Source-derived summary

"Lies to Me" is the second single by Canadian rock group 54-40 from the band's seventh studio album, Trusted by Millions.

Editorial summary

“Lies to Me” enters the record as 1996 single by 54-40. Crown Archives preserves that source wording while asking what Lies, single and 54-40 can confirm, complicate or overturn.

Editorial reviewA concise reference frame for defining the subject, testing terminology and identifying the institution closest to the evidence. The current 21-word lead offers orientation but no explicit four-digit date, so chronology should not be assumed. The linked authority record independently contributes the date 1996. Its strongest next move is a source search built around Lies, single and 54-40.
Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

“Lies to Me” is worth following because a concise public description often conceals a longer documentary argument. Here, Lies, single and 54-40 provides the most credible route into that argument.

Evidence profile

The citation trail is more important than the brevity of the summary: it shows where individual claims can be examined in context. The source revision retrieved here is dated May 20, 2024. The linked authority identifier is Q6544296. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank.

Critical limits

The absence of detail may reflect summary conventions rather than a lack of surviving documentation. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
