Delete. "Disaster songs" is not a notable genre that reliable sources are discussing. This appears to be overlistification. (As an aside, which disaster is "Monster Mash" supposed to refer to?) --

Delete""You're a mean one Mr. Grinch" From the movie "The Grinch who stole Christmas"" The Grinch Who Stole Christmas? Anyway, I'm inclined to agree that this is an unneccessary list.

Neutral Not that the idea is bad, but a lot of songs on the list don't belong (and many are based on interpretation). The list of disasters, real and supposed, is too long, and most of these songs seem to be obscure. The "car crash" genre of songs was a strange, but familiar theme during the 1950s and 60s when
baby boomers were starting to drive, hence "Last Kiss", "Leader of the Pack", etc. I can't bring myself to vote "keep".

Delete suffers the same infirmities that most "songs about" articles do: how much "about" the subject (here a rather wide but vague one), and who tells us as much? No sources=OR.

Delete — A strange and overly broad topic to write a list of songs about. I struggle to think of any situation where people might use this list.
