perhaps the most baffling take on the title, even with your liner notes, but this is infuriatingly catchy bubblegum pop that I find hard to resist. The drums are pretty wild in places, feels like the drummer (real or virtual) needs reigning in a bit.

This is kinda ridiculous and sounds like it was recorded under a duvet. Not sure what the massive pointless drumfill was all about.

I think you had fun doing this, and that's what counts. The piano work is cool. You're selling a really bad joke really well, but not well enough for it to not be bad. Execution: C-, concept: D, hooks: C+

Er...what? A very puzzling entry which appears to bear no relation to the title whatsoever. However, it is definitely upbeat, a real earworm and you've played the numbers game successfully to live to fight another (hopefully more relevant to the title) day.

My husband heard this one too and said it reminded him of some tracks on the Nuggets compilation of underground 60's garage band music. I found this kind of baffling to listen to but also endearing. A couple of degrees of separation from the "ooga chakas" in Blue Swede's "Hooked on a Feeling" (which I love) but doesn't ever quite get to a big, hooky payoff part. The vocals were nicely performed and mixed, but the instrumental felt too much like a canned band-in-a-box demo track to me, especially those big fake drum fills, which felt very distracting. I have no idea what the song has to do with the title, so if we were doing eliminations this round I probably would have scored you a lot lower, but this time around I let it slide as I enjoyed the song's personality and vibe.
