| Source ( WP:NFCC#4) | The audio is taken from YouTube. |
| Use in article ( WP:NFCC#7) | Guitar Songs |
| Purpose of use in article ( WP:NFCC#8) | The sample audibly illustrates the song's bridge, a subject of critical commentary in multiple reliable sources cited in the article, and intends to represent the overall sound of Guitar Songs. The EP is driven by acoustic guitars in such a way that puts emphasis on Eilish's soft vocals.
Specifically, the sample describes how the guitars in "The 30th" crescendo and Eilish's vocals begin to overlap in preparation for the bridge. Readers may not be familiar with how a music crescendo or overlapping vocals would sound, let alone what they mean, so an audio sample may be the best solution to filling any possible knowledge gaps. Many critics described Guitar Songs, particularly "The 30th", as emotionally impactful, so the sample intends to illustrate such emotions as well. |
| 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 properly explain the song's production, specifically its instruments and vocals, as well as the mood that these elements evoke. |
| 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. |
