[edit] Time signature
I'm in doubt about the time signature of this piece. Is that 3/4 or 4/4? It seems that nobody knows...

The sheet music is 3/4, but everyone seems to swing it. Kisch 17:56, 1 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] EVA EP
It seems that the singer CLAIR is a british indie songer/songwriter Claire Nicolson. The only source I sould find for this is this blurb about her on last.fm (which unfortunetly is a wiki itself). I sent an email message to Clair and will keep you updated. I hope this doesn't count as original research D: - Calicore 12:27, 19 October 2006 (UTC)
- It is original research. That is allowed on talk pages, but you can't actually put it in the article. --GunnarRene 13:47, 19 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Citing sources
How come the article doesn't follow the mandatory Wikipedia policy WP:V and how-to WP:CITE? You will have to do that eventually and it is easier if you do it as you go along. Mattisse(talk) 12:10, 24 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Too many artists
A lot of people have sung this song, and it seems like everyone who comes along to this page wants to add someone to the list. Besides Sinatra, I don't really have any idea if any of these versions are more or less significant than the others, so I hesitate to remove any of them just through the justification of saying "they fall under 'and others'". That said, that paragraph is looking ridiculous as it stands, and I dare anyone to say it in its entirety without drawing a breath half-way through. So, I suppose, we need to find an alternative. My proposals:
- Discuss each artist mentioned there, and delete any that are not sufficiently significant (by some kind of standard - verifiability would help, but is probably too lenient).
- Make it a list. Either in the article or as a new article. Unfortunately, I do see the risk of this being considered listcruft, unless there is something more to be added to the list besides just who has sung it.
After that, I'm out of ideas. Confusing Manifestation 13:09, 19 December 2006 (UTC)
- I'd say drop it completely, except for the 2 most known alternative versions (Sinatra? ... ?). On a side note, I've removed the name 'Sjoerd van der Putten' from the list - Google has no information about this person whatsoever. It was added by someone with a Dutch IP, and the name sounds Dutch... some personal name spamming maybe. 129.125.101.92 23:09, 30 January 2007 (UTC)
