The Luck of the Irish (song) edit
- ... that "The Luck of the Irish" received an Apple Records catalogue number despite never being released as a single? Source: The Luck Of The Irish...was considered for the lead single from Some Time In New York City, and was given the release number Apple 1846 in the US. Eventually, however, it was replaced ...
- ALT1:... that according to John Lennon and Yoko Ono, if you had "The Luck of the Irish" you would wish that you were English? Source: This is all set up with the sardonic irony ... that play off the usual bromidic phrase "luck of the Irish," indicating that any luck the Irish have had has been...so bad that "you'd wish you was English instead."

A new article that is easily long enough and has no copyright issues. I recommend the original hook which is sourced (three times over) -- not to say ALT1 has any sourcing concerns. Neutrality is preserved and a QPQ was completed beforehand.TheGracefulSlick (talk) 22:05, 20 November 2017 (UTC)
