Thanks for a really interesting experience! I have certainly enjoyed rising to these challenges, and I was delighted to make it through even one round, let alone two. Special thanks to Cybronica for the rankings and thoughtful critiques you have given me, but also to all the judges who took the time...

There were also entries with BPM 121 and 151. Y'all are a bunch of nerds.

Mine was 88bpm and I didn’t even think to mention that in my song bio #nerdandproud

I am absolutely blown away by this, thank you so much for all the reviews, and the time and effort put in to write them. Cybronica - The cello sound is actually an octave violin - and yes it’s me playing it. 🙂 Thank you for the vocal advice, I really value your expert guidance. Dave - apologies for ...

Have a great listening party everyone! It will be the middle of the night for me. Sad not to be able to join in the banter, but look forward to catching up with it all tomorrow! Can’t wait to hear what everyone’s done - such a great challenge this one!

I'm most impressed by EmKayDeeBee's managing to get both a #1 and a #33 rating in the same contest.

Ha ha, it’s certainly quite something huh?!
I recognise what you say about supporting the people you know, but am grateful for feeling welcome too - it’s hard to be new in any social gathering.

Thanks so much to the judges for the time taken in their reviews and ranking - no small job with so many entries! Very grateful for the positive comments - they lift me more than you can know - and I also recognise areas that needs focus to improve. It’s a steep learning curve for sure!

I liked being able to just up and go to another country when, you know, we could go to other countries.

Ah, the good ol’ days!

I'm actually Australian but have lived here since 2017. I assumed somewhere in Ireland because you play harp and pulled out "craic".

Ah - well I’m celtic for sure! Grew up in Wales! Quite a change from Aus to Ireland?!

Where in Ireland are you then? I'm in Cork.

Alas, mainland England (though West Coast at least, so the best side!)... Cumbria

Great load of tunes! Have loved listening on repeat and seeing the live chat unfold. Sorry not to be able to be there live for the banter, looked like some great craic! (1am start time for me and I’m useless on no sleep )

Can’t wait to hear them! At first I really wasn’t sure about the prompt, (does anyone like describing themselves directly?) but then I found my angle. Going to be fascinating to listen to them all and hear where others went with it (will be later Tuesday for me, as the listening party is the middle ...
