Songs don't practice religion, people do. Toddst1 (talk) 15:03, 18 May 2010 (UTC)

Should the page be moved?

"On" shouldn't be capitalized in the title.. RandySavageFTW (talk) 22:09, 29 May 2008 (UTC)

It is correct as is..."carry on" is a two-part phrasal verb and in such cases, both words should be capitalized in a title. --Wolfer68 (talk) 00:26, 3 August 2008 (UTC)

Trivia

This article is 90% trivia about where the song has appeared. I think that section should be removed. Toddst1 (talk) 17:05, 14 May 2010 (UTC)

Seeing no objections, I have done so. and am depositing the detritus here for posterity. Toddst1 (talk) 15:01, 18 May 2010 (UTC)

It would normally appear in the last four minutes of the film where Winkler is running down the street, then to crouch down in shame and agony, after being told his friend from Vietnam was shot in the war. When MCA purchased the film, they removed that footage and the audio track, and replaced it with different footage of Winkler in fetal position being embraced by Field, and a different song.
