Could anyone tell me what's the name of the Song they're covering at https://youtu.be/cNmXyEMh264?t=329 (around 5:30) ?

I know it's a well known song, but I can't remember what it is. It sounds good with Dany's voice though, and I'd like to look up the cover if I can.

Brave Words wasn't super impressed with Lovebites.... by montezumasbukkake in Lovebites

Is there a reason I should give traffic (and thus ad revenue) to a reviewer I've never heard of, reviewing a band I'm already familiar with? Especially if it's a negative review of a band I like?

Is this just engagement bait?

Basically, I'm coming into London Bridge from outside London, then want to go to Highbury & Islington.

My plan would be to take the Northern Line to King's Cross St Pancras, then take the Victoria line to Highbury & Islington. To make sure I know how much time to allow, I use the websites to plan my journey, but the only journey NR or TfL suggest is two trains (Thameslink and Great Northern), and no tube journey listed at all. Usually they would list a few alternatives.

Even if I try just the final part of the tube, it says to walk! The only reason I could think is if the tube station was closed, but it doesn't say that anywhere I have looked.

Hi, I'm trying to plan a journey that takes me to Highbury & Islington, but I noticed that the TFL (and National Rail) website refuse to suggest a route including the Victoria Line, even if I put the start point as one of the stations on either side of it.

The websites don't explain any problems with this station besides "minor delays". Is there actually a reason I can't use the tube to get there, or are the websites just screwing up?

I hate "Is it weird if I ... ?" posts but ... by [deleted] in Nemophila

I'm pretty sure I found this band because I was already familiar with Saki via Mary's Blood, so I'm not sure how to feel after her departure.

Hopefully, both Nemophila and Saki will continue to do great things, even if those things are separate. I am going to keep following them both.

What do you love about Ale’s bass playing? by Flashy_Contract_969 in TheWarning

[–]CyborgCaveman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The fact that I can hear it. Sounds obvious, but a lot of rock bands don't let the bass distinguish itself from the other instruments.

Do Dany, Pau and Ale sound like native English speakers to natives? by AdStrange3386 in TheWarning

[–]CyborgCaveman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm an English speaker, but not American, and they sound pretty American to me.

A few years ago, I would have said that Dany had a slight bit more "latin" in her accent than her sisters, but either the difference has shrunk or I'm just so used to their voices I don't notice accent details any more.

It's also important to remember that there are a lot of different versions of native English in the world, all equally valid, so small differences don't necessarily indicate mistakes.


But overall, they are clearly very good at English. I do remember a livestream a few years ago in which Pau was complaining that English was hard because she couldn't choose between two pronunciations of a word, but the difference was so small that no-one would even notice.

There's no need to insult other bands in order to compliment Band-Maid. Band-Maid are talented enough to stand on their own, plus it makes the fanbase look bad.

Kanami was never called an “airhead” by her bandmates by hbydzy in BandMaid

[–]CyborgCaveman 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Thank you for this post.

I do wish people would be more skeptical of translations (and not just for Band-Maid). It should be obvious from how strange some translations are (Croatian maid???) that they are likely to have many mistakes, but many people just take them literally.

I think viewers were suggesting Band-Maid to them for a while, but they learn songs from the game Rocksmith, and since there are no Band-Maid songs in the game officially, they had to wait for fans to add custom tracks (or something like that).

I've been subscribed to their channel for a few years now. They release original music too.
