Lady Gaga - The Fame Monster was a separate release in Australia

[edit]

I propose that Lady Gaga's entry for having 7 Top 5 singles from the same album be deleted, as ARIA (on which this page is based) considered "The Fame Monster" to be a completely separate release to "The Fame", and charted it as such. Consequently, it is misleading to combine the two for a chart record, when ARIA (and, indeed, Lady Gaga herself), considered them to be separate releases. Katy Perry's "record" should be asterisked, too, as the album was re-released with additional tracks (Billboard prefaces her chart record when discussing it). However, Katy's is a different situation to Lady Gaga's.211.31.244.187 (talk) 10:57, 19 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hey Jude - The Beatles

[edit]

I can find no List of Australian No.1 Singles that has 'Hey Jude' at No.1 for 16 Weeks. The 1979 Billboard Article, that claimed that it was a 16 Week No.1, was wrong. The Wikipedia Page, of 1960's Australian No.1 Singles, gives it no more than 13 Weeks at No.1. Another source gives it 14 Weeks at No.1. So, 'Fernando', by ABBA, is Australia's 'Most Weeks at No.1' Single, with its 14 No.1 Weeks. 'Hey Jude' is 2nd= with 'Gangsta's Paradise'.[[86.13.2.211 (talk) 22:46, 14 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Pronunciation

[edit]

I feel like it could use a pronunciation guide. Is it pronounced

- ah-ree-uh, like the musical feature;

- ay-ree-uh, more consistent with Australian English;

- ay-ar-eye-ay, where the acronym is spelt like a string of letters

Being British, I see barely any reference to them in sources I am exposed to, so perhaps an Aussie might be able to help out and provide an RS/IPA? Couruu (talk) 15:10, 5 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
