One individual remarked, "Looks like I won't be tuning in to them anymore!!", while another added, "It's such a pity that I'll never enjoy their music again, especially since one of their tracks was my wedding song. Not that it matters much; nobody really pays attention to them these days. They faded out because they were turning into has-beens, and now they really are."
Looks like I won't be tuning in to them any longer!

It's really unfortunate that I won't be able to enjoy their music anymore. It's particularly bittersweet since one of their tracks was our wedding song. Not that it matters much, as it seems like nobody pays attention to them these days. They faded away when they started to lose their relevance, and now it feels like they've completely vanished.

I completely overlooked their existence. I only wish I could say the same about Trump.
