Thanks for posting the links. I watched/listened to all of them, just to scrutinize in regards to this topic. I think if any of the writers of these songs would have posted them here for comments/feedback before pitching, I would have given a thumbs up. IMO, "Remind Me" gets my biggest vote all the way around for continuity, but not for that alone. Maybe none of these songs will make it into MY list of all time favorites, but they are decent songs. These people deserve success, from the performers to the musicians, to the writers, to the producers and publishers who recognized why these songs had hit potential verses the other songs they were faced with at the same time they were sorting through to select these. All the hits and classics from days gone by, way back when, well they weren't the only songs out there at that time. There was also "crap" out there way back then... and much of what was out there sounded alike way back then, too. I love a lot of the old stuff in many genres, but I get a little tired of it, and WANT to hear something new and fresh. I'd be disappointed if all the new stuff coming out sounded like all the old stuff I've heard all my life. Yes, the music industry has changed. The way music is brought into being is nothing like it used to be, so I'm learning. That's a shame, and makes my dream much more difficult. But, it doesn't mean that worthy material isn't being put out now-a-days, imo. Now, a lot of what comes out today is "crap", I agree... but not all of it. And I still maintain that not all of it was good, even way back when.

That's just my 2 cents.
