I would have to say that Mike Rice and Matt Reardon composed a song of true exellence. The lyrics are cleverly fitting and I laugh when I hear the song. I think I will listen to it again. Good Job.

I listened to Tim M. i like that the lyrics were humorous and how it flowed very well. And the project was ok, but we should be able to chose more folk songs.

I enjoyed listening to Tim Mikulski’s performance of the soon to be new hit song on Broadway “Hey”. With all the junk being writen today, Tim’s song has grabed my heart away with it’s outstanding lyrics and classic American rythum.

I found mike rice’s and readon’s project riveting, filled with fun characters and classic American Tale. The project was great

1. I thoroughly enjoyed the musical workings and idiosyncrasies of the song composed by Matthew Reardon and Mike Rice. Twas a musical masterpiece, with adroit note placement and lyric structure. I believe that the deployment of the notes to harmonize with the main melody was phenomenal. It truly made the song fantastic and was the reason why i enjoyed it to the extent at which i did. Alas, there were a few minor issues in my humble opinion. There was one instances where the lyrics did not quite flow with the melody of the song. On the second to last measure, these amazing lyricists made a rookie mistake. They broke drank into two syllables, and i do not believe that it flowed extremely well with the song. However, this song was an immensely delightful to my ears and these two young and prodigious composers have a bright future ahead of them in the field of music.

2. I liked this project because it was fun and you could express yourself a little bit more than others by being able to write your own lyrics and possibly write your own song in general. I did not like, however, that one of the options was We Shall Overcome. I did not like this because it was extremely easy to write lyrics to and we also did it in class, so it was not as difficult to complete. Thenceforth, i recommend continuing this project in the future, but possibly not offering that song as a choice, maybe offering a different, more complex song as an option.

1) I read and listened to Timothy Donald Blaze Mikulski’s composition this lovely evening, and i personally thought it to be spectacular. I revere his clever lyrics and enjoyed his use of imagination.

2) This project was an excellent stimulation of our musical senses and I thoroughly appreciated the opportunity to exercise our composing abilities and I do believe that you should continue with this project.

I listened to everybodies songs, but my favorite was Abby’s. I enjoyed the whole piece because it wasn’t over done. Also, the ending was perfect. The chord was really sublime. – Vocab ; ) -

I listened to Timothy Mikulski’s song. I found the lyrics to be blissfully eminent, and I liked how he didn’t exclude presumably hispanic people from his lyrics, like some people did. I also enjoyed how he did not feel the need to rhyme. In addition, I found myself getting sucked into remarkable the lives of Pedro, Rondo, and Pedro’s cat. However, I would recommend adding some chords and other notes to isolate his song from other more bland songs. Overall, Timothy’s song was a paradigm of harmony that should be diligently followed by less musically inclined pupils. I really liked this project, for it was fun to test my musical ability by spicing up a song composed of single notes. However, I think it should be mandatory that people add chords, because many people were essentially just copying notes onto a website. On the whole, awesome project…..

1.) I listened to Tim’s song and it was very good. The lyrics were funny and added to the greatness of the composition. However, they did not really make much sense.
I very much enjoyed this project and I do not think that anything should be changed so it can be loved by future generations.

I listened to to Abby’s song and I thought it was superb. I loved the flute and trompone accompaniment and changing the lyrics a little so it wasn’t a complete copy. The only thing I dislike about this song is that there is little of a flute part.
