Should the song also give Reggie Bush credit for sing part of it? --DJ Bilodeau 12:00 PM, 15 April 2007 (UTC)

He doesn't sing in it,he only appears in the video. -cristy 18:00, 15 April 2007 (UTC)

Genre

I oppose the insertion that this song is a classical song. It is stated in the article it is classically influenced, this does NOT make it classical. For instance, if you write a pop song with words influenced by a death metal song, does that make the pop song a death metal song too? No. Anyways, a new editor insists on being uncivil and pushing his point in to the article, even though they have already broke WP:3RR, a consensus should be drawn.

If a song is pop and death metal, then it is pop/death metal. How do you think the term pop/rock came about? Same applies here. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Moonraka (talk • contribs) 21:45, 10 November 2007 (UTC)

Do you have a source of Ciara saying this is a classical song? Influenced and actual classical are two different things. You need to start reading up on policy before you get yourself blocked for being disruptive. SpigotMap 21:48, 10 November 2007 (UTC)

There's a difference between being disruptive, and you disagreeing with me.

No you are being disruptive by continually reverting. That is called being disruptive. SpigotMap 21:50, 10 November 2007 (UTC)

And you're reverting just as much because you disagree with the song's genre

No, you have broken WP:3RR, I have not. And sign your comments. SpigotMap 21:52, 10 November 2007 (UTC)

Now explain how this song is classical and why you are continually reverting a bold change? SpigotMap 21:53, 10 November 2007 (UTC)
