YMMV / Breakfast in America

Go To

  • Refrain from Assuming: "Breakfast in America" is not "Take a Look at My Girlfriend".
  • Unintentional Period Piece:
    • The abstracted New York City skyline made out of breakfast items prominently includes the World Trade Center, which is why the album cover has become a magnet for 9/11 conspiracy theorists.
    • The title track mentions jumbo jets, which were the main form of transatlantic travel in 1979. Airlines have largely retired the Boeing 747 after more fuel-efficient twin-engined planes became certified for long-haul flights since the 1980s.
