Rise & Fall[edit]

Craig David's song: "Rise & Fall" also sampled Sting's "Shape of my Heart".203.160.119.189 09:39, 2 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Video[edit]

I'll leave it in as notable, but they were wearing strapless and backless bras, with sown on stuff, then wind machines to make them flutter. Not nude, or even that effect. Obviously a lot of extra digital butterflies.--86.139.100.201 (talk) 20:27, 4 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Review[edit]

Prose comments

In the lead, I think you should say that "Shape of My Heart" is from Sting to avoid confution. I thought it was the Backstreet Boys' song :)
- It already does :S Till 05:04, 3 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  - Oh yes it does. Lol.
AOR: you should write the meaning of those.
- I don't know what it means, I think it's just adult-oriented rock which is a type of rock. The readers can click the link anyways. Till 05:04, 3 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  - Well, you may like to write adult-oriented rock instead of AOR. it at least gives a more meaningful information :)

Images

The cover may be a bit too big, but I may be wrong.
- The "Shape" cover or the Sydney picture? Till 05:04, 3 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  - Lol the cover image (the cover of the single)
Okay. Those are all I have to say. As usual, your nominations are of good quality from the beginning. Regards.
- Thanks ^_^ Till 05:04, 3 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned references in Shape (song)[edit]

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Shape (song)'s orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "Dutch40":

From Hole in the Head: "Sugababes - Hole In The Head". Dutch Top 40. Stichting Nederlandse Top 40. Retrieved 7 December 2012.

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT ⚡ 18:29, 26 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
