You can listen to all the wonderful songs from this round by checking out the free album HERE.
Judges feel free to check my totals...I'm tired...mistakes are possible. However if my figures are correct the 8 people in bold have been eliminated from the contest. I really hope they decide to continue in the contest as shadows, and I thank EVERYONE for their hard work this round.

Well, great job everyone. (except me)
ReplyDeleteI just wanted to say a couple things. Judges, I'm sorry I pissed a couple of you off - it wasn't personal, so please don't take it that way. I saw the challenge, then wanted to write within the challenge, but be right out there on the edge. Basically I wanted to write something different but within the rules. Looks like I failed at that.
I've been writing a song a week since January - so I did actually write this song for the competition. I mean, I was writing a song that week anyway so why not write it about/for the competition. If you think I just stuck Stillwater into a song I already wrote, you'd be mistaken.
Sorry for not following the rules. I didn't mean to make anyone mad. I took the challenge very seriously (just ask my wife). I just tried writing around the rules and it didn't work out.
I haven't decided if I'm going to shadow the rest or not (I'd really love to). I'm not sure most of the judges would bother reviewing mine after the comments they wrote.
A lot of great songs - congrats to you all.
David, I know you wrote it for the contest. For those who may have been unsure of this...Dave did contact me and ask if you could write a song for the challenge, and then use it for his other project.
ReplyDeleteI would be very happy if you submitted shadows, and it would get at least 1 review from me. I don't force the judges to review shadows, but if they do it's always appreciated. Whether they review it, I'm sure everyone would love to hear mor from you.
I look forward to hearing more from everyone. One song is a fairly worthless way to make a decision about an artist.
ReplyDeleteDavid -
ReplyDeleteGood to see more feedback about this - I assumed it was a repurposed song - my error.
I'd like to hear you shadowing songs going forward (I'll be joining you, since we're off the island now) and I think the judges have been getting better in reviewing the shadow songs. I know I'd be a little frustrated to get no feedback after submitting one.

Hey all - awesome work this round! I had a lot of fun hearing what everyone threw down.
ReplyDeleteFor the record, Ruff is my actual middle name, so no quotes needed. No biggie, of course, but just wanted to mention that in case anyone thought it was a lame self-appointed/self-aggrandizing nickname or a pathetic attempt to sound tough. Its my mom's last name, and I identify strongly with both sides of my family, so I like to use my full name for music stuff.
Good luck with the sequels! Going to be an interesting challenge for sure.
Ryan...I will correct the quotes in your name. My bad.
ReplyDeleteNo worries! Cheers, Travis.
ReplyDeleteI'm suddenly very uncertain about calling myself Sammy "Paul" Kablam.
