 * Comment I just realized this is a fictional band created on the show "Teen Titans Go". Yet another reason to delete it. Rockypedia (talk) 23:39, 3 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Well, I'm not sure being an animated band is a good reason to delete them, otherwise we would have got rid of number-one singles like "Sugar, Sugar" by the Archies and "Do the Bartman" by the Simpsons. And they have had a single that has charted on two different Billboard charts, so perhaps if there isn't anything more to say about B.E.R. themselves, their article could be redirected to "The Night Begins to Shine".

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Redirect to song. Owning to shortness and lack of information, there should certainly not be separate articles for this band and their only song The Night Begins to Shine, even if you could argue both meet notability standards. Redirecting to song seems more sensible, but I'm not certain which is more notable, more common, or more likely to be searched for (although it's probably easier to search for song title). Little or no content to be merged from here. --Colapeninsula (talk) 12:39, 5 Ja'''nuary 2018 (UTC)

 * Redirect Weighing in with the multiple re-listings. Redirect to (preferably) Teen Titans Go! or The Night Begins to Shine, baring that article also popping up as an AfD. It’s true this “band” charted in the lower 20's with this song from the cartoon, but did anyone read the source from Billboard? It’s chart position reflects 7,000 digital downloads for the single and 3,000 for the album. Pretty feeble to merit a wikipedia article about the fictional band that is used to market it.

 * Redirect to song. Although the song did get a lot of news coverage, the band doesn't even exist and the only songs credited to them were for a TV show. --XenonNSMB (talk, contribs) 02:09, 23 January 2018 (UTC)
