Talk:The Fear (Lily Allen song)

Oricon
the single NEVER charted on the Oricon Weekly Charts... I checked it, and the source/link on the page is mistaken because it refers to an independant Japanese Airplay Chart... —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mysterious Spy (talk • contribs) 12:59, 24 March 2009 (UTC)

Plagiarism
You may want to go through the article and remove some close wording. "Musically, Allen adopts a more mature electropop sound to the song, which has been described to have "a pulsing, sleekly modern electro dance backing",[5] while sticking out of a flood of soft synths[6] and being eminently danceable and slightly trancey.[7]" celebrity superficiality set to a pulsing, sleekly modern electro dance backing, somewhat trite though it is, sticking out of a flood of soft synths, Eminently danceable and slightly trancey, she apologises for her avarice Citing something does not entitle you to steal their words. Either reword, or add quotation marks. \ Backslash Forwardslash / (talk) 22:05, 2 October 2009 (UTC)

beats per minute
Having taken 5 hours to install Logic Studio on my Mac, I was interested to see that The Fear is basically given away with the software as a Logic project. I note in the project it's 134bpm, whereas the article claims 136. I have no idea whether it was slightly speeded up for release or not, I suspect not, but figured I would ask where 136 came from, rather than change the article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mkns (talk • contribs) 22:41, 11 October 2011 (UTC)

134 BPM
It's 134 bpm, not 136. I know this for a fact because I have the actual Logic Pro 9 file for the actual song (the file comes with Logic when you download the software). --Rainbowroad6w (talk) 22:32, 19 March 2012 (UTC)

Reference to the Great Depression
Where does the song make reference to the Great Depression??? 190.190.52.39 (talk) 06:18, 25 January 2013 (UTC)

I am extremely curious about this too! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 14.202.52.115 (talk) 08:07, 30 April 2015 (UTC)
