Didn't Eric Stefani do most of the keyboards on this album?
The information after the track listing is all POV and should be rewitten or removed. 67.187.189.139 07:19, 20 June 2006
While Disney now uses Magic Kingdom primarily to brand the Orlando park, it was originally used for Disneyland in Anaheim. There's nothing obvious about the cover being an alcoholic beverage label, and there is plenty to indicate that it's a fruit crate label -- particularly the fruit, and the "Sunpist" (ref Sunkist) reference. Patrickbowman ( talk) 20:47, 16 February 2008 (UTC) (UTC)
I listed the genre as "Ska-punk, punk rock, alternative rock." I don't think any of the songs are really "post-grunge." "Don't Speak" and "The Climb" are alternative rock, "Excuse Me Mr." is punk rock, "Sixteen" is the perfect example of ska-punk. I placed the hidden comment for a reason. Is there anyone else with an opinion? Tezkag72 ( talk) 18:09, 13 August 2008 (UTC)
This article is next on my to-do list. Give me a week to finish my current project and I'll start building this up. -- Escape Artist Swyer Talk to me The mess I've made 15:09, 9 September 2008 (UTC)
Some links that people working on the article may find helpful: [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] PiracyFundsTerrorism ( talk) 23:31, 15 September 2008 (UTC)
This was released as an air-play only single in the US but was still a single. In Europe, Australia and Japan it was released as a CD in 1997. We even have a copy of its CD cover in the article. Its precise place in the album's single chronology is unsure, but it was definitely a single. I'm putting it in as the third single. -- Escape Artist Swyer Talk Contributions 20:12, 14 September 2008 (UTC)
With a bit more work (such as rewriting the lead, which I'm about to do) I think this could make featured article status. There's so much information out there, it seems a shame to leave it at a GA nom. Tezkag72 and PiracyFundsTerrorism, how about we hammer this into shape and make a join-nom at FAN when it's up to scratch? -- Escape Artist Swyer Talk Contributions 19:10, 21 September 2008 (UTC)
(outdent)Well we have: '"When we got back, though, the problems started." Stefani has resumed the story. "We were writing and writing, but Interscope was being really wishy-washy about letting us go in the studio. Things just kept getting dragged out... ."
"Months and months and months," emphasizes Young, shaking his head. "We were going insane."' from the source. I'll track down something else if that isn't obvious enough. -- Escape Artist Swyer Talk Contributions 18:36, 21 October 2008 (UTC)
Let me know when you've addressed these issues or if you'd like to discuss further. Nice job so far. — Zeagler ( talk) 23:08, 16 October 2008 (UTC)

Clearly, as the writer admits to only being 8 when the album was released, it is a recent review (rather than being written in 1995 and only having being posted on the site recently). I say we include it as a more recent review. If we get a couple of recent reviews, we could hammer out a third paragraph in the "critical reception" section. Tezkag72, input? -- EA Swyer Talk Contributions 17:02, 26 July 2009 (UTC)
He got back to me! Evan Zelig emailed me back! I obviously cannot post the content of the email here, but the basic gist was that:

Hello from Edinburgh. I've just realised something we're missing from the article. At the bottom we have a "preceded by-succeeded by" box for Billboard number 1. We're going to need boxes like this for every major chart it went to number one at. I'm back in London Friday where I'll have proper internet. -- EA Swyer Talk Contributions 12:47, 23 August 2009 (UTC)
