Let's Hear It for the Boy (song)Let's Hear It for the Boy – Primary topic of the same name. Other songs from the album of the same name weren't as successful. Even without "(song)", it's more recognizable. Also, the song is more popular than the album. If moved, delete that dab page, and add hatnote. George Ho (talk) 08:47, 22 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

What's wrong with WP:PRIMARYTOPIC? Why do you easily enforce WP:DAB without thinking that it's a primary topic? --George Ho (talk) 17:21, 22 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
The album was viewed 1,700+ times in the last 90 days. The song was viewed 8,000+ times in the last 90 days. I don't think the album would qualify as primary topic, and the album itself is not as notable as the song, especially when you sing or listen to the song itself. --Gh87 in the public computer (talk) 00:15, 23 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Comment only. Which came first? The song or the album with the name? I have never understood the perverse logic that makes the album the primary topic in those instances. --Richhoncho (talk) 12:13, 23 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I researched and found out that the song went first. The movie Footloose carried the song and was released at the end of January 1984. The album came later in the middle or the end of May 1984. I'm working on the album article. --George Ho (talk) 14:03, 23 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
It was a rhetorical question. Albums are named after songs, songs are NEVER named are albums. LOL. --Richhoncho (talk) 14:39, 23 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Isn't that a joke? Even so, I didn't get it. There are ...Baby One More Time and Oops! I Did It Again. ...Wait, Like a Virgin (song) went first one week before the album. Like a Prayer (song) went first, as well. --George Ho (talk) 14:57, 23 October 2014 (UTC) (Oops... it was a joke. I got it after I misread. --George Ho (talk) 14:58, 23 October 2014 (UTC))[reply]
