Should it be noted that Dance Floor Darling was a radio single - or something along those lines?

It was added to the BBC Radio 2 playlist from April 24th and remained there for 4 weeks

Added April 24: https://www.instagram.com/p/COBB5BsIYsI/

Still there as of May 15th: https://www.instagram.com/p/CO3GjR5oKmQ/

Dropped as of May 22: https://twitter.com/BBCRadio2/status/1396929302453698568

Kylie herself acknowledged that the song was added to BBC Radio 2's playlist here - https://twitter.com/kylieminogue/status/1387029792344756225

The Official Charts Company then referred to the song as a single later on - https://twitter.com/officialcharts/status/1394601164491083776

Thoughts?

• Soft vote to add. It was a promotional single that didn't receive much attention or, well, promotion. She continued to push Real Groove even after Dance Floor Darling was sent to radio. It's odd that it hasn't been added to her singles discography page or received a mention here. I think it should be added to both articles, but I'm curious to hear what others think. I Love It had an actual release that seemed more legit as a promotional single. One aspect that supports DFD's inclusion is that the song was very slightly reworked for radio, though I don't see a credible source that can be used to mention the fact. Shoestringnomad (talk) 05:14, 29 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I think it's similar to the likes of Raining Glitter from Golden - Just kind of thrown out there. Except it got sent to radio (Unlike Raining Glitter and I Love It). It's a very, very strange one for her because it was sent to a core radio station that supports her, but really didn't get anything else otherwise. I'm not sure how exactly to define it myself. I would consider it a single that got radio play only vs a promotional single like I Love It. Even though I Love It was released as its own EP, it did not get a radio release. So it depends on how we define a single exactly? As for the radio edit, it's true that there's no credible source that can be used to mention the fact, at least not to my knowledge. The only one I can think of is BBC Radio 2 playback, but those all expire after a certain amount of time. 99.232.96.146 (talk) 07:29, 29 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Oh and I just thought, DFD could be compared to the likes of Sincerely Yours from Golden, seeing as that also had a radio-only release. 99.232.96.146 (talk) 07:58, 29 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure this is the official 4th single from Disco, despite its radio release in the UK earlier this year. Since then no music videos or further promotion were announced (besides those cutesy TikTok videos and live performances recently) – perhaps Kylie has moved on with this and prepared for the re-release of Disco instead. For now, I think we should change DFD to promo single before any official statement from BMG (see a discussion for promo/UK radio singles here). Damian Vo (talk) 17:53, 30 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I'm content with referring to it as a promo single honestly. It was a very soft release overall anyway. Also considering it didn't get a physical release (Like promo single I Love It) when all other singles so far did (Including the new single A Second to Midnight), I suppose that could be the deciding factor here. 99.232.96.146 (talk) 20:02, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Content above was transcluded from Talk:Dance Floor Darling, for ease of reading.shaidar cuebiyar (talk) 00:27, 1 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Kylie confirmed herself in a promo video for Spotify that Kiss of Life is a single. Problem is, it was posted on Instagram stories and as far as I can see, it's not available anywhere else outside of fan account re-posts. The video is coming tomorrow, and the pair are confirmed to be performing the song on TV soon. So I assume a radio release is probably coming some time soon as well. 99.232.96.146 (talk) 18:45, 3 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I agree, as it is a single release it should be referred to as such on the Wikipedia page. Just because a physical release has not (yet) been planned does not negate it being a single; the track has been sent to radio stations, released as a single on streaming/digital download platforms, has a music video premiering and several promotional performance slots booked. Additionally, various reputable music publications including Rolling Stone and Clash are referring to the track as a single release. [1] [2] Patyo1994 (talk) 21:04, 3 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Being a single and being called a single are two different things. If the song has received airplay, it needs to be demonstrated. (CC) Tbhotch^™ 21:44, 3 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I'm a little confused about how exactly defining singles works around here. Dance Floor Darling really highlights this. It had a radio release and was ultimately promoted to a degree by Kylie, yet because she nor the label ever said it was a single, it's deemed a promo single. Overall, I agree with that designation at this point considering how it rolled out. However, with Kiss of Life we have it from Kylie herself that it's a single, in addition to the video, etc. Yet we can't definite it as a single now because it hasn't had demonstrated airplay? Respectfully, this is all very contradictory and confusing. 99.232.96.146 (talk) 17:12, 4 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Per community consensus at WP:SONGS (here) the mere addition to BBC Radio stations doesn't establish a song as a single. Wikipedia:Singles criteria includes a list of what constitutes a single release. (CC) Tbhotch^™ 17:26, 4 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The song's press release, which can be viewed here [3], explicitly refers to the track as a single. I would therefore suggest this fits Wikipedia:Singles criteria 1) "The song was referred to as a single by the record label releasing it." Patyo1994 (talk) 22:45, 4 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, that makes the release credible. (CC) Tbhotch^™ 22:56, 4 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for the info, and glad Kiss of Life is cleared up. However, upon reviewing the criteria, I'm brought back to Dance Floor Darling when reading this part: "The song was referred to as a single by an authoritative, music-oriented media outlet (e.g., Billboard, Official Charts Company)." The Official Charts Company referred to the song as a single (as seen in the above discussion about Dance Floor Darling). 99.232.96.146 (talk) 22:31, 9 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The article reads "The Official Charts Company later mentioned the song as a single, but no official confirmation from Minogue was ever given.[47]" I don't know why this warn-like language is here, but it is here. The simple fact that the song never grew beyond this content indicates that it was truly not a single or it was a poorly-performed radio-only single. (CC) Tbhotch^™ 22:45, 9 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Ok then. Well clearly the rules regarding this stuff are way more complex than they need to be, and "the powers that be" who ultimately make the decisions enjoy having contradicting rules, or simply like to ignore them based on arbitrary opinions. Dance Floor Darling can clearly be classed as a single under one of the rules, regardless of performance and roll-out. It is what it is though, it was hardly an event anyway. 99.232.96.146 (talk) 23:03, 9 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:Singles criteria is not a rule (not even a guideline). It's just a quick facts page. At the moment I see no WP:consensus (which would be the "power" you describe) to include DFD as a single. (CC) Tbhotch^™ 02:45, 10 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I will state including the singles from the Guest List edition is a violation of {{Infobox album}}'s own format for including {{Singles}}, where it states: Do not include singles that were added as bonus tracks on a re-release of an album. By this definition, both "A Second to Midnight" and "Kiss of Life" (Kylie Minogue and Jessie Ware song) were added bonuses on the re-issue of the album. Not to mention, the inclusion of the Guest List album cover is in violation of WP:NFCC#3a and 8. livelikemusic (TALK!) 05:27, 24 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, the template states, "Do not include singles that were added as bonus tracks on a re-release of an album." However, these are not bonus tracks. Bonus tracks tend to be material cut from the initial release that is subsequently released due to an album's success. Guest List includes three duets recorded solely for this version, and they were recorded separately from and after the recording sessions for Disco. Two of them were then released as singles, not as buzz tracks, but as proper singles with music videos. Furthermore, the inclusion of the Guest List album cover should not be misconstrued to be in violation of WP:NFCC#3a because the first album's cover was used solely for the 2020 release, while the latter included new tracks that received considerable promotion. The Guest List edition itself as a standalone reissue received considerable promotion, including live and televised performances and interviews. As for 8, the second album cover provides context to understand that the Guest List edition is a departure from the original release. This isn't a remix album (which exists but is not highlighted here, of course). Shoestringnomad (talk) 09:13, 24 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

