Shouldn't it be upside down? 77.57.11.4 01:44, 2 June 2007 (UTC)Reply

Maybe. I don't own the album—will check. Fvasconcellos (t·c) 15:24, 2 June 2007 (UTC)Reply
OK, apparently the cover of the U.S. promo—sent to radio and such—is indeed upside down. I'll upload another version and add to the album's infobox. Thanks, Fvasconcellos (t·c) 15:55, 2 June 2007 (UTC)Reply

I think it's always upside down, although some databases including amazon have it wrong. At least the version my sister bought in Germany (UPC 724384835224, "Printed in EU") came upside down. And even if you can turn around the liner notes however you want, you can tell that it's supposed to be upside down by the color gradient/stretched picture that is printed on the backsides of both the liner notes and the jewel case itself. -- memset 17:19, 1 November 2007 (UTC)Reply

Credits for 'Unemployed in Summertime'

edit

The article lists the songwriting credits for this song as Torrini and Eg White. This is correct according to the liner notes on my copy of the CD. However, various other sources give the credits as Torrini, White, and David Bowie. This is understandable as the melody of the verses is nearly identical to that of Bowie's 'Quicksand'. I venture a guess that some time after Torrini's song was released, Bowie's publishing rights holder for Quicksand (probably not Bowie himself) noticed the similarity and threatened legal action. But does anyone know?109.158.242.145 (talk) 17:48, 22 October 2011 (UTC)Reply
