Ren's song was amazing, but I understand the content would be alittle much for people.

I do wanna know about the singer from your song. Sounded like ANOTHER band the Karnivool/Birds of Tokyo guy is in

 

[Rodney Dangerfield]

5- Copperhead Road (Steve Earle)
4- Headache (Frank Black)
3- True Colours (Cyndi Lauper)
2- Violets tale (Ren)
1-Big yellow taxi (Joni Mitchell)

B- Midnight love (Girl in Red)

 

[Purple7x08_24]

If the new stuff was good I would give it votes, but it was crap compared to the classics. You’re melts are delicious

Hardly a melt haha

This comp frustrates me.

Violet got my 5 votes because it was clearly the best unique and interesting song. Re reward a bote whore cherry picking a 4th place 19 vote performance over unique and new nominations. We should be rewarding those who hunt down new music. Riviat its about time you nominated a great song

As for Joni Mitchell. My god.

The song is fascinating and i've never heard anything like it. It's like a stage show performance.

Hah glad you liked Blue Turns to Grey. Written by Jagger / Richards and backing on Cliff's version by the fab Shadows I assume. I thought from your teaser it would be one of the 'nostalgia' numbers from lower down but it would be pre - nostalgia for you
