No worries king - I make allowances for the extra duties that come with being a monarch.

Some teasers:


" I found the plodding verses a touch repetitive throughout the song , but on the other hand it is only second to ######'s song this round in terms of songwriting "

"strong vocals which is always a great start but in the end I found the music a little on the bland side , a bit keyboard heavy and not quite varied enough to hold my attention fully for ? minutes"

" The deceptively simple little guitar lick (it’s barely long enough to be called a “lick”) over the top of the lovely keyboards is very effective "

"it took me a while to think who they remind me of most and I think it’s Autograph"

"I feel guilty ranking this up there near the top three songs , but we’re ranking on enjoyment mostly and occasionally a mega cheesy “by the numbers” song like this will still grab me , despite my best instincts :lol "

"I enjoyed this.........it’s very straight ahead bluesy hard rock (not unlike early KISS in terms of the groove and guitar sound) with some NWOBHM elements to the vocals especially"

These two may be mine, but I'm not sure about this guitar lick thing and I don't think my song is "mega cheesy" and "by the numbers", so yeah, no idea.

A couple of quotes in there give me hope. Sounding like Autograph isn't a great thing  :biggrin: and NWBHM vocals were generally poor and along with the often poor production stopped me getting into many of the bands.
Of those comments worryingly only the top one could be mine I think  :-\

If mine is in the group of quotes, it's one of these.

One of these is mine. Hopefully not the Autograph one.

Saw them open for VH in 1984. If you feel bad for them now, you would've really felt bad for them then. Practically booed off the stage. It was brutal. NO ONE wanted anything to do with them. :lol

Bring on Van Halen!!! :metal

I've heard a couple of new songs which sounded pretty good but their original output wasn't great.
