If anyone thinks that inaccurate citations are a new feature unique to AI, there are ample citation audit studies to burst your bubble.

Girls be like:

All at once two voices shouted out to: “Halt!” One was my Jonathan’s, raised in a high key of passion; the other Mr. Morris’ strong resolute tone of quiet command. The gypsies may not have known the language, but there was no mistaking the tone, in whatever tongue the words ...

One 12th favorite song of the year, and the way Dobson & Cunningham's vocals split, land on slightly dissonant notes, then come back together in unison is a big part of it.

Now that we've had a bit of time to enjoy this season of Hazbin, what's your fav song?
Live to Live is mine. The line
'Mistakes are innate to being human and alive
We fall, we repent, we survive'
really hit me from the first time I heard it, and meaning wise, it's stuck with me most.
