Occupy Movement
editGreetings, brethren. I am witnessing several incidents lately; late summer and autumn of 2011, where the "Occupy Movement" within the USA is using "Something in the Air" as a sort-of, kinda', theme song. Nothing overwhelming but not surprising sine there are "older folks" involved with the "Occupy Movement" across the USA. This is just a general comment that may not be indicative of an actual "resurgence" of what I consider to be an outstanding song that I have reveled in for many years. I even purchased a 45rpm 7-inch vinyl record of the song and recorded it onto cassette tape then onto a CD many years later and a copy is nestled within my hard drive, available for play via a few clicks upon my mouse button.

Omission in Petty's version
editThe Tom Petty cover version omits the third verse of Thunderclap Newman's original song ("Hand out the arms and ammo, we're gonna blast our way through here") and instead just repeats the first two lines ("Call out the instigators because there's something in the air"). 2A02:8388:782:EA00:6941:CFE2:9077:B5F7 (talk) 22:24, 2 August 2024 (UTC)
