Will put up comments shortly. NumerounovedantTalk 18:01, 14 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I am sorry this might be another couple of days, before I put up the comments. NumerounovedantTalk 05:14, 17 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry for the delay, so here are some early observations :

  • Do we have any sort of information on how the song was received? By the critics or the audience? Anyone at all?
  • Do we have any notable cover versions worth mentioning?
  • Any sort of information available on the music structure or the background of the lyrics maybe?

The lead could include a sentence or two on the reception of the track (with a separate "Reception" section in the body of course), and can be split into two paragraphs then. NumerounovedantTalk 10:37, 19 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Also, the lack of any discussion on the track's impact or reception (or any third party discussion at all), leads me to question it's notability. NumerounovedantTalk 10:43, 19 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Carbrera: A little reminder. NumerounovedantTalk 17:42, 22 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Numerounovedant: Thank you for your concerns. I'll answer them in chronological order. Due to the single's limited release, "If I Close My Eyes" just wasn't really received by critics. From experience, it has always been hard to find significant (and trustworthy, reliable) reviews of a song from this long ago (especially if the song wasn't hugely popular), but I do believe notability has been established as "If I Close My Eyes" was the theme song to a successful film and (this doesn't always help) was released in the physical format. I'll double-check on any notable cover versions and get back to you ASAP. Regards, Carbrera (talk) 19:29, 22 January 2017 (UTC).[reply]
@Carbrera: Do you want to do this some other time? I mean when you are not as occupied? This isn't really going anywhere. NumerounovedantTalk 15:25, 31 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Numerounovedant: Yes, you may close this. Thank you very much for your time. Carbrera (talk) 23:53, 31 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
