However, in the feedback for the song "Beauty", it says "There are tuning, rhythm, or dissonance issues". The song "Beauty" definitely has a non-standard rhythm to it in places, but I'm not hearing the reasoning behind this. It's all MIDI driven stuff. Usually I don't quantize by clicking the 'Quantize' button in the DAW. I play the part and then manually move any out of place notes, but I try to make sure that everything lines up. So I might be missing something there? I checked my vocals against a piano and they seem to be in tune. What are your thoughts?
Beauty (Original)
NOTE: I am working on remastering these songs and have just posted a new version of "Beauty" here. I think that the re-master has more loudness, clarity, and impact to me so I'm wondering if I had submitted this version, that it would change any of the feedback that I received for this listing.
Beauty (Remaster)
Here is the other song that I submitted and received similar feedback for (minus the tuning/rhythm issues). This one doesn't have a remaster yet.

My other questions for you all are:
- What are the chances that a library would select these songs for the instrumental portions of these song? Many of my songs have instrumental introductions and could be looped I would think. I figure if they aren't finding traditional catchy pop structures, then they can use parts of the songs.
- What types of listings do you think these songs would be the best fit for?
