Talk:A Public Affair (song)

Controversy section
Exactly, how is that interview controversial?? She's just saying that she just wants to make an dance album and she didn't provoke Nick. I don't see any controversy there...

Best Video Ever
Even though I hate pop music, and am more of a hip-hop & rock person, I have to admit that this is the best music video ever by far.

Unsourced material removed
I've removed some of the unsourced material about chart positions and iTunes. If anybody would like to restore it, please cite your sources so that your work can be verified by others. Thanks. Extraordinary Machine 17:11, 3 August 2006 (UTC)


 * I've removed it again, because sources still haven't been cited. Wikipedia takes verifiability very seriously, and editors are allowed to remove any unsourced material from articles. The editors wishing to keep such material in the article are obligated to provide references for it, not any editors who remove it. I should also inform people of the three-revert rule, and that Wikipedia has a no personal attacks policy. Thanks. Extraordinary Machine 20:45, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

Jellybean Benitez House Party remix
It is official; it's on iTunes. Should there be some mention of it?

Help would be appreciated. Thanks. 70.225.85.157 00:47, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

Reference for interpolation claim
Where is the reference supporting the claim 'It features an interpolation of "Ain't No Mountain High Enough"'?

If this claim is true the interpolation is way to subtle to be mentioned but not sourced. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 62.31.162.143 (talk) 15:41, 24 January 2007 (UTC).
 * The sample is very clear, the bridge is exactly the same. The "whoa whoa whoa" bit Guylikeu 18:34, 9 March 2007 (UTC)

UK Chart
The UK Physical Chart doesn't exist! She entred the UK chart at #20 only, and then reaches the #6 with both download and physical release.

Personalized version
For a brief time, a personalized version of the track was offered. Didn't see a mention of it here. You picked from a list of common names and you could download an alternate version with your name inserted over "baby" in some lines and "[your name]'s coming out." It was a free download right around the time the single was released. I downloaded a version personalized to my name. Unfortunately, I don't have the info to cite it, so I'm not updating the article. But I felt it worth mentioning here on the talk page in case someone else remembers and/or has info on it that can be cited. Or just to have other editors keep an eye open for that info. I added it to my itunes without editing the info and it comes up as "A Public Affair - Personalized." Medleystudios72 (talk) 14:54, 10 February 2012 (UTC)


 * Nevermind, I just saw the mention under "commercial release." I was looking for a mention under "Track Listings and formats" or "Remixes and other versions."  My bad for not reading the whole article first. Medleystudios72 (talk) 14:57, 10 February 2012 (UTC)
