Bias[edit]

This page is SOOO biased it's shocking. (unsigned comment by User:195.93.21.103)

I agree. It should be deleted immeadiately. (unsigned comment by User:68.100.113.190)

I agree too. Particularly the section "The Song". I will try to delete the biased parts. --CygnusPius 18:18, 14 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Go ahead CygnusPius, I would do if I was english. Please someone modify the "The name of the song probably refers to unfinished symphonies.", I agree with that but it's only a guessing. Trufetes (talk) 21:59, 25 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Sources[edit]

This looks like it needs a few more sources, especially on the chart listings. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 86.18.60.87 (talk) 10:27, 9 December 2006 (UTC).[reply]

Hello many thanks for the effort. Also, this tune was chosen the #1 club tune of all-time in DJ Magazine, 1998 as voted by DJ's and the readers of the magazine. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mMNuy09omWQ& The issue was "no12/vol2 11-24 apr 98"

Again, cheers for the effort! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.27.77.207 (talk) 01:13, 25 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Quote[edit]

The quote from the song is wrong I fear. I listened three times and it ever says "I know that I'been mad in love before", instead of "I know that I imagined love before" (what is more meaningless too, I think). User:Gubbubu. 89.133.8.58 09:32, 25 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Quote has been corrected. The entire quote now matches what you find in well-regarded lyrics sites (and what you hear on the track!). Centrepull (talk) 09:27, 15 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Either that, or we're all deaf... It's been changed back, so I've corrected it again. GregorB (talk) 21:36, 30 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Incidentally, I always thought the vocal snippet sample on the rhythm track (from Mahavishnu Orchestra) ran "hey baby, he-ey!" - with the plaintive melancholy of the song that (mis)reading seems very fitting. 83.254.154.164 (talk) 05:18, 21 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Unfinished Symphony?[edit]

Added a sentence on the popular mistaken title fort this track. This has been true since the track became popular in 1991 - even radio djs sometimes call it Unfinished Symphony. I remembered because BBC R4 interviewer announced the track in this way on the 'Today' show at approx 8.00am, before interviewing a MA band member, and the interviewee (forget which member) didn't bother to correct him. I did a disambiguation note from Unfinished Symphony too. Centrepull (talk) 09:39, 15 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I think it's also more than worth noting that the band came up with this title as a spin-off to Schubert's brilliant work, "Unfinished Symphony". While no samples of the work are featured in the track, it is a glaring omission not to leave any credit for the master on this page. 98.234.116.213 (talk) 10:42, 6 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The Photo is from the video for "safe from harm" not "unfinished sympathy". —Preceding unsigned comment added by 145.253.3.245 (talk) 13:34, 1 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Music Video[edit]

The article states that the music video for Unfinished Sympathy was directed by Baillie Walsh, but multiple sources list David Lynch as being the director: http://www.thecityofabsurdity.com/bio2.html http://www.filmreference.com/film/43/David-Lynch.html If that is true, clarification is needed on what role each had, if any.

Citation needed[edit]

I wrote most of the original article, and now see it has been peppered with "citation needed". Seriously guys, I write stuff in wikipedia that's accurate. Nearly all of the lists are referenced here at http://www.rocklistmusic.co.uk/ [[1]], you just need to look through to the relevant publications. I've added in most of the citations, someone else can finish the rest. --Confusedmiked (talk) 23:58, 25 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

video flow[edit]

Always thought -and still do- that the tall guy who appears by 0:44 then leads a small boy by the hand is Daddy G. Then it's 3D and, finally, Mushroom.

So it's not only 3D and then Daddy G the band members who score in the video. Why would they leave Mushroom out when everybody else is included? MOUNTOLIVE _{fedeli alla linea} 10:36, 27 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Tina Turner version[edit]

Why does the article not mention that Tina recorded a cover of the song for her 1996 studio album Wildest Dreams? MCMCTT (talk) 05:03, 13 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
