Talk:I Think We're Alone Now

message: I'd like to see at very least least the date of each previous version. This might give a clearer picture of possible influences on subsequent releases.

thread_title: Previous versions

message: I have to agree with earlier complaints. There is no reason why this article should be exclusively about the Tiffany or Girls Aloud versions. Where is the information on the far more famous original Tommy James recording? 23skidoo 19:41, 7 January 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Where's the original version?

message: I don't believe that it is necessary to remove relevant information about the other two versions, to give priority to the original. If you have useful information to add, regarding the original, by all means add it. However, do not remove content for the sake of making other limited information more prominent in the article.

thread_title: Geeknhard's editing

message: Its really pathetic when a band does covers and passes them off as their own when the original is the best. Over time the original is forgotten and these artist that have no talent other than their voice just revive an old song and never let stupid people know that they copied it. The public needs to be reminded that Tommy James created this song, Tiffany didn't, and those no talent girls outloud hacks sure as hell didn't either. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Geeknhard (talk • contribs) 04:00, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Tommy James deserves the spotlight 

message: At least change it so Tommy James' discography is there instead of the cover versions. They really don't need all that mention, all they need is something like, They did a cover of this song! —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Geeknhard (talk • contribs) 22:57, 4 April 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Well its just a big ad for the crappy band 

message: I don't believe that Me First and The Gimme Gimmes have ever covered this.  I'm guessing that it is confusion with the Snuff cover. Jeff d kirby (talk) 08:20, 13 January 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Me First And The Gimme Gimmes 

message: I'm surprised this article says nothing of the attempts in the 60's to have this song banned from radio. It was considered to be too sexual for the public airwaves.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Sexmoron (talk • contribs) 03:20, 23 July 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  What about the radio ban of the Shondell's version? 

message: Since the image, :File:IThinkWereAloneNowCD1Cover.jpg, has removed by one editor citing WP:NFCC and reverted by two other editors also citing WP:NFCC, I am starting a discussion here so that the image is not deleted simply for being orphaned.
The single cover for the Girls Aloud cover version pass the points of WP:NFCC. WP:NFCC#3 is met because the single covers is used for identification its respective versions and the Chairmen of the Board single cover cannot convey equivalent significant information and/or identification of Girls Aloud's version. WP:NFCC#8 is met because the single cover is used for identification and the image increases readers' understanding and not having it would be detrimental to the understanding of Girls Aloud's version.  The single cover passes the first example of acceptable use of fair images at WP:NFCI: "Cover art: Cover art from various items, for visual identification only in the context of critical commentary of that item (not for identification without critical commentary)."
The current consensus for single covers in section infoboxes to represent notable cover versions are that they pass WP:NFCC and WP:NFCI. Since WP:SONGCOVER says notable cover versions should be covered in the article about the song and not have its own article, but if it had their own articles, the image would be acceptable there, so it is acceptable in the sections of the song article. The single cover is not alternate covers for the Chairmen of the Board cover, it is the primary cover for Girls Aloud's version and should be treated as such. If it is felt that the image should still be removed than the image should be taken to Wikipedia:Files for deletion instead of simply removed from the article.--SuperHotWiki (talk) 01:34, 29 August 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: Can you point me at the critical commentary of the cover image, SuperHotWiki? Not of the song, but specific commentary about the imagery on the cover that the picture of the cover helps readers to understand? I don't see a word about it in the article.—Kww(talk) 01:39, 29 August 2013 (UTC)

thread_title:  Fair use of notable cover version single cover 

message: Is it just me or is the section for the "Girls Aloud" version much longer than it should be... 9 subsections for that one, compared to 6 for Tiffany and only 1 for the original?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 32.212.131.54 (talk) 00:56, 4 September 2016 (UTC)
