Tim, I have a confession to make.
The score and write-up I posted for your Heart submission... was fake. Because of the fogey-on-fogey bickering, your fellow fogeys (who, I have it on record, are bastards) thought it would be fun to mess with you, and who was I to say no.
You didn't come last.
You didn't score 7.2.
You didn't drop from 3rd place to 11th.
In fact, your submission was better than any of theirs, and has kept you in the running in a solid 4th place.
I've updated the results posts with your real results, real standings and real graphs. Here's your real review:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
TAC – Heart1. Crazy On You
2. Alone
3. Barracuda
4. Magic Man
First impression: Fantastic vocals, I just wonder if I might end up finding the music too tame.
Final opinion: So the answer was that, on the whole, no I don’t find this music too tame at all. In fact, I like it a lot! I find it funny that some of your fellow fogeys have been ripping into you, considering that to my ears this is pretty much as poppy as what they sent me. Indeed I think it was probably the soft sound and low mix on the electric guitar that prompted my initial reaction about the music being tame, but once I got my head around it, I found myself really enjoying it. Crazy On You, Alone and Magic Man all have some great, memorable hooks, and Wilson has a superb voice. The only dud, which incidentally feels the closest to being a rock song, is Barracuda, which ok is kind of fun I guess, but also kind of corny.
Score: 8.1--------------------------------------------------------------------------
