The TAC Roulette V.5...DTF Faves..WTF Am I Missing?? MastoDONE!

[LudwigVan]

Sent brah!

Sent a question back to you!

Asked and answered!

[ariich]

Do It Again isn't a bad song by any stretch. A score of 7.5 basically says that I feel a song is totally average. Nothing really stands out, but nothing I dislike.

I have to say that I'm a little disappointed in a few of you, who actually are familiar with Neal Morse
Other than Evermind who has an excuse. Maybe these songs were sent because they're personal faves, and I totally appreciate that, but it just seemed there are so many songs at your (Lonestar/Stadler/Ariich) disposal that were..better.

Well, I'd say that it's hard to know what you'll think, plus I'm generally preferring to send two songs of slightly different styles to give you a fuller representation of the artist's work (which I know you're keen on, hence the whole 50% Neal vocals rule). I don't actually know what the Hall & Oates reference means, but the result is disappointing for sure. I think that's a really great little song, with a nice punchy groove and great hooks. Seems in this round especially the long songs pretty much all scored well, so maybe I should just stick with epics from now on.

I have sent!

[Kwyjibo]

Alright, not bad, not bad at all.

I thought about sending Into The Fire but thought it wouldn't work as a stand alone song.

Tim, if you like it that much, do yourself a favor and listen to "?", especially the run from Sweet Elation/Into The Fire/Solid As The Sun and end it with the cheesy and pompous The Glory Of The Lord, as this really is one long song with lots of reprising themes.

And because it's my favorite Neal Morse record, because it's just soooo good. 

edit: sent some random stuff

[ariich]

Well, I'd say that it's hard to know what you'll think,

Touche.

EDIT: Oh also every time I see this thread title I think it says Morsluts.

[King Postwhore]

 

Yeah, seriously, Rich.

[ariich]

Sent!

I like both Weathering Sky and Another Story to Tell, but I can understand why they wouldn't perform as well in roulette. They're both kind of "ordinary" songs, albeit really good ones, while some of the longer ones have more of the NM magic.

[TAC]

Ordinary is a good word. Another Story and a really just that. Not a bad song but not one that stood out or clicked it’s way up.
I really wasn’t crazy about Weathering Sky though, and I can’t imagine it with Stadler singing. 

[Evermind]

I actually think I won't roll the dice for this and just send two songs from Hi Apollo I'm Fallen Star IV: The Wishing Wish in the Eyes of Madness.

[Buddyhunter1]

TAC, when you reveal who sent what you should type out all the song names by memory and see how many you can get right.

[Crow]

I wouldn't even be able to get all the song names right 

[HOF]

My song titles are both pretty short.

I already failed that in a PM.

Oh that's easy.

Welcome Home.

How'd I do?

[425]

My song titles are both pretty short.

My two song titles are a total of six words.

You'll get a few freebies.

Mine total up to four words I think. There were at least two other one word titles I considered. This band is a lot less out there than I anticipated going in.

Yeah, you can't send 4 songs!

[TAC]

Just waiting on Wolfking.

[King Postwhore]

I tried. Lol

I sent 4 words as well. Did we send the same stuff?

Everybody sent the same stuff.

[Elite]

Christ

[Evermind]

I'm pretty sure there are like 10 Welcome Homes in there

[425]

Everybody definitely sent Welcome Home. I didn't. But I wouldn't be surprised if other people sent both of my songs.

[HOF]

Everybody sent the same stuff.

Time to get cracking on Opeth I guess.

[Buddyhunter1]

Shortest round yet in terms of playlist length, I'm assuming?

[wolfking]

I just sent Welcome Home.  Hopefully no one else sent that one.

[Crow]

Shortest round yet in terms of playlist length, I'm assuming?

to be fair this was bound to happen anyways as generally coheed songs don't run as long as any of the other artists so far 
mastodon will probably be similar, aside from the one album from them that's banned anyways their songs tend to run relatively short

[ariich]

I did not send Welcome Home.

[HOF]

I did not send Welcome Home.

I too did not send Welcome Home.

[425]

My prediction for the second-most popular one: In Keeping Secrets of Silent Earth: 3

[Buddyhunter1]

I sent both.
