[edit] Crazy People Rock

DeleteWhile some singles are certainly worthy of an entry in Wikipedia, this one is not. Withholding my personal reasons as to why i think this should be deleted due to it's very low "musical" quality, it is perfomed by a forgotten winner of a talent contest and didn't chart (well I thought it didn't, the author of the article seems to think it made it to 39 in the Australian top 40, & he would know seeing as he has done the research) I think it should be deleted because no-one in Australia has any interest in the single or artist, let alone the rest of the world(Khan 05:13, 4 February 2006 (UTC))

• Keep. Multiple google hits. Suggest it be merged into Scott Cain --Fuhghettaboutit 05:47, 4 February 2006 (UTC)
• Merge into Controlled Folly. Dr Debug (Talk) 06:00, 4 February 2006 (UTC)
• Merge per one of the above suggestions. I'd like to delete it as fan-gush but alas he seems to be notable. --kingboyk 06:07, 4 February 2006 (UTC)
• Keep because Cain is well notable and because of the multiple Google hits as pointed out. M.C. Brown Shoes 00:05, 5 February 2006 (UTC)
• Keep Because I found it interesting, being a fan of both Scott Cain, and the single's songwriter Gregg Alexander, just because it isn't for your tastes doesn't mean you should play censor and delete it. "No one in Australia has any interest", Gee mate, I'm sure you know everyone in Australia, guess I just proved you wrong. MC Survey
• Delete Really bad artist, & nobody could care less (other than above two, which are probably the same person).
• Delete Too many singles already and I am Australian & I have never heard of this song but if you read the lyrics on the net, it seems as if a four year old wrote them, "people did you come here to get nuts tonight? I said people were gonna unite yellow, black, and white" This guy cant be serious? Did he write this song?(Factory1 00:46, 5 February 2006 (UTC))

• MergeThere are more hits for my local restaurants & real estate agents on google than "crazy people rock", should we make an article on them? Sorry MC Survery aka MC Brown Shoes, either you are Scott Cain or probably his only fan, I agree this 'song' is possibly the worst song I have ever heard but that is certainly not why I put it up for deletion, if that was the case I would be putting everything from NSYNC, Backstreet boys, Britney Spears etc up for deletion, the song itself is simply not notable enough to have its own entry in wikipedia. Your article was very well written, but I dont even think there should be an article on all the Beatles singles(which there isnt) let alone this Scott Cain person. Seriously though cant we just have less articles like this on wikipedia, where will it end? Just merge them under one article under his name. And I am not familiar with the term "gee mate"? What does this mean? As it stands im changing my vote from delete to merge.(Khan 02:13, 5 February 2006 (UTC))

• Keep --Terence Ong (恭喜发财) 03:04, 5 February 2006 (UTC)
• Note that many of the votes are biased by musical preference and Khan in particular is an obvious pop snob. But by the way, you're right, the song only made #42 on the charts.M.C. Brown Shoes 10:15, 5 February 2006 (UTC)

I am not MC Brown Shoes mate, I'm a totally different person, you idiot, yeah mate make total assumptions about people because they have similar usernames.MC Survey

I was talking about 'MC Brown shoes', not 'MC Brown shoes mate'(whoever that is) I thought you were the same person because you replied at the same time, not because your names sounded similar. Youre the real idiot & a hypocrite, by making "assumptions about people" Embarrassed? Anyway I believe you so stop crying(Khan 12:33, 5 February 2006 (UTC))

• Keep or merge, borderline charting single. Kappa 04:13, 7 February 2006 (UTC)
