message: Moved from the article to here, where it belongs:
:"As of 2005, this song was referenced in some song with the quote "I was young and foolish, didn't know why".  If a Wikipedian can name it, add it to this article."

message: There is a song that I am dying to download that was made this decade with the lyric "I was young and foolish, I didn’t know what I was doin’
I didn’t know I lost you till you’re gone
She had a pretty face that drove men wild
I even wanted her to have my child".  I don't know the name of it.  If a Wikipedian can name it for me along with the song artist, give me a message! --SuperDude 22:20, 21 Apr 2005 (UTC)

message: I think this is one of the most successful bands I have looked up on wikipedia without a detailed discography.  Also, Charlie's solo career should be updated on this page if not given its own page. The single "Charlie, Last Name Wilson" was a decent hit last year. TonyTheTiger 21:19, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

Is that a conicidence or should that be added? MJN SEIFER 18:43, 30 April 2007 (UTC)

message: Someone using the IP address 71.105.104.206 has been spamming pages on black musicians, adding promotional material on "George Smith" (no idea who that is) and his son, an alleged "singer/dancer/producer" called "2 Krayze."  This kid is a Disney Channel artist and a relative non-entity.  A quick Google search for "2 krayze" reveals that someone has been copying 2 Krayze's profile from the Disney Channel website and pasting it into the comments sections on black-culture articles and blogs.  It looks like this kid and his family (who are listed as his managers/agents/whatever) are orchestrating a deliberate spam campaign to manufacture fake publicity for 2 Krayze.  Other articles that this spammer has attacked include Perri "Pebbles" Reid, Loose Ends (band)‎ and Bobby Brown.  I'm not sure whether "George Smith" did in fact manage all these artists, but all the edits that 71.105.104.206 has made look a lot like spam.  I'm going to revert all the edits that this person has made and put the above pages on my watchlist.  If anybody has more information about this spammer, please leave a message on my talk page.

replies: text: The spammer, using the IP address 67.182.72.212, added the self-promotional information back to Bobby Brown, Perri "Pebbles" Reid, Loose Ends (band)‎ and Bobby Brown.  I have reverted all those edits, and will leave warnings on the talk page for that user. Does anyone know how to report spam to administrators? Huntthetroll (talk) 21:31, 5 January 2008 (UTC)

message: I want to make a correction - The song name 'Burn Rubber' (Why You Wanna Hurt Me) is the right name.  There's no "On me".  I don't want to ruin the link to the page, so I would like someone else to make the right modifications.  Thank you.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.233.4.135 (talk) 01:20, 10 February 2008 (UTC)

message: Why is the dance where you sit in each other legs like in a boat associated with "oops upside your head"? Who started it, where does it come from?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.241.238.111 (talk) 21:25, 6 May 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Dance

message: The article currently states "the album almost became their first in years to miss the Billboard 100, peaking at a mere #159." I'm confused how it could have *almost missed* the Billboard 100 (meaning that it did not miss but came close), if it only actually hit #159. Which is it? I suspect the word "almost" should be removed. MXVN (talk) 02:53, 5 April 2011 (UTC)
