Re: notability
While I do agree with Doomsdayer520's assessment that this article is not noteworthy enough for its own article, I think, stylistically, it would be better if the article was removed entirely as opposed to serving as a redirect. I feel the same about a number of the A Flock of Seagulls compilation albums that have articles, but said articles have little but a track listing (leave them to be deleted as opposed to redirecting them elsewhere). I find it unnecessary for a link to lead right back to the same page it's on, in these cases.

Bahiagrass: - I find this to be very strange reasoning. Non-notability is itself a reason to redirect, and a redirect at least removes the song as a searchable item in Wikipedia. Agreeing that the song is non-notable and then using that as a reason to bring it back into existence instead of redirecting is bizarre, to say the least. And if you think it should be totally deleted, then put it through the Articles for Deletion process. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (

Doomsdayer520: If there is a link in an article, I'd rather the link lead somewhere, as opposed for it to go straight back to the same article. In this case, say you're on the Listen page and you see a link to "Nightmares". Neat! You click it and it takes you right back to Listen. What was the point of the link in the first place then? At least with the non-redirect link, you're taken to a page about the specific thing you clicked on, regardless of how informative it may be. Regardless, I will toy with the idea of placing it for deletion.
