Givin' Up (The Darkness song)
AfDs for this article: 
 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

No consensus was deduced from the previous afd. I have decided to nominate this article again in order to generate consensus from the community. The song meets none of the 4 criteria at WP:MUS/SONGS.


 * Criteria 1 The song has not been the subject of any independent coverage. All citations are taken from reviews of the album Permission to Land, therefore the album in its entirety is the subject. WP:MUS states The "subject" of a work means non-trivial treatment and excludes mere mention of the song/single. Therefore writing a sentence about a song in an album review does not indicate broad coverage.
 * Criteria 2 The song is not a single and has not charted anywhere in the world.
 * Criteria 3 The song has not won any awards or honors.
 * Criteria 4 The song has never been independently released by any other notable artist. The only other CD it has appeared on is True Music, a compilation album. See here . Bluidsports (talk) 15:23, 13 June 2013 (UTC)

Delete - I agree with the article not meeting WP:NSONG. There is no information showing this song is notable on its own and the information there should be covered under the band's page. User226 (talk) 20:56, 13 June 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete as lacking evidence of in depth coverage in independent reliable sources. If such sources are added to the article, feel free to ping my talk page. Stuartyeates (talk) 21:34, 20 June 2013 (UTC)
