For the moment, I only fixed commas, and reduced clutter. This is the same hook/fact four times, no need for the same long urls four times. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 14:54, 25 May 2021 (UTC)Reply
AfC submission accepted on the nomination date. Long enough, no copyvio or WP:BLPSOURCES concerns. Hook is interesting (I think I saw Blur three times in the 1990s, preferred Supergrass myself) and properly sourced. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 15:51, 4 June 2021 (UTC)
