Betcha Gon' Know (The Prologue)

Created/expanded by Calvin999 (talk). Self nom at 13:22, 16 August 2012 (UTC)

Symbol confirmed.svg Length, history and reference verified. Tightened and clarified hook a bit, as well as adding more interesting detail that it dropped off the chart two weeks later. Daniel Case (talk) 17:35, 6 September 2012 (UTC)
  • Symbol possible vote.svg Hook size increased from 200 characters to 224 characters in the course of clarification; making it unacceptably long for DYK. Suggest aiming for something short but sweet, but definitely below 190. Two weeks only on the Digital Songs chart is nothing to write home about, and the source doesn't tell you that it was consecutive weeks, so "dropped off two weeks later" that was added to the hook is not supported (the article, which merely says "two weeks total", is as far as you can go with the data). It might be more interesting that it hit the DS chart the week the album debuted at #3 on the Billboard 200 despite not being released as a single from the album, but that fact isn't stated explicitly in the article.
As a general rule, any significant edits to a hook should be presented as an ALT, and any new ALT by a reviewer should be left to another person to review due to conflict of interest reasons. BlueMoonset (talk) 20:57, 6 September 2012 (UTC)
ALT1: ... that upon the release of Mariah Carey's 12th studio album Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel, her song "Betcha Gon' Know (The Prologue)" peaked at number 66 on the U.S. Hot Digital Songs chart?
I removed the last bit. And it was a song, not a single (was never released as one). Writing that the album debuted at #3 doesn't really add anything either, as we aren't placing total emphasis on the album. AARONTALK 22:09, 6 September 2012 (UTC)
