Can we get a better picture[edit]

Can we get a better picture for this article, it's awfully dark. Milonica 04:49, 15 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

(1) It's "ukelele". (2) Blue Jays was not as much a team project as it seems. For instance, is Lodge anywhere on "Who Are You Now"? And while it had much of the 'feel" of a Moodies record, it used an orchestra where Pinder and Thomas used to be, and thus had a notable difference in overall sound. The lyrics were more like what would later be heard on their solo albums than those on the classic Moodies albums. (3) Yes -- "Blue Guitar" is Justin with 10cc. The guys who gave us one of the most overplayed records in radio history, "The Things We Do For Love", not to mention some bubblegum music. The record's superb and even Moodies-ish, but 10cc as a band is about as far from the so-called "Moodies mystique" as one can get. (Rlongman (talk) 05:32, 10 January 2009 (UTC))[reply]

Name?[edit]

Is his full name Justin David Hayward or David Justin Hayward? Sources differ. John W. Kennedy (talk) 22:19, 9 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

He says himself here: "I was baptised Justin David Hayward and remained so ever since." However, his record at FreeBMD here suggests that his name was registered as David Justin Hayward. FreeBMD is not regarded as WP:RS. But it is corroborated by his Companies House entry here.Martinevans123 (talk) 20:25, 23 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Unreferenced content - December 2013[edit]

There have been some unusual edits to Justin Hayward over the last few months and I don't know where to start with regards to cleaning any of it up. There has been blanking of referenced material and addition of lots of badly written non-referenced text. Del_♉sion23 (talk) 13:04, 31 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I have removed a block of unreferenced blogese from the lede, added by a user account seemingly set up to add to this article. Acabashi (talk) 14:44, 31 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Forever Autumn[edit]

Not sure why this song is listed as a Hayward "composition" when it was written by Vigrass and Osborne. Pete3194 (talk) 13:01, 25 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
