Writing and recording

Ref 2 does not verify the information.
The song's lyrics describe a disappointment in today's youths and an encouragement for teens to strive to be better The source says nothing about teens. It just says youth.

Composition

This section really needs to be expanded. It's one sentence long.

Reception

Ref 9 is not reliable.
Ref 11 doesn't verify "a body-shaker that sounds like a choir girl showing up to a street fight with a howitzer and a holster full of lasers. Danceable lasers"

Track listing

Reference needed
Expansion needed
Songs should be in quotes
Incorrect dashes. See WP:DASH

References

A lot of the references have incorrect titles. Stars are not needed in the reference.

The only reason I'm not failing this yet is because I don't think it meets the quick-fail criteria. I'm putting it up for a second opinion. In the mean time, the nominator/random user should attend to my comments. By the way, these comments just came about after a skim-through of the page. If the other reviewer decides not to fail this, I will go into further depth. CrowzRSA 21:28, 28 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Fail

This article is hardly a stub, the song also fails WP:NSONG and should be nominated for deletion. Writing and recording section is poorly worded and written, Track listing is completely unsourced. This article should not be passed it should instead be nominated for deletion. Im sorry but this is no where near GA status. - (CK)Lakeshade - talk2me - 21:50, 28 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
