"...Tranquil."

submission: Cayler Performs Suteki Da Ne

date: September 27, 2008

I was stunned to silence when the vocals started up. It was peaceful, soft, and with many underlying emotional tones like these sorts of songs often are. I love hearing Japanese lyrics performed (well) by people who don't have it as a native language. You did really well. I also have a habit of singing Japanese songs, although I don't know the meanings, hehe.
Still, anyway, back to the song: it was really quite beautiful and I practically fell in love with the vocal performance and soft piano... There's not much more I can say, other than well done.

"Elton John crossed with David Bowie/Foreigner?"

submission: ~All The Music~ by Caleb

Wow, I really don't know what to say about this song other than "I loved it". Listening to it was an entertaining process. Once you launched into the "Some say the music..." lines, it was a cool diversion from the other part of the song. I actually throughout the first part of it kept going "This sounds like Darren Hayes from Savage Garden" in my head. Make of that what you will. Personally, I think that means it rocks quite hard, but to each their own.
Yep, you retained a certain classy cheesy-ness about it, but in a good way. I can imagine this being played in a John Travolta film somewhere, in that kind of atmosphere. :D

"Beautiful... Honestly."

submission: ~Beautiful Eyes~ by Cayler

date: September 27, 2008

This is an absolutely gorgeous example of vocals really giving a song that extra spark. I was drawn in practically from the first few words because of the emotion that I could sense. It was quite captivating, really, and I was very enthusiastic about hearing the rest of what the song had to offer.

The lyrics are heartfelt, and quite beautiful... I was inspired by them: creating imagery in my head to go along with the song. It's a lovely romantic song, and the way the notes are sung so passionately and subtley represent that so well.
I swear, you'll be famous somewhere down the track.

As for the music, yes, it did have a sort of Asian feel towards the beginning. Paired with the vocals it was the lesser of the two elements, but that worked in the song's favour, so really there's nothing negative about that. I love the piano/string work; it helps introduce the dramatic yet soft, sensitive atmosphere needed for a song of this type.
Utada Hikaru is a beautiful musician, and from being inspired by her you've also created something beautiful. I'm sure if she heard this she'd love knowing she played a part in influencing it.

<3 Much love, this is definitely a song I'm giving 5/5, 10/10, Fave and Download to.

"..Stunning."

submission: Here You Lay {=MMD=}

date: September 27, 2008

You, I have to say, have one of the most beautiful voices. I can't get over how well this is sung, and not to mention the amazing lyrics. At first, when I read them before the song started, I couldn't picture anybody being able to pull them off impressively, but you certainly managed. I also feel I should compliment the music; it was subtle, and very melodic in the background, but I think everyone knows that the vocals were the most captivating part... Which is why I have to download this.
I really can't get over how beautiful this song is... It's heart-wrenching, emotionally provoking, and I can relate to the lyrics so well. You did a wonderful job making this song. Don't you love the sound of writer's block washing away? It's a great sensation, right?
<3 Much love - you made my month, with that right there.

"You know, I really liked it."

submission: Mary (Studio Recording)

date: September 25, 2008

Wow, this is a nice breath of fresh air. The religious undertones were something that I could take into account and enjoy because I've heard similar music before. By the way, the guitar sounds like it has some Metallica-ish elements. It really worked for the introduction of the song. The vocals were impressive; steady, sufficiently emotional, and passionate whilst at the same time not too overbearing or whingy. Definitely keep working on the song, because I'd love to see it finished.

"Oh yeah."

submission: [DjBjra] - The Freeze

date: September 17, 2008

The moment I heard the music begin and the vocals stop my brain just went "Woah!". Brilliant, absolutely powerful in the commencement of the song and some of the piano work is beautiful. I love the beats that occur that make the entire song just seem to stop in it's tracks for a moment; it adds the most to the song, I think. Interesting slow ending. Made me think of people halted in time during the middle of an elegant rave waltz, lol.
<3 Much love.

"Hilarious."

submission: Be My Bitch

date: September 17, 2008

God, I loved this so hard when I watched the flash... It's just as funny now as it was then. To the person below me (hurray for Vegemite, by the way), I'm trying to figure out if you're saying the Presets are bad or good or just making a reference, haha. (The Presets would probably be jealous, actually). This song is really wonderful, classic romance song. What girl wouldn't have her heart melt at this captivating display of male emotion...chunky male emotion, by the sounds of the end. xD
<3 Much love.

"Fantastic!"

submission: Dave Dacility - Regenbogen

date: September 17, 2008

Wow, the energy in this song is electrifying. The background beats contribute well to the prominent nature of the tunes laid over the top. I especially love what sounds like some whacky, surreal, alien flute melody just past two and a half minutes. That was very original. This whole song is catchy, upbeat and is 100% inspiring in the way it makes you want to get up and dance around to it... Ah, I can picture the rave clubs now. Excellent. <3 Much love for the brilliant skills.

Score: 10

"Hmm."

submission: Poozy's Song!

date: September 15, 2008

Have you gone to see a psychiatrist about these obviously disturbed and egotistic sexual fantasies of yours? Or maybe a good prostitute would help. Either way, classic song. I lolled. HARD. And even if you didn't try, still, it was a gallant effort made towards being a, er... Actually, I don't know WHAT you'd call that. Something, anyway. You have a good brain on you, sir.

"Fast-Paced Excellence."

submission: Desultory Sound

date: September 14, 2008

I really got into this from the first few seconds; the introduction was very neat and prepared the listener for what seemed to be a battle between the different sections of the song, all trying to out-do one another and coming out equal in a harmonious balance of brilliance. It's great to get in a pumped up, adrenalised mood and songs like these are powerful in the amount of energy they have. Great job, awesome submission. <3
