Talk:Hey Jupiter

Can't believe this one wasn't already here. Well, I just started it. I love this song, especially the Dakota Version. --Pisceandreams 02:33, 5 October 2007 (UTC)

Dakota Version
Why is the Dakota Version called the Dakota Version? I think this should be included in the entry. --Skb8721 (talk) 03:48, 10 March 2008 (UTC)

Article contradicts itself
From the excerpt:

The Hey Jupiter EP features a remixed version of "Hey Jupiter"

From the "Dakota Version" section:

The version of "Hey Jupiter" released on the EP differs substantially from the version which appears on the album Boys for Pele. It is not a remix, but a full re-recording.

(my emphasis)

Any opinions on which it should be? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 137.205.186.6 (talk) 13:48, 16 August 2010 (UTC)

Song or EP
Tagging two previous editors.

The article's primary subject is the song "Hey Jupiter", with the EP Hey Jupiter as one location of the song. However, the title of the article is in italicized format, and the short description for the article references the article subject as the EP. I suggest the article title (and short description) be changed to song title in quotation marks unless this is a standard WikiProject convention. It would seem that having this article about the song makes sense.
 * Change this article title to Hey Jupiter (song).
 * Change short description to reflect song.
 * Add a redirect from Hey Jupiter.
 * Do not italicize the article title (default if Infobox is changed, as suggested below).
 * Change main image to reflect the single's cover rather than the EP's.

This is what is done with Crucify (song) and makes the most logical sense (imo).


 * Bonus: Use Template:Infobox song as the main infobox, adding information about the EP(s) within it rather than the current use of Template:Infobox album with added song information. This should be an easy switch.

I think that covers it. – Elizabeth (Eewilson) (tag or ping me) (talk) 23:42, 29 August 2022 (UTC)


 * I do believe that the song should take priority since that's the format that came first, and I would support something similar to what's located on "Crucify". However, regarding the image, I don't think it matters which artwork we use. The single was released as an EP in the United States, Amos's home country, while a nearly identical image was used for the international "Hey Jupiter" / "Professional Widow" single. You can replace it if you want, but I just don't think it's necessary as long as we clarify it with a caption. I won't protest either way. (BTW thanks for the ping.)

 * You are welcome! I'll keep the same artwork, no problem. Add a caption. Another thing I realized. I don't see a reason to change the name to Hey Jupiter (song). Crucify (song) has the "song" qualifier because "crucify" has multiple meanings. Hey Jupiter does not. Unless you are actually greeting Jupiter. :) So my changes should entail
 * using Template:Infobox song as the main infobox, adding information about the EP(s) within it rather than the current use of Template:Infobox album with added song information;
 * changing short description to reflect that it's an article about the song; and,
 * adding a caption to the artwork image that it's the US EP cover.
 * Anything else you can think of? – Elizabeth (Eewilson) (tag or ping me) (talk) 17:04, 30 August 2022 (UTC)
 * This sounds fair enough to me. ResPM  (T&#x1F508;&#x1F3B5;C) 17:31, 30 August 2022 (UTC)
 * I made those changes plus added Wikilinks. There are many statements that need citations. I think I may try to seek out some sources. I have Boys for Pele and the Fade to Red video collection. Some statements appear to be sourced later in the article, like those for peak chart positions, and just amount to also using them where they are missing. Thank you for your input and support. – Elizabeth (Eewilson) (tag or ping me) (talk) 18:51, 30 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Sure thing. I added some citations to the chart performance section. ResPM  (T&#x1F508;&#x1F3B5;C) 19:01, 30 August 2022 (UTC)
 * I see that! – Elizabeth (Eewilson) (tag or ping me) (talk) 21:23, 30 August 2022 (UTC)
