With originals, even if the performance isn't selling, I have the knowledge that this is your work...... These are YOUR words, YOUR melodies....it is, in a fashion, some small piece of you that is being shared. So even if you end up trying so hard to maximize your performance on a technical level that the feeling of the song gets tempered, that assumption of authenticity is still at the core of my listening experience.

Also, where the fuck is Kevin.
I hear ya.

although not necessary, I would suggest that bare-boned be encouraged.

or in the least, the bare-bones should be the heart of the judging matter, leaving the presenter to not be encumbered by the details of a technically-specific=laden perfromance, but rather to be more entwined within the heartstrings of the song itself

wait, that's what you just said

This isn't really happening. It's another one of stip's elaborate lies.

I'm less and less interested as time goes by. I think I'd rather just put my songs up on Release than sit around waiting for a tournament that may or may not happen, and isn't guaranteed to ever reach its conclusion.

So shall we abandon the contest and just celebrate each other's artistic endeavours?

At least if there is a contest there is a minute chance someone might listen to a song you write. If you just post it in Release the odds go to nill.
