- "Gonna Make You Sweat (Everybody Dance Now)" by C+C Music Factory features Martha Wash and Freedom Williams.

- “Hey Joe” should be credited to The Jimi Hendrix Experience.

- I also think the Hendrix classic is better titled “Voodoo Child (Slight Return)” rather than Chile - (for discussion on the name confusion, see https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voodoo_Chile)

- The group M|A|R|R|S should be stylised with vertical bars rather than slashes (unless it can’t be like Wikipedia!)

The correct title of the Justin Hinds & The Dominoes track is “Carry Go Bring Come” (not Home) and is written without commas. I’m also pretty sure the original single was credited as being with Tommy McCook and His Ska-Talite (https://www.discogs.com/Justin-Hinds-Th ... ter/665086), so perhaps it should be added to The Skatalites page too?

Thanks, some later bands redid this song. If you are interested in hearing those versions to see which one you like best there is The Skatalites and The Specials w/ Desmond Dekker.

- As with Billy Joel's page, there's a weird gap in the songs section of the Foo Fighters' page

- Menswear should probably be styled as Menswe@r

- The track "Diamonds and Pearls" by Prince should probably use the word 'and' rather than an ampersand, matching the album which uses that styling (the album was released earlier than the single which used an ampersand)

- Prince's "Money Don't Matter 2 Night" was first released on the 1991 'Diamonds and Pearls' album before being released as a single in 1992

- Conversely, an ampersand should be used for the Kings of Leon's album 'Youth & Young Manhood'

- Elvis Presley's eponymous 1968 live action should probably have 'NBC TV Special' in brackets

Henrik, the album "A Date With Elvis" should probably not be listed. It's not a real album, just a collection of older tracks that RCA issued on an album while Elvis was in the army. It's listed as a Collection on RYM.

Not an error, simply a point of discussion (that was sort of discussed during the last all-time songs poll). Since Golden Slumbers/Carry That Weight/The End is list as a single song on AM despite being listed as separate tracks on the album, should this also be done for other instances that are often considered a single entity? For example:

Kraftwerk - Numbers/Computer World 2 (I believe they used to be listed together, don't know why that changed)
Pink Floyd - Brain Damage/Eclipse
Jackson Browne - The Load Out/Stay
Green Day - Brain Stew/Jaded

Popcaan is featured on Saturnz Barz by Gorillaz, but doesn't have an artist page. Is this an error, or is this proper practice?

As discussed in the 1970 poll thread, there are a few date discrepancies on the Toots and the Maytals page, I'd imagine mainly because their work was re-issued so many times for different markets.

Pressure Drop is 1969, not 1970. 54-46 Was My Number is 1968, not 1969.

The original release date of Funky Kingston (both the song and parent album) is 1972, not 1973. But it's the American version released in 1975 that is the acclaimed version- it's this one that Pazz & Jop and Rolling Stone lauded- and it may as well be an entirety different album, only having three tracks in common.

Sorry to be so nitpicking but THE VELVET UNDERGROUND's "White Light/White Heat" is listed as a 1967 record when all the sources I've got say it came out in 1968. And if so, why are all the singles ranked as 1968 recordings? well please explain me, I really don't get it !!!

Suba's São Paolo Confessions - misspelled, correct title is São Paulo Confessions
Tom Waits's Orphans: Brawlers, Bawlers and Bastards - is actually officially titled with an ampersand, Orphans: Brawlers, Bawlers & Bastards

Also, it strikes me as odd that Kleerup doesn't get an artist page / ranking for "With Every Heartbeat". Not too sure about the protocol around listings like these [I'm aware artists who only appear as features generally don't get their own pages] but he's arguably just as much a 'primary artist' on the song as Robyn is, if not more - upon original release the single was credited to "Kleerup with Robyn" and the credit really only got flipped around when it was re-released in the UK and elsewhere months later...

'Digeridoo' by Aphex Twin was originally released under the name 'Aboriginal Mix' on 1991's Analog Bubblebath Vol 2. I don't know if there's any precedent for listing the song with a forward slash (or square brackets) separating the two titles but it could work.
