Should I Stay or Should I Go, The Clash
Darling you got to let me knowShould I stay or should I go?If you say that you are mineI'll be here 'til the end of timeSo you got to let me knowShould I stay or should I go?
It's always tease, tease, teaseYou're happy when I'm on my kneesOne day it's fine and next it's blackSo if you want me off your backWell, come on and let me knowShould I stay or should I go?

A little something Doug may have unsuccessfully tried as a gate song. Based on the lyrics, he'd have figured it likely involved travel or divination, but would've been stumped as to the actual effect without extensive testing.
I figure it winds up as a type of Weal or Woe augury effect. Doug has to start the song while thinking hard about a goal and a plan for reaching that goal. If the plan is not likely to result in successfully reaching the goal, the augury tells him to stay. If the plan is likely to result in successfully reaching the goal, the augury tells him to go.
Of course this doesn't tell Doug if it is a good plan or if there are better ways to achieve his goal.
