Date of Birth

A date of birth of November 1979 would mean that the artist was 15 at the time of his first hit yet I have no recollection of him being hailed as a child prodigy or anything like that at the time. Does anyone know if this is his real date of birth or not? The only internet pages that I can find with this date on it are this wikipedia page and a page on last.fm. The information on the latter would have almost certainly been poached from here. Triangle e 09:10, 13 April 2006 (UTC)

Well done to the person that changed the date of birth to the correct date!Triangle e 07:37, 22 April 2006 (UTC)

In April 2006 Nick Bracegirdle is 35 years old which can be seen to be realistic from dated live shows/photos etc. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 81.179.230.137 (talk • contribs) 18:52, 27 April 2006 (UTC).

I assume 81.179.230.137 (who I'm guessing is also 81.178.98.146 and 81.178.84.177) knows what he/she is talking about with regards to the (seemingly "insider") information recently. However, if this information is available from a publically available, non-Wikipedia source, this article could then become more verifiable through citing that source, which would be very helpful. (Particularly if we ever get to the point of nominating this article for featured status.) –Unint 04:46, 29 April 2006 (UTC)

Visions of Ibiza

Found no mention of this particular album, so I added this album in the albums sections. But it's basicaly a compilation. Maybe this should be in its own section as a compilation? joeinthebox 09:01, 31 January 2007 (UTC)

There certainly should be something to indicate that it's not a studio album. On the other hand, I'm not too sure about making a whole section for a single item. Do whatever works best, I suppose. –Unint 15:41, 31 January 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Chicane - Offshore (Original ambient version).ogg

Image:Chicane - Offshore (Original ambient version).ogg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template.

The image Image:Chicane feat.

In particular, for each page the image is used on, it must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Please check

Removed this irrelevant and poorly written paragaph

Trainspotters may have noticed that when "Stoned in Love" was sung live by Tom Jones on The Jonathan Ross show it was in a lower key than the CD release. Jones appears to use his entire vocal range in this lower key. This may suggest that the CD version contains processed vocals which have been shifted higher in pitch, and hence at least partly explain why the vocal sounds younger and different from the classic Tom Jones sound (Madonna's vocals were similarly pitched higher on "Like a Virgin" to achieve a younger vocal). Jones also admitted to have recorded the verses consciously without vocal vibrato to be more in keeping which a dance-oriented track. On this track Chicane has moved yet further towards embracing electric bass and guitars, but underpinned with Chicane melody, progressions and keyboard elements.
