__________________________________________________________

Here is another edition of our "FACE THE MUSIC". This is what we need from the panel/members.

YOU will grade the song/artist in FOUR categories on a scale of 1 TO 5. In each one of the categories you tell us why you gave them the grade that you did (Could be brief or not)

Look at our RANKINGS GRADE CHART to see what each one of the scores mean.

5 BUZZWORTHY: Keep an eye on this group/artist.
4 GOOD: You got my attention, even though the song is not perfect
3 FAIR: Average piece of work
2 POOR: Needs a LOT OF WORK
1 UNACCEPTABLE: Should Not have gotten in the studio to waste our time
___________________________________________________________

A) HIT FACTOR/COMMERCIAL

B) MUSICIANSHIP

C) VOCALS

D) SUBJECT MATTER/LYRICS

SUMMARY/CLOSING ARGUMENT:

A) HIT FACTOR/COMMERCIAL 4

B) MUSICIANSHIP 4

C) VOCALS 5

D) SUBJECT MATTER/LYRICS 3

SUMMARY/CLOSING ARGUMENT: I like the song. Since PHANTOMS is not fully active in the live circuit it will take a lot of promotion for the song to reach the hit status. However it has hit ingredients

Islanfaces, the line "I'M SORRY" is very catchy. The repetition of that chorale does the trick for me. This is the kind of "hook" that makes every song a hit.

A song does not have to be musically sophisticated or good to be popular.

PHANTOMS is smart to use the "DONT YOU KNOW I LOVE U" formula to make that song.

Well, that is my opinion.
Very Happy

HIT FACTOR--- 4 ........This song has alot of potential especially if it get the necessary play time on the radio

MUSICIANSHIP---4......Those guys did a decent job on the song.

VOCALS----4.......i would put Kino a step below of Pipo and yet he still maintains his status as an excellent vocalist.

LYRICS---3.....The subject matter can be better. Needs alittle work.

This is a good song and this is a preview of things to come, i can't wait for the final product to come out. Good job!

A couple of suggestion i would like to make!

1) The beginning of the song needs to be changed from English to Creole...The English part does not flow too well with the song.

2)Refrain Kino from saying "YEAH" too much......It's annoying!

A) HIT FACTOR/COMMERCIAL: 2, nothing spectacular

B) MUSICIANSHIP: 4 apparently they did a great job

C) VOCALS: 4 Kino is excellent

D) SUBJECT MATTER/LYRICS:0, come on now man this nothing to jump

SUMMARY/CLOSING ARGUMENT: The corny intro with Jensen and the musical content which is average at the most the song just does hit me.

___________________________________________________________

A) HIT FACTOR/COMMERCIAL - (3)

B) MUSICIANSHIP -(4)

C) VOCALS -(3) The woman who starts screaming at the end of the last "I'm sorry" is not needed...it messes up the song!!! When Kino says 'WOYOYO..." it does not go well with the song either...HAS TO GO
Exclamation The woman screaming at the end is unecessary as well!!!

D) SUBJECT MATTER/LYRICS -(4)

SUMMARY/CLOSING ARGUMENT: This song has potential but it is ALL OVER the place. Take out that woman who is screaming and the unecessary comments...it kills the song!!!

I love the part when Kino says "gade non medame kimbe nom ou pi du Smile ....niccccccceeeee!!!! I also love the guitar sound in the middle of the song Wink !!!!

All I have to say Phantoms is FOCUS FOCUS FOCUS Exclamation This song has potential, take out all the other stuff out and you should be fine...you guys kind off lost yourselves in this song Exclamation

D) SUBJECT MATTER/LYRICS -3

SUMMARY/CLOSING ARGUMENT: It's been a while since I've enjoyed a Phantom song. While this song didn't knock my socks off, it's definitely worthy of a buzz. Gin bel ti ploge ki ka fet anba kout keyboard yo. Kino shows why he's always been and always will be an absolute superstar! Neg la son original!!! Respect!!!
