The Real Thing (Faith No More song)
Nominated for deletion per notability. Thanks Dubc0724 15:56, 28 August 2006 (UTC)


 * This nomination was malformed. I have fixed it now (Liberatore, 2006). 15:22, 31 August 2006 (UTC)


 * Delete. Nothing in the article suggests that it's a particularly notable song that needs mention beyond the page about the band itself. Zaxem 03:23, 4 September 2006 (UTC)


 *  AFD relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached.  Please add new discussions below this notice. Thanks, Baseball  Baby  09:46, 6 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Comment could just redirect to the album The Real Thing (Faith No More album)... but yeah, no reason for a standalone article here.  It was never released as a single.--Isotope23 16:10, 6 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment, it appears this was done as part of the Wikiproject songs... again, no real strong opinion here, but whatever the outcome of this is it should also be done to Woodpecker from Mars which is another song article from this album for a song that was never released as a single.--Isotope23 16:15, 6 September 2006 (UTC)


 * strong delete. There is no need for articles containing 2-line descriptions of every song on an album. That info should be put in the album article. I.e. unless it is released as a single. Spearhead 21:15, 6 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. I recall this being played on 2JJJ in 1990 but 2JJJ plays lots of album tracks. It might have been released as a single but unlike Epic wasn't a hit. Certainly we would want more information about it. Capitalistroadster 03:41, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment I can't speak for what they released as singles in AU, but in the States they only released the first three album tracks as singles ("From Out Of Nowhere", "Epic", & "Falling to Pieces"); the first had no real impact, but the other two were hits. I've heard their cover of "War Pigs"  as well as "Zombie Eaters" on a local radio station that used to play album tracks by request after midnight... but IMO non-single album tracks don't need an article unless there is something substantial to say about them.--Isotope23 13:23, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment Main article not really bad layout. Other songs have own articles as well. User:Yy-bo 19:06, 9 September 2006 (UTC)
