Hey, Mike and Ben, I listened to the podcast a couple of days ago. I was disappointed that it was late, but holy cow was that worth the wait! I loved your commentary, and it surprised and delighted me to hear you gush about my song so much! I'm grateful and humbled. Also, I really loved Mike razzing Ben about their shadow entry. I was laughing out loud at that.grumpymike wrote: ↑Wed Jun 24, 2020 10:06 pmLate! The New Ugly is now The Old Ugly! Some priorities took precedence.
I humbly submit to you how dumb we sound.

In your discussion of my song in the previous round, Mike said something that really got me. I'll have to paraphrase, but you said something like "When Jon Eric sings, even if he's singing about something like checking his Facebook account, you know he's going to sing it like he REALLY means it." That compliment really moved me, as did the fact that you remembered that song from like seven years ago where I had a verse about checking my Facebook account. I've been hanging on to that (and trying to live up to it!), but keep forgetting to mention it. So thank you!
Yes, I love Adam's videos about his process! I've been tempted to emulate them, but way too much of my creative process happens when I'm in my underwear. This was an interesting one. I loved watching that mischevious look on Adam's face when he thought up the "And jam!" line. As though he were thinking "No, I can't use that. OR CAN I?"
The app he composes his lyrics in is a web-based app with a built-in rhyming dictionary called Storm. I think another Song Fight person programmed it. Have at it! https://muse.dillfrog.com/storm/editor
