Just Hollingdale (Cambridge) wherever possible. There are exceptions -- but there're merely tolerable/adequate compared to Kaufmann and earlier Mencken/Ludovici et. al. ones.

It's such an ugly language. In bot its written and spoken form. English is bad enough already thank you.

actually english is beautiful and unusually expressive due to its triple-inheritence causing multiple precise registers and phrasal verbs allowing for basically any new verb to be instantly understood

If you had asked me for an example of Mandarin being pretty I'd have suggested this.

Unrelated somewhat but I do find it funny that since they ditch the accents to keep up with the melody they probably understand the lyrics just as much as we do

Tone has less functional load in Mandarin, mch lk hw y cn ndrstnd Nglsh wrttn wtht vwls wtht t mch dffclt. (Chinese Braille also mostly doesn't record them unless necessary in context.) In Cantonese, which has more distinct tones and distinguishes them more rigorously, tones do have to match the melody, and if they don't the lyrics often end up sounding like something else- there's a Christian song that runs "He's able, He's able, I know He's able" (in Cantonese, zyu2 nang4gau3, zyu2 nang4gau3, ngo5 zi1 nang4gau3) but because of the mismatch of tones to melody it comes out sounding more like "He's fucking stupid, He's fucking stupid, goose hemmorhoids, He's fucking stupid" (zyu2 nan2gau1, zyu2 nan2gau1, ngo4 zi6 taa1 nan2gau1).

Hollingdale is always the man for Nietzsche. He didn't do everything, so sometimes you have to look for the least bad alternative, but fortunately that's not a problem with HATH.

Just try to get a decent cover. I've seen some pretty ghastly stuff out there. Egon Schiele paintings and other suchlike degeneracy. Anything further from the spirit of FN it would be hard to imagine.
