replies: text: Well, the problem is that Hoskyns' book is a reliable source, and - so far as I know - you are not (but correct me if I'm wrong). What Hoskyns says is: "A brilliantly disingenuous ode to melancholy, the song was inspired by Bryan's memory of waiting for a girlfriend and based on Prokofiev's Lieutenant Kijé Suite..."   Now, Hoskyns may or may not have made a mistake, but the fact remains that that is what he has written.   I don't have any expertise or knowledge in relation to Prokofiev so I can't comment.   Anyway, rather than discussing it here, you need to make your argument on the article talk page so that other editors can contribute.   I'll copy this exchange over there.

replies: text:  I know the definition of a reliable source. I don't suggest that a finding of my own should be included in the article. I am just asking to remove a doubtful, unspecified and undocumented remark, made by an author who's book may be a reliable source in many respects, but not in this one.

text: I think it would be best to rewrite the sentence as follows: "The song was inspired by his memory of waiting for a girlfriend. One commentator suggests that it was based on a theme from Sergei Prokofiev's music for Lieutenant Kije. (+ ref) Hartenhof (talk) 07:26, 14 June 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: OK, I've now qualified the statement.  Thanks.  Ghmyrtle (talk) 07:54, 14 June 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: Thanks a lot, it seems ok to me now. I am still curious about what part of Lt Kijé Hoskyns actually means. Prokofiev's orchestral suite has 5 movements (approx. 20 mins.) and was derived from the even longer film score that he composed in 1934. I'm playing it now, and no Alone Again Or whatsoever. Or? ;-) Hartenhof (talk) 09:18, 14 June 2020 (UTC)
