Tori Amos

Surely the bit about her cover being 'Elegant, sparse sounding' isn't really factual, and more like a crazed Tori obsessed fool

Harmonium

I get miffed when I read articles that cite that the demo of Enjoy The Silence is played on an organ. The reason it's called Enjoy The Silence (Harmonium) is because it's performed on the popular, adopted by South Asia, instrument of the same name! Sure it's an organ of sorts, but it's a very specific one.

Fixed (for future reference, it probably would've been much easier and faster for you to just make the change yourself, instead of writing about it on the talk page). John5008 | talk to me 17:22, 9 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Merge

I'm proposing merging the contents of Enjoy the Silence 04 into this page, much like how I've written Everything Counts to include the original 1983 release and the 1989 live re-release. Rather than doing this immediately, however, I figured it is best to leave it up to discussion first. If anybody has any objections, please let me know...if not, I'll probably do the merging in about a week's time. John5008 | talk to me 20:31, 18 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I concur with the merger. I think you did an excellent job with Everything Counts, and I'd like to see the same thing happen here. Acegikmo1 23:23, 18 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

--- I respectfully disagree with the concept of merging distinct singles. Neither "Everything Counts (Live)" nor "Enjoy the Silence 04" are reissues but, rather, discrete singles (unlike "Strangelove" and "Strangelove 88" which I would agree should be merged). I find it simplistic and reductionistic to merge these distinct recordings, especically if the idea is to catalog the singles historically. 72.132.36.31 23:08, 27 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Alright, there seemed to be no disagreement, so I went ahead with the merger. In addition, I very much appreciate your comments regarding "Everything Counts"...glad to see that didn't go unnoticed. :) John5008 | talk to me 04:10, 24 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

--- I also disagree with the merger on the grounds that they're independent singles. It's fine if something's been reissued, like Strangelove '88, but if they're completely different singles with different catalogue numbers and b-sides, etc. leave well enough alone. I've seen it across the site and it really doesn't work.

Did you know that in Denmark a band of five have named their DM Cover band after this song and the fans leave footprints in the ceiling when hearing one of the greatest tunes out there.

Fair use rationale for Image:EnjoyTheSilenceL12.jpg

Image:EnjoyTheSilenceL12.jpg 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 Wikipedia articles 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. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.
