Muppet Show

Just for fun, you might add the following info:

On The Muppet Show, the song "Windmills of Your Mind" is performed by a Screaming Thing in episode 201. The creature explains that while he looks very calm on the outside, on the inside everything is circling around as described by the song. By the end of the number, he's completely exhausted and freaked out. He ends up running off the stage and through Statler and Waldorf's box, and falls down into the audience. (youtube video available, this info was found on: http://muppet.wikia.com/wiki/The_Windmills_of_Your_Mind)

Terry Hall

The article states that it was on his 1994 album the collection. This album was actually released in 1992, and the track doesn't feature on it. The only instance I can find where Terry Hall sings this song is as a member of Colourfield on Virgins And Philistines and later on the 2001 Complete Terry Hall.

Swingout Sister

The intro states that SoS have covered it, but the list of recording does not include them. Or have they only performed it live ? RGCorris (talk) 08:29, 26 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

When/how was this written or commissioned

This doesn't answer the main question I had about the song, namely was it commissioned and written for the film, or was it written and recorded independently and then chosen for the film? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 206.248.158.78 (talk) 01:19, 28 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Mozart

What has this song to do with the Mozart's concertante, 2nd movement? Some notes in the very incipit, maybe 3 notes. And Mozart is a 3/4. Where did you find this info? --Simoneschiaffino (talk) 23:22, 21 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I had the same question, and I'm listening to the Mozart piece in question for the third time. Is this just an unsourced plagiarism claim? It would only seem legitimate if Legrand has personally attributed it to Mozart, or there's a scholarly consensus. (Joe Suggs (talk) 03:25, 14 October 2013 (UTC))[reply]

There's no source provided for this tenuous Mozart claim. Removed it. Barpoint (talk) 21:34, 17 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

More like Schumann's Kreisleriana, Op. 16 - 8, Schnell und spielend, to my untrained ear, fwiw, but that would be another unsourced claim. Batternut (talk) 08:54, 19 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Difference between translating and writing of the lyric

This article credits two completely different sets of writers as to the lyric of the song. I believe this to have been translated into French by the French lyricist. Translating can be tricky but it is not the same thing as writing an original lyric. It is highly improbable that one would have two distinct sets of writers in two different locations a half a world apart in the same year (1968). — Preceding unsigned comment added by Beadbud5000 (talk • contribs) 12:12, 18 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
