RELEASE DATE & LIST YEAR

Release: 2010

Release: 2010Source checked

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 2010 single precedes the 2011 album 21; the album year is not used as the first recording release.

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.
