot will replace removed tags, and will remove misplaced tags regularly.
