Singles, albums and compilations edit

What happened to all the single information, like tracklists, remixes and B sides? I know all the singles had links to them. There were some compilations on here too...where did they go? Why is Amazing & Beautiful not on the singles discography? It was released in Germany. Someone has tried to clean up the site but has deleted some important discography information. Also "C'est Cool" did not chart in Denmark at number 9. It was on a Danish website where people had to vote. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 94.192.71.2 (talk) 20:49, 31 March 2012 (UTC)Reply

Clean up! edit

Well, interesting read if you don't wanna learn anything! Can't someone clean it up!

Can you say CLUTTERED? And what happened to the page I made for "Another Day"?

Releases edit

Any possibility that someone wants to take on the task of cleaning up the Release section? --Threatis 21:13, 12 January 2007 (UTC)Reply

Imposter edit

Whigfield is not the singer in my opinion it's Annerley Gordon!

I have many tunes with Annerley Gordon on the vocals produced in Italy and the vocal is the same!!

I'd put money on it!

Just look at Black Box. They had Catherine Quinol as the lead singer - I saw her many times on TV performing Right On Time. However the vocals for most if not all Black Box tunes are sampled from Loleatta Holloway acapella's.

IMHO extremely unlikely, simply because AG is British, and the Scandinavian accent of "Whigfield" isn't exactly hard to miss. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.159.74.100 (talk) 16:30, August 25, 2007 (UTC)

I have to concur with this. The fact that there are no citations about Whigfield being the singer of her own songs screams that this is just a contentious piece of writing that doesn't deserve to be included. There have supposedly been several attempts by the producers of Whigfield over the years to cover up her being dubbed by another singer, including on the internet (most likely timed to coincide with the release of the greatest hits album)! So she "appeared" on the radio and sang her own songs - how do we know that wasn't Annerley who made the appearance?
Speaking personally, I've listened to plenty of Annerley Gordon tracks circa the year Saturday Night was recorded. The vocals on that hit are undoubtedly Annerley, when compared to other tracks she's recorded. The fact that Annerley was so heavily involved with Italo producers at that time makes it hard to ignore, when faced with the very weak alternative that the producers just happened to pick a girl who sounded exactly like her.

I would believe you if it wasn't for the fact that the singer who sings Saturday Night has a HUGE Scandinavian accent while Annerley Gordon is British. I doubt she would sing with an accent on purpose. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.10.46.8 (talk) 14:39, 31 March 2011 (UTC)Reply

There is litteraly no proof for this save for the fact that Annalise soudns similar, how do we know that that wasn't Sanny. get the point? Also I made this argument on the Ann Lee talkpage, so i'm reiterating it here: Annerley Gordon is youtuber vipersword100's real name. How do I know this? listen to the voices. There you go, that's my proof. Oh you're crying bullshit? so why do you get to say that Whigfield is Annerley gordon and that there's proof while only saying that someone has video evidence of Annerley doing saturday night and also saying that the voices soudn allike which I'll give you that there are similarities. Howcome you guies get to say that Annerley is whigfield and yet I use the same reasoning you use and make the claim that I have proof of it when I say that vipersword100 the youtuber is Annerley Gordon for sure, and you guies call bullshit on it? Same logic, same amount of proof, both are obviously equally false. But why do you get to do it, and yet this Mancunian pilot can't? it's what I like to call hypocritical logic to the 3rd degree. So there you go. A little wisdom frmo this 31 year old Mancunian pilot who now lives in the middle of Canada. I'll let you digest it and come up with a reasonable response either here or to my comments on the Ann Lee talkpage.

we do not care one whit who sounds like who. we follow the sources -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 01:04, 26 November 2015 (UTC)Reply

"You fool!"(super villain saying) don't you see? That's exactly my point. There is no proof that whigfield is Annerley Gordon. I'm pointing out the stupid lojic that these people use and why it isn't valid. . — Preceding unsigned comment added by 199.195.166.103 (talk) 13:12, 26 November 2015 (UTC)Reply

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E65g_0sh5-E Here's a link for a video of Annerley Gordon singing "Saturday Night" last year on a live performance in Spain. If this isn't proof that Annerley Gordon is the real singer of most of Whigfield's work, then I don't know what it is. As for the people claiming that the singer has a huge Scandanivian accent, guys, with all due respect but you must really check your ears because I clearly listen to a perfect British accent not only in "Saturday Night" but in pretty much all the songs in the project's first album and that's because I haven't heard the other albums but it's going to be same thing. Sannie only actually started to sing for the project in 2012 on the album "W" and even that one featured some vocals by Annerley. Since then, we can say the project pretty much ended because she decided to have her own career as "Sannie", so, whatever, if you still prefer to believe that Sannie is the real vocalist behind pretty much all Whigfield songs, fine by me, just keep in mind that you're being quite deluded by doing so.

Name edit

Any idea why "Whigfield" ? -- Beardo (talk) 12:59, 30 March 2009 (UTC)Reply

I recall it being said on a radio program years ago that she chose the name after the name of one of her music teachers at school. Clearly I have no reference to support this though! SimonUK (talk) 10:38, 6 September 2009 (UTC)Reply

fan edit

Clean Up edit

Hi everyone,

Just so you know I will be looking at the Whigfield on Wiki over the next few months. I understand it is in a bit of a state at the moment (not all my fault!). I have updated some of the Discography but would like to turn it into a discograpy page to make it more easy to follow.

Watch this space and PLEASE don't delete the page!

Many thanks,

Stephen

"Charlotte not Sannie"... edit

We have been getting edits like this from editors claiming to be represent the subject of the article, and saying that she goes by "Charlotte not Sannie". I went and looked for any reliable source saying that, and found none. They all use Sannie. So we cannot make that change. Jytdog (talk)

In any instance, it should be "Carlson" and not "Sannie" or "Charlotte". -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 18:14, 14 July 2015 (UTC)Reply

Naan edit

Where is the source that naan is Sanny Carlson. I believe Naan's real name is somebody different, not to mention Naan's voice is only slightly similar to Carlson's voice. I know Sanny wrote a few songs for the Benassi Brothers but I can't find proof she's Naan, only that Naan sounds somewhat similar to Whigfield only different. Unless Sanny is also the voice of Yulia Savicheva, who's real name is Chasity Michaelsen. just wanted to bring it up. 23.151.192.180 (talk) 23:45, 2 December 2018 (UTC)Reply

Interfering with added info edit

I'm trying to add info regarding the fact that the real singer on Whigfields first 4 albums was Ann Lee aka Annerley Emma Gordon but this Harout72 is now all over and reverting my adds AND changing the original text on Ann Lee's page which is my source of info. Can he really do that?? Looks like he's on some crusade here...?? What's his agenda. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Nooway (talkcontribs) 23:20, 18 January 2019 (UTC)Reply

@Nooway: Harout72's agenda is likely the same as most editors on Wikipedia: trying to ensure that information added to Wikipedia is cited to a reliable source. Linking to the unrelated Ann Lee page is not helpful. Linking to the Ann Lee (singer) page would be helpful if you also had a reliable source to back up your claim. I'm afraid Discogs is discounted as a reliable source. You need something better. Please see WP:WikiProject Albums/Sources for some ideas of what can be used. Once you do have a reliable source, you can cite it here and fix up the singer's page and the encyclopedia will be the better for it. — jmcgnh(talk) (contribs) 05:59, 19 January 2019 (UTC)Reply
