To Cerulean Blue, I never really liked it, as it got dull too quickly and the words just blend together.  Simply put, it's boring when you just hang on one pitch for so long and then give a single high note, just to repeat it again.  I have no clue why my brother enjoys it so much, but it drives me mad sometimes.  At least it's clear what pitch the notes are (as if you couldn't tell after 13 beats of a repeated note).

However, the notes aren't really focused on a single pitch, unlike Cerulean Blue.  There are a ton of in-between half-pitches that can't be programmed in to the game, and to try to put a pitch to them would likely confuse the player (not to mention the creator).  If it would be made, it would have to be pitchless, like ERBoE: Iron Will Vs. Zecora.

Oh look.  Smilley replied while I was writing this.  I guess I should respond to him too, so he doesn't feel left out.

I think they were more or less generalizing on things when they described Creatives, not necessarily being completely thorough.  You see pony art and fanfiction all over the place, but the games are a rather small chunk of all of the Creative bronydom (compared to the amount of art and fanfiction that can be pumped out in a single day).

Although a very big credit to the brony fandom, a lot of the singing from this isn't really pitch-based (kind of like rap, which is very similar to just spoken words, just put to a rhythm).  It's simply not very usable for anything like this.

I might recommend putting the lyrics in a code block next time.  It makes it a lot easier to scroll through, and doesn't take up as much space.

The underlining on my screen is nearly invisible, as it's only about two pixels thick on a similar blue background.  That, and my eyes have cut off the bottoms of letters since I was little.  Yeah, that's probably it...

It doesn't really matter enough to worry about.  As you said, as long as it's in the final repository, it'll be fine.  It's looking very much like this song is complete by now, and it leaves me happy.

I see how I missed it.  I don't usually encounter linked words at the start of the sentence.  It really isn't noticeable, as there's only a small difference between a link and the regular typeface.  You might want to make your links a little more clear to see.

Now all we need is a background image and a cover image.

Edit: I went and gave it a shot, getting 8840 points.  It works well, and the video lines up perfectly.  Well done!

That sounds good as well.  I'll get them out as soon as I can.

I could be mistaken, or the thread could've been deleted.  I could swear I've seen it before though, just not in a single post like this, where it undoubtedly belongs.

This is among my absolute favorites.  It's just so good :3

I'm pretty sure I've seen this suggested somewhere, but I think it was a massive multi-song thread or something.  This is by no means one of my favorites, but it's singable darnit!
#51
Didn't know there was a PMV of this one.  Interesting.
#52
I'm pretty sure this has been suggested somewhere around 5 times now.

Edit: It's already a WIP song.  There's no need for it again.

That's what I figured, but I wanted to make sure.

Please stick with 1 song per thread, please.  It makes it a ton easier to keep everything organised.

Agreed Psychic.  It's annoying to pick one song out of 8 with the current format.

I'm not usually into this kind of music, but this song is a definite exception.  This is a must.

It's not one I would add, as there's some kind of faint high pitched squeal that really bothers my ears (and therefore, I didn't listen to the whole thing as my ears were starting to hurt from it).  Some of the words are kind of hard to make out too.

I really should have phrased that better.  By "flat", I meant the opposite of sharp (in terms of pitch), not dull and repeating (in terms of style).  I start the song matching the sung pitch (according to other software), and Singstar registers my voice 3 steps sharp (estimated, as I did try singing flatter and finally matched the pitch about that far away from where it should be).  It hurts my brain trying to transpose the entire song down like that, and it really makes the song unplayable for me.

As to the list, I'll get to work on it as soon as I can.  I'm just wondering what part of the forums such a list would belong in.

I said it particularly because of my experience with Eurobeat Brony's "Luna (Dream Mode)", where it has overlapping notes (I don't care how good you are, singing 2 different pitches at once is pretty much impossible) and changes lines before you get the chance to finish the one before (which seems to result in even more overlapping notes).  There are a few others that seem a bit screwy (like Sweetie Bot's Big Race, where the lines seems to be quite flat), but I'm a bit busy at the moment to find them all.  I'll probably compile a list of screw-ups at some point, or try to rectify them myself.
