  • Article new enough at time of nomination, good length, no copyvio, interesting topic, exhaustively referenced. I think the hooks are a bit too wordy and not particularly punchy. The "huh" moment from the hook comes from the fact that the game was written for a fictional radio station, and maybe that should be the meat of the hook. What about "... that "Old Love / New Love" was written by Twin Shadow for a fictional radio station?" To me, at least, that's punchy and intriguing. A Traintalk 09:45, 15 October 2017 (UTC)
My first DYK review so a second opinion may be a good idea.A Traintalk 09:45, 15 October 2017 (UTC)
Hi @A Train:, thanks for the review. I have no problem with your hook suggestion (officially ALT2 below). © Tbhotch (en-2.5). 22:20, 15 October 2017 (UTC)
