Life Is a Minestrone
[edit]- ... that "Life Is a Minestrone" was originally released as the lead single from The Original Soundtrack due to 10cc's reluctance to release "I'm Not in Love"?

Generally, this looks good to me - length, hook etc. My only query is about the tone - e.g. saying the band "did not have the balls" to release the single. Is this a quote or paraphrase? If not, it doesn't sound very neutral. Dwab3 (talk) 08:47, 12 August 2014 (UTC)
- It is neither, it's common parlance where I live and given how late it was I must not have been watching what I was typing. Fixed.--Launchballer 11:37, 12 August 2014 (UTC)
- I'd like to enquire as to what makes the 10CC fan club website a reliable enough source to build a hook on? -- Ohc ¡digame! 09:53, 13 August 2014 (UTC)
- Certainly. That is a transcript of a BBC Radio Wales interview, which is certainly a reliable source. As I can't find the audio interview, I am happy to assume good faith on the transcription.--Launchballer 11:15, 13 August 2014 (UTC)
