Summary[edit]

Media data and Non-free use rationale
Description	A 21 second sample of "No", a song by singer-songwriter Meghan Trainor, taken from her 2016 album Thank You
Author or copyright owner	(C) Epic Records
Source (WP:NFCC#4)	Thank You album
Use in article (WP:NFCC#7)	No (Meghan Trainor song)
Purpose of use in article (WP:NFCC#8)	It illustrates an educational article that specifically discusses the song from which this sample was taken. The section of the music used is discussed in the article in relation to the song's genre (dance-pop), production (crisp guitar instrumentation, a beat reminiscent of The Neptunes, its melody and guitar screeches) and lyrics of the refrain (particularly the repetition of the word "no"), which received critical commentary.
Not replaceable with free media because (WP:NFCC#1)	As a sample from a copyright musical recording, the sample is not replaceable by free content; any other sample from the same recording would also be copyrighted, and any version that is not true to the original would be inadequate for identification or commentary. Using a different sample would be misleading as to the identity of the work.
Not replaceable with textual coverage because (WP:NFCC#1)	A music piece shall best be illustrated with a sound sample, since text alone cannot convey the production.
Minimal use (WP:NFCC#3)	The sample lasts for no longer than 10% of that of the original recording
Respect for commercial opportunities (WP:NFCC#2)	It would not likely to replace the original market role of the original copyrighted material as it is only 19.6 seconds of song over 3 minutes in length and at a lower quality than the original.
Other information	The audio sample is a copyrighted work. U.S. copyright laws apply to this work. Should a free or public domain sample be located, it should be used in place of this audio sample. The use of this excerpt is in good faith, and that its inclusion enhances the quality of the article without reducing the commercial value of the recording from which it was extracted.
