Release date

[edit]

@LOVI33: Who or what defines the release date of a single?. All Future Nostalgia singles dates have a date of one day before to the release of their music videos. Also, there is a line in Future Nostalgia where it says the launch date would be the same July 10: "Hallucinate" was announced as the fourth single on 3 July 2020, along with its artwork and 10 July release date.[1]

Alexismata7, what defines a single release date can be many things, but the most accurate one is a radio impact. Although Lipa claimed the release date for "Hallucinate" was 10 July, she probably meant its music video release, which it was. A music video does not make a song a single! It's offical single release is 17 July due to a radio impact in the United Kingdom which can be found in the release history section. LOVI33 23:18, 21 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@LOVI33: I don't know, I find it severely strange that "Don't Start Now" was released on October 31 and its music video premiered just few later, for example and like that with the other singles in the album. First time I read that the single's date is defined by a radio impact. Alexismata7 (talk) 01:24, 22 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Alexismata7, a single's release after its parent album is ALWAYS defined by its radio impact. As I said before, a music video does not make a song a single, making its release date is irrelevant. Also, not all singles are have the same release formula, don't compare it to other singles. Thanks. LOVI33 01:50, 22 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@LOVI33: I think we should talk again about "Hallucinate" release date. Since BBC releases aren't counted now as a single releases and they are kept removed from "Release history" sections, then "Hallucinate"'s release date should be the same as music video premiere date, so 10 July 2020. Well, the song was also released earlier to Russian radios on 4 May 2020, but I would rather consider it as a promo single release (like "911" which was a similar case to "Hallucinate"). infsai (dyskusja) 17:37, 30 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah Infsai, I was just about to change it. The song appears as a digital single on Lipa's website so I think 10 July 2020 is an appropriate release date. Also music videos are a form of streaming further proving this release date is more accurate. I'll also make sure to add the Russia one. LOVI33 18:54, 30 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Song is so amazing that it should have been released in 2019 instead of 2020.

[edit]

I agree and I may sound stupid and I get it the song is released on 17 July 2020, but why didn't Dua Lipa released this music way back in 2019 instead of 2020? On 16 July 2019 for example? because she must have been working on this song since 2018, why didn't she release it in 2019? --2001:8F8:172D:A8D9:E59C:D729:A5C9:B067 (talk) 14:39, 29 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Improved to Good Article status by LOVI33 (talk). Self-nominated at 20:33, 19 October 2020 (UTC).[reply]

  • Substantial article, meeting of GA criteria implicates DYK pass. Article was promoted to GA status on the 15th. Editor is QPQ exempt. ALT0 doesn't make sense so I've struck it, but ALT1 and ALT2 are both good options. Morgan695 (talk) 22:39, 19 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Live performances section

[edit]

Lipa performed "Hallucinate" at Studio 2054, BBC Radio 1 Live Lounge, and most recently at the Elton John AIDS Foundation Academy Award Party. These should be added to the article so it can continue qualifying for GA status.--NØ 11:55, 26 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you MaranoFan. I have created the section. LOVI33 13:31, 26 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I just finished adding the Brits to the live performances section and noticed Binksternet had removed it earlier. I disagree with removal as this specific performance has drawn coverage from reliable secondary sources including Billboard and Pitchfork, justifying the due weightage of a one-sentence mention.--NØ 12:07, 26 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I had removed it when it was unreferenced. Being part of a medley brings it down in importance, but getting mentioned in the media brings it up. Binksternet (talk) 15:46, 26 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
