90% of their output is novelty covers of pop songs

Plus they sound like singing automatons, devoid of any emotion

Average contest. Weak ending, with those last six songs.

I always enjoy India's entries because they're often legitimately very esoteric in ways that other songs entered here aren't. Like the Tamil soundtrack entry from a few contests ago was great.

Personally, 99% of my joy from Song Contest comes from when people post their personal ratings before the votes come in and I see that people have said nice words about my song because it means we have something great in common

I'll just leave you to your 3:30 of intro-verse-chorus-verse-chorus-bridge-slightlydifferentchorus-outro with generic four-chord arrangement comfort zone then

Yes you will. We don't have to cater to
your
tastes in
our
entries. There are plenty of pretentious unhappy music wankers on the internet, why not go start a Song Contest with them?

Oh, so that's why my 94 minute art rock progressive avant-garde dubstep entries are always changed to last month's Best New Tracks from Pitchfork. I was wondering what was up with that, couldn't find anything about it in the rules

I don't think anyone here values winning a internet points contest with no rewards over the happiness gained from bonding with someone over a piece of music you both really like.

I never said anything about winning or points.

Why else would people cater to others' tastes instead of posting stuff they like?
