*laughing* The contest wasn't rigged. It was very poorly designed. Instead of having an "Eve Idol" contest, the DJs could just as well have said on the air "Whoever can get the most people to send me an EVEmail in the next 5 minutes gets 1 bilion ISK." That's what happened for EVE Idol; talent was unrelated to the contest - the winner got all his corp to vote for him; when the results were announced the Eve Radio channel rioted because no one actually listening to Eve Radio voted for him, and to be honest...his act was terrible. In fact, I auditioned for Eve Idol in the first place on the strength of having heard his "Eve Idol winning entry" from last year and thought to myself, "Wow...easy money coming my way."
Oh how bitter a loser we are, Curzon. I was perfectly happy to keep it civil when your childish whining was limited to eve-mail, but then you bring it to EVE-O.
I think it's wonderful how you feel you can freely drag other people through the mud. Quit your childish whining. At the time of the contest, you were in a corp of over 1100 people. I simply told my alliance-mates that I'd be on EVE Radio for the competition, and that they should listen in. You make this sound like some evil master plan to usurp your rightful place as the EVE Idol winner, but it's just not the case, and you're making some rather sweeping assumptions. Nobody from the EVE Radio channel voted for me? There were more than 350 people in that channel when my voting came up. My first EVE Idol entry actually brought new listeners from MC to EVE Radio, and I wouldn't be surprised if this one did, too, provided your petulance hasn't turned them off.
As for slagging the quality of this entry, I freely admit that it wasn't my best work. This time, I think my semifinals entry was my best. Another fact you conveniently ignore is that, in order to get to the finals, I had to be passed forward by the judges not once, but twice, so get off your high horse.
Last week I made a thread in this very forum with my semifinals entry (Baby Got Loot), which received all sorts of praise during and after the contest. I specifically invited you, in that thread, to add your work, which I quite enjoy, to it, but instead you start your own thread, and go on a spree of self-aggrandizement at my expense.
You've challenged me to a 1v1, stating that you'd rather settle it in space, but the simple fact is that I don't take 1v1 offers.
Get over yourself. Your music is good, and clever, but this slanderous crap is just making me lose even more respect for you. STFU.

This is the kind of stuff they show on TV. Except normally it's two *****y girls fighting.
I don't honestly care who is right in this. I haven't heard Crovan's singing, someone link me, but I have heard Curzon's and as a singer myself I can provide the following review:
Your pitch is excellent. I hesitate to say "nearly perfect" because I am not that familiar with the songs, but you didn't ever seem to have any issues with the notes.
Your timing seems a bit off, usually a half of a beat or less, but distracting regardless.
Your intonation is okay, but it does bother me a bit. I can never quite nail what someone's doing to make their intonation sound better or worse, but it doesn't sound as clean as it should, methinks.
Keep in mind of course that I'm not claiming superiority in any such category. You definitely have me on pitch, which is the most important (and most obvious/easiest part for non-enthusiasts to understand) but I consider myself to have excellent timing and good intonation on everything but my high notes.

Edited by: Jex Jast on 23/03/2007 00:05:05 If this one turns out to be as entertaining as your others I think I'm putting you on my iPod.
Update: I ****in love this. This one (Dax is back) was fantastic. Be proud you're going on my iPod NOW. I don't know how else to say it, this is friggin great! I mean, the non-rap parts didn't sound too good, but the rap more than made up for it...if I had any less control I would have screamed "**** yeah!" about fifteen times during your newest song.
If you can sing in falsetto, though, I would like to hear a MJ cover, I feel like it'd be amazing.
Will someone please link me to a song or two by this Corven guy who won last time? I want to hear if he's even close to Dax...

That's cute, CD. Always good to have fans.
Well we're about to see whether I stay his fan...it's all about how YOU do in the song I'm currently downloading.
I'm assuming it's a rap, a parody of Baby Got Back. Do you have any...musical songs...with notes? For two reasons:
1) Rap is great, and takes a lot of skill, but I want to hear you SING! 2) You'll be hard put to match up to Curzon's raps in cleverness.

I gotta agree, as far as your rapping skills go you're right up there with Dax. I have to be honest, the lyrics were quite clever but not enough to elevate you above him.
Now I need to hear you sing.
By the way, where can I find info about Eve Idol? I doubt I'll actually do it but I'm interested to check it out...

Originally by: Curzon Dax I've taken the liberty of posting Crovan's EVE IDOL winning entry on the first page if you'd like to hear what his singing sounds like.
It's funny but I'll be honest, Dax you've got much better pitch than Crovan.
Intonation is fine. Timing is fine. But the most important part, pitch, is not up to scratch. Also, your slides from one note to another are rough. I see room for improvement, there is however potential for that improvement too.
Practice up, join a choir, you'll learn a hell of a lot. I have. It's amazing to learn what information you didn't know existed.

I agree Dan but come on even Devs can't be considered impartial. You heard Dax..."And then, there was this Dev, who liked his friends so gave them free tech II BPO's..."
:-D Sorry CCP, you will never live down the fact that one of your devs gave free T2 BPOs to an alliance...but by now it's no longer an outrage, it's a running joke. And though some people might still be upset, I've let it blow by and laughed. And it's funny to hear about it in songs now.

Haha, first time I've ever NOT been offended when someone made a homosexuality remark on the forums. Well done, I actually laughed.
And for the record no, I'm not ***. I'm not black either but I still get offended at "the n word". Same goes for all profiling.

Originally by: Curzon Dax Tune into Eve Radio (www.eve-radio.com) today at 2300 GMT! I'll be releasing my newest track, the Carebear Edition of "Baby Got Back" called "Rats Got Loot!"
Also, join channel Eve Radio. :)
Is this in any way a parody or mockery of Crovan? ----- :::Need to be cleaned:::

Originally by: BLAIYNE Oh by the way Curzon - thanks very much!
I was walking around the house the other day when my girlfriend overheard me singing "Battle Of The E-Peens" to myself.
So then I had to explain what an e-peen was, and why I was singing about one, and about Eve Online, and Eve Idol...you get the picture.
Then I got "that look" - you know the one, head slightly to one side, one eyebrow raised slightly, and a half smile. That's when I knew I knew I was in trouble.
So since then, all her friends have been asking me how big my e-peen was. It's pretty bloody big actually, but still not the type of question you want shouted at you in the check out line in Tescos.
So thanks Curzon for making my life hell for the next 20 years or so!
Two questions for ya:
1) Why is it bad? It's funny and I think you could make it a quite enjoyable experience.
2) Can you sing well? ----- :::Need to be cleaned:::
