Misc. changes
I removed the POV passage "The characters are more fully conceived than in most of Dick's writing, and there is a humanity in the book that makes this one of Dick's most affecting works". Cnwb 01:14, 10 Dec 2004 (UTC)
this movie seems to be connected: http://imdb.com/title/tt0477988/
and hollywood is going to do a remake.

I changed "Ironically" to "Coincedentally" in the Sting trivia mention, because there really isn't anything ironic about it. Vaginsh 02:33, 2 December 2006 (UTC)
:I just went ahead and removed that whole sentence. Sting's song is a reference to the works of John Dowland, and has nothing to do with this book. -- Antepenultimate 17:43, 2 January 2007 (UTC)
:: FWIW "John Dowland" is a pen-name for P K Dicks. Pbhj (talk) 09:45, 31 May 2008 (UTC)
In popular culture
*Indie shoegaze band Nowhere Nothing is thought to take their name from the novel. Their album "hiccup" is supposedly a play on the title of Jason Taverner's hit single "Nowhere Nothin Fuckup" (Nowhere Nothing - hiccup). They also have a demo called "Taverner" released digitally under a separate band name. Additionally, there is a reference to Philip K. Dick's work in general on their album "collection five" with a song titled "Future according to PKD".
:Removed this pending sources and notability check. Viriditas (talk) 05:54, 28 February 2009 (UTC)
The band Built to Spill has a song of the same title as Jason Traverner's hit song in the novel: "Nowhere Nothin' Fuckup" (on their album Ultimate Alternative Wavers). I don't really know if that would qualify it as a reference, but I think it's a little too close for coincidence.
What about the Gary Numan song on the album The Pleasure Principle, called "Listen to the Sirens"? It starts: "Flow my tears" the new police song. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 59.57.162.250 (talk) 14:34, 13 February 2011 (UTC)
Discordance Axis - Jouhou (1997) contains a song with the same name. --Djadjko (talk) 23:08, 3 January 2017 (UTC)
Full Stop?
I noticed the cover of the book had a full stop after the title. Maybe this is the true title of the book and the title of this article should be changed with a full stop at the end? After all, it is in Good Night, and Good Luck..Parable1991 01:33, 1 April 2007 (UTC)
Spelling mistake?
One character's name is spelled both "Dominic" and "Dominick"... Which is the right spelling?

Shouldn't the bass tune (of the same name) be included under the category of music?
Stewart Hamm composed a bass song which is called Flow my tears the police man said inspired by the same novel. 88.65.198.108 (talk) 18:39, 28 November 2022 (UTC)
