ROUND 5 RESULTS!
So I totally didn't even realize that I hadn't recieved Seth's, so his results will be done after I get his song. I won't dock him any points, because I didn't give him a reminder or anything.
Lonestar: Aerosmith - Big Ten Inch Record
lololololol. I'm not really a big Aerosmith fan (SHOCKING) but it's not terrible or anything. It fits in with the theme pretty - I definitely see it as the kind of song I'd enjoy at a bar or party as background music to get my curvacious hips a rockin'. On a personal note, whenever I need to liven up a party I just wip out my 4 inch minidisc, but maybe that's just me.
Relevance: 3/4

Total: 5/8
Nekov: Illegal Aliens - Ratrace
Hmm, this was an odd song for me; I felt like I should have enjoyed it far more than I actually did. Something about the production was a major turnoff for me - it felt like a backing track for a instructional guitar DVD or something. The songwriting wasn't too bad by any means, and I LOVED the drumming (not surprising, considering it's Minnemann). Topically, it felt too proggy and odd to be really party appropriate. All in all though, I can't really score this too highly :/

Jingle.Boy: Prince - Let's Go Crazy
Prince is one of those artists who I'm familiar with despite not being able to name a single song of his. Squiggly line name or no, the song was quite good. It's not really the kind of thing I see myself putting on regularly, but it would be perfect in a bar/jukebox to me - it was very similar to Lonestar's submission in that way. I enjoyed the song quite a bit more however and, given the choice between the two on a jukebox, would definitely take this one.

Orcus: The Who - Instant Party Mixture
I actually used to be a really big fan of The Who when I was a wee lad, but for whatever reason never heard their debut album, so I accepted this song. It was a good song though. Much like previous songs, not really something I'd listen to on my own, but still very fitting for the theme.

Rich: Freak Kitchen - Porno Daddy
I actually know Freak Kitchen, which a certain person should know BECAUSE WE SAW THEM TOGETHER WITH XJ OR DID YOU FORGET THAT MAGICAL NIGHT HUH :cry:
Anyways, I'd actually totally forgotten about them, and this song was a great submission. Rockin, technical but not to the point of losing the groove, and quite heavy but not inaccessibly so (which is important for the theme).

LieLow: A Great Big Pile of Leaves - Alligator Bop
I've heard them pimped around, but never actually listened. This was really good. Quite a bit different from the above submissions - certainly more 'indie' or somesuch. I don't really have a whole lot to say about the song - it didn't grab me a ton, but I still really enjoyed it. I like the clean guitar melodies and horns especially. As for the topic, I can definitely see this going well at a smaller house party or less crowded bar, so thumbs up on that front.
