There is very little, if any significant coverage on this person. The cited sources are weak at best with many relying on subject's own United States copyright filing, which anyone who compose any writing/music can file. It also appears that the subject himself is heavily involved in promoting the page from editing pattern. There are two contributors with names that implies close tie with the subject. At least two anonymous editors in same geographical region with same spelling error pattern. Details in article's talk page.Cantaloupe2 (talk) 12:54, 16 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as non-notable, the only reliable sources I can find are for a mathematitian (sp?) who also happens to named Michael Guy. --Madison-chan (talk) 14:01, 16 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: the mathematician has his own Wikipedia article, Michael J. T. Guy. HairyWombat 16:13, 16 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: Not notable. I was going to suggest a Merge into the article House of Lords, but Guy was only with them for a year (1990 to 1991) and is one of many former members. Guy's other bands (Hurricane, Shark Island) are barely notable, if at all. Nor does he seem to be notable as a songwriter, as very few (two?) of his songs have been recorded.
