Non-notable song. Unreferenced since October 2006. The IP user 82.45.239.158 reverted the redirection to Gary Glitter by Mattg82. GeoffreyT2000 (talk) 04:00, 25 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Comment The article states it charted, so does that meet notability? I'm not familar with the music charts standard. If that doesn't meet the notability, then delete as an unlikely search term for a n/n entry. Lugnuts ^{Dick Laurent is dead} 09:40, 25 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect. It did chart, but only at #49 which is a low showing. There is little to say about it, so a redirect is the common outcome if there isn't much to say about the song. Ten Pound Hammer • ^{(What did I screw up now?)} 07:16, 2 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete In the UK it is generally accepted that the Top 40 is the relevant chart so in order to be notable for its position, it needs to be in that. This does not qualify. KaisaL (talk) 11:44, 2 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
