message: Wasn't a version of this song featured in a New York City, "Summer in the City" TV ad from the late 1970s? I have memories of the TV ad but can't find it online.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.96.240.174 (talk) 12:15, 3 August 2008 (UTC)

message: It says that the electric piano is a Hohner Pianet and the organ is a Vox Continental and I see this needs to be cited. The song's signature keyboard part sounds like a Pianet and the Vox Continental appears in the promotional video. The use of a Hohner Pianet should be apparent to any keyboardist who listens to the recording. I don't play any instruments myself but I know what a Pianet sounds like after having heard so many Beatles songs with this instrument (You Like Me Too Much, Tell Me What You See, The Night Before, Think for Yourself, Getting Better, I Am the Walrus and Revolution) and it sounds the same in this song as it does in the Beatles songs with this instrument. I don't see why that statement would have to be cited. I would like for someone else to explain why that claim needs to be cited.--Kevjgav (talk) 05:43, 18 April 2015 (UTC)

message: Hello: It's not unusual for singles released in various countries to have different B-sides. According to what is shown in the discogs links, Kama Sutra used "Butchie's Tune" in the U.S., Japan, Australia, and New Zealand. "Fishin' Blues" was used as the B-side in Germany (the Swiss and German singles appear the same), Canada, Norway, "Scandinavia" (can't quite see the label fine print), Netherlands, and Greece. In France, "Jug Band Music" was used and in the UK, "Bald Headed Lena".
To list all of the B-sides in the infobox would overload it. Except for the  chart tables, other countries' releases aren't discussed. For purposes of :Template:Infobox song#B-side, the U.S. (Spoonful's home country) should be sufficient. Perhaps "Some pressings of the single were backed with..." could be clarified with something like " If readers are interested, they can follow the discogs links for the details.

replies: text: Thanks , didn't notice that "Fishin' Blues" wasn't used in the US as well. The sources I have only list these two B-sides, so I've tweaked your suggest to only mention them. Tkbrett (✉) 16:57, 13 March 2022 (UTC)
