Is the inclusion of Austrlian Urban Singles Chart and UK R&B Chart a breach of wikidia's rules banning component charts? ( Lil-unique1 ( talk) 15:55, 2 August 2009 (UTC))
so i am to take it that the consensus is that UK R&B chart is ok but Australian R&B chart is going to be counted as a component chart? ( Lil-unique1 ( talk) 00:58, 7 August 2009 (UTC))
The link that doesn't work referenced some very strange information, namely that this song's tempo is 144. It is actually half of that, and it's plain it's at a ballad's tempo. Anyone can go and delete my 72 as unreferenced if they like, but the 144 was both wrong and unreferenced. ChildrenDeserveBetter ( talk) 05:03, 27 September 2009 (UTC)
I'm not a huge religious advocate nor "I never meant to start a war," but in terms of chord progression and music resemblance, doesn't "Battlefield" sound like it is a total rip off of Rich Mullins's Awesome God? True, the progressions are very similar, but listen to the chorus section: I never meant to start a war. You know I never wanna hurt you. Don't even know what we're fighting for. Why does love always feel like a battlefield...
This site talks about it a little. It plays the chorus of Battlefield and then about 40 seconds in, it plays Awesome God.
I feel a little shocked that this isn't really mentioned anywhere. I know that "Awesome God" isn't really a popular song on a Top 40 hits station, but it sounds like a complete copy of a popular church song. Anyone else notice this, or is this purely coincidence on the chord progressions? Troyoda1990 ( talk) 20:13, 13 October 2009 (UTC)
I have the exact same question. It's to much the same! I feel the question should be asked and the fact made aware. Hardus H
This is indeed based off of " Awesome God". I have added an attribution to it under the background section. 128.101.188.150 ( talk) 19:16, 26 August 2010 (UTC)
