– "Changhen ge" is both the title of the 8th-century poem by Bai Juyi and the 1995 novel The Song of Everlasting Sorrow (novel) by Wang Anyi. Per Google Book search, "Changhen ge" + "Wang Anyi" = 255 results, "Changhen ge" + "Bai Juyi" = 207 results. This shows that the poem can no longer be considered the primary topic for "Changhen ge". Also Google Book search of "Song of Everlasting Sorrow" + "Wang Anyi" = 2640 results, "Song of Everlasting Sorrow" + "Bai Juyi" = 267 results. This shows that the novel should be considered the primary topic for "The Song of Everlasting Sorrow". Timmyshin (talk) 16:37, 12 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Wrong date[edit]

Michael Berry is wrong. The poem is from 唐憲宗元和元年, which is A.D. 806 or early 807. 98.115.255.240 (talk) 03:17, 15 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
