    You should've just let me be the impartial judge, and person choosing all the songs to be covered. It would have been great.

    We could have changed the name to "The 80s Cover Contest."

    If I win any week in the future, it will no doubt come down to hilarious pop covers and folk versions of Iron Maiden and Judas Priest.

    every person who doesn't like an acquired taste always seems to think everyone who likes it is faking it. it should be an official fallacy.

    I hope you participate and win at least once, Irene, because I'd love to see the weirdest stuff getting covered. Like opera.

    So this reminds me of something I saw in Wal-Mart earlier toady. I never would have ever imagined to run into this shit in my life. I know some people don't care for Metallica, but I was very tempted to buy this just to see what it's like.

    Has anyone heard this CD?

    Anyone can recommend a decent sequencer for a mac? Used to love cubase when I was on a windows platform, but now I need something mac-compatible. And easily acquired.

    garageband?

    i honestly don't know what to tell you. Garageband is basically a dumbed down cubase that's easy to use and not unbelievably powerful. if you want something more full fledged, go with either cubase or pro tools.

    Garageband doesnt support patches and filters (and I am not sure if it can be rewired to Reason), Cubase on Mac has major issues, from what I heard, and pro tools is $$$... I guess one cant have his cake and eat it too....

    ololz i c whut u did thar, u called opera weird :P

    So wait, the winner of each week picks the song to be covered next week? I didn't see anything about how exactly the songs are selected in the OP, maybe I missed that part?

    Yeah, that's what I suggested. The winner each week selects the song (or songs) for the next week. Although if his or her picks are terrible, they can be vetoed by indignant participants.

    also opera is only weird in this context. :P

    Lower down on the page where they have the "related products" thing, there's a bunch of those Rockabye Baby CDs for all different kinds of bands, like Bob Marley and Pink Floyd. I think it's meant to be a cheesy gag gift for someone who's a fan of those bands. I seriously doubt it was meant to be a serious product. I mean, in order to hold on to the vestiges of my faith in mankind, I have persuaded myself of this notion.

    Speaking of covers, I don't suppose anyone has heard of "Heigh-ho Mozart?" It was an album of Disney songs redone in the style of different classical composers. There was a follow-up album named "Bibidi-bobity Bach." I own both >.>

    There was a great album I found in a junk shop in Japan called "Mosh Pit On Disney". Lots of semi-famous bands (Jimmy Eat World, Reel Big Fish and Andrew W.K.) spring to mind covering Disney songs.
