Hi guys, I started a review of this article before realising that Special Cases had already begun a review (no reviewer name is shown in the GA noms list) Obviously I don't want to interfere but thought it might be useful to point out one concern I found. In the lead the article states "Although "Too Much" failed to match the success of its predecessor, "Spice Up Your Life", in the United States, it peaked nine places higher on the Billboard Hot 100, at number nine, becoming their fourth top ten single on the chart." while in the body it states "In the U.S., "Too Much" did better than its predecessor, "Spice Up Your Life", but was not as successful as Spice's singles had been." Presumably the sentence in the lead is wrong and should say that the single failed to match the success of the singles from Spice but did perform better than its predecessor, "Spice Up Your Life"?

[edit]

All looks good. I only have a couple of concerns: which are detailed below. Cavie78 (talk) 00:34, 7 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

  • As previously a stated, in the lead the article states "Although "Too Much" failed to match the success of its predecessor, "Spice Up Your Life", in the United States, it peaked nine places higher on the Billboard Hot 100, at number nine, becoming their fourth top ten single on the chart." while in the body it states "In the U.S., "Too Much" did better than its predecessor, "Spice Up Your Life", but was not as successful as Spice's singles had been." Presumably the sentence in the lead is wrong and should say that the single failed to match the success of the singles from Spice but did perform better than its predecessor, "Spice Up Your Life"?

  • How does the radio edit differ from the album version? You should mention this in the 'Composition' section.
The ad-lib is shorter on the radio edit, in the album version the ad-lib and the instrumentation lasts longer. But I don't have a source for this. Frcm1988 (talk) 22:53, 7 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I would say that it's ok to state this as it's easily verifiable by listening to the radio edit. Cavie78 (talk) 23:02, 7 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Added the info, sorry for the delay. Frcm1988 (talk) 18:19, 16 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • As you are using a 'Single' infobox I would think that it would be more appropriate to use a time for the 'radio edit' of the song.
