Reviews.
I'll be brief because it is not easy to type on this palm pilot. If I sound mean it is not because your song is bad; it is only because I hate you. So don't worry!

Also skipping a few that I don't have much to say about. This is because of a personal grudge and not that I just don't have anything useful to add.

Andre. I like the guitars and how they don't seem quite in sync, though I can understand why others might be bothered by them. Voice is less my thing.

Bob. This is awesome- the only killer is the drums: you've got to mix it up a little. That pattern is too simple to carry the whole song.

Chack. The serious tone of the vocals is a perfect fit and I will probably vote for this unless I forget to vote altogether.

P Denyer's next name. Backing loop is cool but voice is too loud and overloady on top.

Woodward. Good enough to win pretty easily, I suspect. It sounds a little bit forced, maybe, like this was a week where none of the titles were really your style. Not saying there's anything wrong with this song; just
that it probably should have a slightly different title. "Three days," I think. (also, thank you for the quick and very thoughtful response.)

You wouldn't be voting for a racist, you'd be voting for someone who thinks racism is funny.
Thinking that Racism is funny is sending the message to many people that it's a cool thing to do. In some ways, it's worse to think it's funny. It desensitizes people to the horrific truth(potential truth).

Meh. He could think Baby Eating is funny --Hell, he could be an active Baby Eater himself-- and I'd still vote for him if I thought he had the best song. I try my best to separate the person from their music.

EDIT: Plus, it's Denyer. He's not the Pope; he's just some random internet asshat. I'd be willing to bet money that nothing Denyer ever says in his entire life will have any effect whatsoever on current or future racial tension.

Maybe if more people were doing this to desensitise people you wouldn't have a problem with it. And what was in that one song probably wasn't the truth.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGHHHHHH!

It's twofvckingfortyfive in the morning and I have been up finishing reviews for this becuase I have been out of town only to have them wiped away when the board asked me to log in again when I submitted the reply. If you keep your reply window open for a long time when reviewing take note of this. I guess I will re-type tomorrow.
