Rate the Song Above You
Posted: Tue Oct 18, 2016 10:41 pm
This is a pretty simple forum game which I've found really enjoyable and eye opening to the broad world of music on other forums.
All you have to do is listen to the song above you, rate it on a scale from 1-10, and give two or more comments on the song.
The song must be provided in a link to a website which lets you play the track for free and without a membership, so yes to youtube and bandcamp, but no to spotify or the like.
In the OP I'll give Jebus his due and rate a Kayak song.
Kayak - "Merlin"
6.5/10
There was a nice atmosphere to the song with the reverb effect and cool synths. There's a funny melody at the end and elsewhere which rings some bells, but not enough for me to remember where I first heard that melody from. The vocals were pretty decent and carried the song well, and the guitar leads and guitar/synth solos were cool, but I felt that the song was a bit overrlong and had too many unoutstanding parts, like they wanted to make it epic by making it longer than need be. Feels very 80's, but in a good way.
So, now here's my song for reviewal up next, if anyone's interested.
