[edit]I've removed the line Suzie Quarto has not performed "Rubber Bullets" from the article since I think it's vandalism. Danceswithzerglings (talk) 16:54, 21 December 2009 (UTC)
redirect/disambiguation
[edit]I don't know how to do it, and i've not really got time to read up on how, but at the moment, Rubber bullets redirects to "rubber Bullet" the ammunition type. I found it quite difficult to get to this page. D.C.Rigate (talk) 04:26, 30 March 2011 (UTC)
Original interview
[edit]I think some of the quotes in this article actually originate in this article, which goes into the making with quite some depth:

Speeded up track?
[edit]The guy talks like he invented the technique. May I introduce you to a band called ‘The Beatles’ and the many innovative tricks they used ? 2401:D006:A202:7E00:4817:B523:BFBD:9063 (talk) 18:47, 21 March 2025 (UTC)
- Stewart just said "
So it's a very unusual sound done in that way, just an experiment. Because 10cc, we love to experiment, we used to love to waste time.
" So that's not quite the same thing as claiming to have invented anything. It was just an experiment for them. Martinevans123 (talk) 18:54, 21 March 2025 (UTC)
Title change
[edit]To reduce confusion, I would support a title change to "Rubber Bullets (song)". Also, Google's AI features are misusing this article. Google question: "Why were 10cc rubber bullets banned?" Google's nonsense answer, which is a quote from this article: "I was amazed, but pleased that the BBC never banned the track, although they limited its airplay, because they thought it was about the ongoing Northern Ireland conflicts. In fact, it was about an Attica State Prison riot like the ones in the old James Cagney films." ScienceFlyer (talk) 17:44, 9 June 2025 (UTC)
- We don't need to adjust material just to address Google's incompetence. The projectile is Rubber bullet with lower case and singular. Martinevans123 (talk) 17:49, 9 June 2025 (UTC)
