[edit] Songs about clothes

Songs about clothes (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Unencyclopedic listcruft and likely copyright violation since there is no reference for the introductory paragraphs (which, if not a reference, are themselves original research). Wyatt Riot (talk) 12:01, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

• Delete unforgivable for leaving out "My Adidas". Oh, and everything above. JuJube (talk) 12:19, 20 December 2007 (UTC)
• Comment Like a strapless gown, I have my doubts about whether this one can stay up. It appears that the author saw a list somewhere in the Dallas Morning News, but didn't know how to make a reference to it, then worked with a broad definition for clothing that includes what might be called "accesories" -- rings, bows, etc. (I still can't figure out how "Kookie, Lend Me Your Comb" got on here). This would probably be a fun category on Pyramid or Family Feud or even Jeopardy, but I can't see this as a permanent accesory to Wikipedia. Mandsford (talk) 13:21, 20 December 2007 (UTC)
• Delete, albeit weakly. It does make for an interesting game: how many songs can you think of that ought to be on the list, and ain't? The Future's So Bright, I Gotta Wear Shades by Timbuk 3 came immediately to mind, as did Rebel, Rebel by David Bowie and Sharp Dressed Man by ZZ Top. Best fashion advice in a song award, though, goes to Ride a White Swan from T Rex. Some kind of analytical article on clothing and fashion references in popular song might be written, but as a list that doesn't really link to articles, this is not that article. - Smerdis of Tlön (talk) 15:18, 20 December 2007 (UTC)
• Delete, as per above, and as unsourced WP:OR. Cirt (talk) 17:53, 20 December 2007 (UTC).

• Delete as a totally unsourced, indiscriminate list full of original research. (And because they didn't include "Tequila Makes Her Clothes Fall Off".) Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • ^{(Broken clamshells•Otter chirps)} 19:33, 20 December 2007 (UTC)
