Release history

Other things

 * 26.5% is a good percentage for copyviolation
 * No disambiguation links
 * No dead links
 * The radio airplay release in Australia isn't entirely supported by the sources given, since the release date isn't clearly specifiec and the label isn't mentioned at all. Unless you find a better source, remove the label from the entire article (use "N/A" in "Release history") and rewrite the release date to just "November 2017"
 * The date is not, however, it says WMA on the first source, so I won't remove it. MarioSoulTruthFan (talk) 15:01, 17 April 2019 (UTC)

In the meantime, I found this source 1. MarioSoulTruthFan (talk) 12:43, 18 April 2019 (UTC)
