Talk:Smooth (Santana song)

Spanish Harlem Mona Lisa?
Can someone please provide a citation for the claim made in the last paragraph regarding the inspiration for the line "Spanish Harlem Mona Lisa"? Contrary to what the article claims, it sounds to me like a reference to Elton John's Mona Lisas and Mad Hatters, which also references Spanish Harlem. --Tsk070 (talk) 00:17, 7 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Someone has added your theory to the article without citation. While it is probably true, it should still be sourced.  Hoof Hearted (talk) 20:48, 22 September 2016 (UTC)

Impossible
The article says "The song was the last number one hit of the 1990s and the final number one hit of the 20th century." That would mean that it was number one for over a year. The last year of the 1990s was 1999. The last year of the 20th century was 2000. Surely you can count to 100?--Ibis3 (talk) 19:05, 28 November 2011 (UTC)

Release date
Was Smooth released on June 29 or August 3 as the RIAA says?2603:8081:160A:BE2A:4D2:1BCC:E19D:1838 (talk) 00:44, 20 November 2020 (UTC)

Were the 12 weeks at number 1 consecutive or not?
The lede says "The song was an international success, reaching number one on the US Billboard Hot 100 for 12 non-consecutive weeks." The Chart performance section of the article says "The single became a chart-topping hit in 1999, spending 12 consecutive weeks at number one on the Billboard Hot 100 beginning with the week of October 23, 1999." Which is correct? Chris3145 (talk) 22:32, 12 December 2022 (UTC)


 * It was a consecutive run. I've corrected the text. ResPM  (T&#x1F508;&#x1F3B5;C) 22:37, 12 December 2022 (UTC)
