It’s hard enough for most people to name all the members of Wu-Tang Clan, but things get even trickier when alternate monikers come into play.

First of all, the new Wu-Tang song is called "The Heart Gently Weeps," not "My People Gently Weeps," as was originally reported by Billboard and republished here. Much better title, we say. Perhaps more importantly, there is no actual "sample" of the original Beatles song "While My Guitar Gently Weeps," as Wu-Tang's RZA clarified on the group's MySpace blog.
