[edit] Sheep Go to Heaven

Cake is a notable band, but this song isn't. Also, this seems to be an interpretation of it.--Shanel 02:43, September 4, 2005 (UTC)

The song is cited in the CAKE article as one of "Their biggest hits" and it's a fan favorite. The song made the billboard charts. The album Prolonging_the_Magic, that contains the song, has its own article. I thought this article would be an interesting contribution to that subject. I attempted to stay away from mere interpretation of the song by citing the more interesting references contained within without drawing conclusions or violating the lyrics copyright.

Any advice on how to make it more relevent?

  • Merge and redirect or else keep and expand, but this info should go somewhere--to me, these seem like encyclopedic things about the song. Thanks, Extradog, for being exceptionally reasonable about this. I've seen many people not take this sort of thing very well--hope you stick around. As for suggestions, this material might go better in the album article--there could be little mini-paragraphs about each track on the album. Unless it was released as a single or something like that? Hope this helps. Meelar (talk) 04:14, September 4, 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep, charting single. Cultural references are encyclopedic. Kappa 07:13, 4 September 2005 (UTC)

    • They are indeed, Kappa, but not in separate articles. / Peter Isotalo 22:36, 4 September 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep. I'm with Kappa. Ppe42 13:51, September 4, 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep, as it made the Billboard charts. I'd like to see the article mention where it was on the charts, and how long, though. There are precedents for music, BTW. Ken talk|contribs 14:11, September 4, 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. We don't need to keep articles on seriously non-notable songs. / Peter Isotalo 22:36, 4 September 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep as charting single with good article. Capitalistroadster 00:37, 5 September 2005 (UTC)
