  • i think it is normal
    I often say thank you to bands if theyv'e come in between some really rubbish tracks lol :D

    Umm i havn't had too many songs with lyrics like that i generally chastisise if thats the right word, something along the lines of *really is there any need to use such language to get your point across now hmm?, no i didn't think so "

    I'm not offended by it but i dont think its necessary for people to include it sometimes
  • aww eshkie :( have you tried rebooting your comp, it might work?

    I am having a ball tonight, not had a bad song (well not reaaalllly bad) but had some great ones! Inc Carnival kids, listened to it twice hehe.

    Re: Vulgerness, yeah I have a go sometimes, sometimes I can't be bothered and I just go out and in again....

    yeah it randomly started working again but it's being a bit tempermental. got the carnival kids though so that should cheer it up! have had them in nearly every scout room and am loving it! got some mad country one about someone being a bad assed cowboy just now. wouldn't be so bad if he didn't sound 12.... lol

    as for the vulgar bits, i've told a few of them they sound like kids who have just learned a new naughty word and feel the need to say it over and over again. And a few of them that no matter what they say they've done it's all just wishful thinking!!

    hello!!

    it's just a case of keep going. make sure you write constructive reviews that are of a decent length. other than that keep reviewing! miss pixie has put together a FAQ sticky so have a look in there and you might find some info to help you on your way!

    Oh bah, my favourite song has disappeared off my watchlist :( Looks like the band has taken it off the site and it's not on their website either :(

    Edit - D'oh! They've just renamed the track, not removed it, so panic over :o

    Is it me or is the standard much higher now???? Tonight I have listened to 30 tracks and only 1 has been what I would say below par. Do not know what this will do to mmy scout rating handing out all these 7s, 8s and 9s!!!!

    Just heard a little gem of something different " Rge Welsh Trumpeter Geraini Barnes" doing a fantastic version of My Way, Are covers still a "no no"?? Anyway it was so good I ignored the fact it was a cover.

    Wondering if the rest of you find the same that the standard has increased? Maybe I will get a run of bad stuff tomorrow to scupper this idea!!!

    Jools

    PS Good luck with your scouting folks.

    I'm back up to 2 stars now - and earned £3.20 today - yay!

    Have other people been getting songs they already reviewed last time - how are you managing to write origanal reviews?

    think that means it's time I logged off and went to bed
