| The Darling Buds – If I Said Lyrics | 12 years ago |
| I submitted the lyrics that I transcribed them and they approved them but when I looked they had just copied incorrect lyrics from Lyricfind instead of using my accurate ones. What is the point of having a lyrics wiki if you just keep reposting the same wrong lyrics that all the other sites use? | |

| Guided by Voices – Hold On Hope Lyrics | 12 years ago |
| A lot of their early tunes would have flown big on mainstream radio if they'd had sexy production like Do The Collapse. Even Goldheart, rearranged, lengthened and polished, could have dented the charts. | |
