Should be deleted, with a redirection back to the parent album Red. Per WP:NSONGS, whilst charting does make a song a notable, notability aside there should be extensive coverage of the song as a primary subject. In this case there isnt, and chart positions could easily be added back to the album. — Lil_℧niquℇ №1 ^[talk] 17:23, 28 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Merge to the album. Can be adequately summarized there. --Michig (talk) 07:25, 4 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The album article is already to verbose that this is not feasible in the first place because it is in great violation of SIZERULE, so that is the reason these must either be deleted or kept. They meet the criterion of No. 2 and these sources confirm No. 1 The Huffington Post and The Wall Street Journal. So, now it must be kept, or else wikipedia's rules don't matter at all!HotHat (talk) 04:38, 5 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

'Keep per HotHat. I distrust any deletion rationale that includes the phrase "notability aside." --Cerebellum (talk) 08:39, 12 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
