The result was delete. Under WP:MUSIC, a separate article for a song needs extra-good justification. Though this article is being deleted, I've no objection to the use of this name for a DAB if consensus supports that, and there are targets that are real articles EdJohnston (talk) 17:04, 11 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Song hasn't charted yet, no sources besides primary ones. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • ^{(Broken clamshells • Otter chirps • HELP)} 05:23, 6 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete At present, doesn't pass WP:MUSIC or WP:V. Mister Senseless™ (Speak - Contributions) 06:07, 6 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Note — if this article be kept, strongly recommend disambiguation, as the name of the article is also an individual song and album by Adam Sandler. MuZemike (talk) 08:18, 6 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Street Survivors, a 1977 album by Lynyrd Skynyrd, which featured a song of this same name that hit #13 on the Billboard Hot 100. That would be a better redirect target for this song. This particular song (the Usher one) fails WP:MUSIC. Doc Strange^MailboxLogbook 14:40, 6 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. There's also a 1962 single of the same title by Don and Juan, which hit #7. I think this should be turned into a dab page. Deor (talk) 14:58, 6 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

That would certainly be the better option. I'll change my vote from Redirect to Dabify. 16:35, 6 November 2008 (UTC)

Comment I support the conversion to a dab, but only if pages on the more notable songs are made. I don't really see a purpose in a dab to nowhere. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • ^{(Broken clamshells • Otter chirps • HELP)} 16:58, 6 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The dab could go to the pages for the albums (for the songs, as there is actually an album by Adam Sandler by this name as well) if there is no article for the songs. Doc Strange^MailboxLogbook 19:13, 6 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
