Carolina girls

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

The song has not been released as a single. Therefore, it should be deleted per WP:SONG. Sam Blab 23:58, 4 October 2008 (UTC) Cristian Cappiello (talk) 18:10, 5 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep Then please call all the radio stations here and throughout the Carolinas and tell them to stop playing it. I've moved here 16 years ago, and I hear that song on the radio more than Stairway to Heaven.  It has even been rewritten more than once to use in commercials, including for Carolina Dodge.  Googling it comes up with about 19k hits.  A lot of old songs weren't released as singles, yet became very popular and notable.  For that matter, a few B Sides ended up more popular than the A side (see B side for a couple of examples.)  At the very least, the song is regionally VERY notable, still very popular (unfortunately), and sources can be found.  Lyrics, too. P HARMBOY  ( TALK ) 00:26, 5 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Hereare a few small examples of what I mean, including interviews and newspaper articles.  Some are weaker than others, but it shows how popular this song really is. P HARMBOY  ( TALK ) 00:35, 5 October 2008 (UTC)
 * I have updated the article with a few of the references. Even if it wasn't a song, there are enough references, including interviews, to pass now.  Most of these weren't on the first page (or 5th) of a google search, due to how common the phrase is outside of the song.  P HARMBOY  ( TALK ) 01:18, 5 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Weak keep not my field really, but I was impressed by the revised article. DGG (talk) 04:57, 5 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Thanks I actually hate the song and Beach Music in general, but know that it is notable. I have added some more refs as well.  P HARMBOY  ( TALK ) 12:29, 5 October 2008 (UTC)
