V3.6 reconciles the original release year with the reviewed Artist Essentials entry for this exact retained recording ID. Year precision is used; an album-first release is not silently replaced by a later single, reissue or annual-list year. The original recording is documented in the 2004 release history of Breakaway. Only year precision is assigned; later singles, charts, remasters and live versions do not establish its first release. The earlier supplied year 2005 is retained in the attribute-change audit.
The large badge identifies this listening list, not a newly issued recording. Later reissues and renewed chart popularity do not replace an original release date. How years are assigned.
