| Use in article ( WP:NFCC#7) | Lost Cause (Billie Eilish song) |
| Purpose of use in article ( WP:NFCC#8) | The sample illustrates the song's characteristics to help readers understand its genre and genre influences. Specifically, it shows the song's use of drums, bassline, and a crooning vocal style, which are a subject of critical commentary in multiple sources cited in the article. Other cited sources state that "Lost Cause" is a downtempo, R&B song that takes influences from trip-hop, funk, and 1950s jazz music; the sample helps readers to identify those genres given the illustrated elements. |
| Not replaceable with free media because ( WP:NFCC#1) |
The audio from which the sample is taken is copyrighted and not released under a free license, so creation of a free alternative that stays true to the original work is not possible. |
| Not replaceable with textual coverage because ( WP:NFCC#1) |
Text alone cannot fully capture how the song's genre, instruments, and vocals sound. |
| Minimal use ( WP:NFCC#3) | The duration of the sample is only 10% of that of that original song, and has been compressed to a quality low enough to avoid piracy. |
| Respect for commercial opportunities ( WP:NFCC#2) |
The use of a brief sample in the article will not impact the commercial viability of the song or album in a negative way. |