A discussion is taking place to address the redirect Kiss of Life (Kylie Minogue and Years and Years song). The discussion will occur at Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2021 November 12#Kiss of Life (Kylie Minogue and Years and Years song) until a consensus is reached, and readers of this page are welcome to contribute to the discussion.

This is going to become a point of discussion, as it often does with Kylie releases. Under my own "personal" definition of a single, it meets the criteria. However, I don't believe it would meet the criteria around here as of yet. Discuss as needed. 173.34.224.178 (talk) 06:22, 2 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

It's been established that "being playlisted" by BBC Radio 2 does not count as a single release. Agreed, in the UK there is something called Impact Day where a song is promoted to a specific date but unless there is a reliable source, the artist or label themselves calling it a single it isn't one. ≫ Lil-Unique1 -{ Talk }- 12:53, 2 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I am very late to this conversation but I agree. I don’t think the song is a single. Just because it was sent to BBC Radio doesn’t mean it’s a single. It was playlisted. PopLizard (talk) 03:08, 23 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The question is if a song has already been release because its parent album is available digitally, does getting a music video mean its released as a single? This is particularly pertinent to the UK, for older legacy and independent acts, and for where there isn't a formal culture or industry of "radio" releases, as radio doesn't count towards our charts. >> Lil-unique1 (talk) — 15:32, 23 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Disco (Kylie Minogue album)'s orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.
