Talk:Jealous Guy

message: "The song is notable for its haunting and memorable minor key melody and its lyric of remorse"
Technically, Jealous Guy is in a major key - G major, to be exact.  Maybe I'm splitting hairs here, but I think if the words "minor key" were removed from the above sentence it would become completely accurate and retain all of its meaning.
Notice how nobody has mentioned that John slept with another woman during his 'lost weekend'.  How can people learn about and love the real John Lennon if such blatant facts are covered up?
:That's partly what he's apologising about you dozy twonk. No-one's trying to cover it up, we all know it happened. It was actually Yoko's idea.--Crestville 16:39, 3 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Oh yeah, defenately. Off the top of my head, I don't know the facts well enough but if you think you can fit it in, have a crack. But we're not trying to cover up the facts, we just didn't think it was that essential.--Crestville 23:59, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

message: Hi,
I have removed the lyrics added to this page. Although still officially unreleased 'Child of Nature' has been copyrighted (and will remain so until 2050). Without permission from the copyright holder it is an infringement of these rights to publish the lyrics in any form. 
Please do not add complete reproductions of lyrical material that are still in copyright. As interesting as they are to read it is not permissible. The only way to deviate this is to add a link to another page where the lyrics have been reproduced. Although the link page will also be a breach of the copyright it will at least be someone else who is infringing this and not Wikipedia.

message: The song features Klaus Voorman on the bass. However, the sencence "The bass guitar on the song is played by Klaus Voormann, a friend of The Beatles from their Hamburg days.", based on where it is, seems or it may imply that the Child of nature recordings have Voorman on the bass. If that is not the case, then the sentence should be moved to the section about the release.

message: Is this section truly of enough importance to weigh so prominent in this songs legacy?
Yes, a digital download of this performance indeed charted #4 in a national chart (the French-speaking region of Belgium). But this was in direct relation to the artist performing it a few days earlier on the final episode of the Belgian version of "The Voice" (which he won, BTW.) It doesn't contribute much to the notability of this song beyond that. The significance of this performance is simply a transient moment reflecting its winning usage on a TV show contest that resulted in a surge of downloads in the days afterword. It's legacy doesn't extend beyond that. IMO, it merits mention in the broader "Other versions" section (Where Bellarosa's version is already noted) but to give it it's own section seems a false equivalence in relation to the original Lennon version and the more accomplished Roxy Music cover version. 
Of course, if an editor feels a chart appearance of any kind merits its own section, then fine. But note that many wikipedia pages for notable songs have charting cover version that are often simply relegated to an "other versions" type sections. ShelbyMarion (talk) 16:26, 27 August 2020 (UTC)
