Sunday Colors: Did anyone catch that your song is about a failed suicide attempt, and the aftermath of living with the visible gunshot wound to the head/ [face?]? I think they missed it. I didn't mind that most people missed it, but I was excited to read your post all the same! I imagined my song a...

The New Ugly for this round is live Special thanks to Scott (Lucky Spoon) for subbing in for Ben. These are the approximate times. I apologize for being so LOW ENERGY. As you can imagine, I'm tired and grumpy and don't have much but praise at this point. :) Scott had plenty of interesting things to...

I'm traveling for work this week and next, so I wont be able to submit the last two weeks of the competition On the bright side, I have some downtime in the airport, so here are some early music reviews! General comments... -Many of these songs went on for too long without really changing sonically....

It's probably for the best that I'm last in line - the mixing is not done properly, and my song is very quiet. My apologies in advance.

Where The Streets Have No Name by the Sunday Colors The money’s pretty good, I can’t complain I stay inside most everyday I write letters so no one will see my face The nurses come by but they don’t meet my gaze No-one ever does Have a rare burst of clarity so I walk to the park Most days I don’t s...

Just about the nicest thing anyone has written about my music. Truly honored to have made you cry, and perhaps even moreso that you liked it before you understood the lyrics. You two always have really positive things to say, I appreciate it. The line about the given name is really important to me....

Agony Sauce - Would dance to in a club. The "I do this to remember" is really catchy, and in general the chorus is so good. I'm not a huge fan of that "sing in line with the drum beat" style, but it's a good song Berkeley Social Scene - I really love that "yuddayuddayudda&qu...

The Sunday Colors - The new mic sounds great! Big improvement in sound quality, great job Christopher! As usual, lyrics and performance are fabulous. I especially like “You flashed your half-moon smile when I stepped off the plane”. And then the chorus hits, and the sample. Ha! This cracked me up. ...

No Memory by the Sunday Colors We have positive confirmation of a safe landing... I have never been so far away from home The path forward has never been less clear My mind is a winding sequence of computer code The end is far away yet it’s slowly drawing near I want to remember the people that I l...

Color Me Sunday by the Sunday Colors Featuring the Commodores Lionel - If you're listening to this, I am so sorry Last night I had a dream that I was in your arms and things were okay I’d finally found the strength to fly those 4,000 miles one-way You flashed your half-moon smile when I stepped off...

Sunday Colors- Your voice is wonderful. There’s something very Dylan about this song. Great words, frantic strumming. Reminds me of Richie Havens singing a Dylan song. I’m wishing for more instrumentation. One lyrical thing that irks me (I’m sorry, I’m the son of an English teacher) Now you think t...

I once watched a cooking show where during the dessert portion one of the judges took a taste-test and then said, "oh, if I were a fan of chocolate I'd love this." To which I thought; if you're not a fan of chocolate, what are you doing judging desserts?? This is to say that I'd held off o...

I just took a first pass at this, and it's hilarious how bad I am at sound mixing. This will be a great round for me

I invested in my first ever microphone, which came in the mail today. Look out, world!

This song is really hard. None of the Mandibles like to be mean, and we’re really bad at it... "Someone or something", the challenge says. So you can write a diss track about broccoli or whatever, unless you don't want to be mean to broccoli. I'll weigh in here and say that if someone wri...

the Sunday Colors Pump the Brakes I drove due south to Fort Lauderdale on a weekend morning You’d fallen and broken your ribs and were in the hospital I’d come to feed your cat and make sure you were alright I couldn’t brace myself for what I knew I’d find Plastic bottles stacked to the ceiling like...

Shock Value the Sunday Colors You don't have anything nice to say to me But that hasn't slowed you down from trying Just once I wish you'd communicate sparingly Though armed with best intentions, you have always evil underlying Is it too much to ask for? Too much to ask for? To let the feeling stay ...

Message Received a.k.a. Lies by the Sunday Colors He said I spell it with a K, I don’t see why you can’t remember K-A-S-E-Y, it’s not so hard, and you didn’t have a problem back when you thought I was a tomboy I am only who I’ve always been And I know that’s not the story you tell yourself when you’...
