The articles fails WP:NSONGS. Of the dozen or more sources used, most are derived from album reviews. Per the guideline, songs with content derived within the context of an album should not have an article. Please note that chart positions do not support notability. Even though "Lucky Strike" is a song that was certified gold in the U.S., third-party coverage--which is the one and only determining criteria for notability--is insufficient.

 * Redirect the Overexposed songs to the album article as I could not find evidence of signficant coverage in third-party, reliable sources. I believe the "Hands All Over" song should also be redirected to the album article. I was initially hesitant about the last one since it received a music video (but I could not find any subsantial coverage there) and it is harder to do a search for this since the song and album share the same name.

 * The only third-party coverage for the music video was from RTTNews, so I think it is fair to say that it is not notable. I agree that as the title track it is hard to find sources covering the song independent from the album. HĐ (talk) 04:35, 6 January 2021 (UTC)


 * "Wipe Your Eyes" — Redirect to Overexposed. Not a notable song, fails WP:NSONGS. Also it's poorly sourced. AngelOfDestiny (talk) 17:23, 7 January 2021 (UTC)
 * How about songs other than "Wipe Your Eyes"? HĐ (talk) 16:31, 7 January 2021 (UTC)


 * I suppose based on your reasoning that a Redirect sounds fair enough. Foxnpichu (talk) 22:00, 7 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Redirect all, none meet WP:NSONGS.  Onel 5969  TT me 23:59, 7 January 2021 (UTC)
