message: I removed "OMC is also said to stand for Otara Motorcycle Club, a gang." If it can be substantiated that the band's name is a reference to such a motorcycle club, pls reinstate it. Nurg 01:58, 30 October 2005 (UTC)

message: I removed "In 2004 Fuemana declared himself bankrupt.", which though possible, is unsubstantiated, and I was unable to find anything to that effect after a cursory search...

message: I remember that during the VH1 100 Greatest One-hit Wonders special, it was said the members of OMC were in a gang and prison in NZ before hitting it big. Can anyone confirm this? - Thanks, Hoshie 19:32, 27 May 2006 (UTC)

message: It looks like the discography is listeing the date of when the single "How Bizarre" was released.  The ALBUM was released Feb 25, 1997. I'll just update that... Ajisukitakahikon 21:04, 24 October 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Album dates 

message: Looking at the video of OMC's latest song, Fuemana looks very different from when he appeared on the "How Bizarre" video. Anyone got any info on Fuemana between '97 and '07? (which may also answer some of the topics mentioned in the discussion) —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 202.150.114.71 (talk) 12:17, 4 February 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Was in the US before 1997... 

message: The dates are all over the place in this article.
It states the "How Bizarre" song was released in 1996, the album was released in 1997 but the band slit up by 1995.
Doesn't make any sense at all.

replies: text: Pauly and Alan formed the band, and wrote a good song but never released it. The band broke up. Pauly then pushed the song as a solo artist, but still using the OMC name. The song got released, and took off world wide. Then the full album got done. Or something like that. Hope this clears it up. Cheers  Esradekan Gibb  "Talk" 02:24, 23 June 2008 (UTC)

thread_title: chart link

message: Removing this track from the data, as has been done repeatedly by someone who doesn't quite understand the subject really takes a crucial part of the story out of the page. The single was NZ's last sighting of Pauly and the publicity surrounding it proved to be quite a media talking focal point for. The failure of this single is important to understanding what happened to Pauly. It's also important as it was a reunion of the two estranged crucial parties in the OMC story. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Snig27 (talk • contribs) 09:54, 22 February 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree. It is conventional for a discography to include all the band/ artist's official releases, not just those which charted, and as the above editor pointed out, in this case it is a significant piece of the story. Contains Mild Peril (talk) 03:29, 16 April 2010 (UTC)
