Talk:I Want You (Savage Garden song)

message: I was going to correct this to "video," as I know there are two video versions, but I wanted to double-check that there wasn't a low-budget recording of the song that was released in Australia, after which they re-recorded the song with a bigger budget before international release.  Why is there no mention of the song's charting in the U.S. or other international territories?  Abrazame 03:34, 20 October 2007 (UTC)

message: "Mine" is not listed as a b-side on any of the several single tracklists given in the article, so why is it listed in the infobox?  Abrazame 03:38, 20 October 2007 (UTC)

message: Do you think it might be a good idea to put a page redirecting from the phrase "chic-a-cherry cola"? I know that this has nothing at all to do with the title of the song, but this song gets mis-named so frequently that I'm almost certain many people are missing the article entirely because there's nothing to go on if you search for that in Wikipedia. "Chica cherry cola" has, in a fashion, become an unofficial title for the song. I'd put up a redirect myself, but honestly, I don't know how. Do you all think this is a good idea?

message: This song sounds a heck of a lot like the early 70s song "Life Is A Rock," how they got away with this I'll never know

message: As it currently reads, the Wikipedia article says that the song is coming from a more "straight" perspective, specifically:
"Singer Darren Hayes described it as a song about "a male energy" expressing its love, in contrast to some of his solo songs where he was more likely to adopt the perspective of a gay individual."
However, his statement on the interview has him saying that I Want You was one of the tracks that did have a coded gay message in it,https://www.billboard.com/articles/news/pride/7834056/savage-garden-darren-hayes-coming-out-reactions-interview and the song itself makes no reference towards the person being sung about being male or female. 
I think because of this, it would be appropriate to change the references to "woman" in the first description to being gender neutral, since it was written with a gay male perspective, but the song itself was not supposed to be explicit enough to out Hayes as gay. In addition, the last sentence should reflect the singer's perspective had a coded gay message, as was implied in the interview.
I will make these changes, but am pretty new to Wikipedia, so if I misstep somehow, please let me know/make the appropriate changes.
