Yeah... really. Where are you getting that? Reel Big Fish wrote the song for them, or something along those lines. If you know Reel Big Fish, it seems so obvious, but you'd never figure it out on your own. --128.146.68.89 17:13, 2 June 2006 (UTC)

message: The lyrics in their (Goldfingers) version of 99 Luftballons is not really a translation of the original text. For example there is nothing about a toy shop in the original German text. I still like both texts though :-)
In the English version by Nena, they sing about a toy shop.  Oreo
They cover the English version with one verse from the German version, both by Nena. Themaninthesuitcase (talk) 20:39, 21 March 2008 (UTC)

message: I removed the following external link:
http:// www.petatv.com/tvpopup/getvideo.asp?video=free_me
The title was "Music video Free Me - An acoustic walk through the horror of factory farms". I'd be glad to put the external link back if someone will write something else in the article about this particular song & music video, and come up with a less biased description than "the horror of factory farms". 76.211.22.32 05:44, 18 June 2007 (UTC)

message: By my accounts, Goldfinger is a punk rock band, not a pop punk band, as it says in the article.
They meet the criteria of angry, shouted lyrics in songs like "Open Your Eyes". Just wanted some feedback. -- Aaron  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 161.184.176.7 (talk) 16:30, 23 September 2007 (UTC)

message: The title is Foot In Mouth not Foot in mouth : live. I have also checked the CD and it has no mention of MOJO Records on it anywhere.  The band recorded this themselves on a UK tour in 2001 and it was only ever sold from the bands web page and at shows.

message: This seems entirely exaggerated, there are ska songs on pretty much all their albums, even on 2020's Don't Look Back. The fact is Goldfinger is and has always been a ska punk band, with the balance between the two fluctuating.
I'd like to suggest removing claim in the opening paragraph:
However, the releases of Open Your Eyes and Disconnection Notice saw the band shed most of the ska influence, and they have been more commonly placed in the punk rock genre in later years. I am axx (talk) 12:05, 24 August 2023 (UTC)
