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.
If I could only listen to one song for the rest of my life, it would be this. It is so important to me, and there's no other song that can stir up such emotion, flood my mind with feeling or take me back to times and places. There's actually a little anxiety when I choose to play this track because I know just how much it's going to shake me up, and it frightens me. This song resonates with me personally, for reasons I won't go into, but let's just say that to me this song is equal with one thing: hope.
one of my current favorite instrumental songs. clearly the best off mr. beast. i love the energetic yet somewhat downcast feeling this song has. mogwai is brilliant.
just saw mogwai live. this song may have been the greatest experience of my life. i mean, i was expecting it to be one of the better live songs, but it seriously moved me to tears. everyone in the world needs this album. best since "young team," and honestly, it might be surpassing it in my mind the more i listen to it. man. every song on mr. beast is a pure work of insanely amazing unique art. "friend of the night" is definitely my favourite track.
This is also my fav off Mr. Beast
I'd also have to say YES they are amazing live. I've seen them maybe 6 times now, and they have gotten shit tons better with their live sets. They play almost excactly what you want to here on that specific night, or it feels that way.
I've never seen them live, and I probably will never, which is a shame, really, 'cause everybody I know says Mogwai is more of a live band than an album band.
I saw Mogwai back in May or so of 2006. Nearly a year later, my memories are still so very vivid of them playing this song, with the laser show, and their green running suits with matching green shoes - the entire audience swaying to the melody - awesome.
