I looked over the article and, unfortunately, will have to fail it. While it has the makings of a good article and is off to a strong start, it does not come close enough to GA standards to merit a thorough review. Major areas of improvement include:

  • The article needs a solid copyedit.
  • The lead section does not summarize the article.
  • The citations and references do not follow consistent and correct formatting--although many of them are done well.
  • Most of the sections do not have thorough coverage; most only have one paragraph, and sometimes one sentence.
  • If the "Further reading" section actually includes references, that needs to be renamed "Bibliography" (especially since I see some parenthetical citations that likely correspond to those book sources)
  • Some of the information is not relevant to the song (eg. information about the artist's childhood)

I recommend that you thoroughly study some good song articles (eg. Like a Virgin (song), All Through the Night (Cyndi Lauper song), and Bidi Bidi Bom Bom) for ideas and examples of what a GA song article should look like. Feel free to resubmit the article for GA consideration when improvements are made. Best wishes and happy editing!--Esprit15d • talkcontribs 16:24, 21 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
