Talk:Doina

message: The pronunciation in IPA is currently not correct. It is not j as "yes". It is just some kind of [i]. I don't know how to correct it, so I leave it as it is. MauriceM3 (talk) 09:54, 4 May 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: IPA

message: Very bizarre article. It doesn't tell much about what Doina is, it just says it's influenced by Turkish or I don't know what. First of all, what Bartok wrote is not to be taken into account considering the date of that writing - after Trianon. It seems to me he was full of prejudices against the Romanian folklore. He was a Hungarian nonetheless and his chauvinism transpires in every word written in that book regarding Romanian folklore and Romanians in general. And all of this without any kind of evidence to sustain its offensive POV. How come if it's inspired by Turkish you cannot find anything like this in Turkish or in the folklore of nations that were clearly and massively influenced by Turkish folklore, like in the Balkans South of Danube. The spreading of Doina also supports the fact that this form of song has nothing to do with the Turks.
As for Garfias, he made some strange connections also, but while he may be wrong, we cannot suspect him of bad intentions. It is not scientific to study Romanian folklore only with the intention of finding Turkish influences. Still he doesn't make ridiculous statements like Bartok did.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Adr2ian (talk • contribs) 20:19, 4 November 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: In fact, Bartok praised the Romanian folklore. The problem is that some Romanians select from Bartok's writings only what they like - everything that contradicts their nationalistic pride is garbage. Bartok's statement was made after analyzing hundreds of songs and no musicologist thought he was biased. Just some Romanians didn't like him talking about the foreign influences and turned him into an anti-Romanian demon. The doina characteristics are presented in the article and they are common for the entire family of related genres. Kenshin (talk) 09:19, 19 November 2009 (UTC)

It's not an original tune.  It is a combination of "Irishman's Heart to the Ladies", "Dancing with Kyle", and "Ookpik Waltz". Of course, dozens of waltzes in that old-time style sound pretty much alike.  69.122.158.213 (talk) 03:02, 9 April 2011 (UTC)

message: is this some kind of a consolation prize/tard cookie we're handing out to frat homos now?  greek organizations are fucking pathetic and have nothing to do with soul music.  this should be unlisted.
how can this possibly be a genre? Im part of a frat, we all love different music althouh my own tastes vary from screamo to hip hop to psy trance to classic rock
some of the guys like jam bands, some of the guys like crust punk
and everyone loves the hip hop and hard rock during the parties
but even with all this isnt the stereotypical sort of music for frat guys to listen to be incubus, dave matthews, that sort of stuff? this whole genre is just some made up,
theres no merit in this article. - Anonymous Brother, AEPi
This has got to be made-up. I'm sorry, but this is all crap. The Sonics? They're not "frat rock." It's not really even open to discussion. At least cite some other guy making up this BS genre instead of creating it out of nowhere. It doesn't even make sense and it seems like lots of other articles would contradict this, seeing as half these bands are 60s garage or psychedelic pop bands.

Talk:Fuji music

message: This article (Fuji Music) is totally bias with the omission of the name and contributions of a Fuji legend, General Kolington Ayinla.

General Kolington Ayinla (Kebe n Kwara) introduced Bata drum, Piano, and Drum set to Fuji music.

Talk:Auf Wiederseh'n, Sweetheart

message: This page claims that Auf Wiederseh'n Sweetheart was the first song recorded by a foreign artist to make number one on the U.S. Billboard charts. However, there had been earlier No.1s by artists not born in the United States: Dick Haymes (born in Argentina of British parents) was No.1 for four weeks in 1943 with You'll Never Know, Anton Karas (born in Austria) whose version of The Third Man Theme was No.1 for eleven weeks in 1950 and Canadian-born Guy Lombardo who had three No.1s including another version of The Third Man Theme in 1950. Although Dick Haymes and Guy Lombardo recorded in the US, the Anton Karas hit was made outside the US so Auf Wiederseh'n Sweetheart cannot claim to be the first non-American recording to reach No.1 in Billboard.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Top40hits (talk • contribs) 14:31, 17 February 2017 (UTC)
