– I doubt that the current subject at this title is the primary topic of this title, or that there is one. I propose to move this article, and the disambiguation page, and redirect this title to the disambiguation page once moved. I would also be fine with moving the disambiguation page to the capitalized title, and redirecting the lowercase title their. bd2412 T 20:36, 11 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Support. The one going through my head right now is the Ultravox one, but I am of that age. I also like Carole King but never knew it was a song wot she co-wrote. DAB to primary is best I think. 94.21.234.169 (talk) 23:36, 11 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Strong oppose. The Ultravox song was a top ten hit in several countries and has been covered by numerous artists. No other songs with this title have an article; the Kesha song is a non-notable album track, as seems to be the Carole King song. The only other usage on Wikipedia is the Ultravox compilation album which is clearly of lesser significance. Low page views for the dab page do not suggest that many users are looking for other things. I would only support moving the dab page to Dancing with Tears in My Eyes (disambiguation) since all uses are capitalised titles. PC78 (talk) 23:37, 11 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

(edit conflict) Having checked the entries at the DAB, the first has two blue links to King and Goffin, the second to three at Dubin, Burke and Waltz. I have checked all the articles and none mentions "tears". Dubin mentions a different song. The DAB itself is not DABBing properly per MOS:DABENTRIES. Much as I love Carole Kings music, and Ultravox, nobody is going to find anything about this song at King's article or Goffin's or Dubin's or in the article about the waltz. So the DAB is somewhat in need of repair first. 94.21.234.169 (talk) 23:52, 11 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
