- It is reasonably well written.
- a (prose):
b (MoS): 
- You should omit the release date of the album, as it's release date is irrelevant to the song. The second paragraph says, "…and elsewhere in the world its success varied: it reached number one in the Netherlands' Dutch Top 40." maybe should be changed to "…and elsewhere in the world its success varied, peaking at number one in the Netherlands' Dutch Top 40." Sentence right after, "The track received positive reviews,…" → "The song received positive reviews,…" This happens more than once throughout the article.
- Check. -- ThinkBlue (Hit BLUE) 21:00, 25 November 2008 (UTC)

- a (prose):
- It is factually accurate and verifiable.
- a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):
- References number three and twenty-eight don't work. References number seven and thirty-two are forums, which aren't reliable sources. The brackets in the title of reference number twelve messes with link; might want to just remove those brackets. Also, if you can find a better reference for number twenty-four, rather than just a link to the mashup, it would help. Reference number thirty-one doesn't cite anything past the first sentence in the last paragraph of the 'Music video' section.
- Check and couldn't find a better source for ref. 24. In my opinion, I don't really think it should stay in the article. Thoughts? -- ThinkBlue (Hit BLUE) 21:00, 25 November 2008 (UTC)

- a (references):
- It is broad in its coverage.
- a (major aspects): b (focused):
- Under the 'Release' section, do we need to know the day the song peaked and where it retired on any chart?
- No, but I left the date that the song debut in the chart, sorta important to have and removed the date it retired. -- ThinkBlue (Hit BLUE) 21:00, 25 November 2008 (UTC)
