[edit] post-undelete

The article was tagged and deleted for the following: notability, original research, unencyclopedic, unreferenced. At my request, it was undeleted.

To address these issues:

  • notability: it has 11 mentions in wikipedia, 21k google hits with correct band name, 182k google hits just on the title, and is repeatedly mentioned in the all music guide writeup of the band. That sounds notable to me.
  • original research: I'm not sure which parts that's an issue with.
  • unencyclopedic: I have to admit a slight bias since I contributed to the article, but I didn't do the first two sections, which strike me as well written, encylopedic in tone, relevant, and accurate description of a topic that seems notable.
  • references: definitely the key problem. I've added a refs section that points to the "all music guide" entries for the band and for the album, which support the initial paragraph; the song is mentioned repeatedly in that description. I also added links for the lyrics and the video, as well as a link to the cv of the video's director. So hopefully we're ok on this...

I've pulled the problem tags from the article.
