Re: A parade, or a marathon?! (A Grand Parade reviews)
Welp, life got too busy for me to finish all my reviews. I figured it’s better to post the ones I have. Sorry to everyone I missed. Abjure! : Like the harmonies. Nice chord changes in the last half of the chorus. Abominominous : Digging the guitar work. Great rhythm in the vocal delivery, which work...

Re: A parade, or a marathon?! (A Grand Parade reviews)
Special award to Heine for posting the first full set of reviews!
No small feat! I’m slowly working through it, but I’ve only made it to the letter “C” so far.

Re: Ready and willing (To Die On This Hill reviews)
Berkeley Social Scene - I really dig the riff! And also the 60s vibe in the verses. Ooooh, there it is – the tasteful guitar solo to bring it home. Overall, great work. Would listen again. VOTE Brown Word and the Big Whine - There is more dissonance happening here than I am normally a fan of, but t...

I can't believe it has been 5 days since the songs have been posted, and there are no reviews yet! Is everyone too sleepy from eating turkey on Thursday? James Moate J: The beat sounds a little too repetitive to me, I would try switching it up a little in the chorus. Changeups like the gang vocals a...

Re: It's Not Over Until the Fat Lady (It's Not Over) Reviews
Welcome back, Jeff Travis Henderson! Jeff started songfighting in 2006 (nearly 10 years!), and up to this fight his most recent entry was in 2008. 12 good entries in that time, with no winners. I haven't listened to all the entries in those fights, but at least ONE of those winners robbed Mr. Hende...

Re: It's Not Over Until the Fat Lady (It's Not Over) Reviews
Berkeley Social Scene Overall, a song that is written and performed well. There are times here where I don't feel like the sing-talking vocal delivery is working for me. For example, "out of this plight" comes out sounding a little flat. Conversely, the distorted singing of "it's not...

Seriously? This is getting freaky. You remember the "Watching the Riot" song I wrote back when Tienanmen Square happened? Well, I wrote this one when John Lennon died. Attached! I recorded it on a Fostex X15 multitrack cassette deck, which should bring a misty tear from the old-timers. Un...

Re: Unpack your reviews (suitcase)
Anastasia Elizabeth – Good singing. Chorus is catchy! Nice harmonies. The songwriting benefits from being catchy enough to be a good pop song without falling into the trap of being a run-of-the-mill three chord pop song. I could hear this song having a Regina-Spektor-style full production recording...

Re: Maid to be plaid? (Made to Be Played Reviews)
Uh-oh. So this one time, our band (Me, Big Crouton, and Andrew Reist) spent an enormous chunk of the weekend recording this song so it could be done by the deadline. We stayed up all night Sunday night to finish it on time. But in our tiredness we each assumed somebody else was sending in the song. ...

Re: December 2, 2008
I'm the only one that plays music, but one time my family and I started a 60's family folk band called the "Henderson Family Singers." We wrote 4 songs:
We're Gonna Have a Groovy Time
Rock and Roll is Such a Groovy Thing
Riding a Groovy Rainbow
Wut a Gangsta Gots to Do

I think Andrew's friend Maggie might also be in this fight. Our network of friends is slowly taking over this place. Let's get all inside joke-y and exclusive.

Done and done. Everything turned out pretty good as far as I can tell. I think I've done about the best I can do with this tune. I don't want to spoil the surprise, but I can say with reasonable certainty that this is the most awesome Metal/Barbershop Quartet song you'll ever hear. I can't tell you...

I was playing around with open G tuning yesterday for fun, and this caused me to write a song and record it.
Take that!
