The first paragraph says 'The song is obviously inspired by Charles Manson's Garbage Dump'. Although I agree there are some similarities, Google didn't come up with a single clue backing this statement. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 131.211.51.190 (talk) 11:54, 17 January 2007 (UTC).Reply

There are currently two citation needed tags in the "Use in Friends" section. These gotta be taken care of before I can start. – zmbro(talk)16:44, 18 June 2019 (UTC)Reply
Awesome! By the overall looks of it, this'll definitely be a pass, just gotta fix a few things. Full review tomorrow. :-) – zmbro(talk)22:46, 18 June 2019 (UTC)Reply
Infobox and lead
Make sure band names that start with "The" (in this case "the Hairballs" and "the Pretenders") are lowercase mid-sentence (see MOS:THEMUSIC)
I would change instance of things like this: ""The One with the Baby on the Bus” (season six, episode two)" to something like "the second episode of the sixth season: "The One with the Baby on the Bus"); also, this is actually flipped, that episode is season two, episode six
"The song is established as Phoebe's least popular among audiences." – just a question but didn't it become one of her more popular ones later on? I can't remember specifically, but if it did I'd say "The song is initially established..." but if not leave it
if I remember correctly, within the context of the series the song was never particularly well-liked (then again, none of Phoebe's songs are), but she just plays "Smelly Cat" so often that her "fans" just come to accept it – almost like it's more notorious than popular. But I've added "initially" for clarification.--Changedforbetter (talk) 23:15, 19 June 2019 (UTC)Reply
Nit-picky but I think an image of Swift from her 1989-era would fit better here, not her Speak Now-era, especially since she performed it on the 1989 World Tour.
"As of 2016, Daily" I think I would say "E. G. Daily" here since it's been quite awhile since Daily was mentioned
Understandable. Done.
Legacy
Why does Kudrow refuse to perform it?
Can't really find reliable sources in which she delves into why, but probably because she isn't a professional singer although she plays a musician on Friends.--Changedforbetter (talk) 23:33, 19 June 2019 (UTC)Reply

Discogs is actually an unreliable source (see WP:NOTRSMUSIC); these gotta be replaced
