Talk:Tour de France (song)

Untitled
is the 99 release different to the 03 release?
 * Yes, different recordings entirely. 03 is a remake.

This article is really poor. Quite how you can mention in great detail the cover art and in minute detail all of the varius version the single came out as, and not mention anything about how the song came to be (like the Kraftwerk member's obsession with cycling) is beyond me.

Flur and Bartos
Any comment anywhere by anyone about the very Stalinist/1984 style removal of Flur and Bartos from the sleeve and video of the 1999 CD version? F and B are on the record, Henning and Hilpert are not. Does Flur have anything to say about this in his book? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.86.52.181 (talk) 20:48, 27 March 2011 (UTC)

- Bartos was still credited as a composer in both TDF 99 vinyl and CD-single — Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.223.104.101 (talk) 18:23, 11 August 2011 (UTC)

Merging proposal
I propose that the article "Tour de France 2003" be merged into this one. The 2003 version is essentially a rerecording, which is already mentioned in this article (though not linked for some reason?). Moreover, the article about the 2003 version is very short and has in fact been tagged as a stub since its creation in July 2020; its content could easily be copied here without causing much change to page size. I mention it not in an "other things exist" way, but as an example: there is precedent for merging rerecordings that had much larger standalone articles, as happened with the merging of "Love Story (Taylor's Version)" into "Love Story". I believe a similar course of action would be beneficial in this case as well. Bizarre BizarreTalk modern to me 20:42, 12 July 2021 (UTC)
 * The "2003 version" mentioned in the article for Tour de France (song) is an entirely separate composition from Tour de France 2003. This is the 2003 re-recording of the 1983 song "Tour de France", while this is the "Tour de France 2003" single (otherwise known as "Tour de France Étape 1-3 on Tour de France Soundtracks).
