Talk:Charly (song)

'What Evil Lurks' Link
Given that What Evil Lurks is an EP and the Album template lists EPs should it also be linked here as a single? I'm gonna be bold and go ahead and change it for now. TygerKrash (talk) 10:52, 14 August 2009 (UTC)

'Remixes' Section
I'm not sure that this section is relevant? It seems to be a lot of what I would call fan mixes or simple repetition of items from the various versions of this single, Even if it is relevant than I specifically have a problem with these unofficial remixes (and IMHO of dubious quality) being granted the same status as the official remixes. Not sure how this is handled elsewhere, will take a look.TygerKrash (talk) 10:23, 28 April 2010 (UTC)

I don't think all "fan" mixes are unrelevant. Of course they don't bother a separate article, but maybe should get a separate section. I think official released, or DJ-made "fan" remixes can be relevant, a mix can be relevant from authors who have stabile articles on wikipedia or notable in an other "official" meaning.

But most of the mixes there weren't in fact fan mixes, but "official" remixes, released by Prodigy itself on remix and compilation albums and Single CD-s. I put a source template to Charly Bit Me remix, cause it is not "Charly Bit Me", but "Charlie Bit Me", and no evidence shows that it is related to Prodigy tracks.

 * 2) Charly (JOC Rework 'Subculture' version) - A somewhat different version of "Charly 'Joint Operation Centre Rework'" from John O'Callaghan; "subculture version" is my expression. Other data also unknown.

 * D: Totally unofficial-like: fanmade or unidentifiedly authorised remixes
 * 1) I Love Charly ("Restart version") - Charly Remix by unknown author "Promi" (?), released on pirate CD "Restart".

 * 13) Ch (Frostbyt Mix) - remix by youtube user DJFrostbyt1
 * 14) Ch. (Dj Squek Mix) - remix by youtube user Squeak_yd.
 * 15) Ch. (Modek Darwin's Remix) [2012-04?] - remix by S.cloud artist, youtube upload 2012. 04.
 * 16) Charly (Lee Oakes Remix) (2011 nov.)
 * E: Other
 * 1) Charly Ratpack UK remix
 * 2) Charly (3 " CD Alley Cat Mix) FAST SPEED - ??? Seems to be a fake thing, but don't know.

I think category A is undoubtly relevant, category B is relevant too because of authot notability, and pieces in category C can be relevant in some cases, for exampample if they became extremely popular, officially and not-trivially mentioned in media, or behaving as a meme etc.

Popcorn
Doesn't hoover melody from Charly sounds like Popcorn by Gershon Kingsley and Hot Butter? No one mentions this. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 161.111.59.18 (talk) 09:02, 5 March 2019 (UTC)
