Slight correction edit
Al Stewart does not say that ALL the songs are about certainty and uncertainty. He says that the ALBUM is about that. For instance, Football Hero was just a tune he came up with at the moment and he has no idea why he wrote it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.52.66.213 (talk) 01:34, 25 September 2008 (UTC)
- The source says:
- "He was very sure of himself, but within a generation, everything he believed in was swept away," he said, adding that every song on the album -- which include historical figures like the Shah of Iran and Dwight Eisenhower -- address the same themes of "certainty and uncertainty." (emphasis added)
- Grammar aside, it's hard to construe the phrase "every song on the album" as "the album as a whole, but not every song on the album." TJRC (talk) 02:07, 25 September 2008 (UTC)
