This Summer (Squeeze song)

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

Not a very searchable name, but I scoured regardless and couldn't turn up any sources. For a band as big as this one, I would think the lead single of any album of theirs would get more coverage, but perhaps it's just not archived. Anyone with access to '90s copies of NME or Kerrang! (or whatever else) please give them a check. If not, this should be redirected to Ridiculous (album) as it does not show clear notability as is.

 * Weak Keep. Different journalists, for the Washington Post and the Hamilton Spectator, both called the track "buoyant".  The Independent  stated the song was "an odd reverse homage which seeks to reclaim Squeeze's rightful place in the Cockney Brit-pop hierarchy", but also "the best track here". Newsday  stated the single "is tailor-made for pop radio".  The charting of the track and the remix are both confirmed respectively by the Official Charts Company: , .  Given the charting, and the coverage found (minimal as it is), I'm leaning to week keep on the presumption offline coverage likely exists. ResonantDistortion 19:17, 9 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Keep. As a confirmed top 40 UK single by a noted band (and it actually made the UK top 40 twice), I think that fulfills the notability criteria.  I'd argue to keep. 174.95.162.236 (talk) 19:52, 13 April 2024 (UTC)
