I've reverted some of your changes for the following reasons:

  • "Nights in White Satin" does feature two Andalusian cadences right where the flute solo begins
  • While "Hey Joe" by Jimi Hendrix has no cadence as such, the version by Deep Purple contains a few (in the Hammond organ intro)
  • Nina Simone should be alphabetized for "n," not "s," since this name is only a pseudonym

However, thanks for stopping by! (Impy4ever (talk) 00:02, 17 February 2010 (UTC))Reply

Makes Me Wonder

edit

I thought there is an Andalusian cadence in the line "I wonder if it even makes a difference to try, so this says goodbye." It definitely sounds like Bm-A-G-F#7 to me.168.122.228.46 (talk) 15:01, 8 July 2010 (UTC)Reply

Nope, the second chord is not an A, but a Bm7/A, which is expressed tonality-wise as a i2 instead of a  VII. And that's not the only difference between the two progressions, but it is enough to disqualify the song. Sorry. – Impy4ever (talk) 19:24, 18 July 2010 (UTC)Reply

More Spanish songs

edit

We speak about an Andalusian cadence. I would expect more Spanish songs there. With my limited language skills, I can not effectively search for it myself. Does anyone come up with some spanish examples? --Mjchael (talk) 08:51, 11 December 2018 (UTC)Reply

alphabetization

edit

This page is inconsistent about where artists are filed: some are by first name (e.g., Bob Dylan, David Bowie, Quincy Jones, Carrie Underwood), some are by last name (e.g., Michael Jackson, Ray Charles, Jim Steinman, Elton John), and at least one is in both places (Richard Hell). I'm happy to clean this up, but I'd like to know which system to use. Last name is more conventional, and is how most of these artists are filed on their own pages via {{DEFAULTSORT}}, so that seems the more user-friendly choice. 136.49.132.178 (talk) 07:43, 26 March 2021 (UTC)Reply

I alphabetized everyone by last name. Alan Parsons Project, whose filing is ambiguous—being an amalgam of a person's name and a band name—I left under A, though it could just as easily go under P. 2605:A601:AADC:2100:7046:91F6:5AD0:510F (talk) 07:37, 21 July 2021 (UTC)Reply
