[url]www.songfight.org[/url] submission for this weeks songfight. Thrawn was going to do some drums in the background, but I couldn't get ahold of him. It's a really simple, silly song, nothing spectacular. Just me and my bass and about an hour or two of time :p

sounds a bit like system

It reminds me of The Nightmare Before Christmas.

Edit: Nevermind:p Didnt read the whole post

Good job by the way.

Forest/Psycho sexed together, is what I thought of when I heard it.

I can KIND OF MAYBE (not really) see Psycho (beacuse I say the word 'crazy?')...but Forest?

Unless of course you were making a funny...in which case, I missed it

For once, Monoxide's right. The lyrics remind me more of Psycho, or maybe Sugar, while the bass reminds me a lot of Forest.

Not too shabby, though, for just having a bass to accompany you that's a rather boring bassline, and sometimes it goes off-key (I'm not talking about just at the end).

Hey Vic you should add me to your Msn. lazerus250@hotmail.com

Songfight reviews:

Del Sesto: This would be great in Spinal Tap style with like 3 lead basses going on. The riff at the beginning seems real out of place because there’s no relationship to the rest of the song at all. The lyrics are funny, they remind of something that Dr. Demento would have played on his show. The ending is perfectly placed as my attention span had run it’s course. You actually get points for that from me because you didn’t drive it into the ground forever.

Del Sesto: heh! fun AND funny... great lyrics.

Del Sesto: Just as the world becomes mortally sick of guy ‘n’ guitar, along comes guy ‘n’ bass to save the day! Nice twist. Plus, hilarious lyrics and one of the most awesome song endings of all time. However, this is going to be tough to score, since the overall result is not very musically pleasing. With bad lyrics and a normal ending, this would be a 3 out of 10, but with hilarious lyrics and an awesome ending, it’s a 6.5.

Del Sesto: This makes me wanna punch you in the face. You can write obnoxious lyrics and sing them with an obnoxious voice and make annoying comments between verses when you when you have more music than a silly punk rock bassline. Not awesome.

Del Sesto: well done for writing a song on a bass. I like the maniacal laughter and the way you kept the mistake in. have you seen that Kids in the Hall sketch about the bass player? this reminded me of that. Welcome to songfight

Ha I like it very much.

But only due to SAJN's charismatic singing and style.

  do a dude}

I really like it, it's just got that touch to it that compels me to like it.

However, I reckon Dan-o from Five-o's entry should win. Sorry.

Midget Stealing!

Baconfish, don't be sorry. Most of the entries are better than mine, I just did this for fun. I don't expect to win, but it really helps me get better at music the more I do these. As for people saying it sounds like SoaD. I don't see that at all. The lyrics are more Weird Al than SoaD. I don't even see how you can get to SoaD at ALL. The bassline is punk, not metal at all. It's just a simple punk-souding riff that goes (9999/5555/7777/3333/9999/5555/3333/7) I haven't really listened to SoaD for the past few months. It's been mostly classic rock. I'm not getting pissy, I just think it's weird that when I made this song I had Bad Company songs stuck in my head (Not saying it sounds like them, beacuse even if I wanted, I couldn't be that awesome), and yet people still think it sounds like SoaD. Even Ruthven IM'd me on AIM and told me he could tell the SoaD influence.

1) SoaD isn't metal...rock maybe...but not metal.

2) I hear SoaD. So what? I'm just saying what I hear.

3) Weren't you the one that said SoaD took a more punk-rock like direction with the new albums?

1) SoaD isn't metal...rock maybe...but not metal. (Some people call them nu-metal. While I think it's a load of crap, it's still a type of 'metal')

2) I hear SoaD. So what? I'm just saying what I hear. (I just find it weird that everyone here knows me as the SoaD fanatic, and they all hear an SoaD influence, when everyone else that doesn't know me, doesn't see any SoaD influence at all)

3) Weren't you the one that said SoaD took a more punk-rock like direction with the new albums? (Nope, but if I find the person that did say that, I'll murder them.)

yayy musical notation!

I'm sorry MBeggar.



The above has nothing to do with my song at all. [/COLOR]

SOAD was metal until they released Steal This Album!

I have one big advice to give you. no matter how much **** others give you for trying your best at your instrument. don't ever stop playing. you get better simply because you play. if you give up because of criticism you didn't deserve to play anyway.

not that i get the idea you're quitting or anything. seems people here are being way too hard for a simple hobby. it's not like you're paying him to hear his stuff.

Just so you know, i wasnt trying to be mean :p I was in a goofy mood today

And I completely agree with seb

I practice with my bass a few hours a day, I don't think I'll be quitting anytime soon. It's way too much fun.

I made one criticism, and it was just that, a criticism...if you were referring to me, seb, I wasn't even saying anything bad about his bass playing this time around.

i wasn't referring to anyone. i was referring to the history. though if you feel pointed at maybe you should ask yourself a few questions

The only reason I feel pointed as is because 1) I dislike you, 2) I'm fairly sure by now you dislike me and 3) I did in the past, and maybe you were bringing that up now.

ah well. stop assuming so much. i don't dislike you, or anyone. but thanks for clearing that up. i always thought there was some coolness in you. sad to see i was wrong.

NO! Yoshi is right.

I voted for some band called Del Sesto or something though.

<3

Hehe

Oh, so you randomly try to piss off people seriously in the chat for no reason? Good to know.

I can't wait till someone gets the balls to permaban you.

Ditto.

We can all dream.

Play my guitar damn you sajn

I SOLD IT FOR A REASON

hey now not to lenghten a thread but i'm a very playful but annoying person, and i hold my opinions dearly until i see a genuine reason to change them.

Sorry yoshi but i seriously don't hate you and i'm dissapointed you see me this way. because i'm not a troublemaker. i'm just very loudmouthed.

I said dislike--not hate. There's a huge difference.
