Draft:I Was a Sailor
| Submission declined on 30 May 2024 by Timtrent (talk). I am not persuaded that this song passes WP:NMUSIC at present. This may be a matter of WP:TOOSOON. This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of music-related topics). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

[edit]Sandra B. Olinger of Grimy Goods wrote that "with beautiful instrumentals and a child-like choir in the chorus, the song has an eerie yet soulful vibe."[5] Cleber Facchi of Música Instantânea wrote, in Portuguese, that "there are hummable melodies and voices, a structure that is completed by the insertion of beats that match the group's first records."[6]
