I changed the intro which had said the song was borderline between country and pop. Just because a song is a crossover hit doesn't mean it's any less representative of its genre. The song is quite clearly cowboy country, and has much much less pop influence (if any) than a majority of what's considered country today. ENpeeOHvee 05:43, 16 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Johnny Cash?

Just curious, but why is there so much stuff about Johnny Cash at the bottom of this article? (Links to his albums, singles, etc.) If I understood correctly, Cash did a version of Riders In The Sky, but the song isn't originally his, is it? So why all the Cash links at the bottom?

? where? --jpgordon^∇∆∇∆ 20:30, 12 September 2006 (UTC)
- I take it that means you don't see them. :) Well, at least on my screen, I see them between the external links and the category links at the bottom. Anyone else? RagingR2 21:52, 12 September 2006 (UTC)
  - Oh! I think I'm somewhat immune to seeing those big boxes! Removed; thanks. --jpgordon^∇∆∇∆ 14:21, 13 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Move/Retitle

Shouldn't this be titled (Ghost) Riders in the Sky??? Most songs that start with a parenthetical are named this way in the Wikipedia. I think it ought to be moved; I'm going to enter a WP:RQM. --DrGaellon (talk | contribs) 14:13, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Requested move

Riders in the Sky: A Cowboy Legend → (Ghost) Riders in the Sky: A Cowboy Legend — This is the actual full title of the song, as it appears in the first sentence of the text. DrGaellon (talk | contribs) 14:20, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
