Is this song right for Dispatch D121219PO

Post by shellsings » Fri Dec 14, 2012 4:36 pm

Below is the description for the Dispatch that came out and I have an older song of mine called My Delicious Love, that is pop/rock with a bit of electric. the intro of the song was licensed in this LaSenza ad for bras. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I5s_iS-vMDE it was my first license ;)


The song is on my Taxi Page : My Delicious Love (ft. Tawni)



HEAD of A&R at a SUPER-COOL Korean Label U-R-G-E-N-T-L-Y needs CONTEMPORARY, UPTEMPO POP/ROCK SONGS with FEMALE VOCALS in the vein of "U + Ur Hand" by P!nk, "Ooh LaLa" by Grace Potter, "Hollaback Girl" by Gwen Stefani, etc., for a new artist on their roster. QUOTING THE SOURCE: "We're looking for songs that have a similar to sound to Gwen Stefani, but with a more rockin' edge. We don't need the lyrics to be Korean, English lyrics are fine." They're looking for HOT songs with plenty of COMMERCIAL-APPEAL. Songs should be SUPER-CATCHY, with a SING-A-LONG CHORUS and MEMORABLE MELODIES that can keep the listener engaged from START to FINISH! Lyric themes should be about CONFIDENCE, SEXINESS, GUILTY PLEASURES,

Just came across this post. Great song!

In my opinion for this particular listing, it doesn't have enough "rock" to fit into the pop/rock category of P!nk and Grace Potter but definitely think it has the urban pop of latter day Gwen Stefani. I think that it would be great for listings that use Ke$ha or Britney as an a la. Although with a tad more guitar, perhaps it would fit naturally into the pop/rock genre. I think it's only a matter of finding the right listing - this song is quality material!

Did you hear back from a screener yet?

Good luck!
