Song: Google It – The Smart Phone Song

Reviewer: John Walradt

Positive Comments: Oh my gosh! Here comes the Jetsons in phoney phone spacey techno land in a contemporary message set with a retro style pop tune you might find in 60s commercials! That’s delightfully hard to beat! What a setting for the mindless techno conveniences of the 2020s versus the yesteryear of the 60s through the 90s! The rollicking piano and vocal harmonies are fun and corny, and you’ll wonder whatever happened to those days when people survived without being so networked!

Constructive Comments: Throw out the phone? Laptop and computer games, too? People suffer withdrawal when faced with something like that! What happened to society? Yep, we really are in the brave new world! Nicely done job on the tune!

Broadjam Artist: Janet Murphy
Song: Out of Step

Reviewer: Peter Kendall

Positive Comments: Don’t usually listen to the blues, but looking for outside inspiration. This was great!I was so curious how the vocals were going to get my attention with the loud intro – with a whisper – fantastic! And it kept my attention all the way through.

Constructive Comments: I have no comments to post here – I really dig the song as is.

Broadjam Artist: Ante Novaselic
Song: Better Days

Reviewer: John Walradt

Positive Comments: Melancholy, pleading, and hopeful, this song really sets a mood that can fit well in just about any production. The orchestration is pretty, not obtrusive, and works beautifully in arrangement. It sounds like it could be a sweeping pop song for a movie. Vocals are emotional and convincing.

Constructive Comments: It could be interesting to hear how a version without the male voices would be. Lyrics are very simple, but for movies and entertainment, general lyrics like those would likely be what they would look for rather than something too descriptive, which I can get into too much. Really a nice job overall.

Broadjam Artist: MGB
Song: ANSWER MAN

Reviewer: Riq Turner

Positive Comments: I hear ZZ Top and Joe Walsh. Nice company to be in. Some nice guitar playing and tones.

Constructive Comments: I think the drums could be louder and have some pop. Lyrically it’s a bit repetitive. Maybe try to hone it down a bit and give more variety in the choruses. Best of luck.
