Review this song, then post another...

[Charlie124]

Shamelessly stolen this idea from another forum but i thought it might be worth a go in here too.

The idea is simple enough. Review the song suggested in the post above yours (assuming you can find it on youtube or whatever). Just tell us what you think, maybe give it an X/10 rating. Then suggest a song for the next person to review. If you feel like it, including a link to youtube or whatever in your suggestion would be nice.

A few rules. Try not to make things too obscure. Maybe check it out on YouTube first. Don't make this a misguided search for internet credibility. Don't flame anyone if you dont like the song they posted, just say what you think of the song itself and post one of your own.

Try to keep the thread on track.


I'll go first.

Awesome song, but the cd version does no justice to seeing it live. 8/10

I liked the sound, but found the vocals irritating 6/10

uhhh yeah the idea is to write a review of the song. what you liked and what you didnt like etc. So try to post more than 3 words and if you've never heard of them, thats a perfect opportunity to listen to something new and tell us what you think of it. Otherwise why bother posting that youve never heard of them???

Anyway, continue.

I like the riff in it. That sounded awesome. But the voice of the singer was a bit off putting. Plus one of the comments at the bottom called him a gay looking Vin Diesel, and I somewhat agree with it. 6/10

I really liked it, the crescendo was beautiful, and the vocals had this real sexy huskiness to them, which was coupled with sweet undertones, sounded great 8.5/10

Definately a weird one, but catchy none the less. Id be interested to read the lyrics and figure out just what the hell its about, but i liked it despite being very out of the ordinary. 6.5/10

catchy, interesting vocals. I would bang the singer for sure. A bit cutesy for my tastes though.

I found something a bit sickly about the sounds of this song, really not my genre, I found it hard to appreciate much about the song because the sounds of it irked me 3/10

Pretty mediocre song, boring and very commercial. About as bland as Eskimo Joe to be honest, 2/10

I liked it, I am a fan of 70s hard rock - it just feels like the type of song you would have playing whilst riding your motorbike on a long open road 8/10

I can appreciate the band and the music, but the vocalist was a bit of a let down for me, although I liked the lyrics, I just think they could have been sung better, I feel that the way th vocals were sung did not complement the band well6.5/10
