but seriously, folks, from somebody who's been hanging out here for a while, don't bother suggesting voting changes because the fightmasters like it this way

point well taken. i'll keep my trap shut

Don't try and suggest some sort of unifying method of reviewing. Some people value a bad song with a funny line over a boring song by people who can record well. i wasn't suggesting that everyone adopt a method. i just noticed in the 'i like to pretend' board there was a big discussion over product...

jim fallope-dont be so hard on yourself but i enjoy being hard on myself. self-deprecation is an art. modesty is a virtue. revel in your weakness and you'll never be surprised by the criticism you receive. here's a question for everyone. how much do you allow humor to influence your vote? a poorly ...

This is that strange song on the album that comes between tracks 9 and 10, just to make the listener say, "Oh, that's way different". I like it. or "oh, that's not exactly normal." and you don't have to like my song just because i liked your's. i don't even like my song. :wink:

Wages This has a Jonathon Richman feel to it. I like the simplicity of the structure and playing, though the lead could be "cleaner". A misplaced note here and there is endearing. All through the song, they're distracting. Looking forward to more! 6/10 dude, you totally beat me to the pun...

Jim Fallope Silly and short (could be shorter, actually). I suppose it would be fun, but it's not my favorite entry. Sounds like you had fun playing it, though. 2/10 i actually didn't have any fun playing it. it was one of those sessions (can we amateurs even call them 'sessions'?) where i recorded...

i believe that my song is working now. sorry for the delay. you will be disappointed. thank you fightmaster for fixing it. 8)

Jim Fallope I really dig the production, the sped-up vocals , the funny lyrics and pretty much every thing. the vocals weren't sped up, that's my normal voice. but i do appreciate the compliment. i really did adjust my vocal pitch for not exactly normal , but i'm guessing you won't like that song a...

not exactly normal* i pop two pills 'cause i'm not quite normal one for ADD one for anxiety i pop two pills 'cause they balance hormones when i don't take them i'm not good company bah bah bah two pills for society bah bah bah i'm in love with modern psychiatry bah bah bah lexapro, you've set me fre...

i just finished 'not exactly normal' and the vocals are so indecipheralble that it may as well be an intsrumental. but i like my songs shitty.

I've only listened to one Bob Dylan album in my life (Blood on the Tracks), and that only a few times. I suppose this could be seen as an insult to the man, but I don't see how you could have inferred that from the song. Also, to "coin" a phrase generally means to create it. I figured out...

jim fallope and his fallopian dudes: this is wonderful. i was giggling from start to finish. as much as i like a good funny song, though, i can't really take it seriously, and being able to do that is what really gets me into a song. extremely funny though. but i'm just so serious about not being t...

when i saw that the tune was 6:08, i thought that it might be too long, but it held my attention throughout. The Gert tune is only 3:53, not 6:08. oops, sorry. i guess that's why it held my attention. i don't know why i thought it was 6:08. my brain mustn't have been working, which is often. take i...

hello all: i'm new to the site and have never posted any reviews before. you see, i have this dilemma. if i post reviews i worry about being presumptous and arrogant, even more so if you consider how much my songs suck. then again i feel that reviews are the dues one must pay in order to be consider...

i like to pretend i have a toyota a nineteen-eighty five toyota corolla i'd drive down the street in it and drive it right back again in my toyota toyota corolla. i'd pick up my girlfriend drop of her off at work, turn around, and then i'd wax my toyota toyota corolla i'll be waxing on sunday my shi...

i'm not the smartest person my thoughts they tend to move in slow motion science, math, and history philosophy, it's all greek to me i thought that pickles were a fruit that grew deep inside the ocean incubated by the sponges covering the floor of the sea and expounding to my friends upon this lates...
