Like last time I reviewed one of your articles, I will do this in stages of sorts since it is very large. --Kyle Peake (talk) 15:49, 6 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Wow, thanks so much for reviewing another one of my articles so soon. I'll be sure to look at another of yours as soon as I can. LOVI  33  16:03, 6 July 2020 (UTC)
 * My pleasure and that would be great if you did, I'm not meaning to be trading reviews or anything since some may think that comes across as bias but it's not like we're going around asking each other to review things constantly so nah. --Kyle Peake (talk) 16:31, 6 July 2020 (UTC)

Background and composition

 * Source, the archived version probably doesn't show it but if you look at chords in the sample it shows this. Parts have a watermark but it disappears if you buy it. LOVI  33  22:12, 7 July 2020 (UTC)

 * This is the order on the liner notes
 * Use so there is the right space between credits and personnel

Weekly charts
✅
 * See MOS:TABLECAPTION; maybe something like: Weekly chart performance for "Be the One"

Year-end charts

Final comments and verdict

 * until the issues are fixed; one thing I often noticed was not citing publishers properly. --Kyle Peake (talk) 18:16, 7 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Thanks again for reviewing this article ! I have addressed all the issues. Is there anything else I can do? LOVI  33  15:17, 8 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Great job, the article is looking good right now; I just have a statement about the chart query. I don't believe the radio charts are notable since you have the main singles charts for Czech Republic and Slovakia, so why include those too? --Kyle Peake (talk) 18:38, 8 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Okay, I have removed them. LOVI  33  18:40, 8 July 2020 (UTC)
 * ✅ on this now! --Kyle Peake (talk) 18:47, 8 July 2020 (UTC)
