Talk:Skyfall (song)

Proposed move
This song needs to be moved to Skyfall (Adele song).--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 00:26, 2 October 2012 (UTC)
 * No it doesn't. AARON &bull; TALK   23:30, 2 October 2012 (UTC)
 * It only needs to be moved if we have another song of the same name by a different artist. Paul MacDermott (talk) 16:17, 5 October 2012 (UTC)

DYK
Hi, is anyone planning to put this forward for DYK? The five day limit expires tomorrow so if nobody objects I'll nominate it later tonight. Paul MacDermott (talk) 18:23, 5 October 2012 (UTC)
 * I was planning to do it. We can do it together if you want :P — ΛΧΣ  21™  18:49, 5 October 2012 (UTC)
 * I went ahead and nominated. I put the name of the creator, another bold contributor, yours and mine. — ΛΧΣ  21™  18:59, 5 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Cool, thanks for doing that. I have a couple of other ideas for the hook so I'll add them as alts. Shame this missed the boat for today's Bond 50th anniversary, but perhaps it can be used when the film is released. Paul MacDermott (talk) 19:40, 5 October 2012 (UTC)
 * OMG the anniversary is today? LOL Yes a shame. And okay, add them :) — ΛΧΣ  21™  19:43, 5 October 2012 (UTC)
 * No worries, I must confess I didn't know it was today until it was mentioned on Radio 2 this morning, and only realised this was eligible tonight as I was browsing through the page history. :) Have added two now which should hopefully be ok, and will look for some others. The film comes out of the 26th, so I'll make a note of it on the DYK page. Paul MacDermott (talk) 20:03, 5 October 2012 (UTC)
 * We have the release of Dr. No in the anniversary section of the front page today, as it's the 50th anniversary, so I doubt that they will go with another Bond-related topic on the front page so soon. - SchroCat ( ^  •  @ ) 20:59, 5 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Yes, I noticed this after posting here. Three weeks will have elapsed by the time the film is released, but that could be too early I suppose. Sure there's plenty of other Bond anniversaries coming up though, if a little way off into the future just now. Two things I know of are the 60th anniversary of the publication of Casino Royale next April, and what would have been Ian Fleming's 105th birthday in May. Bound to be others though if it can't be used for the film. Paul MacDermott (talk) 21:08, 5 October 2012 (UTC)

This article was nominated for DYK on October 1. AARON &bull; TALK  21:11, 5 October 2012 (UTC)

 * Blogs are not allowed to be used. AARON &bull; TALK   21:44, 5 October 2012 (UTC)
 * This particular blog contains evidence from multiple reliable sources such as the Los Angeles Times, People magazine, and the Wall Street Journal. Surely an exception can be made considering this isn't just random people talking about how much they love the song (SuperCell3000 (talk) 00:15, 14 October 2012 (UTC))
 * No, it's still a blog and still not allowed. SchroCat ( ^  •  @ ) 07:10, 14 October 2012 (UTC)

I removed the part about The Harvard Crimson. Since when does Wikipedia allow for citation of sudent newspapers? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.123.242.32 (talk) 23:07, 16 January 2013 (UTC)

No. 1 in 19 countries
I've just removed a claim it was number 1 on iTunes in 19 countries because the information is not supported by the BBC ref. It is sourced from here, but I suspect this page is not static and will change regularly. Since the iTunes sentence forms part of a potential DYK hook it needs to be well-referenced or it will be rejected. On the other hand, this site says it is number 1 in 47 countries. Not sure if we can use that as a reference. Any thoughts, guys? Paul MacDermott (talk) 17:40, 6 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Just realised it's a forum (I guess the url provides more than a subtle hint :)), so we definitely can't use it. Paul MacDermott (talk) 18:05, 6 October 2012 (UTC)

Chile Singles Chart
http://top100chile.blogspot.com/

here I leave a link to the chart in Chile, so they can consider it and put it as a reference for the accuracy of the chart in Chile. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 190.121.33.152 (talk) 19:04, 8 October 2012 (UTC)
 * And here I leave a link to WP:BADCHARTS so people can see why the link shouldn't be added. Paul MacDermott (talk) 19:43, 8 October 2012 (UTC)

Recording date
What's the reason of difference recording date:
 * Ibox: September 2012
 * Article: Recorded at Abbey Road Studios, London, England in May and August 2012 --Misbeliever (talk)

Huffington Post?
The prominence of the Huffington Post is very amateurish not seriously encyclopedic. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.34.80.28 (talk) 05:15, 10 January 2013 (UTC)


 * Three references out of a hundred from a wp:reliable source? I'm not altogether sure how you come to that conclusion. - SchroCat (talk) 06:02, 10 January 2013 (UTC)

Coincidence
The Tamil language poem Achamillai Achamillai by Indian poet Subramania Bharathi (1882-1921) reads:
 * Uchchi Meedhu Vaan Idindhu Veezhugindra Podhinum, Achcham Illai Achcham Illai Achcham Enbadhillaiyae

When translated to English, it means:
 * Let the sky fall. When it crumbles, We will stand tall And face it all together

Sources:

I do find strong relevance to that poem and Adele's song, so someone pls add this info using the given sources. Kailash29792 (talk) 05:17, 26 September 2013 (UTC)


 * Interesting, although as it's a pre-1923 work, any copyright on it has long since expired. Paul MacDermott (talk) 10:20, 26 September 2013 (UTC)

Skyfall (Adele song) → Skyfall (song) – Unnecessary disambiguation; no other song with the title has an article here on Wikipedia. PopLizard86427 (talk) 23:01, 28 September 2021 (UTC)

Lyrics
Is the lyric "You may have my number, You can take my name" a callback to "You Know My Name" by Chris Cornell from Casino Royale? That would be good continuity and a nice tribute if so. But it might just be coincidence. --Jameboy (talk) 15:07, 19 December 2023 (UTC)
