Infobox and lead[edit]

The alternative text needs to describe the image, not just say what it is. Done
The label parameter needs filling in. Done
The format parameter says digital download but the release history says mainstream radio airplay, which is it? Comment: It was actually released as a digital download (see "Top Albums and Songs By Tove Lo") but there is no information from reliables sources about the specific release date, because the iTunes link was not archived and is currently unavailable. The same situation happens with 7digital (see "Also by Tove Lo"). Musixmatch claims the release date was 5 November 2012, but I don't know if it is a reliable source.

Hmm, it will have to do, I'd add the source to the release history under digital download, and change the release date in the infobox. Everything else looks great, so once this is done I will pass the article. Azealia911 _talk

Done. --Paparazzzi (talk) 07:43, 3 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Background and release[edit]

Would it be possible to use a more interesting caption? Perhaps something like "Tove Lo (pictured) wrote "Love Ballad" after confessing to feeling "lost" when writing songs for others" Done
"songs; she" → "songs, and she" Done
Link Nordic. Done
"as a bonus track on her debut studio album" → "as a bonus track on the North American version of her debut studio album" Done

Music video[edit]

Per WP:NFCC point 8, "Non-free content is used only if its presence would significantly increase readers' understanding of the article topic, and its omission would be detrimental to that understanding." How does the screenshot of the music video help us understand the music video? Have critics praised the black paint? Did they find it odd? Done
No reviews or comments made about the music video by anyone? Comment: The only comment from a reliable source is one by Michael Craigg wich says "The video was self-produced alongside Swedish artists Motellet Film and features a lot of paint, some rugby players and a fairly cold Lo".

Live performances[edit]

"London In Stereo" → "London in Stereo" Done

References[edit]

#8 – Unlink The Guardian Done
I see you've archived some links, the following look suspectable to link rot and I recommend archiving them also; 15, 19, 20, 24. Done

Post-review comments[edit]

This is a really strong article, it was challenging for me to find comments to address at all. On-hold for seven days, not that you'll need them. Azealia911 _talk 13:48, 1 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
