Re: Don't tell me (What To Say And How To Say It prefight)
In with a slow-ass ballad on my old-ass grand piano.

Re: Nancy Pelosi For President! (Two Hits Reviews)
Berkeley Social Scene - The best part of this song is the bridge - the instrumentation is nice and full, and the melody is very satisfying. The chorus is also catchy - the “One two!” vocals stand out and are a lot of fun, and the final line (“Keep the motor running on the American dream”) extends t...

Re: I take (Two Hits prefight)
Also, I'd like to apologize to Geech for saying his "Whichever Whenever" entry didn't earn its 4:25 run time, and then turning around and submitting a "Two Hits" entry that is... 4:25 long.

LATE AGAIN (to the tune of Mandibles' "Right Again")
Late again
Sent in my entry but it's late again
Late again
Hasn't left me feeling great again
If I turned it in on time
We'd be doing mighty fine
Instead I'm late again
Fightmaster gets irate again

Re: Don't forget to write some notes. You know... (Whichever Whenever Reviews)
Berkeley Social Scene - I’m so glad you unearthed this long-forgotten outtake from “Free to Be You and Me”! I don’t think many people were using the term “haters” in the 1970s, but other than that the lyrics are spot-on. The fun that everyone is having comes through very clearly, although rhythmica...

Re: Crazy Ex-Girlfriend
Maybe I'm jaded having written a lot of songs for Song Fight/Nur Ein/FAWM over the years, but the idea that the whole thing was leading up to her writing and performing an original song left me thinking "So what?" Music is such an important part of Rebecca's inner life, and yet she had ne...

Re: Crazy Ex-Girlfriend
The series finale of Crazy Ex-Girlfriend aired last weekend, and I thought it was a great end to a great show. I thought the first half of this fourth and last season was a little weak (similar to Lunkhead's criticism of the third season, it felt like a lot of characters were just spinning their whe...

Only the real thing will do!
...Seriously though, come up to Wisconsin, knock on any random stranger's door and ask if you can have their uncle's accordion they have sitting in their attic.

Re: No escape from the reality of (Is This Real Life Reviews)
My friends, this fight is loaded with goodness - I’ve had so much fun listening, so many great songs. Here are my reviews! Berkeley Social Scene - I guess I’m the only one here for whom the Rhodes doesn’t really do anything. Once the other instruments come in, the sound is quite pleasant and there’s...

Re: Song Fight! Live 2019 Location
Well, I have never met the other Madison songfighters as far as I know, but our city is awesome, it's in the middle, and I'm sure I can help rustle something up as far as a place to play and some equipment if you want to do it here, particularly if we have the option of crowdfunding a venue. I know...

Re: A support group for (The Dream Crusher Reviews)
Congratulations to Third Cat. Sorry I didn't manage to submit reviews for this one. Since my entry raised a lot of conversation on the podcast about dry vocals... I had to record my vocals on a very cheap dynamic microphone because my audio interface wasn't delivering phantom power properly. So ther...

Made it in, one hour late again. For those who complained about the length of my "The Dream Crusher" entry, this one clocks in at 1:43.
