IMDB for songs
So I was listening to Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros - Home and was thinking that songs where the artists actually whistle are made that way to emphasize on the really cool melody the composer came up with. Or maybe I just like songs where whistling along is made easy. Anyway, the Internet movie database IMDB has keywords for every film that go from "mafia boss" to "Ampersand In Title". Is there such a database for songs? If there isn't, the Internet needs it. "Based on Suo Gân", "80's", "A cappella", "Folk song" and a lot more.. I'd really spend a lot of time at the site and might even click on some ads. Joepnl (talk) 00:55, 27 May 2013 (UTC)
 * This took me about 30 seconds with Google. Link. The first and third links look promising.  Don't forget to click on some ads.  :)  Dismas |(talk) 01:44, 27 May 2013 (UTC)
 * I found those with Google, but they are not anywhere near the level of detail IMDB supplies. IMDB has 265 movies with the keyword "whistling", plus 5 "whistling-while-snoring". It has such detailed information on more than 2 milion movies. There should be something similar for songs? Joepnl (talk) 00:11, 30 May 2013 (UTC)


 * Not sure if it has that functionality specifically, but the IMDB for songs is Allmusic. -- Jayron  32  00:24, 30 May 2013 (UTC)
 * That's a bit more like it, thanks! Still not near IMDB though. Joepnl (talk) 19:16, 31 May 2013 (UTC)

Why did Alex Forrester in Fatal Attraction call Beth, Michael Douglas' wife selfish at the end?
Why would Alex Forrester in Fatal Attraction call Beth near the end stupid and selfish? She stole the lady's husband, kidnapped the kid, and terrorized the whole freaking family. She also had sex with a married guy and got pregnant. She was stupid selfish one with all the stuff she did. 174.7.167.7 (talk) 03:57, 27 May 2013 (UTC)

 * Because (according to my own subjective interpretation of the work) Forrester has been mentally unbalanced by her obsession with her love interest Gallagher, and people usually interpret events and situations according to their own (in this case warped) viewpoint. The character may also have have been intended by the writers to have a pre-existing borderline personality disorder which her affair with Gallagher exacerbated.
 * It's also commonly believed (e.g. Matthew 7:3) that people who exibit a behavioral fault may be blind to that fault in themselves but mistakenly see it in the behaviour of those around them, thus providing them with an acceptable (though incorrect) explanation of why things are not working out as they would like. (Trivial example: the rudest person – by general concensus – in my workplace office not infrequently and often wrongly accuses other people of being rude.)
 * You as an uninvolved observer of the events in this film can perceive the "true" situation (bearing in mind it's a piece of fiction), at least some of those "actually" experiencing it cannot – mirroring Life. {The poster formerly known as 87.81.230.195} 90.205.215.225 (talk) 21:27, 27 May 2013 (UTC)


 * In psychology, it's known as projection. --Nicknack009 (talk) 21:44, 27 May 2013 (UTC)

Female Hong Kong celebrity
Hi! I want to find out about the name of this female Hong Kong celebrity who presented Chen Liping her award on Star Awards 2000. She can be seen behind Chen Liping at 1:12 in this Youtube video, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MLtdegIjfzM.

CM Punk move
What is the name of the finishing submission move CM Punk used on 2 normal RAW matches I have seen early this year and won quite easily? It's not the usual Anaconda Vise or the Koji Clutch and it's not mentioned in his Wiki page either. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pnf1 (talk • contribs) 09:33, 27 May 2013 (UTC)


 * Ask the scriptwriters. HiLo48 (talk) 11:03, 27 May 2013 (UTC)


 * Wow, bad response above.  Pnf1, could you describe the move at all, and/or give a more precise time frame? --SubSeven (talk) 20:48, 29 May 2013 (UTC)

podcast of french radios
Which French radios in France has a website where I can download podcast of their programs whether it be current affairs, documentary etc? and doesn't Premiere Chaine Radio-Canada have any page features downloadable podcasts? --Donmust90 (talk) 16:11, 27 May 2013 (UTC)Donmust90


 * Could you do some searching before you ask here. Baladodiffusion is the Radio Canada link I found. CambridgeBayWeather (talk) 03:40, 28 May 2013 (UTC)


 * And this link should take you to a list of French radio stations that can be heard on your computer. If it doesn't work, try a simple google search for "French radio stations". --Xuxl (talk) 09:18, 28 May 2013 (UTC)
