... that fans of the band Viola Beach started a social media campaign to get the band's single "Swings & Waterslides" to the top of the UK Singles Chart after the band were killed in an accident in Södertälje, Sweden?
ALT1:... that Kris Leonard, vocalist of the band Viola Beach, commented that the lyrical content of their songs was inspired by their "very grey and industrial" hometown, Warrington, Cheshire?
ALT2:... that the songs by Viola Beach were described as "infectious anthems" with "hints of slacker pop" by a staff of BBC Introducing?
Hmmm, they are all a little bit on the mediocre side. But if any of them then the first one due to it mentioning the lethal incident and so the reason of their significance right now. But I would change it so that it ends, "after the entire band were killed in a road accident in Sweden?" Kookiethebird (talk) 04:34, 16 February 2016 (UTC)
I also don't like the word lethal in ALT0- fatal would be better instead? I also think ALT0 is best. Joseph2302 (talk) 14:06, 16 February 2016 (UTC)
Overall: I prefer ALT1 and ALT2 because social media campaign to make musicians popular after their passing is not uncommon, usually with popular artists but since they were more up and coming who never were able to live to see their stardom, I think it's best to leave it this selection with others. Other than that, considering this has not appeared to have been reviewed, this link reports a 57.1% copyvio but considering it's not from a reliable source, I'll give it a pass.
