I'm at a bit of a dilemma here, because I entered 4 songs in 4 different catagories. 2 are doing really well, and 2 are languishing at the bottom of the pile.

What I think, doesn't correlate to what the listeners think.

I think that's the difference. What a musician thinks, doesn't have a great deal of bearing upon what the public thinks.

I think it's a very good tool to seperate yourself from your own pre-concieved and sub-concious views of your own material, and is a good tool in the tool kit to decide which tracks you are going to persue further, and which should be given lesser attention.

We do, after all, write for an audience, and it's a good indicator of what a general audience is looking for in their listening tastes.

I'm quite surprised at my own current rankings, ( good and bad )and personally have different views on the matter, but as a fair system, will take in the opinion of the audience. The same audience who either like or dis-like what we create.
