Music video

Robin Lane
editI was flipping through the Police biography L'Historia Bandido and stumbled upon this: "He went to live with a girlfriend called Robin Lane, Neil Young's 'Cinnamon Girl', who emerged in 1980 with her own band, Robin Lane and the Chartbusters." Is this implying that "Cinnamon Girl" was written about Robin Lane?--Martin IIIa (talk) 03:32, 25 July 2011 (UTC)
Requested move
edit- The following discussion is an archived discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the move request was: Move. Clear primary topic. Cúchullain t/c 18:22, 30 November 2012 (UTC)
– This song gets 4,820 views to 660 views for the Prince song. That's more than 7 times the views, and the Neil Young song is more notable. This is clearly the primary topic. Hoops gza (talk) 00:10, 5 November 2012 (UTC)
- Oppose - sorry but again, whom does removing "(Neil Young song)" and leaving Cinnamon Girl (Prince song) benefit? In ictu oculi (talk) 00:48, 5 November 2012 (UTC)
- Comment - the point is that Cinnamon Girl should at least be a redirect to the Neil Young song.Hoops gza (talk) 04:00, 5 November 2012 (UTC)
:*Why? What is the benefit, as In Ictu oculi asks? What happens when my self-penned song, Cinnamon Girl comes out next week and hits #1 in every chart known to man/woman/dog? (it really is that good! LOL). Are you going to move Neil Young back to make room for me? Let those that want to find the the Neil Young song find it easily, and for my fans Cinnamon Girl (Richhoncho song) will be perfect, they won't want to see any of that old stuff from boring old farts like Prince or Young. Much hilarity but a deep and reasoned argument behind the laughter. Cheers. --Richhoncho (talk) 15:27, 5 November 2012 (UTC)
- Support overwhelming primary topic. If this changes, it is trivial to move again. For now though, the Neil Young song is clearly the primary topic. Apteva (talk) 23:01, 6 November 2012 (UTC)
- Richhoncho, you haven't penned a song with this title, which is the point. Neil Young has, and it is by far the most notable and most accessed song by that title.Hoops gza (talk) 03:43, 12 November 2012 (UTC)
- LOL. My point is that if somebody else DOES write a song with the same name and it is more successful than Young's according to your logic we then have to move Young's version again. It is all rather pointless as anybody looking for the Neil Young version will find it where it is. The ONLY purpose for your requested move is to "big up" Neil Young, i.e. Neil Young's songs are so important that they do not need disambiguation. It serves no benefit to the readers and editors of Wikipedia and only creates unnecessary clutter. As I have often said on this type of requested move before. --Richhoncho (talk) 13:16, 13 November 2012 (UTC)
- This has nothing to do with Neil Young's songs and everything to do with the fact that this song is so important that it does not need disambiguation, like Beatles songs.Hoops gza (talk) 22:48, 13 November 2012 (UTC)
- You don't believe that and neither do I.--Richhoncho (talk) 15:41, 14 November 2012 (UTC)
- It has far less to do with the importance of a subject and is about how many readers are likely to be searching for and viewing the article. We make those articles easier to find because they are more viewed. Someone typing in "Cinnamon Girl" is far more likely to be searching for the Neil Young song than any other current article, and we make it easy for them by locating the article at Cinnamon Girl, instead of making those people click on a link to get there. It is all about the numbers, not about the importance. Apteva (talk) 07:03, 23 November 2012 (UTC)
- Which is pretty much what I am saying - Anybody typing in Cinnamon Girl is probably looking for Neil Young so having his name in the title is a bonus. Removing his name is a hindrance. This RM is not in the best interest of NY fans nor WP. --Richhoncho (talk) 09:18, 23 November 2012 (UTC)
- That is not how we chose song titles. Let it be is not Let it be (Beatles). Under my thumb is not Under my thumb (Rolling Stones). Apteva (talk) 01:54, 27 November 2012 (UTC)

Cocaine has a cinnamon odor
editLyrics mention staying out all night which reminded me of the Eric Clapton sung "Cocaine". Also Cocaine in the 1970's often had a cinnamon odor. Coca leaf extract contains Cinnamic Acid and its esters, and was used to impart a cinnamon flavor to Coca-Cola. A large percentage of the crude alkaloids from Coca leaf are Cinnamic and Truxillic Acid derivatives of Ecognine.
