Fair use rationale for Image:Bowie TVC15.jpg[edit]

Image:Bowie TVC15.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 18:15, 1 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Not nonsense[edit]

The intro had an unsourced claim that the lyrics and oblique nonsense. They are very direct and simple. In the first verse, he states that he has a very fancy holographic television called TVC 15. His girlfriend climbed into the hologram and was lost. In the second verse, he says he watches the television every night looking for her. In the third verse, he says that he wants to climb into the television to find her. I do not see any oblique references or weird nonsense lyrics. -- kainaw 12:25, 22 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

All most people hear is "My TV, she work fine. TV, she work fine."

The Song or the Single[edit]

This article seems to be confused about whether it is about the song "TVC15" or the single release of this song.

If it is intended to be about the song, much of the information about "We Are the Dead", the other side of that single, should be omitted (mentioning it as the other side of the single on which this song was released would be appropriate, but things like instrument credits would not be).

If it is intended to be about the single, the first paragraph should be rewritten as it is currently written as if it is about the song.

This article probably exists more because it was a single than because it was a song on an album, IOW its notability is mainly established by the fact that it was a single. Now not all pop songs are singles but pretty well all pop singles are songs, so it makes sense to say something about the track as a song, as well as a single, so I don't see the confusion.
