Talk:Ain't No Mountain High Enough

Relationship to Tears Dry on Their Own by Amy Winehouse

"In 2006, Amy Winehouse recorded the song Tears Dry On Their Own for her album Back to Black, which keeps the melody and instrumentation of Ain't No Mountain High Enough, but which contains different, original lyrics written by Winehouse." I don't think this is accurate. The melody is not the same (not even close), though the background instrumental arrangement is identical (and sounds as if it were sampled from the original).

Hmph, there was a full discussion here on this still visible only the other day. I don't know how to restore it - could someone? It resolved this issue. 87.194.30.190 (talk) 11:33, 1 October 2010 (UTC)

The discussion you're thinking of is on that song's talk page, Talk:Tears Dry on Their Own#Ain't No Mountain High Enough. FeRD_NYC (talk) 00:24, 4 January 2012 (UTC)

Key of Diana Ross version

Just noticed this:

"This version resides in the key of C minor, which has been associated with heroic struggle since Beethoven's time, yet (curiously) remains one of the lesser used key signatures in all music of today and in the past. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C_minor"... Again, I don't have a source to dispute this, and don't have the sheet music, but I do have a good ear and just listened to this Diana Ross version and I didn't hear anything that could be interpreted as being in the key of C minor. (The first chord is an A flat major seventh). (Not sure why that statement would belong here even if true, for that matter. ) InsultComicDog (talk) 04:04, 25 August 2011 (UTC)

Orphaned references in Ain't No Mountain High Enough

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Ain't No Mountain High Enough's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "officialcharts.com":

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT⚡ 06:18, 27 August 2019 (UTC)
