Here are some more reviews for y'all.
1. Boop Boop – Last week, I regretted putting you too low on my list. I won’t make that mistake again this week. This is fantastic.
2. Johnny Cashpoint – That’s the way you do it people. One minute, nineteen seconds of clever pop. Could it use a better mix? Yes, but the lyrics are smart, the challenge is well-met and it has character.
3. Therman – Reist, you know I’m not always enthusiastic about your stuff, but this is very good. The chorus is one of your better uses of falsetto (imo) and has a very cool chord progression. I also like the instrumental bridge. Good ending and a well-met challenge.
4. Minty Handy – I want to rewrite the part of your verse melody—it’s almost right.
This song starts with such a beautiful instrumental hook; I really thought it was going to be awesome. But it becomes a bit too repetitive because the chorus and verse chord progressions are so similar. Still pretty good especially on second listen.5. Chris Cogott – This is very pretty. Sappy, but very pretty. Excellent vocals and a great mix. I wanted a key change for the last chorus, but it’s okay.
6. Milo Dunderville – I have a genre bias against island music and especially hate the words “tiki bar.” That being said, this is well-done and deserves praise. Nice guitar solo, nice idea for the whispering. Very catchy chorus. Good job, now don’t do it again.
7. DJ Ranger Den – I really like Ani DiFranco, but there are times when I find her unlistenable and it’s usually when she sounds like this. But your performance is very good and you sound convincing, like you know what you’re doing. Like you practiced. Like you know your own song, which is more than I can say for a lot of what I just listened to. So good job!
8. Who Fly – Interesting lyrics, but I can’t really appreciate the singing. Also, I’m not hearing the whispering. Better on second listen. I really like the electric piano or whatever that is. This really grew on me actually—even got used to the singing.
9. Sid Denison – I like the counterpoint between the chorus and the verses. Very clever, but not very well-executed vocally. The subject matter couldn’t interest me less—I prefer lyrics that don’t require links to understand them. I also like the jungle beat. Maybe not as good as that Saints song after all, but not bad either! Oh, the whispering—good enough for me especially when viewed as a prayer.
10. Jon Eric – Also nice playing, but the vocal turns me off. At least, the first few lines anyway. It gets much better after that. Big mistake bringing in that drum beat, imo. The song become very disjointed at that point and seems to want to pull apart. Maybe it would work better if there were some other instruments? I don’t know. Too long for me; after four minutes, I wanted it to be over. Feeling epic? Again, really nice piano.
11. Berkeley Social Scene – Everything is always so neat and orderly in your songs. I really want to hear some rough edges sometime. I mean, I’m listening to the words, but I don’t believe for a second that the singer is under any sort of duress about feeling stranded any more than I thought being a few minutes late for work was a reason to panic last week. This song reminds me of all the Sheryl Crow songs I hear at TJ Maxx. A little too polished for my tastes, I guess.
12. The Real Sign – This is like listening to a lost track by The Outfield or maybe Triumph. Neither of those things are good. I’ll give you points for the whispering, even though that bridge is super-cheesy.
13. Rabid Garfunkel – I really like the music, but I do not like the vox and the lyrics are sweet, but cliché. Couldn’t hear the whispered part at all on first listen. I keep thinking you’re going to blow me away with something cool and original, but I had you last last week and this one will likely be in the bottom third. Come on man!
14. Noah McLaughlin – Your vocals are so far in front during that first verse, it’s jarring. I know you’re a French prof or something, but what’s the point of singing the verses and chorus again in French? I’m looking for things to complain about, but I guess I really just don’t like the song.
15. Billy’s Little Trip – Vocals sound super out of tune, dude. Nice guitar lines, especially the one that contrasts with the bass. I don’t understand the words at all. How are you “stranded”?
16. Hoglen and Wages – Nice guitar playing and a nice chorus, but you need to work on your singing dude. It just kills the song. Kills it dead.
17. Emperor Gum – This is not a good performance and it’s not a good recording, but I think it’s probably a decent song. The whispering is super-annoying. I want to encourage you, but you’re going to have to do better than this to keep advancing. Also way way too long.
18. Naked Philosophy – Yeah, this is not funny or clever or well-performed.
19. Adam Adamant – I had you really high on the list last week but this seems tossed off. Too bad because I think you’re pretty good, but you probably won’t make it past this round.
20. Bill Gliniecki and Matt Brodeur – I’m not above lo-fi alt country or whatever this is, but this is just bad on so many levels.
21. Same Day Positive – This is not very good.
....well, for me, anyway.
