• song performed by American singer-songwriter and actress Miley Cyrus and actor John Travolta. — This would probably read better song performed by both pop singer Miley Cyrus and actor John Travolta

Since the song is from a soundtrack, stating she is an actress is important, I think. How can that be incorporated. What about "performed by actors and recording artists Miley Cyrus and John Travolta"? -- ipodnano05 * ^{leave@message} 18:16, 26 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I think the two ands struck me as odd, but I'm pretty sure it's actually fine the way it is. CrowzRSA 15:10, 27 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

O.K. Great :) -- ipodnano05 * ^{leave@message} 20:35, 28 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• Add link to produced (record producer)

Done.

• Filmmakers asked Cyrus to write a song for herself and John Travolta, who stars as Bolt. reads poorly, consider rewording.

I don't know how. It sounds fine to me. -- ipodnano05 * ^{leave@message} 18:23, 26 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• who also produced the produced the track, in a short period of time as they had a due date. also reads poorly, consider rewording.

Done.

• Cyrus described the writing process as easy. — perhaps something like Cyrus said that writing the piece was "easy."

Done.

• Before "I Thought I Lost You"'s completion — replace "I Thought I Lost You"'s with song's

Done.

• Add link to plot (Plot (narrative))

Done.

• He said, "[The song] so sums up the theme of this film. You know, a dog and its owner and they both were separated, but they love each other so much — there's such an emotional payoff when these characters get reunited, and I think that's what this song's about", he said. — you repeated he said

Done.

• Lasseter thought that solely "I Thought I Lost You" worked, but it worked better for the film. — replace "I Thought I Lost You" with the song

Done.

• as promotion for Bolt and its accompanying soundtrack. — to promote Bolt

Done.

• Since it also includes its origins, the title should be Composition and origins

It doesn't include origins. What do you mean by origins? -- ipodnano05 * ^{leave@message} 18:24, 26 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Concept CrowzRSA 22:39, 26 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

As an lyrical content? That is included in the "Composition". -- ipodnano05 * ^{leave@message} 02:24, 27 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Is "getting lost and getting found, with an overarching theme of loyalty." lyrical content? CrowzRSA 15:06, 27 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Yes. In the sense that's someones interpretation about the lyrics. It's not a quote from the lyrics. -- ipodnano05 * ^{leave@message} 20:34, 28 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• Since its not only "Critical" reception, it should be Reception

There is no commercial reception, only critical reception. -- ipodnano05 * ^{leave@message} 18:28, 26 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• sounded like an odd love duet because of Cyrus' and Travolta's age difference until he realized the similarity between Travolta and Bolt's voice, as he voiced him. this is better off be a direct quote from the reviewer.

Done.

• An uncredited review from The Los Angeles Times — Change review to reviewer

Done.

• This section has a lot of Original research.

Not really, it's just that music video synopsis do not need sources, like movie or book plots. -- ipodnano05 * ^{leave@message} 18:25, 26 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah that makes sense... CrowzRSA 22:40, 26 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• no dabs Y
• no bad links Y
• Amazon isn't a reliable source... nor are similar sites like TowerRecords.com

Done.
