  • Speedy Keep A Google Books search contradicts the nominator's claim of a non-notable song. Regent of the Seatopians (talk) 02:30, 29 September 2010 (UTC)
  • Speedy Keep, speedy close. Once again, we have a completely uninformed nomination of a major song by a major songwriter, possibly the worst since the Dead Flowers AFD. WP:NSONGS says that "that have been independently released as a recording by several notable artists, bands or groups are probably notable"; when that holds, as here, it's a waste of other editors' time to advance a nomination without any rational explanation of a claim of non-notability, especially when there's no effort made to determine if sources are available. There's more than enough coverage of the song in the reviews and related coverage of the the 1970s Marianne Faithfull album alone, print coverage that can't be readily ound online. The Google Books search results are just the tip of an iceberg. Hullaballoo Wolfowitz (talk) 04:14, 29 September 2010 (UTC)
