Sounds like vocals are by Mystical :) However, let's forget that :) Pop tune. Repetitive drumline, pop arrangement. I'd be short at this tune - everything is ok. Yes, just ok - chord, panning, volumes, fx, arrangement. Samples are cool. Vocals could be better. Overally - veteran technique and hopeless pop sound.

How funny start ! It's a good idea to include full lyrics to your song, but not all guys can pretend to be a singer. Be really carefull about tuning. Secondly, as you'd got to make it fit in one mega max, you had to decrease the quality for most of the samples. I'm sure the drums are not so dynamic than they were originaly. Pay attention about not distracting the listener all the time with (futile) arrangements. The rap bridge is excellent, the ending too. Great technique and method.

The voice needs tuning. Try doing small pitch shifts within the song to achieve correct tuning ("plant" for the word "Transplant" is an example; it sound sharp). Nice idea with the radio station changes at the start. Not particularly original but well implemented. You did a good job to fit all those lyrics into the size restriction. Well done overall. Not my sort of music but still very good.

cute little frame :). the main song is quite good. all the pieces fit well into the speed, especially the great vocals. but the song really could use some variation of the speed somewhere, even just a stop and restart, breakdown, or some other rest from the assulting tempo. the lyrics are a bit garbled, tho that's prolly somewhat intentional. but it would also be nice to be able to hear them better over the rest of the music. overally a strong piece.

OK, now I can go on and on about how pleased I am with this song. This song is THE BEST one that I have judged so far. Very professionally done, everything was done almost perfectly. The maximum # of channels was 30, which was a good, and overall... I loved this one! I only have one complaint, and I believe that this "killed" the REAL potential of this song. The vocals. The lyrics were fantastic! So any mention I make to "vocals", is only revering the "voice" behind it, not the lyrics. The lyrics where great, but the singer was not quite as good as I hoped fore. They could have been better. I'm sure the composer knew this, because the vocals were too quiet (my explanation was to hide the vocals). The worst part of the vocals is the harmonics. In general, the vocals were off pitch (at times), and some parts where even off rythmn. I know the composer spent a great deal of time on this song, but if he/she spent a little more time on the vocals (or got a better singer), this would have been an absolutely fantastic song. Now, I'm not trying to discount this song at all, it is a @#$% load a lot better than my entery, but the vocals is the only low-point of this song that I could point out. The sound quality was a little low, but it is understandable due to the 1,000,000 byte limit. No other real low points. Other than that, this song ROCKS!!! The composer did a great job on this song, and it was a pleasure listening to it.
