Obviously songs have bass and some feature bass more prominently than others, but I see no sources to suggest that "bass song" is a notable topic in its own right. Adumbrativus (talk) 06:17, 14 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

As the original author, I agree that it should be deleted. When I created this page (as an extreme newbie) the page Bass music did not yet exist. In 10-year retrospect, that is what this article should have been named. I was just too inexperienced at the time. I do believe bass songs are a notable topic, like the ones from Bass Mekanik and the artists on his record label. In my mind, they are good examples of songs where bass is their express purpose. But any discussion about that "genre" should go on Bass music. AnsonMBO (talk) 07:52, 14 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete not a real genre - "songs" where "bass is their express purpose"? that could describe a lot of different styles, stretching back at least 50 years. Acousmana (talk) 12:01, 16 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: the article creator above has it right. Since this article was created, "bass music" has become an accepted term to describe a certain genre of electronic dance music, and it has been discussed in several reliable sources. But nobody really talks about "bass songs" so it's not a particularly useful search term, and this article is original research, so there's nothing with sources to merge to the Bass music article. If anything, it might be worth considering merging UK bass into Bass music, but that's not for this AfD. Richard3120 (talk) 13:54, 16 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as per the two reasons above and the author of the article is requesting deletion as well. - 𓋹 𝓩𝓲𝓪𝓭 𝓡𝓪𝓼𝓱𝓪𝓭 𓋹 [user | talk] 15:41, 16 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
