Lotus is the fifth, Back To Basics is the third.

Again, there is a difference between studio albums and albums recorded in a studio (or every album would be a studio album, except for live ones) ^[1]

Clear primary topic – when you type in "Back t-", this is the first suggestion after the Back to the Future films and Back to Black. Unreal7 (talk) 17:06, 13 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: I think there was a mistake in the nominator's suggestion here, so I edited it accordingly. I'm not expressing support or opposition at this time. —BarrelProof (talk) 00:28, 14 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. I don't see this being the primary topic for "Back to Basics". O N R (talk) 00:48, 14 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose - per WP:SONGDAB - User:BarrelProof, can we say don't do primary topics for multiple albums?, cf Back to Basics (Alan Hull album), 1994 Back to Basics (Anvil album), 2004, Back to Basics (Beenie Man album), 2004 Back to Basics (Billy Bragg album), 1987 Back to Basics (Maze album), 1993 In ictu oculi (talk) 03:39, 14 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose per WP:SONGDAB which states if there are two or more albums etc with the same name... --Richhoncho (talk) 14:20, 14 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. Since the popularity of music tends to be volatile and temporary, we should be very conservative about assigning WP:PRIMARYTOPIC status to particular songs or albums. This seems especially true of works produced within the most recent couple of decades, and here we have a work that is only eight years old being considered in relation to several prior works by other highly notable major artists (e.g., here we have Olivia Newton-John, Billy Bragg, The Temptations, and Maze). Also, very little evidence of primary topic status was provided – just the behavior of some unidentified autocomplete suggestion algorithm, which says nothing about long-term significance or the ratio of searches for one topic versus another. —BarrelProof (talk) 21:37, 14 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. No clear primary topic. I think most British people old enough to remember it, for example, would think of the political campaign. -- Necrothesp (talk) 13:13, 15 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose per WP:SONGDAB guidelines and above comments. IPadPerson (talk) 00:27, 17 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

And I don't know why everyone has to get together because some people get their hearts broken up to two times and it really hurts when you are yelling you want to focus on yourself but they just want to focus on finding love and maybe good for you is a good song because it's a heartbreak song gets you like all emotional and I think it's about the one person that really really messed up your life that made you think about maybe I should just focus on school work college graduation there's a lot of stuff that people need focus on and some people just like getting a like a girl wants a once a boyfriend and it boy wants wants a girlfriend like there's too much to think about like these times 207.255.115.129 (talk) 22:48, 18 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
