Realised I'd got the title wrong
Realised I'm not the only one
Prepositions are overrated
Except when they aren't
I should rewrite this post in haiku form
Maybe Glenn Case can help

Balance Lost We all know explaining a joke kills it, but one can't take any chances in Nur Ein, so...the joke is meant to be the chicken and egg line. Which came first? Well, when Amazon delivers it I'll let you know. I know you don't go out to buy something by mail order but artistic license etc. ...

I dig the artwork for this one

my grievances with the opera industry

kinda interested to know what grievances with the opera industry exist. i guess we will find out.

Don't get stuck in an elevator with a group of baritones. They are. The. Worst.

Balance Lost It's not a day for major revelations I got too much to do Fax it in for your consideration But you already knew what I'll say You said it was a metaphor You never warned again You said it was a metaphor You said it was a metaphor Dawn came up fast behind the station I walked back along...

Balance Lost Stepping into an open sky From this point the path is undecided Should you choose to aim too high It's your party even if you're not invited The early echo is dying away The world doesn't wait and doesn't hear Do you sing to gain their praise An anchorite's life left to pioneer My stre...

the hissy chorus cymbals and the distortion on the guitar, this song already has a lot going in that frequency range. Slightly tiring on the ear. Thanks so much for the reviews! (that goes to all who have reviewed so far this spintunes too!) You're totally right about that frequency range being too...

Some of my own crap opinions. Mellfire Trifecta : The Green Onions groove is kinda cool and I like the wibbly effect on the guitars. The synths that come in just before the minute mark add a nice sense of atmosphere and progression to the song. Wish there was more of that. I always appreciate a left...

Thanks for the reviews, Mo! I have done hours of painstaking surgery to my guitars in an effort to reduce the squeakiness, and here are the results. Hope it does the trick. https://www.gocarpetburn.com/mp3/fawm23/powerplants.mp3 Re: the weird melody. Car version is definitely the right version :D bu...

Yes, awesome art, Glennny! Thanks for contributing that.

I 4th that. Very noice!

I'm same as Gizo.
Hard pass on the live event because of the country thang, but would love to record a set for streaming/youtube etc.

Be happy to talk chords in this style sometime, but check out the chart for Girl from Ipanema sometime, that’s pretty much The Godfather of this, even though we only used the typical m6 once, the other things really are just versions of that for most of the verses Cool, I'll have to check that out,...

Wow so that challenge was bunk after all. Jeez you guys we coulda done a god damn pop song You certainly could have done. The challenge made no restrictions regarding style. But if you'd done a pop song then we probably would have been deprived of your cuica action! Time for some reviews, but I wou...

If one time we used steel string acoustic with constant fast chord strumming with a pick, could we use a classical guitar where I'm playing slowly w/o a pick and doing chords with fingers 2-4 and a bassline with my thumb? To my ear, those two things sound completely different, and the new song woul...

Different instruments like "my other guitar", or different instruments like "ukulele"? My interpretation of this challenge when we discussed it was that your other guitars were off limits if you had already used one of them. The intention is to try and get arrangements that are ...

It’s shitty to see good bands with good songs get eliminated, and jeez it must be hard to be a judge. It is! So hard. Glad you get our deep and intense burden (this year in particular; judging all the other years is probably a piece of piss). We've reached the stage in the competition where everybo...

Some reviews. Listed in order of ranking. Which means I was judge 4 (i.e. 4th from the left in the scoring table). Very tough round to judge. There's not a lot between these songs and it could have been a very different order given another day of listening. The Lowest Bitter : Really digging the gli...

It seems Caravan Ray has kidnapped Glennny and submitted his own song

When someone acts surprised that their “brutal” honesty provoked an angry response I wonder if they’re just trying to be a bully for some reason. I don't feel that BYD were angry necessarily (I may be wrong). I don't believe my comments expressed surprise at their response. I don't see how one poor...

That may be so, but I reserve the right to label something as garbage when I judge something to be garbage.

If you don't want honesty in my reviews then you can request to be omitted from them.

All due respect, but what a load of crap. I apologise for not going into more detail about what I didn't like about your song, but I didn't want to labour the point too much. I think that the idea that emotion and sensibility are detached from songwriting is nonsense. It is entirely valid to critic...

Interesting, thanks. Can't hear any guest harmonies though so I'm afraid I'm going to have to rank you last.

Well, it's your song. I am the (uninvited) guest.
