List of songs with only one word in their title

 * Delete. Not useful, who would need such a list? - splot 02:23, 15 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep. Alot of lists may be subtrivial, but subtrivial value is separate from degree of public interest, not to mention, not too many songs are only one word long. (unsigned comment from anon)
 * Delete. Listcruft run amok. This not only serves no useful purpose, but is so broad a definition the list could run into the thousands of titles. 23skidoo 02:49, 15 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. I'm surprised there are so few songs listed. I think I could easily grab a few hundred from my iTunes library, but I just don't see the point. Mrtea 03:21, 15 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete, I suppose. Unless they're really notable one-word songs for some reason, there's too many to just add. Case in point: From my near-700 MP3 collection, I found 120 songs with only one word, which totalled up to nearly 8-and-a-half-hours. There's just too many, and there's not enough rules (what about nonsense words? Words with numbers? Names?). Sillstaw 03:25, 15 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete what could the use of such a list possibly be? --W.marsh 03:51, 15 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete - one word, six letters. Edwardian 04:16, 15 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Question. Is this the same jolly contributor who brought us List of Songs with an Adverb in the Title and List of Songs with a Fraction or Non-Integer in the Title? &spades;DanMS 05:17, 15 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete, have no problem with lists, but can't really see a use for this one. - Mgm|(talk) 09:58, 15 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. Arbitrary criteria, no unifying theme or subject, and a hopelessly broad scope mean that this list will never be a useful navigation aid. - A Man In Black (conspire | past ops) 10:23, 15 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. Listcrust. I hate listcruft. Reyk 10:26, 15 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete junk list. Dottore So 10:56, 15 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete per many of the comments above. Unmaintainable. Thousands of songs have only one title, and I don't think Imagine or One (U2 or Metallica - take your pick) are on it. --MacRusgail 13:46, 15 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete, and I'm a big supporter of lists. Now we just have to wait for List of songs with more than one word in their title... Turnstep 14:47, 15 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete I am probably one of the more inclusionist AfD voters in regard to lists, but this does not meet even my loose standard of whorthwhileness. Youngamerican 16:32, 15 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete, deplorable liscruft. Punkmorten 20:42, 15 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete does not seem well thought out --TimPope 20:55, 15 November 2005 (UTC)


 * Help!: I mean delete. (Distinction without difference.)  Geogre 21:52, 15 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete listcruft --Jaranda(watz sup) 22:15, 15 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep. May not be very useful but someone might be needing to use this list. This list needs to be expanded.
