[edit] Title of Track 10

Where did the "In The Fall" name come from? Lyrics from their official site list the song only as "The Navy Song".

On places where it's for sale like Amazon and Bol.com it says In The Fall. Anyway, rather than editing it back and forth, to simply wait a few days until it's released seems like a better plan to me. --Frenzie 10:26, 25 June 2006 (UTC)
In Germany it was released on June 23., and it's definitely called "The Navy Song". --62.225.61.228 22:11, 25 June 2006 (UTC)
I think that the bands own website and track listing should have the final authority on matters like this. —(chubbstar) — talk | contrib | 14:03, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
Yes, The official site says it's "The Navy Song", and so does my album cover, which I purchased here in Canada, a copy "Manufactured and distributed by Warner Music Canada Co., 3381 Steeles Avenue East, Suite 100, Toronto, ON, M2H 3S7. A Warner Music Group Company." I think that should settle it there. I can scan it for you guys if necessary. -- Reaper X 20:13, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Bonus Tracks

According to an e-mail by Billy Talent, If you live in the US and purchase BILLY TALENT II from Best Buy, you'll receive a special digipak version with a 28-page booklet, plus a bonus disc with 2 songs previously unreleased in the US. Please find the names of these songs and place a section called "Bonus Tracks" and list these under it. Also for a digital album, purchase from iTunes US and get an exclusive bonus track (a cover of the Buzzcocks' "Ever Fallen In Love") plus an interactive booklet. Please place this song in "Bonus Tracks" also. Thank You --KChuck27 21:20, 16 July 2006 (UTC)-kChuck

[edit] UK Bonus Tracks

The two songs listed as UK bonus tracks were previously released (I added the info of their previous releases). However, I couldn't find any source that these two songs are bonus tracks on II. Anyone have a source? –Dvandersluis 17:01, 9 July 2006 (UTC)

The “source” is an e-mail given out on June 27/the day the album was released. It is also on the website and myspace. Also they are not UK bonus tracks they are Best Buy Purchase digipak version bonus tracks. Also on the subjects of “sources” I have never scene it sourced that “Beach Balls” and “When I Was A Little Girl” are the Best Buy Purchase digipak version bonus tracks.--KChuck27 21:20, 16 July 2006 (UTC)-kChuck

[edit] genre

The genre of this album is different from the genre of the band Billy Talent, someone make them consistent, or I will if there are no objections. I would go ahead and do it straight away, but I gather that this is the best way to do it without incurring the wrath of whoever wrote it.

[edit] Album title

According to Billboard [1] and the official Billy Talent site (Watch & Listen page), the name of this album is just "II". I'm not sure how to integrate this into the article, but the title of the article is probably wrong, as it's referring to "Billy Talent II" as the title of the album.

Also, somewhat similarly, I removed the line "The roman numeral "II" in the album title was done because the band wanted all the songs to be highlighted, not just one." from the article because (1) it was unsourced, and (2) it made no sense. Anyone know what was trying to be conveyed? –Dvandersluis 05:06, 9 July 2006 (UTC)

I would interpret that as meaning that the band didn't want to have a title track get all the focus. they wanted attention spread throughout the album. but... to do that just nam the album something related and not from a track listing. the bands logic is wrong be i think i see where they were going (chubbstar) — talk | contrib | 14:02, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Song Meanings

I dougt on some of these, whoever put these there would put where these were confirmed. becuase i think "perfectworld" isnt about a prostitute, since it infers in the song that they were together for a while, not just a 1night stand. this was deleted on the 1st billy talent album page so im gonna delete this here.Musicslave 23:13, 8 April 2007 (UTC)

It's pure trivia, and very unencyclopedic. Leave it out, or put it into prose for the appropriate song article. -- Reaper X 03:10, 13 April 2007 (UTC)
