Talk:Lacy (song)

Should lacy be considered a promo single?

It has physical copies with Stick Season so does that count? Silencequitethisloud (talk) 12:26, 4 August 2024 (UTC)

Kahan's version is a promo single, yes. Rodrigo's version of "Lacy" does not appear on the CD.--NØ 13:06, 4 August 2024 (UTC)

   Pass/Fail:

Hi, @MaranoFan. My schedule is already free, so the delay was more due to laziness than anything else. Now I am beginning the promised serious review of the article. I'd also like to review "The Grudge"; however, if I fail in punctuality and consistency with this review, it is better not to promise anything before I get into trouble. Anyway, what's better than two livies keeping an eye on this article 🇮🇳🇨🇴? Best, Santi (talk) 19:25, 8 August 2024 (UTC)

Highly looking forward to it. This is probably my favorite track on the album. Should be fun! Thanks a lot for the help; seriously, you're doing God's work. I wouldn't want to get a scolding for keeping up too many Liv nominations, haha.--NØ 04:56, 9 August 2024 (UTC)

• Hi Santi, just checking in since it has been seven days. A review is generally expected within this timeframe. Did you go through the article? That shouldn't be time-consuming given the size.--NØ 19:28, 15 August 2024 (UTC)

  @MaranoFan: I already realized, I'm very sorry. Right now I swear I'm already reviewing the first section of the article. In a few minutes, I will be writing comments. Santi (talk) 20:31, 15 August 2024 (UTC)

Bakground and promotion

• Everything's fine in my opinion. In fact, for your information, nobody will give you a scolding for this, Ippantekina has already done the same with TTPD XD. What I read made me want to really write a song these days or during my college period; because I have so many ideas in my head but I never finish any of them hehe. Also, I really miss when NYT and Vogue were free; now spotcheck is a challenge because of that shit. Santi (talk) 21:10, 15 August 2024 (UTC)

• Hopefully! Glad to see the future pop stars are going to come from Wikipedia. Btw, when you find that a source is not freely accessible, Wikipedia:WikiProject Resource Exchange/Resource Request can be a great help. You can try that in the future.--NØ 01:25, 16 August 2024 (UTC)

Composition

• Modify the source 25; it redirects literally to the "Get Him Back!" review. Santi (talk) 21:22, 15 August 2024 (UTC)

• Done.

• In which part the theatrical folk influences are mentioned? In NYC, article which I can't access efficienly due to payment plan adds? Santi (talk) 21:22, 15 August 2024 (UTC)

• Yeah, it's NYT. You can see the archive here. It says Guts "leans heavily into" theatrical folk with "Lacy" in brackets.

• Critics likened the song's lyrical theme to Dolly Parton's 1973 single "Jolene". Maybe my doubts are because I still don't know well the diference between Composition and Critical reception, but I think this fact will be better in next section. Santi (talk) 21:41, 15 August 2024 (UTC)

• Imo these types of lyrical comparisons which help readers better understand the lyrical themes read better in the Composition (and lyrics) section. Critical reception is generally the more subjective stuff, like individual critics thinking whether a song is good or bad.

You're doing a great job, Santi! Excited for this to be promoted soon so we can at least get one out of the queue.--NØ 01:25, 16 August 2024 (UTC)
