I definitely deserve to be eliminated this round because my vocals were inaudible unless you wore headphones, and my main recurring riff came from a band I wished to CHANNEL but not steal from outright. (Subconscious theft.) However. To say "we get it, torture is bad", you may as well say ...

The verses of my song (save for the last one) contain a high droning tremelo'd guitar which alternates from major third to minor third over the bass note.

Stop, you're killing me My lungs are burning, I cannot breathe I don't know who planted explosives I don' know who stores corrosives I'm just a bystander who was swept along And nobody here believes me All of my friends and family are gone Who will be left to bereave me Stop, you're killing me You t...

Safer version sent. Note to judges- It song not number one, it means you not man for real metal. It means you have tiniest little vagina balls.

My song has nothing to do with pissing, its about torture and enhanced interrogation... A possible side effect of those things perhaps but one not addressed in the song.

I smell cute points! I'm not worried tho, nothing a dangerously loud mash-up of My War/Raining Blood that has morphed into something spoken word and drone-ier can't handle.

The version I sent to Niveous is dangerously loud. Nobody listen to it until I mix a quieter version of it. Or, turn your headphones down all the way first.

I started out with a mashup of My War and Raining Blood about enhanced interrogation and torture, but its morphed into something drone-ier and more spoken word. It's a surefire winner!

Why did Ben get eliminated from last year's "metal" challenge?

I was also referencing this guy

This guy, plus Starship Troopers, plus Are You Lonesome Tonight = Nur Ein non-gold

Chorus: Your light no longer shines shines shines I might be leaving you behind this time My eyes are open, they're not blind blind blind Your light no longer shines Verse: Oh back when I first met you, you were sunshine in my arms A burning ball of brightness night and day And every day was heaven...

They Were Full Of Courage They were full of courage, when they boarded their ship On that cold sunny morning, they lined up to enlist They were bold, they were brazen, and they stood tall in line They were full of courage and their love for mankind They were young men, they were old men They were w...

Lyrics thread! Oh THERE it's been, all along, hidden in plain sight. If "egg on my face" had its own emoticon. It would look like this but more eggy

Where is this lyrics thread, of which you speak?

OK apparently the email sent, though I had no indication it had worked. I got a flash drive anyway just in case.

NUR EIN!!!

I have a PC I can connect with but I record on the Mac which the conventional sources are telling me is f'ed for the internet. So I'll try the flash drive route. You'll know when it's worked when my gay country love song ERASES YOUR MINDS!!!!!!!!!!

I have recorded a great song but I can't send it in because my computer (Powerbook G4) is out of date and won't let me do anything on the internet. Does anyone have a magic fix for my problem?

We got married in a cocktail bar. Hotter than a pepper sprout.

I call the gay June Carter/Johnny Cash angle!! CLAIM

I bet you would if all your friends were doing it.

More importantly- Is the music during spoken-word bridge in Nivs' example specifically different than the rest of the verses? If not that is a pretty serious contradiction in the criteria.

Spoken word bridge.

Elvis' "Are You Lonesome Tonight", The Ink Spots "I Don't Want to Set The World On Fire". I would post links but I'm not permitted to as the site thinks I'm trying to post spam.
