if I don't do "Firework", I might try "Whip My Hair".thought about "Black & Yellow" but I'm not really sure what I'd do with it.

Hats off to anyone who does cover it - it's basically some guy going "black and yellow black and yellow black and yellow black and yellow" for 3 minutes.

(lol the American Now! Vol. 1 was in 1998 and features Flagpole Sitta, Mmm Bop, Sex & Candy, Karma Police, and, uh, Barbie Girl. This would also be pretty funny obv)
this thread has made me realise how little modern pop music I'm actually familiar with. Guess I got old.

Oh yeah, mine is done, too. Well, it was done weeks ago but I'm still contemplating swapping a siren synth sound for a crumhorn after the medieval music workshop at Lewes Castle last weekend. Should we pop them on Soundcloud and just add them to a group or something?

Broken Record (Madrigal Breakdown mix):
http://soundcloud.com/karendtregaskin/broken-record-madrigal
No idea what sound quality that is at (probably pretty poor) let me know if you'd rather an AIFF version and I'll toss it on YSI.
(My original demo is on that Soundcloud, too, with the metallic siren synth and sounding a lot more like the original but Lex actually suggested taking it off - I'd scored out a string quartet and it was occupying exactly the same sonic space, too busy)
