March 27, 201015 yr Author That instrumental literally defines unlistenable. I'm pretty open-minded, and I enjoy the vocals, but I don't see how ANYONE could actually claim to enjoy that instrumental. I think the uncomfortable listening of the song is what makes it, for me. The exploration of the whole song together is rather interesting imo. I rather like it. It's still FAR from The Knife's best though. :wub:!
March 27, 201015 yr That instrumental literally defines unlistenable. I'm pretty open-minded, and I enjoy the vocals, but I don't see how ANYONE could actually claim to enjoy that instrumental. Now that we are into the voting phase I don't want to say about what I think about other entries until the voting is over or they are out of the contest. But my taste in music does cater for challenging music. However, I suspect The Knife track was inspired by this seminal track that is 35 years old: Zr0KkzbbqPI Lou Reed - Metal Machine Music
March 27, 201015 yr TBH when the Knife song came, I skipped after 30 seconds...sorry but it's just not my thing especially when I have a headache :drama:

March 27, 201015 yr Listening to the entries for Semi 1 now. WTF is with Eledan's entry? It's just noise. And not just noise- Like jarring, headachy noise. Eurgh.
March 27, 201015 yr TBH when the Knife song came, I skipped after 30 seconds...sorry but it's just not my thing especially when I have a headache :drama: You should really try to listen to the whole piece some time. I have the impression that these experiences broadens your musical perspective.. :heart:
March 27, 201015 yr You should really try to listen to the whole piece some time. I have the impression that these experiences broadens your musical perspective.. :heart: not today...headache still going :( and I'm versatile and appreciate every kind of music, but when it doesn't click it doesn't no matter how many times I play.
March 27, 201015 yr I've never had so much discussion about my entry like ever. <3 Wait 'til you see my next entry too :kink:
March 27, 201015 yr I've never had so much discussion about my entry like ever. <3 Wait 'til you see my next entry too :kink: I doubt it reached Caroline Af Uglas level on terms of discussion.
March 27, 201015 yr not today...headache still going :( and I'm versatile and appreciate every kind of music, but when it doesn't click it doesn't no matter how many times I play. The reason why it actually would broaden your perspectives, is because it doesn't click with you. You're supposed to fully listen to something you don't like. That's the point! :cheer: Edited March 27, 201015 yr by Freeze

That's the point! :cheer: obviously I was talking music in general about when it doesn't click with me. as I stated earlier that I haven't fully listen yet to Pavel entry and I don't wanna listen to tonight...because of headache I might not like it...maybe when I'm okay will sound better.

Anything would sound better with a clear head I guess :kink: Especially this one :lol:
March 27, 201015 yr variation of birds <3 it's not meant to be catchy and fun but to create this crazy mood. i almost want to do a video project to it perhaps. good song is good. bj is full of silly people. best knife song is we share our mother's health tho, sorry y'all.
March 27, 201015 yr Dalisska has just voted! Very Strong semi imo, I love every song in my top ten :wub: There are some really nice songs that would have easily gotten points in a different contest but they missed out here :( Edited March 27, 201015 yr by Sudowoodo
March 27, 201015 yr Variation Of Birds actually made me laugh after I'd got over the fact that it was going to keep screeching for 6 minutes. I was chuckling to myself, I must admit. Hats off to you for sending it though, it's certainly a very different entry.
March 28, 201015 yr After a third listen of my top 10, Liechenstaaan have voted! My top 3 are amazing. :wub:
