Well, my vote went to Disco Dragon. There wasn't much in the way of really good stuff this month (I read most months but don't post) but DD's song was really good.

theredwonder 03-08-2005 08:10 AM

My entry sucked but i hope doing these challenges will help me improve. DD got my 2nd vote and k.s.e 3rd. They were both excellent songs but not really my cup of tea so they were kept off the top spot.

k.s.e. 03-08-2005 08:36 AM

well thats nice.. i got a last place vote by some guy who doesn't even know how to vote...

Nightvision 03-08-2005 08:52 AM

Meh, it probably didn't have enough to do with suicide. :p

k.s.e. 03-08-2005 10:32 AM

it actually has nothing to do with suicide

i think african americans are the downfall of western society.

k.s.e. 03-08-2005 12:06 PM

not to mention the dentists and the jews.

Necroses-bass 03-08-2005 12:15 PM

apparently they are the people that hold everything together. 'the glue that keeps society apart' well i think we'll need some better glue because society is f.ucked up and falling apart.

I'm not racist, its just a little observation

Ok, well interpret it how you will.

theredwonder 03-08-2005 04:05 PM

MMPR just edited in an entry and screwed up the votes :rolleyes:

CSD & the Soul Machines 03-08-2005 05:22 PM

Your dam skippy I did.

Actually I hadn't realized that the voting thread was opened already, and the entry thread wasn't closed so I figured I enter. I guess I'll be skipped this round.

RunAmokRampant 03-08-2005 11:46 PM

wow subtle didn't enter. Maybe he is just letting someone else win this time lol

d0ped0g 03-09-2005 03:43 AM

haha yeah :/

pixiesfanyo 03-09-2005 12:11 PM

Acutally Subtle is obsessed with DnD.

[QUOTE=theredwonder]Wrong.[/QUOTE]

please explain why society is not ****ed and falling apart

pixiesfanyo 03-09-2005 05:22 PM

society is always f[B]u[/B]cked up and falling apart.

do you want a cupcake?

plz explain why it IS ****ed up and falling apart

Disco Dragon 03-09-2005 09:15 PM

Society shmiety, if you ask me we don't really need a society. I'd prefer something more along the lines of a non-stop, non-democratic toga-party. You know, something with liquor but not those pesky lines at the urinals......

......I guess what I'm saying is that since society is being pissed down the drain anyways (and always has been), we should at least do something to help it along...such as drink heavy amounts of alcohol.


P.S. I got kicked in the face at karate class tonight....so I got that going for me.

Disco Dragon 03-09-2005 09:17 PM

By the way, how come I'm getting such good scores this time around? Usually, I get in like the lower 10th percentile.....

A_Perfect_Sonnet 03-09-2005 09:46 PM

Apparently, there are a few other 10th percentiles that are below you.

Disco Dragon 03-09-2005 10:23 PM

Hmmmmm.....Ya know, I've never been a big fan of math either.

d0ped0g 03-09-2005 11:25 PM

i bet the one line "conceal each moment with a kiss" will put so many ppl off my song :/

ATC 03-10-2005 02:20 AM

Does wonders for the complexion, that.

Now that I've realized (through the crits) that songs I didnt particularly like apparently remind people of Bright Eyes, I can safely say, without bothering to ever listen to them, that they suck.

I don't like Norma Jean either. Same principle.

And in other happy news, I'm off to Greece and Spain in the summer. Yay.

theredwonder 03-10-2005 05:53 AM

[QUOTE=Necroses-bass]please explain why society is not ****ed and falling apart[/QUOTE]

Please explain to me why it is.

super deluxe 03-10-2005 01:39 PM

[QUOTE=pixiesfanyo]Acutally Subtle is obsessed with DnD.[/QUOTE]

And somebody asked why society is falling apart?

A_Perfect_Sonnet 03-10-2005 03:18 PM

I don't see why my songs are compared to Bright Eyes, when I play and sing them, I don't sound anything like Conor :shrug:.

Disco Dragon 03-10-2005 08:08 PM

Who are Bright Eyes? I don't know who they are, but apparently there are lots of folks on here who don't like being compared to them...so that suggests that they suck.

A_Perfect_Sonnet 03-10-2005 08:29 PM

Bright Eyes is really just a singer/songwriter (Conor Oberst) that has a band and plays with a few other people. He does stuff that ranges from electronica tracks to acoustic pieces. I personally like his stuff a lot, though he's losing his touch.

It cuz I not there.

lolz. I spoke coolish engle.

Necroses-bass 03-11-2005 05:07 PM

[QUOTE=theredwonder]Please explain to me why it is.[/QUOTE]
just read the following plays: equus (peter shaffer) and an inspector calls (J.B. Priestly) they will make it clearer for you.
If u cant b arsed to read them it comes to this No one gives a crap about anyone but themselves :evil:

also try listening to Rage against the machine or papa roach

d0ped0g 03-11-2005 06:10 PM

if you cant be arsed to prove the point that you originally stated then get the **** outta here :P

Necroses-bass 03-12-2005 07:27 AM

[QUOTE=d0ped0g]if you cant be arsed to prove the point that you originally stated then get the **** outta here :P[/QUOTE]
to simplify it
My point:society is ****ed up and falling apart
My argument: no-one gives a crap about anyone except themselves
My evidence to back this up: the dramatic texts 'Equus' (peter shaffer) and 'An Inspector calls' (J.B. Priestly)

Do u understand now?

Necroses-bass 03-12-2005 07:45 AM

Can i please comment on the common misunderstanding
of gothic music, 'Good goth lyrics are chilling, usually depressive
and grotesque' -WRONG- no offence but these kind of lyircs do not fit
in the true gothic gategory, proper gothic lyrics are fairy tales put
in a poetic sense. But then again are there still many real goths around,
Because most goths nowadays are just trying to be as extreme as possible and
think a gothic lifestyle is all based around satanism. if it can fit around any religion
it is still Pagan, Gothic is about the search for individuality not about demons, drugs
and killing yourself.
:P

A_Perfect_Sonnet 03-12-2005 09:17 AM

Seems to me Necroses-bass did some random voting.

Fatt Sorum - 1st :rolleyes:

EDIT: Scratch that, he must just like that song for some reason, beyond everyone elses comprehension :).

I hate it that you compared an excellent play like Equus to a band that writes lyrics like:

CUT MY LIFE INTO PIECES!
THIS IS MY LAST RESORT!



hate hate hate. :evil:

Necroses-bass 03-12-2005 06:53 PM

its not a comparison, just giving examples of well known people that critisize on modern society

pixiesfanyo 03-12-2005 07:02 PM

SUFFOCATION!
NO BREATHING!
DON'T GIVE A F[b]U[/b]CK!
IF I CUT MY ARM!
