|That word| seems important; so I found out a little more about |that word| (below-linked to my 'compulsion' of the lyrics that brought |that word| to my attention) and share my findings with you below---maybe I'll add some notes beneath (and/or you might start/continue the discussion in the comments).
... and I have to mention that a lot of help (a share of revenue, extra topics from magazines & advertising, etc.) comes from WowApp: Using the Wowism Community's Fairness to Prevail over Economic Greed

(not sure why 'that nickname' never caught-on so much ... I mean; we are "The Sooner State"---mostly because Oklahoma University chose to name it's team The Sooners).
