So while elements in the article fail verification (the charts), the existence of this song itself is not a hoax. So this is not a G3, and due to non-verifiable content it is not an A9.

395:. The "cover art" just looks somebody put text over a stock image of a woman talking on a pay phone, so I tagged that with speedy deletion.
