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 the second of the two instrumental songs that close the album "Avatar Country." The frontman Johannes Eckerstrom said: "It´s all about doing stuff we haven´t done before. ... it´s a really interesting challenge for us to work on an instrumental which also tells a story. Just like the other songs - they ended up on the album because they communicated something emotionally. That´s how I end up writing lyrics – this made me feel something and it made me envision something, and then I put pen to paper. It all starts with the music, and to have something with all those emotions in an instrumental song is a true challenge. The electronic song is called “Winter Comes When the King Dreams of Snow”, and to me that is exactly what that song sounds like – it sounds like a dream of snow. Likewise, on “The King´s Palace”, to me that is grand architecture in musical form."
