GA review

This article doesn't seem developed enough for GA yet. The section on the content and samples is unsourced, and overall, the page seems under-developed. Furthermore, the chart positions aren't sourced. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • ^{(Broken clamshells•Otter chirps)} 22:33, 21 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
