Does this mean the "Problem of Perspective" songs are only going to be up a couple days?

Two years and two days since my first entry, so in it went. Plus there's been a noticeable lack of cheez-rock around: can't have that, now can we?

Oops, my bad. I saw Wednesday and thought 5/7 for some reason, not 5/14. Doh!

I wrote a song for this, but chances are I won't be able to get it recorded by Wednesday in the way I want. Oh well, I'll probably finish it later.

I am.. almost in. I have been having some serious trouble singing this one part, tho. It's unlikely that I'll get enough time alone to properly take another swing at "belting it out", so I may have to go with yesterday's take, which is.. iffy. I still like the song well enough as a whole, so unless I make no progress whatsoever, it should be in tonight sometime.

looking forward to criticism, constructive/otherwise, of the aforementioned vocals.

EDIT: OK, fuck it, it's not gonna get any better: I'm in.

i'm in. i lost my "full band" version of the song due to technical malfunctions, so i did a quick "live" version. i didn't have the time or effort to re-record all the other instruments and harmonies. :(

Dude! Sweet! I actually got a day off work, so I'm formally registering my robot. I even went easy on the vocoder.

There's not much in this world that can make me smile more than some vocoder.

I'm very excited about this fight! It's been way, way, way too long since I've submitted something to Song Fight. Looks like I'm back in the game!

More like I've been hiding. Last time I signed on was in March. Anyway, good to be back, and hopefully I'll start submitting regularly again. Someone has to teach these kids.

I'm out for the first time ever. There's just too much else going on in my life. Between the medical issues and the moving house...well, yeah.

Isn't that suffix taken by Romantic Cheapskate? I labeled mine _robotc.mp3 for that reason. I know it probably only matters for me because I was in that fight, but I thought I'd bring it up.
