Well, the 'collector's edition' is a download and the original is a stream.  I'm not sure if there are any other differences though, as I'm not going to listen to the entire stream just to compare. [[User:BubonicTheHedgehog|BubonicTheHedgehog]] 08:45, 13 November 2011 (PST)

So are these going to need transcribing? It doesn't seem like like it would be too hard, and I want to do something, these don't sound creative from the titles. "I feel like a woman" is just Chrissy singing the original without the mention of men and his normal singing problems.--Soay Sheep 21:45, 12 November 2011 (PST)

Yes, each song will have its own article for the main purpose of transcribing them. I'll throw up the template articles momentarily. --Anonymax 21:46, 12 November 2011 (PST)
I am uploading the songs to the library after they are done rendering. Abejita Cortez 21:58, 12 November 2011 (PST)

What's the difference between the original and the collectors edition? And how did the album leak? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Liquid! (talkcontribs)

Well, the 'collector's edition' is a download and the original is a stream. I'm not sure if there are any other differences though, as I'm not going to listen to the entire stream just to compare. BubonicTheHedgehog 08:45, 13 November 2011 (PST)

To ease any confusion - I just added "collectors edition" for humour value. The songs are identical. --Anonymax 10:43, 13 November 2011 (PST)

Transcribing lyrics

When we're adding lyrics to song pages, should we add the original lyrics or the lyrics that Chris is singing? Should we include the mistakes he makes and words he misses/mispronounces? --Elias 10:05, 13 November 2011 (PST)

HIMYM reference

The name of the album sounds to me like a reference to the Robin Sparkles, the stage name of Robin Scherbatsky from How I Met your Mother. Should I mention this in the article or is this too speculative? - NegaCWC (talk) 23:23, 21 May 2014 (UTC)
