Actually, the chorus is terrific, the verse kind of so-so. The chorus builds up such great energy, and all the air comes out of it during the verses.
There is a reason for that:

If I had to guess, I'd say infinity point buck is the most awesome male deer. Because a 10 point buck is awesome. :ugeek:

The "points" of a buck, or male deer, is the number of actual pointy parts on the horns. So a "12-point buck" is a big frickin' deer indeed. So an Infinity Poit Buck is hilariously big.
This is a 10-point buck.

Unreal. I am shocked by the win, especially after receiving only luke warm reviews. I know it's not friend flooding 'cause I don't have any! I feel there are better songs in the fight but am greatly honored and appreciative. Thanks! :D

Caravan Ray - I can't believe you used the phrase, "me love long time" in the song. I enjoyed this so much that I just might.

Billy And The Psychotics - Wait a second...I think Billy accidentally sent his lyrics to Caravan Ray this round. Not a huge fan of these lyrics, and I wasn't blown away with the vocals from Denise this time. The music was pretty rockin', but I'd rather listen to a karaoke version.

Sockpuppet - Musically it was interesting, but lyrically it was depressing & failed to tell a compelling story. The vocals didn't really help matters.

King Arthur - Too many vocal tracks, and it feels like it's missing something else. Enjoyed the lyrics.

Paco del Stinko - You've been better...before. It's not bad at all, but for me, nothing really stood out.

Infinity Point Buck - Well...it's a good thing there's a lyric forum. Otherwise nobody would ever know what you wrote. That mix is just horrible. Personally I enjoy rap, but it's all about the lyrics with me. ESPECIALLY with rap. And yours just didn't cut it.

Micah Sommer - It's like a song physically materialized in front of you, then you picked it up, and threw it into a brick wall. Everything feels like it's just randomly splattered throughout the track, with some awful vocals layered on top.

No, I didn't "accidentally" send him my lyrics, he haxzored my porn machine and stole them. Image


.....we're still in litigation. Image


And I disrespectfully disagree with you. Dee's vox are hot, son! But diggin' your dedication to getting back to all the fights you haven't reviewed. Might be a new trend. Just like the sudden influx of movies with dead presidents killing vampires and werewolves. Eff yeah!

I usually like her vocals, but they just didn't do anything for me this time around.

Probably the way I mixed them. She sends me good tracks, but sometime I get crazy with the studio cheese whiz. :P

I could have done this one a little tighter. You made me sound uh... better than beef ore I sent you my vocals, Chris #seewhatididthere? ;) The lyrics were cerebral and personal and a bit cryptic so we weren't going to get any Spin points for that... ;)

whatevermonkey to a karaoke version. Except that perhaps I might sing in tune to another track of myself at a bar so who knows :)

Songs need to tell stories because we are still in the world of minstrels singing ballads being the source of all knowledge retention.
