I don't hate them, I just really dislike that particular brand of a capella.

link me a brand of a capella you do like, I'm curious

90% of their output is novelty covers of pop songs

Plus they sound like singing automatons, devoid of any emotion

are you not aware that a capella chorus was in the driving seat for the evolution of Medieval, Renaissance, and Baroque music?

Apologies for the lateness, at a meet. Also sorry for the uninspired choice, Im at a meet. I guess it is inspired because its happy sounding and its a good meet. Ignore the pot references, we aren't stoned here.
Mostly retired. Unless you ask or it's something interesting.

Sorry, but if you're going to troll a contest and take a slot away from someone else, at least troll in a creative way.

I was more annoyed at the chicken song, two contests ago(?). At least "Never Gonna Give You Up" is... It has a trolling connotation which wasn't present in its creation... You remove the trolling and it is still a listenable song. You remove the trolling of the chicken song and you're left with no song. I'd still rather listen to any of the cut entries though.
