"Original video"

There's mention of two videos, the description of the first has a reference to a YouTube video marked private. There is no way of verifying the correctness or even the existence of that video. If nobody can provide a link to the actual video or a better reference, the content should be deleted.

This "Original" video does exist, and the description is correct, though it is not listed on Tove Lo's Vevo channel. The only version of this video I have found was uploaded by an unaffiliated user, and thus I cannot verify the date the video was released or the right to share the content. Here is the link: Tove Lo - Habits - Original video

Habits (Stay High) → Habits (Tove Lo song) – The original hit was just "Habits". It was released in December 2013. It was charting in multiple charts including #1 in US. "Habits (Stay High)" came much later in March 2014. Stick to original as prevalent, so naturally has priority. werldwayd (talk) 23:08, 2 September 2014 (UTC)

Support name of artist required here per WP:SONGDAB. In ictu oculi (talk) 04:15, 8 September 2014 (UTC)
Support The song's name seems never to have been "Habits (Stay High)", but rather might have been either "Habits" or "Stay High". The move would be a better disambiguation than what is currently used. Blue Rasberry (talk) 14:04, 9 September 2014 (UTC)

Habits (Tove Lo song) → Habits (Stay High) –

Oppose - the single cover and many sources clearly say "Habits" and only "Habits", this isn't a sensible application of WP:NATURAL In ictu oculi (talk) 23:34, 28 December 2014 (UTC)

The single cover is hardly the best source. Some album and single covers (many of Björk's albums come to mind) do not include any text at all - are we to assume these works are untitled? I have already demonstrated with Google results that "Habits" (without the "Stay High" subtitle) appears far less frequently in sources than the full "Habits (Stay High)" title. And even if it didn't, NATURAL says, "If it exists, choose an alternative name that the subject is also commonly called in English reliable sources, albeit not as commonly as the preferred-but-ambiguous title." Natural disambiguation, such as a commonly-used subtitle, is always preferred to parenthetical disambiguation such as "(Tove Lo song)". –Chase (talk / contribs) 02:22, 29 December 2014 (UTC)
It should be also noted that the single cover currently used is not the only one in existence. A quick look at iTunes shows four covers that use the parenthetical title: 1, 2, 3, 4. –Chase (talk / contribs) 02:28, 29 December 2014 (UTC)

Oppose - according to the move request above, the original title of this song when it was first released was "Habits". The consensus was therefore to move to the current title. I have not seen evidence that the situation has changed. — Amakuru (talk) 21:22, 26 January 2015 (UTC)
