Talk:Recurring lyrics
Year Zero lyrics
Year Zero has not been released yet. Therefore, no lyrics except for the leaks. -Heroicraptor 19:39, 22 March 2007 (PDT)
Temporary Protection
I'm gonna temporarily protect this so I can remove all the extra wiki links and then save my edit and not have it erase anyone else's edits. -Heroicraptor 12:36, 20 March 2007 (PDT)
- Done. -Heroicraptor 14:07, 20 March 2007 (PDT)
- What's the point of this? This is a dynamic list, meaning items will keep getting added and deleted, so you'll have to keep rearranging the top link for each song, which is unnecessary effort. If someone actually wanted to click to a song article, they don't want to scroll to the top to find the first occurrence of the song name. Pomte 18:11, 23 March 2007 (PDT)
- I think I recall Malechite saying that extra links slow down the database. -Heroicraptor 00:43, 5 April 2007 (PDT)
Grammar Errors in songs
More an anecdote than anything else.... On The Fragile, Trent makes the same grammatical error twice, and it could have been easily avoided both times. The Great Below: "The destiny I’ve chose"... Why not "The destiny I chose"? We're In This Together: "Watching fate as it flows down the path we have chose"... why not "...down the path that we chose"? It's only marginally related to recurring lyrics, I suppose. Recurring jarringly bad grammar? (Ok, not exactly encyclopaedic, but that's what the Talk: page is for, right?) --Mr z 23:45, 6 March 2007 (PST)
- Well, grammar mistakes are not an uncommon when it comes to lyrics, they're often if not always knowingly put in as it may sound better. Wolf 01:03, 7 March 2007 (PST)
- I first heard The Great Below as "the destiny of choice" which sounds more poetic to me. Started a list at Grammatically incorrect lyrics. I think it's encyclopedic for our purposes. Pomte 01:42, 7 March 2007 (PST)
Alot of the junk on that page is just generic words. Why hasn't "I can still feel you" been added?
On the fragile left side, the great below has, "All I do, I can still feel you" and on the fragile right side, on underneath it all there's, "I can still feel you, even so far away". Plus I believe I've heard this on other tracks.--Velvolver 06:56, 20 March 2007 (PDT)
- Well, the point is to add it yourself. The more generic words, when agreed upon, should be deleted. Pomte 18:11, 23 March 2007 (PDT)
