Re: ST 22 Round 1 Reviews

Spintown & Company - Go To Sleep! [SHADOW] What the heck, this is by far one of the best songs in the round, and if it were received on time, I would have probably put it in my top 3! Has that old school alternative/power pop vibe and is executed super well! Upon my first listen I was just kind...

Re: They dropped the first bomb (This Isn't Over Yet reviews)

FYI - In the UK (and certainly in the London area where I'm from), "the deck" is a colloquial expression for the floor or the ground; usually in the context of someone being knocked (or having fallen) over, often in a fight situation - i.e. "he knocked him on the deck" Deck is u...

Re: They dropped the first bomb (This Isn't Over Yet reviews)

Spintown & Company: I don’t expect people to get the lyrics to this one. For the most part I only write lyrics when I want to do a Minecraft music video, and that’s what this is about. More specifically it’s about a mini game called “Bed Wars” played on the Hypixel Network. In short it’s a PvP ...

Re: Where do you think you're going? (This Isn't Over Yet prefight)

Well I finished lyrics awhile ago, and have a collaborator working on recording it now. Hopefully yall will get to rip me to shreds if we make the deadline. I've been waiting for a title that sparked an idea I could use for YouTube, and this one did. I will say that I'm not really a fan of deadlines...

Re: Songwriting competition judging mechanisms

I like the idea of allowing forum members (maybe long time members given a rank?) to vote on Nur Ein as long as the votes aren't public until the results are in. When doing SpinTunes the hardest thing for me was getting judges & guest judges willing to do reviews in the time they were given. I a...

Re: Nur Ein XIV Round Five "Where The Streets Have No Name"

Berkeley Social Scene ...so I guess the one thing I’d like is for the lyrics to be smoothed out a little more. For instance “terrible place”...”terrible face”... I'm not sure if I'm getting you here, but the use of these specific words in this way was intentional - it's a reference to Where the Wil...

Agony Sauce A song that actually hits home with me a little atm. You can’t tell a story backwards much clearer than this. Unfortunately, for the first time your cumulative challenges mission kinda affected the song for me a little. The sample you used threw me a bit because I couldn’t make out what...

I'm a little worried that the next time Niveous doesn't say "no U2 references" he'll get one in every song. lol
you think only one in each song?
Was being optimistic. Lucky for me though, I don't listen to U2. Won't get any of them. ;p

Re: Nur Ein XIV Round Four "No Memory"

After running SpinTunes for 7 years or so, and judging Nur Ein multiple times, there is one thing I KNOW about judging. People will take issue with reviews & results no matter what. It's 100% subjective & sometimes it's hard to justify where you put things in your ranking to yourself, justif...

The only part I didn’t really care for was the break. The less dominate sound just made me cringe. Really enjoyed the story &am...

Re: Nur Ein XIV Round Three "Color Me _____"

For example, your Grumpy Mike review is relatively lukewarm “I’ll have to see how much I enjoy this after repeated listens” Seems written as an initial impression. Maybe he’s the only judge person in the world who gave it a second chance. It was my first impression, and it grew on me as I did my ra...

Abominominous With your previous songs I struggled to follow the story because of the lyrics. This time I couldn’t understand 90% of your lyrics without reading along on the Song Fight website. The vocals are totally lost in this mix. I enjoyed this more just reading without the MP3. I actually thi...

Before I get to the individual reviews I just want to say that the talent level in this contest is amazing. So it pains me that so many of you either didn’t like the challenge or didn’t have the balls to really embrace it. I normally focus on the lyrics & this was a lyrical challenge. You can ma...
