Looking at the text authority for Give to our God immortal praise, I see no tune specified in the header, yet it is outfitted with a PDF score, a MusicXML, a MIDI, and a recording. When I scroll down to the Tunes Pie Chart, WARRINGTON occupies the upper right quadrant, so I assume it is the most-used tune, with DUKE STREET hot on its heels. So I figure the four musical links below the header data will be WARRINGTON. But if I click on "All tunes used with" I find that DUKE STREET is actually one vote ahead of WARRINGTON. So I am not too surprised when the PDF and MIDI, and presumably the MusicXML but I couldn't open it, are DUKE STREET, but why is the Recording of LASST UNS ERFREUEN? SCREENSHOT OF PERTINENT SPOTS

What tune is this? - Media links
The media links at the top of the summary page are selected from the available media files for the text or tune. I am not sure how the system decides which file to link. In the case of "Give to our God immortal praise" there is not a clear consensus on which is the most popular tune between WARRINGTON and DUKE STREET, therefore there is not a tune name at the top. The recordings come from Small Church Music and there is a choice of two tunes for this text - RIMINGTON and LASST UNS ERFREUEN. Small Church Music is based in Australia so the tunes that people are used to singing with a text may be different from what North Americans are used to.
