Wasn't this song on the album Cellophane? Shouldn't this be mentioned?

D-major?
'"Love Is All Around" is a song composed by Reg Presley and performed by The Troggs in D-major.' Uh, really? How is the key any kind of relevant information? Especially in the opening sentence? Elcalen (talk) 20:37, 7 July 2012 (UTC)

Requested moves

 * The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review. No further edits should be made to this section. 

The result of the move request was: move the pages, per the discussion below. I'd note that WP:SONGDAB does not state that songs need to be disambiguated every time songs with identical titles exist, or that we are unable to determine a primary topic for a search request involving song titles; song titles need only be disambiguated when necessary--that is, when there is no primary topic. Our determinations of notability for inclusion are general, but we need not treat all articles as equally vital targets of a given encyclopedic search term. The discussion of evidence here indicates that this article can be taken as the primary topic for the title. Dekimasu よ! 23:06, 22 October 2014 (UTC)

– This song seems more notable than the others, and Wet Wet Wet's version is clearly more well-known than The Troggs', so the title should reflect neutrality at least. Unreal7 (talk) 11:14, 22 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Love Is All Around (The Troggs song) → Love Is All Around
 * Love Is All Around → Love Is All Around (disambiguation)
 * Comment no objection but I would definitely support making the Troggs song PRIMARYTOPIC on the disambiguation page. Gregkaye  ✍ ♪  11:38, 22 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Oppose per Naming conventions (music), we don't do primary topic for songs when other song articles exist, and this isn't a primary anyway. The comment about Wet Wet Wet and neutrality is odd since a cover version by a recent band hasn't replaced (The Troggs song) in Google Books. In ictu oculi (talk) 15:18, 22 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Ehm no, WP:NCM doesn't say "we don't do primary topic for songs when other song articles exist". In that sense we should move Dancing Queen, Welcome to the Jungle or ...Baby One More Time, all of them undoubtedly primary topics. What NCM says at most is "we don't do primary topic for" '(song)' ambiguous titles where there are at least 2 non-primary topic songs (although exeptions may apply). WP:NCF, which is more organized than WP:NCM, even says that it is allowed to have films to be primary topics: "If a film shares its title with one or more non-film topics on Wikipedia, compare all topics and determine whether one is the primary topic." (The Jazz Singer (disambiguation)). If we compare "all 'Love Is All Around' topics" this song is the primary topic. ©   Tb hotch ™ (en-2.5). 10:58, 23 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Exactly. I'm very surprised at the claim that we don't do primary topic for songs when other song articles exist, that seems completely at odds with our policies and practices. Andrewa (talk) 18:40, 30 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Support, per my comment above. ©   Tb hotch ™ (en-2.5). 10:58, 23 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Oppose. As IIO says, for music we don't use the beauty contest that is primary topic for several reasons, because notability relates to genre, ear of the beholder, age of the listener and the continual reuse of titles. I note that 6 months ago there was an editor moving songs around in accordance with, and quoting WP:SONGDAB, so much so that I made a point of thanking him for one of those moves. Now where did he go? --Richhoncho (talk) 17:35, 23 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Oppose - There are enough other songs (and works of other types) by the same title that giving this one precedence in the use of the title is unwarranted. Furthermore, my personal experience is that the original version by The Troggs gets more visibility than Wet Wet Wet's cover, which is not to say either of us is objectively correct, but it does demonstrate different people have different perceptions depending on what music discovery and listening sources you rely on. mwalimu59 (talk) 17:20, 24 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Good point. But we're a bit light on evidence either way. Perhaps relist to find some? Andrewa (talk) 18:42, 30 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Support "(The Troggs song)" is a misleading disambiguator since most people associate this song with Wet Wet Wet. The other "Love is All Around" songs are not even in same league as this one: 191+277+380<6076 Voice of reason 2 (talk) 15:28, 28 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Support. The other topics even taken together don't come near the fame or significance of the Troggs' classic, which is a garage band standard and has many covers, some of them notable in themselves. Andrewa (talk) 18:37, 30 September 2014 (UTC)


 * No activity on here for almost three weeks now. Is it time to move the page? Unreal7 (talk) 23:02, 16 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Close it by all means, but there is no consensus to move. --Richhoncho (talk) 15:41, 17 October 2014 (UTC)


 * Three supports and three opposes. Unreal7 (talk) 20:17, 20 October 2014 (UTC)
 * The above discussion is preserved as an archive of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on this talk page or in a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.

Release date is stated 1994, played at my wedding 1993
We had this song by Wet, Wet, Wet played at my wedding in the fall of 1993. I can only say that it might have been released in a movie soundtrack later but it was definitely out in 1993 2001:1970:509A:F600:90F4:942:65F:5093 (talk) 04:08, 8 June 2022 (UTC)
