WeCanSolveIt commercial song

[edit]

Can anyone name that tune in this commercial? Discussion in the comments suggest Antonio Vivaldi, but I'm not enough of a Baroque expert to confirm that. Paragon12321 03:56, 29 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Rick Astley sheet music

[edit]

Where can I find free sheet music to Never Gonna Give You Up? --124.254.77.148 (talk) 12:27, 29 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I doubt you can; the song is copy written. This is probably as close as you will get. Paragon12321 16:50, 29 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Apologies for waxing pedantic, but allow me to point out that there's a tiny difference between copyrighting and copywriting. -- Captain Disdain (talk) 23:07, 29 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
You trying rickroll someone with sheet music? -- Mad031683 (talk) 23:17, 29 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Trust me Captain; if I have the opportunity to be pedantic, I'll take it. Is it copywrote? That just doesn't sound right. Screw this, I'm going to Esperanto. Gi estas aŭtorait rajtait. (That was a complete guess and was probably way off.) Paragon12321 03:54, 30 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Uh, no, I mean, the song isn't copywritten, it's copyrighted. They mean two entirely different things. =) -- Captain Disdain (talk) 12:46, 30 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Street Fighter Alpha

[edit]

Is the Street Fighter Alpha series considered to be canon? David Pro (talk) 23:03, 29 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know if Capcom has officially try to adhere to one strict canon; like with most fighting games that span multiple titles, you're probably going to find plot holes somewhere. That said, I believe that was the idea. SFA is suppose to be a prequel to Street Fighter II. In SF II's backstory, Charlie is mentioned as being killed by M. Bison. In SFA, he appears as a playable character. ——Mitaphane Contribs | Talk 23:28, 29 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
From back when I was an avid gamer, I recall the Street Fighter Plot Canon Guide. Someoneinmyheadbutit'snotme (talk) 22:55, 30 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
