Starchild Song[edit]

"Many people think that Dune has made the song Starchild, but it was actually made by a Swedish group with the same name as the song: Starchild."

I don't believe that to be true... If it is, then Dune has made a cover version of the song. Can anyone verify this statement, or else I will remove it. ---- DJ John 16:02, 14 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Well according to the site Discogs there is an artist named Starchild that made a song called Starchild, Info. Also, Dune did a song called Starchild. So my guess is Dune did a cover. -- Al™ 13:42, 18 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

See this page for discussion on this matter: http://forums.di.fm/archive/index.php/t-89.html It says:

I know for a fact that Oliver and the others in Dune didn't do Starchild, because I did it. It got released as a single as well as on the FLUID (Stockholm Records) double CD "Nordic Rave". This was actually earlier than the Dune-songs with a similar sound, and Oliver is very aware of that. However, a moron named Alesch in Germany had this Dune-fansite on the Net and got the song and thought it was a Dune-track. So he spread it for one week on his homepage with the wrong label on it, hence the common wrongly labelled mp3 files. Starchild was actually one of the most widely spread mp2 and mp3 songs at the time back then, so no wonder eh.

I don't think they made a cover either, all starship songs labeled as "dune" sounds exactly the same as the original. 213.67.209.203 19:59, 17 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Peacock Terms[edit]

The number of times the word "brilliant" appears in this article is just a little over the top... --babbage (talk) 19:03, 8 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Incorrect Date of Single[edit]

Their latest single Rainbow To The Stars 2003 was released on 23 June 2003. -I can not have heard a song in the 90-ties that was produced in the 00-ies. Its incorrect. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.216.162.143 (talk) 14:00, 1 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The song you heard in the '90s was probably 1996's "Rainbow to the Stars" (without "2003" in the title). Orcoteuthis (talk) 21:30, 4 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

UK Chart position for 'Who Wants To Live Forever'[edit]

Hi everyone!

I had corrected the UK chart position for 'Who Wants To Live Forever' since it was listed as No. 86, when it actually reached No. 77 (Source: https://www.officialcharts.com/artist/34938/dune/). This was then changed back to the incorrect listing, since it is likely based on this source: http://www.zobbel.de/cluk/CLUK_D.HTM

This source does claim to be based on UK sales data, however I feel that the Official UK Charts site would be the authority on the chart placing for this release? I know there have been instances where 'lost sales' were later added to releases and their official placing was updated as a result, which could be the case here.

I'd be happy to update both the link for the source data on the UK chart placings as well as the actual chart position for Who Wants To Live Forever, but want to get others' views on this.

The data for the UK chart position of 'Hand In Hand' is correct.

Edit: I went ahead and updated both chart position and source
