Love this silly little track. I'll try to get to David Bowie as well if I have time. Tkbrett (✉) 14:02, 29 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Text

Prose and MOS is all good. I fixed small things myself rather than make you jump through the hoops, so make sure you agree with those.

References

Copyvio is a good 9.1% (violation unlikely). Sources look good.

Images

The Tony Hatch image is good, though it'd be nice if someone could get a better picture, at least for his sake.

Where does the image in the infobox come from? After a quick search on Discogs, I only see an image for the 2000 CD release I Dig Everything: The 1966 Pye Singles. The original single doesn't seem to have had a picture sleeve, but instead just came in a company sleeve.

Tkbrett I honestly have no idea. The now-banned User:Shoot for the Stars uploaded it and given that user's prior history with uploading Beatles-related images that were mostly removed I'd say the same should be applied here. – zmbro _{(talk) (cont)} 16:31, 30 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

If I remember correctly, there may have been an issue at one time with that user uploading fan art for picture sleeves, whether knowingly or unknowingly. I may being thinking of someone else, but in any case since we can't determine the origin, it's probably best to simply can it. It looks like there's a picture sleeve for a 1973 Spanish reissue, though I'm not sure who "the Lower Third" is. Tkbrett (✉) 17:56, 30 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Great job assembling all this info on such a niche track. I've been listening to the Kinks non-stop lately and so I've been surprised to hear how similar Bowie's early writing was to Ray Davies'. Maybe not as much on this track with respect to its sound, but the lyrics are there. "Can't Help Thinking About Me" reminded me of "Tired of Waiting for You", except that the latter is a little easier to say. "Can't help thinking about me" sounds awkward to say out loud, at least to my ears. Tkbrett (✉) 15:59, 29 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
