Lead vocal credit in track listing section
[edit]Please do not change the article again without discussing it on the album discussion page. The standard format should be used unless there is a compelling reason to change it. Since nothing has been added to the discussion page to justify the deviation, I am reverting this edit. --Fantailfan 14:07, 7 October 2006 (UTC)
Lead vocal credit in track listing section again
[edit]You have again changed the article without discussing it on the album discussion page. The standard format should be used unless there is a compelling reason to change it. Since nothing has been added to the discussion page to justify the deviation, I am reverting this edit again and requesting semi-protection. --Fantailfan 20:16, 7 October 2006 (UTC)
- Okay, I don't know who you were referring to, but I just now, six years later, changed the article without asking permission first. Here's your "discussion": Ric Ocasek and Benjamin Orr both sing leads on track 8, "You Wear Those Eyes". Ben sings the verses, and Ric sings the choruses. Yes, I mean actual leads, one lone voice, apart and up front.
- I have seen in this article's history where somebody reverted an edit, saying Correction: it's Ocasek's vocals on "You Wear Those Eyes", not Orr's. This is an example of why you should never, ever, EVER begin a statement with "Correction:" You look like a snot when you're right, which is bad enough, but you look like an ASS when you're WRONG. And he was. And he did.
- Anyway: There's your discussion. I know my Ocasek from my Orr, and I have for a long time. It's like knowing John Lennon from Paul McCartney -- once you know it, it's so obvious, it seems absurd that you could've ever been confused. I'm completely certain. So I changed it.
- What I really love about this, is that Orr sing-speaks the monotone, quiet and creepy, low-pitched bit, and Ocasek sings the open, emotional, melodic, higher-pitched bit. It's the dead opposite of what the journalists and the half-assed-fans think is The Cars's "formula"!

"Touch and Go", #37 U.S. single, does not have its own article. Why?
[edit]"Touch and Go" does not have its own article. It wasn't even listed as a single in the template, until I added it (without discussing it with anybody, because it's indisputable). Here's the rest of what I have to say about it:

- The template doesn't list all singles, it lists singles with articles. --StarcheerspeaksnewslostwarsTalk to me 20:20, 4 February 2013 (UTC)
- Well, the song does have its own article, NOW.
