Talk:Heart of Glass (song)

message: In the German Wikipedia, this song is interpreted as Bossa Nova-style. What do you think? --KnightMove 23:19, 12 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: That seems odd. I believe the song uses the Roland CR-78 drum machine, which had a popular bossa nova preset rhythm. Perhaps this has become mangled in the telling. -Ashley Pomeroy 20:45, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Fair use rationale for Image:Blondie heartofglass.jpg

message: I'm pretty sure that the UK single wasn't the album version. It was edited to remove the "pain in the ass" line which was the standard album version, and probably different playing length as well.--82.0.207.86 (talk) 19:38, 29 April 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  UK single 

message: Most of the stuff about the versions is wrong.
The UK single (as the poster says above) was *not* the (original) album version*.  The orig album version runs about 3:47.  It starts with the sequencer(?) beats before lauching into the main tune; the UK single crashes straight into the tune without the beats.  The album version has one repetition of Destri's organ solo (15 secs); the single doubles it up (30 secs).  The album has "ass" in the last verse; the single has "glass". After that verse the album has Debbie's "ooh ohh ohh ahh" for 16 secs, then instrumental till end.  The single instead repeats the "In between ... teasing like you do" verse and then goes into male-voiced "da da daa" until the end.
The 4'10 is the same thing as the UK single version, but on the single it is simply faded down early, making the time of 3'54.  The 4'10 version is thus correctly identified as the "original single version" on (amongst others) the "Singles Box" set and "Parallel Lines - Deluxe Collectors Edition" (from 2008) despite the discrepancy in running time.
*It should also be noted that on most modern-day versions of the "Parallel Lines", the album version mentioned above has been replaced by the 5'48 version from the 12" release, this being variously referred to as "extended" or "disco" mix/version. This was presumably done at the behest of the producer, Mike Chapman, who considered this longer version superior. One needs to look for old versions of the album to find the original 3:47 album version.

thread_title:  Versions 

message: Having done some research, the 3:22 "US single version" is actually a "Electro Disco Mix Radio Edit", the 3:55 "UK single version" is supposedly an alternate mix (which I find it hard to believe since the same version goes on to 4:36. There's not a snowball's chance in hell they'd have used a pipe-frame artificial fade-out to end their own track) and the version at 5:48 is the 12" version, not the album version. Having said that, the 7" version of 4:12 is correct which from what I can see is the single version.--85.210.159.223 (talk) 20:10, 23 September 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Versions' acrimony 

message: French music producer and DJ Bob Sinclar is well known for his House music which is a genre of electronic dance music. That is what he does and what he is known to do. But every time I try to add a genre to his "Heart of Glass" single, User:Synthwave.94 removes it. No source is ever good enough for User:Synthwave.94. He removes it all. We need to use common sense here and common sense should be taken into consideration here regarding Bob's genre of music. Bob Sinclar's music is house and his music is well known as such so fighting to prove his style of music is ridiculous. Caden cool 17:59, 7 May 2016 (UTC)
