The singles project says that the chronologies should be organised so that the current single is in the middle, the previous to its left, and the following to its right. If it's the first (or last), then the space to the left (or right) should be either left blank or filled with a dash or "n/a"; I always prefer the dash, as "n/a" doesn't really seem appropriate, and a blank looks unintional, unfinished.

This doesn't mean that one third provides no information; on the contrary, the fact that the single is the first (or last) is clearly indicated. Changing the positions just to fill up the space confuses matters, because someone used to seeing the current single in the middle will be disorientated.

The whole point of the project is to provide consistency where consistency makes sense, as it does here, I think. --Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 22:30, 19 September 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Leona version query

The article currently states "The song was also recorded by the other The X Factor finalists Raymond Quinn and Ben Mills". however Ben did not make the final, so if he did indeed also cut a version of the song for some reason, this needs to be cited.... ChrisTheDude 09:18, 18 December 2006 (UTC)

It was in the newpapers about ben doing a version... also live on ITV1 he said that he had recorded a rockier version after the tabloids reported he was going to leave the show... he was never that good anyway! 19:33, 24 December 2006 (UTC)

A citation was added between Chris's asking and anon's replying. — AnemoneProjectors (talk) 19:38, 24 December 2006 (UTC)

Leona lewis's single a moment like this extra singles, summertime and sorry seems to be the hardest word, are not live on the x factor, if you compare them they sound completly differant, they are studio versions.

They're live versions, the audience's applause can be heard at the end of both songs. — AnemoneProjectors (talk) 12:23, 4 February 2007 (UTC)

Yes but these are computerised applauds, if you listen carefully to summertime in particular, you can here the big differance between the vocals, for example, when she sings, then you'll spread your wings and fliy to the sky, in the live version she sings high at the 'spread your', but on the single version she only sings high on the spread, instead of using these faulse facts, make sure you know the truth.

Please provide a source for your claims otherwise it is considered original research. — AnemoneProjectors (zomg!) 15:31, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

I suppose yours is original research then, because absolutly no where says they are live perfomances. Keep them studio recordings, because i know for a fact they are, and neither of us have evidence.

I didn't revert the last change, as it's best to leave it out completely. — AnemoneProjectors (zomg!) 21:26, 6 April 2007 (UTC)
