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.
Post September 11 (I guess that's when it happened), it was changed to Salt Sweat Sugar. On the copies I've seen in record stores recently (I'm in Australia), they all say Salt Sweat Sugar. There's no mention of "Bleed American" anywhere on the cover.
i have the bleed american cover, i got it on amazon like a year ago, so i think its still in circulation if any die-hard fans want the un-edited albulm
asphalt is the stuff they cover roads with dude. i love this song, fucking good guitar on it. they shouldn't have changed the song title though. it might have got more sales out of shock value... that's how madonna gets all her sales.
