Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.
Respect the structure
Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.
Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)
Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.
Don’t mix versions
If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.
Let the lyrics be lyrics
This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.
Edit lightly
If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’
When in doubt, ask the crowd
Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
it's the most magnificent song to ever grace my ears. if i could only have one song to listen to for the rest of my life, it would be this one. it's beauty is undescribable, and it makes me cry and smile as well. it stirrs something up inside of me, it feels like a deep melancholic sadness but also has some happiness to it. this is truly the definition of beauty.
What I really like about the () album is that because it has no title, no song names, no sleeve notes and no discernable lyrics, the experience is purely musical and you can make of it whatever you want. To me, this song makes me thing of being lost in the fog, or a deep forest. When it goes into track 3, that makes me think of finding something in the fog which is magnificent, beautiful or simply a curiously, like a castle or something. Both are amazing pieces of music.
