Song with questionable notability. AniMate 22:07, 6 June 2008 (UTC) AniMate 22:07, 6 June 2008 (UTC)

  • Redirect to The Get Up Kids. The band seems notable enough, but the song doesn't appear to have charted, and was self-released. Corvus cornixtalk 22:28, 6 June 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep. The song was the band's first release, and is one of the most re-released and well known songs by the band. It's release played a pivotal role in getting them signed to Doghouse Records, and convinced Ed Rose to produce Woodson, their first release. (Information which, in hindsight, should be put into the article. I will add that now.) Rwiggum (Talk/Contrib) 23:07, 6 June 2008 (UTC)
  • Redirect to The Get Up Kids. Not enough information or sources for its own article. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters(Broken clamshellsOtter chirps) 23:10, 6 June 2008 (UTC)
  • Comment I've updated the page with the history of the record, as well as a reference. I'll add more as I find them, but that was the most substantial information I had at my immediate disposal. Also, should a song have to be charted to be notable? Much of the band's notability stems from this release, so that in itself should make it notable. Rwiggum (Talk/Contrib) 23:33, 6 June 2008 (UTC)
  • Conditional Keep If sources are found to support the article's assertion that this song is responsible for the band being discovered. faithless (speak) 00:24, 7 June 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep. It is the first single from a notable band, it was produced by a noteable producer, and it was released on a notable label (Doghouse, and later Vagrant).Natt the Hatt (talk) 06:11, 7 June 2008 (UTC)
  • Redirect, song fails to meet WP:MUSIC. Redirect back to album Four Minute Mile.  Esradekan Gibb  "Talk" 11:39, 7 June 2008 (UTC)
  • Redirect to the album it's on. NN on its own. Doc StrangeMailboxLogbook 20:09, 7 June 2008 (UTC)
