thanks for the responses. maybe i just need some gin/ginger/cranberries. i don't log on all that often, but it seems whenever i do there's a title i can't work with. i got all excited a few days ago when i saw "we were not meant to be" but then realized the fight was long gone , so i logge...

a lot of the time i don't participate in songfight because the title is too light and silly, and i feel like i have to write a joke song in order to do anything at all for the fight. i hate writing joke songs because it feels like a major waste of time and effort. i don't want to be a comedian, i wa...

i'm thinking about making the seattle one. if it's low volume, though, it's not worth bringing the kit. maybe i'll have myself and another acoustic guitar and some bongos and shakers. mmm.

i'll try and make it happen. your money wasted in seattle!!!

oh man.

gert, please be in this fight. i love you guys so much.

livin' life large, guilty as chaaarged
i'm a mothafuckin' baaad caat

i was really hoping the whole lopsided vote thing wouldn't happen this time because i don't get the chance to fight that often and i worked pretty hard on this entry . Really, because my songs just magically appear on Song fight each week. i wasn't comparing myself to anyone else there. if anything...

i was really hoping the whole lopsided vote thing wouldn't happen this time because i don't get the chance to fight that often and i worked pretty hard on this entry. you guys are right about the front page vote not being so important, though. the advice in the reviews is what seems to really matter...

so i give songfight another try only to be brutally reminded what it's really about.

earhr. there's nothing good in life.

don't expect me back anytime soon.

edit: fwiw, i appreciate the reviews. thanks to all the reviewers.

To everyone who's reviewed thus far, thank you. To those who plan on reviewing in the future, thank you. I'll get my review in when I get a minute, which might not be for a few days

Edit: can I be a good guitarist too?

GET A LIFE Your Money Wasted One day I met a girl and took her out for lunch While we were there I saw a friend from out of town I put her on hold so I could go say hi And talk about wireless security Then I looked around And saw she was nowhere to be found That's when I realized I'm last in line to...

This is the first time I've had to program drums for something like this. On my other three SF entries I used real drums, but now that I can't record real drums because of a broken FirePod, I had to download a bunch of samples from freesound and arrange it all in Cubase. So yeah, it's a little scary...

It really raises the bar when you have to live up to the expectations of 6 singers, 6 writers, 6 producers, 6 engineers, 6 bass players, 6 guitar players, 6 keyboard fiddlers, 6 drummers that's just like me. i almost feel like i should ask to be a part of it all, but i wouldn't want to disturb the ...

tonetripper, you have an excellent voice. you and smalltown sounded excellently in that last song. i loved it.

long live gert!

i completely and most undeniably dig Gert's entry. a well-deserved win. 11/10

well, we all happened to be over at my place, and we just got it done. we were all pretty happy with it, and i probably would have forgotten to submit it later on or something, so i just went ahead and sent it over.

i just submitted a your money wasted song for "covered in bugs". will couldn't stop dancing to it ^_^

edit: will is one of our guitarists, btw.

same here, except weed.

"it never happened" is one of the most dangerous phrases in the food industry!

2. don't be miffed when people try to defend their music.

bandwidth isn't a problem if you make bittorrent the norm.

@eclectic sp00ns, Congrats on the win. Steve Wish You Were Here IS the best song ever written, and the unimaginative nature of the chords actually makes the song better by focusing attention on the lyrics. I take the idea a bit further by making everything unimaginative in order to focus attention ...

also, congratulations on the win @eclectic spoons. it's well-deserved. god i love that song. it's so 1984! i can see big brother on the telescreen reciting that song to an auditorium of people! i was one of the two who voted for ausgequetschte zitrone, though. it's too bad they didn't get more votes...

Huh? How is it not original? the verse contains the chord progression D F#m G A and the chorus is G A D, if i'm interpreting correctly. the structure is verse-chorus-verse-chorus... Okay, you're just wack. Folsom Prison Blues is C F G, verse/chorus, and it's one of the best songs ever written. does...

c hack: ... i'm going to have to take out some points on this song for lack of originality. Huh? How is it not original? the verse contains the chord progression D F#m G A and the chorus is G A D, if i'm interpreting correctly. the structure is verse-chorus-verse-chorus. the style is tried. the lyr...
