Songs that start with telephone sounds
Prod removed because someone disagreed that this should be deleted without discussion, so listing now. My main concern with this article is that there is nothing special about songs that start with telephone sounds. If this is kept it opens the door for Songs that start with burping noises, Songs that start with baboons arguing, and Songs that start with with someone saying the word banana. In other words, it opens the door for a list of songs that start with ANYTHING, a potentially endless amount of lists. My other concern was that this list was entirely unsourced, however the person who removed the prod added a couple sources for individual songs. The vast majority still isn't sourced.

 * Keep. I think it's an interesting list, bearing in mind the surprising number of songs for which this quite specific criteria is true. I don't see why it can't remain. Additionally, I disagree about it being unsourced. The primary source is implicit in the content - all you need to do to verify whether a particular song meets the criteria is to listen to the song in question! That's a better source than anything written about a particular song. --David Edgar 17:03, 22 September 2006 (UTC)
