I agree with this - but still think that Ben Folds' Five has a section that is way too big on the article. I don't understand why that's the one cover of the song that they provide full LP info for... It seems inconsistent and silly.

I think both the fucking ben folds and tim mcgraw bullshit should be removed. i don't think any fucking GREAT artist like Elton should have his singles' wiki pages full of wankers. someone remove it... thanks - gagan

OR

Removed OR. A link to a google search and a mail-order site are hardly reliable sources.212.140.167.99 21:18, 17 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

possible addition

do you think that we should add that it's the last track on "Edit Music for A Film" by UNKLE?

possible addition #2

the version of "ironoc & chipmunk" appered in the movie street dance

Why does the user "Everything counts" keep removing references of this song in the WKRP episode? The song appeared in the episode and there is no disputing that so I am not sure why he keeps removing it.

Tiny Dancer also appears on WKRP in Cincinnati, Season 2, Episode 17: The Americanization of Ivan. The character Ivan, a Russian visitor who wishes to defect to the United States with the help of the radio station employees says to both Bailey Quarters and Les Nessman, "Hold me closer tiny dancer." The song also plays at the end of the episode. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.53.101.212 (talk) 03:45, 29 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Marco Demark

Can't believe the article doesn't mention the latest version of the song. It was a hit in the UK earlier this year by Marco Demark--82.0.207.86 (talk) 23:40, 30 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Why is there the personal on the Ben Folds cover?

But not the original Elton John Version? The whole Ben Folds part is too long, all it needs is a quick mention not half of the page —Preceding unsigned comment added by 137.141.136.178 (talk) 02:03, 7 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
