Falling Behind (song) → Falling Behind – The (song) identifier isn't necessary. Falling Behind currently links to Everything I Know About Love, the album the song is from. मल्ल (talk) 23:08, 24 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Support as this is the only article with this name. I agree with the nominator's rationale. Aoba47 (talk) 19:14, 1 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

"The single was released on 11 August 2022 through AWAL as the album's fourth preceding single.

I don't think separating between musicians and technical is necessary, one of them is also a songwriter. I would advise you to remove it

Fine

References

All source are reliable. I have some doubts regarding The Honey Pop, despite having an editorial team and a magazine, they accept anyone to write articles
Avoid overlink (The Line of the Best Fit and AllMusic)

Done

Overall

Any radio release date? The line of the best fit barely covers it is a single
If so, should mention it was the fifth single of the album
You can now address the issues on the article. Please let me know once you have done. MarioSoulTruthFan (talk) 22:14, 3 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@MarioSoulTruthFan I believe I've addressed all of the comments, don't think there's any sources covering its release date though. Arconning (talk) 04:52, 4 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
AllMusic source also states the song has bossa-nova vibes. Add that to the composition portion. Honey Pop wasn't the only source supporting that. Moreover, I did some changes to the article. Take a look and see if you are ok with those. MarioSoulTruthFan (talk) 11:02, 4 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@MarioSoulTruthFan Fine by me! :) Arconning (talk) 12:51, 5 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
