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.
this is such a beautiful song.
the music video is perfect. I can definitely relate to the man trying to give out his balloons. he walks all over but nobody wants them, they just think he's got some weird motive and they either turn him down or run away.
Definitely for those rainy days when the daily grind of same shit/different day wears you down to tears or worse; then its time for Low, off in a dark corner strumming along with the fewest chords possible, not swaggering, not tooting their horn- just spare, direct, honest, & a comforting shoulder, disarming humbleness.
Musical simplicity that shouldn't work so well but does?
Maybe i'm getting it wrong, I haven't made it through most of their material yet,even if the songs I have heard impressed me a lot & minimalist sounds (in what world is this 'rock'?) are often very soothing & hypnotic

It has everything that relates to a relapse.
