b/w ?
"My Flash on You" b/w "Fortune Teller" — what does b/w mean? – Kerαunoςcopia◁galaxies 23:36, 10 June 2011 (UTC)
- b/w = backed with. It's standard recording industry speak when listing a single's A-side and B-side. Maybe it should be changed though, to make it more obvious for those who have perhaps not heard the term before. You must've realised that it was referring to the A-side and B-side of each single though, no? --Kohoutek1138 (talk) 10:10, 11 June 2011 (UTC)
- Hey, thanks for the fast reply! No, call me stupid, but I thought it was some term meaning "working title" or something. Industry lingo definitely can hamper an article's accessibility. I think "backed with" can be used, as long as it's clarified as to what it means (within the article). – Kerαunoςcopia◁galaxies 10:24, 11 June 2011 (UTC)
- Actually using the words "backed with" might be a bit clunky, I think. As far as I can see, either we just seperate the different sides with a slash symbol ("My Flash on You"/"Fortune Teller") or we just list the A-sides of each release to avoid the confusion entirely. --Kohoutek1138 (talk) 09:29, 12 June 2011 (UTC)
British Charts
The single did get into the charts no matter what it states here. I know that because I bought the single as a result of looking over the charts in a record shop. I think it peaked at around 40 - 50; or perhaps a little lower, but certainly in the top 100. I think the British charts referred to in the article just cover either the top 20 or the top 30. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.2.57.146 (talk) 13:26, 21 May 2012 (UTC)
