Shut Me Up

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

Only charted on singles sales charts, never entered the official Hot 100 or Hot Dance Club charts. Only assertation of notability is that Jhonen Vasquez directed the video (which has me very, very curious as to what the video looks like even though 99.9% of punk rock makes my ears bleed). No third party sources, fails WP:MUSIC criteria for individual songs.

 * Delete. This is one case where the article title is probably more imperative than descriptive.  Delete per nom.Tyrenon (talk) 06:59, 4 June 2009 (UTC)

 * Comment - Not sure why sales charts are irrelevant. Rlendog (talk) 13:28, 12 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Merge and Redirect to You'll Rebel to Anything, the album the song is off of. Doc StrangeMailbox Logbook 03:00, 15 June 2009 (UTC)

 * Keep. The song is well-known and the single is notable. It received airplay internationally and still does, I hear it in bars and clubs pretty regularly in the UK. There are far, far less notable songs with articles, and I therefore believe this is a case of a song that didn't chart being notable (and there's plenty like that - Doesn't every single Beatles song have an article, after all?). I also must question the original nomination as, if "99% of punk rock makes your ears bleed" then you really don't know much about the topic in question. Not to mention this isn't a punk rock song in the first place, but that's a moot point here. Esteffect (talk) 17:35, 24 June 2009 (UTC)
