Country returns

[jjktunes]

I'm ok with another batch of returns, but it just blows my mind at the inconsistency of the listeners reviews. Everybody that I have asked on the forum agree that "The Undertow" should be listed in the contemporary listings, I agree 100%.And what does this mean "I song feels to me like the "notes"for the song you have yet to write" Listing # S090910COhttp://www.taximusic.com/song.php?song_id=2529 ... =trueTitle: The Undertow / acoustic (10=best) 8 Melody 7 Lyrics 8 Marketability 8 Song Structure 7 Production 8 Engineering 8 Musicianship 8 Lead VocalGood idea. Feels a bit on the "dated" side and is not contemporary as asked for in the listing. the lyrics feels like a series of statements, rather than a conversational lyric. I song feels to me like the "notes"for the song you have yet to write.Status: Forward ReturnTitle: One Minute / acoustichttp://www.taximusic.com/song.php?song_id=252990&stream=true 8 Melody 8 Lyrics 8 Marketability 8 Song Structure 7 Production 8 Engineering 9 Musicianship 9 Lead VocalStrong effort. Good use of conversational lyrics, they set up the images very well. The last section slips into a bit too preachy, I would suggest a rewrite of that section.Status: Forward ReturnStyle On target for this listing Hard to classify Not close enough to what listing asked for Not "current" sounding Style not consistent enough from song to song for an artist pitchListing ays, " Contemporary country ala Brooks and Dunn, powerful , emotional , visual lyrics, hooks, top notch demos, etc.Overall CommentsHello James. you are doing some very good workStay conversational, and strive for originality. I feel the songs are both miscast for this act. Demos have become very important in todays world. This is not a Taxi thing, it is what the producers are requesting . So the best demos you produce can goo a long ways. "One minute" is a producers dream , I think, buts needs to be spelled out a bit better to them. You have the chops for sure, keep up the good work. Good luckBio CommentsN/aThe main reason(s) you were or were not forwarded for this listing is:The songs do not meet the criteria set by the listing. The songs are miscast for this listing.Listener ID # 278
