Talk:¿Quién será?

message: There is no reason every version of a song needs it's own page. I was looking for a listing of film and TV that used the song and artists who have remade  it. In conclusion, finding concise info was difficult.
*Agreed. No specific information can be found on PCD's own single page. Lajbi Holla @ meWho's the boss? 22:25, 26 April 2006 (UTC)

message: The article states that the English lyrics were written in 1954, the same year Dean Martin is listed as having recorded it, but on the list it states that Eileen Barton, an American artist, recorded it in 1953.  Unless she sung it in Spanish (Quién Será; unlikely), these facts seem...  mutually exclusive.
Also, Quién Será should redirect here.  I don't know how to do redirects.Meichigo (talk) 06:23, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: According to this Eileen Barton web site and this Coral Records web site the Barton recording was actually in 1954. According to the book Who Wrote That Song? Gimbel wrote the English lyrics in 1954. I have corrected the page. Cnilep (talk) 01:13, 20 December 2009 (UTC)

message: The main part of the article singled out versions by the Pussycat Dolls and Michael Buble. I thought there was no reason why these over all others should get special mention since these versions, along with numerous others, are already identified and listed in the following "recorded versions" section. --Wolfer68 (talk) 18:23, 25 December 2009 (UTC)

message: :The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion. 
The result of the move request was: no consensus. Perhaps a WP:SPLIT may be in order, as they are two different songs, but it's currently outwith an RM's remit. (closed by non-admin page mover) Sceptre (talk) 14:28, 25 February 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: ¿Quién será? →  – Or Sway (Luis Demetrio song). The article was moved last year to the original non-English title without discussion. The whole article, from reading it, is more about the English version of the original Spanish song than about the original itself. Also, there's Que Sera, Sera (Whatever Will Be, Will Be). As I believe, "Sway (Quien Sera)" has been commonly used, compared to the previous title decided in the 2019 RM. George Ho (talk) 01:39, 13 January 2022 (UTC)

thread_title:  Requested move 13 January 2022 

message: This article and the article for Shaft (British electronic duo) both state that the vocalist on Shaft's "Mucho Mambo (Sway)" version is Claire Vaughan. However, the credits on the CD single from 1999 (all cover scans can be found on Discogs) and on streaming platforms like Tidal state that it is Donna Canale, who also did the vocals for Shaft's following version of "Mambo Italiano". The source for Vaughan being the vocalist is a blog with a date from 1999, however, the actual website (chart-watch.uk) doesn't have archives on the Wayback Machine pre-dating 2016. Although possible, I find it doubtful that if this blog has been on the Internet since 1992, or at least 1999, that there would not be archives pre-dating 2016. Unless this blog was previously at a different URL (which is also possible), then I'm doubtful this was on the Internet in 1999. The writer of the blog says he has been writing about the charts online since 1992, but it's not stated how he came to "find" Vaughan is the vocalist when the CD single clearly states it's Donna Canale. Donna Canale's website also says she "even had a couple of Pop Chart busting hits with ‘Mucho Mambo (Sway)’ and’ Mambo Italiano’ for the dance act ‘Shaft’".
It appears information about the vocalist was added to Shaft's main Wikipedia article by an IP editor in 2015, and Wikipedia mirrors, another blog claiming Vaughan is the vocalist and even a primary source, a Facebook post from the "Aubrey Spencer School of Dance" stating "One of our past dance pupils, Claire Vaughan of Thurstonland, was the lead vocal on the Shaft single (Mucho Mambo) Sway", have since perpetuated that Vaughan is the vocalist when no reliable sources bear this out and it's quite likely an anonymous editor has invented this when it's not fact and it has been repeated as if it is. Nowhere can I find a CD single or a reliable source from 1999 crediting Claire Vaughan. (Please no responses claiming that because Discogs is a user-generated website that the cover scans must or could all be fabricated to show a different vocalist....nobody would bother doing this for a dance act that had two hits, and you can buy the single yourself on eBay for a couple dollars.)
Anyway, what does everybody think? I might go ahead and change this already because there's no reliable source claiming Vaughan is the vocalist. The liner notes of the single and online sources like Tidal state Donna Canale sang the commercial version of "Mucho Mambo (Sway)". Perhaps it's possible that after Shaft remixed the recording of Rosemary Clooney's vocals that they recruited Vaughan, but she is not the official credited vocalist.

replies: text: I emailed Donna Canale at the email located on her website and she replied earlier today, saying that she has never heard of Claire Vaughan and (copied from the email, minus one repeated 'the'): "The facts are that Shaft originally used a sample of Rosemary Clooney singing Sway but they were having difficulty clearing the legal aspects of using it. So, then they contacted me - Donna Canale to sing the part. I did it one summer's day in a studio on Holloway Road, London." Ss112 14:26, 8 September 2022 (UTC)
