The song that instantly came to my mind was "Not Fair" by Kate Havnevik, which shows no hesitation in chucking small string ensembles all over the place. This = a good thing.

While I think it's terribly gorgeous, it took me more than a few listens to get into it, so I don't know if it would have been suitable for something like the Pop Open. I don't know how well-known she is, either.

(I still think Injustice was easier than Religion...time will tell, I guess)

I would have killed to be in Injustice. (Though not anyone in Poptimists.)

Religion strikes me as being v easy but then maybe I've listened to a disproportionate amount of pop stars with Catholic guilt. Injustice never struck me as that hard either though!

I found it hard! in fact, I'm changing my song to something that I think some peopel will know but not THAT many and I think lots of people will LOVE IT.

I found it hard, too, but I probably wasn't as broad-minded as I could've been (actually I think my track could have gone into any group).

Last night I ran across something I thought would've been perfect for Injustice, although it escapes me at the moment. There's always Metallica's "And (In)justice for All," though... :)

That's definitely been a concern for me... I'm pretty sure my track could've been in Love or Sex. It just happens to be in Passion.

I'd have picked the "MTA" by the Kingston Trio in the hope that not too many of you would have known it. Charlie brings a dime to the train but you pay when you get off and they'd just raised the fair to fifteen cents, so he couldn't get off the train. So he rides forever, like the Flying Dutchman or something. (Wouldn't have won the round, but would have amused people.)
