message: Muffin was also a colloquial diminutive for a pitiful creature i.e. Ragamuffin. So the muffin man is likely a beggar or poor man that lived on Drury Lane - a fashionable part of London.

5. F     | Eb    | F     | Eb    | F     | Eb    | D      |      ||
(solo starts)
6. G     | F     | G     | F     | G     | F     | E      |      ||
(solo continues)
7.  See #1
("She is calling from the deep . . . ")
8.  See #2
9.  See #3
ETC.
The previous description of the song's key changes was incorrect;  someone had written that the song cycles through ELEVEN (?!?) different keys, and ends on G#.  Since the key is always rising a whole step with each change, it's impossible to get to the key of G# (Assuming, of course, that when we say "the key of A", we are referring to a section that starts on A.)  It only cycles through six keys and repeats the process.  I rewrote this section to make it accurate, but I can't say I wrote it particularly well.

Talk:The Partisan

message: Can I clarify what this page is about?
"La complainte du Partisan" is the French resistance song by Ann Marly, described here.
"The Partisan" is an english language version of the same song, covered by various artists, most notably (perhaps) by Leonard Cohen.
If this is about the French song, it should be moved to that title; if it's the english song the text and categories should reflect that. Moonraker12 (talk) 13:33, 2 October 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Hmmm.  There's nothing to indicate that the authors intended the page to be specifically about the English versions of the song, so I'd say the page is about the song in general, so using the original title (in French) indeed seems correct.  I'll move it now. Gronky (talk) 13:35, 29 December 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Subject 

message: This previous version of the article lists several cover versions removed September 3, 2019, as many of the available sources were not that good and none had much of value to say about their respective versions. Per WP:SONGCOVER and WP:SONGTRIVIA: additions need to be more than verifiably existent, their existence needs to have weight. It has been quite frustrating, for example, to find bundles of references in great quality sources to Joan Baez having recorded a version, but not to find anyone worth listening to say anything substantial about her version. Only because so many sources reference it, have I left it in. Consider this talk page message a heads-up and a cry for help; there are many other versions, but over the course of weeks of research I found almost nothing useful to say about them. Please don't try to shoehorn empty cruft into this article, but make every effort to track down and utilise good sources to expand the coverage of covers if possible.

thread_title: Cover versions

message: Now that article has been renamed to the name of the most famous Leonard Cohen version, I think, as was discussed in the move discussion, that a restructuring is needed in order to make this article coherent.  Point being that the article despite bearing the name of the Cohen version focuses very little on that version and does not even mention it in the first paragraph of the lead.  I am proposing that without eliminating any of the existing information we shift this article to center the Cohen version.  AquitaneHungerForce (talk) 23:19, 9 August 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: Cohen's version is referred to throughout the article as it is highly influential and widely referred to in sources. As a rough measure of focus; the existence of the words "Cohen" (61 times) "d'Astier" (28 times), "Zaret" (27 times) and "Marly" (20 times) may be compared. Cohen and his version are referenced in every section except the "origins" (now "La Complainte du partisan") which is only proper. Fred Gandt · talk · contribs 14:18, 11 August 2020 (UTC)

thread_title:  Outside references 

message: "which is derived from the Hungarian minor scale (gypsy/romani scale[1])" I find this pretty dubious and I doubt the composer said this, and that rather it is speculation from the author of that book. The "unusual chromaticisms" in the Pink Panther theme usually come from sliding down from a note of the E minor scale, for instance the pairs D#-E, F#-G, B-C and A#-B. When you think of them as pairs of adjacent semitones and how the idea of playing them together is used throughout the main theme then you can see quite clearly that there's no need for a Romani explanation. Therefore I think that this bit of speculation shouldn't be presented as if it was certain fact. --90.156.104.160 (talk) 12:18, 27 September 2017 (UTC)
