  • Support move, provided James Arthur's "Recovery" will also have its own article under Recovery (James Arthur song). werldwayd (talk) 17:33, 2 December 2013 (UTC).Reply
  • Support per WP:DAB. User:Werldwayd, my understanding of first paragraph of WP:DAB is that it doesn't matter whether a topic has its own article or not, is this not so? Recovery (James Arthur song) already redirects to and is covered by the album. We could do with less single articles. It looks like some are being creating because of misunderstanding of the non-song/pop music rest of Wikipedia's disambiguation practices, when they'd be better in the album article - though admittedly the fair use with images is unclear as to whether single covers can be included in album articles.

  • Oppose until there's another article that could logically be at the same name. --BDD (talk) 00:51, 10 December 2013 (UTC)Reply
  • I have already voted, but I have to reiterate my stronger support as the song by James Arthur has started charting all over the world. On yesterday Sunday's BBC update of the UK Singles chart, it appears at number 19. See http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio1/chart/singles (at #19)... It has also charted in Scotland at number 20, Ireland at number 43, and also in Belgium Utratip chart at #40 See http://www.ultratop.be/nl/weekchart.asp?cat=st. (position #40) Many others I suspect will be coming based on this wonderful performance http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vxlZRrMzn6s. I believe Justin Bieber's "Recovery" should be also relegated to Recovery (Justin Bieber song). Here is a page indicating other "Recovery" songs by many including one by Olivia Newton John. Move suggested is well merited. Incidentally in answer to colleague BDD, I have now created a page for James Arthur's "Recovery". Hopefully this will expedite a decision either way. werldwayd (talk) 06:01, 10 December 2013 (UTC)Reply
  • Support No WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. --BDD (talk) 17:29, 10 December 2013 (UTC)Reply
  • Support per WP:SONGDAB now that there is a Recovery (James Arthur song) article (assuming that the other article won't get deleted). —BarrelProof (talk) 23:54, 15 December 2013 (UTC)Reply
