I began copy editing "Crazy" today. It's a very good article on a fascinating topic. Are you the editor I should turn to with structural "comprehensible correct" questions on the content? I have a few and, saving a trip to Amazon, have no way to review the citations. Cleveland Todd ( talk) 21:41, 6 January 2022 (UTC) reply

@ Cleveland Todd: Feel free to ask whatever you need. I'm planning to nominate it for Good Article soon enough. I'm going to btw fix that section that was created recently about "The Masked Singer".-- GDuwen Holler! 21:44, 6 January 2022 (UTC) reply

@ GDuwen: The "Background and writing" section says Larry "Butler clarified that he did not need any players, but Nelson offered to sell him some songs that he played on a reel-to-reel tape recorder.[3] Butler liked the songs, but he refused to buy them and he offered Nelson a job working six nights a week with his band instead.[4] I began to revise this slightly for clarity but need to ask you: How could Butler "...not need any players," then offer "...Nelson a job working six nights a week with his band?" Was this a non-player job? Was Butler simply lying to Nelson originally? It's unclear. Thanks. Cleveland Todd ( talk) 16:12, 8 January 2022 (UTC) reply

@ GDuwen: Also in the "Background and Writing" section. Copy reads "After several tardy incidents, he was fired by KRCT, then let go from a Pasadena club where he performed." Was this the Esquire Ballroom? We should say so. Cleveland Todd ( talk) 17:29, 9 January 2022 (UTC) reply

@ Cleveland Todd: For the first question, he did end up hiring him to play in the band. So to speak, Butler assumed that Nelson was just another guitar picker looking for a gig and proceeded to turn him down immediately until he heard the quality of his songwriting.-- GDuwen Holler! 19:24, 10 January 2022 (UTC) reply

@ GDuwen:Can I say that? Is it in the source material? It's a good answer and makes sense. Cleveland Todd ( talk) 17:56, 11 January 2022 (UTC) reply

@ Cleveland Todd:Well, the source material tells how Butler was impressed by the songs, that he refused to buy them because he considered that they were too good, and that he end up giving him a 50 dollar loan and hired him to play with his band instead.-- GDuwen Holler! 19:29, 11 January 2022 (UTC) reply

For the second doubt, the Pasadena club comes up nearing the end of his time in Houston in his autobiography (not mentioned by name). I don't think he spent too much time working there, and he was doing it on the side to make some extra money. He wasn't let go from the club out of showing up drunk or late, rather than he was considered untalented.-- GDuwen Holler! 19:24, 10 January 2022 (UTC) reply

@ GDuwen:I'll just leave this one the way it is. Cleveland Todd ( talk) 17:56, 11 January 2022 (UTC) reply

@ GDuwen: Almost done with the copy edit. But a question, not related to the copy editing: I'd really like to know more about Nelson's writing of the song. What motivated him? How did he feel about it. There's a lot of content on where he was; what his difficulties were; how his lack of income affected him. But the only direct insight is that he "completed the song is if he were a man whose relationship recently ended." If there's more, I'd sure like to learn about it." Cleveland Todd ( talk) 21:24, 15 January 2022 (UTC) reply

@ Cleveland Todd: He wrote some of what is considered his best material during his time in Houston and his beginnings in Nashville. Particularly in Houston, he composed "Crazy", " Night Life" and " Funny How Time Slips Away" the same week. I think you can see the source of his inspiration by reading what he lived through there: Long commutes to different jobs where he was making next to no money, the subsequent issues he had providing for his family and whatever domestic problems arose, his abuse of alcohol. He was living in an area that is considered to be kind a bit of an eye sore (or was at the time at least). Meanwhile, he was pursuing a career in music that was having some success, but that it was being really slow to progress (that would create doubts in anybody's mind as to how possible it is to "make it"). Before getting to Houston, though he was a successful DJ in Fort Worth, he had a similar story of hit-and-misses while holding odd jobs. Things didn't change much by the time he got to Nashville until he got the massive success of "Crazy" (or as he noted later in a line of "Me and Paul", "Nashville was the roughest").

It is somewhat of an universal truth that artists need to suffer to be capable of creating such works. Quoting Kinky Friedman: "Probably the great art will be done and the great novel will be written by somebody who’s just trying to pay their rent." That was the case for Willie Nelson, and that's what after ten years of just being famous as a songwriter in Nashville but failing as a musician made him retire for a year until he moved to Austin and his career reset, and practically "blew up" to make him one of the hottest acts of the 70s.

But back to Houston, I meant to say that with all that was going through his mind, his hurting and a long commute, just throwing a little concept like a breakup was good enough to create "Crazy". Or at least that's my opinion on it after reading a number of books and articles on him.-- GDuwen Holler! 23:18, 15 January 2022 (UTC) reply

Thanks for uploading File:Crazy - Patsy Cline 1961 - Decca Single.jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:

1. Go to the file description page and add the text {{ Di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}} below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing <your reason> with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
2. On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification, per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Any particular instance or just in general? I'll take another look during the GAN review process. I sometimes mentioned directly the year because for example a lot of details were given regarding the tour dates (or other information I did not find too relevant to include in the article). After the height of his career in 1929 and leading up to his death his popularity decreased to the point that apparently in 1933 only a few newspapers picked up the story of his demise.
