Delete Didn't chart, no sources, notability not inherited from artist. Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • ^{(Otters want attention)} 04:01, 30 August 2011 (UTC) Keep per sources.Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • ^{(Otters want attention)} 19:44, 7 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Hang on; I'm finding some sources. Paul Erik ^{(talk)(contribs)} 04:34, 31 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Keep – I've added multiple sources. None of these are entirely about the song, but that would be unusual for a song anyway. There's enough coverage to meet WP:N, though. The sources seem to focus on how the band was the target of a record-label bidding war, and that followed quickly on the heels of this Sub Pop single, making it an important single in rock music history (or at least Smashing Pumpkins history). Also, I was able to cobble together enough reviews to begin a reasonable "critical reception" section. Paul Erik ^{(talk)(contribs)} 03:09, 1 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Keep No reason for deletion. Look at WP:NOTABLE. Alex^{discussion ★} 14:49, 7 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Nominator Lachlanusername please look for sources, you'd save everybody a lot of time. I cannot even contemplate how anybody could think a single by one of the biggest bands of the 90s is not notable.♦ Dr. Blofeld 20:03, 7 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
