Talk:Back to December

Not Single
The sorce given saying that this Back to December is a single is incorrect.This song was released as a promotional single,along with Speak Now(song),"Mean" & "The Story of Us".Apple48 (talk) 07:52, 10 January 2011 (UTC)


 * It has been released as a single with an accompanying music video. — My December (talk) 16:16, 13 January 2011 (UTC)

Release date discussion
I changed the date to the purchasable date, as that's the date most singles use. But I just thought I'd bring it up here for discussion. It was previously released in October, but as simply a promo single, so that doesn't have much effect on the official release. I just wanted to know what everyone else thinks about what date should be used. ℥nding · start 03:44, 27 January 2011 (UTC)
 * I support using the purchasable date. Previously issued as a promo, now a single. So, single date should be used. I don't think radio dates should be used, as some songs pick up airplay even before their release. Novice7  |  Talk  04:03, 27 January 2011 (UTC)
 * I support being the purchasable date as well, I was want to see if we could all get on the same page. :) ℥nding · start 04:11, 27 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Why don't we just put "see history" there which links to the release history section in order to solve this matter? This is just a suggestion. — My December (talk) 14:35, 27 January 2011 (UTC)
 * That's not what that's about. It's about which date we should go by for official release. Most articles go by the purchasable date, and I changed it to it, but some people disagreed, and haven't contributed to the discussion here. This is kind of similar to Hard (song). It was sent to radio a few months before it's official physical release date. ℥nding · start 20:19, 27 January 2011 (UTC)
 * I asked for an opinion on the matter of radio date vs. purchase date at the WP:Albums talk page, so perhaps this can be of some help here. Dan56 (talk) 22:49, 27 January 2011 (UTC)

Remixes
There are 3 remixes that have been official released of this song, a pop mix which is available on iTunes, an acoustic version which is available on the Target exclusive Speak Now Deluxe edition and a radio edit which is also available for download on iTunes. These official remix releases need to be posted on the Back to December page and left on there.
 * Do you have a reliable source for this? Yves (talk) 18:17, 18 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Yes several, I own the Target Exclusive Deluxe Edition of Speak Now and the acoustic version of this song is a bonus track on the album check if you must look I got the link here http://www.target.com/Speak-Now-Deluxe-CD-Target/dp/B004008F58/. The pop mix and the radio edit are on YouTube, how they were gotten is unknown (possibly another leak lol) but I have heard both. Actually the radio edit plays on the radio and first time I heard it I was mad it was shortened lol.
 * The International version of Back to December is in fact the Pop Mix and I'm sure is available for digital download on the UK iTunes. JamesAlan1986 (talk) 18:37, 3 June 2011 (UTC)
 * I added the Back to December (Acoustic) and the International Verion as they are both on amazon and they are referenced on the main page.

Length
I remember the length previously read - 4:54 (main version) and 4:07 (radio version) but it doesn't say that anymore. I'm not going to make that edit so it says that again because I don't want to edit war with anyone. And I do believe that would be edit warring. I can't help but notice that the version that is played on the radio is shorter than the version on the album, with a shorter intro, a shorter instrumental break and finally only one "all the time" line in the ending instead of two as heard on the album version.--Kevjgav (talk) 21:25, 13 May 2015 (UTC)
