This trope has only 22 wicks, despite existing since 2011, making it Starving per Wick. I don't think it can gain more wicks right now as none of the examples on the page appear to have context and there are major issues with Type Labels Are Not Examples. Apparently the page says "This trope's examples are far too numerous to list; a few examples for explanatory purposes will do.", but do we really do exceptions like that? In any case, this doesn't change the issues I brought up earlier. Honestly, I'd argue it's cut material (because who's to say a summer vacation pop song inserting words like "sun", "heat", "love", "sea", and other stuff like that is a trope?)

Considering the lack of wicks and the abundance of ZCEs in the on-page example list, along with the fact that reused lyrics aren't specific to metal (as previously mentioned), I'm inclined to just cut this similarly to what we did with Stock Episode Titles.

Patiently awaiting the release of Paper Luigi and the Marvelous Compass.

According to my notes, this page should be eviscerated with steel and buried beneath the full moon in accordance with prophecy.

With a dozen votes in favor of cutting (including the opening post), how about we waive the Three-Day Rule and go ahead and shred this now.

Patiently awaiting the release of Paper Luigi and the Marvelous Compass.
