Don't worry, I'm sure you sing fine, We won't judge you. (I mean we will, but not in that way). i'd do it if it were just instruments, no vocals. actually, that's a great idea for another competition....

Consider this my audition. Me singing in front of 500+ people a song about keeping someone in a cage until they love you (an original of mine) With a little surprise in the middle for you. You're welcome in advance.

Dude I'll totally do this!!! ...Can we do some crazier themes than Idol? Like original songs and mashups? Thanks for tagging me. As long as there's a Kelly Clarkson week and a Katy Perry week, I'm totes in. (or a katy/kelly mashup week...) I don't write though... I've written one song, but I'm not ready to share it... Is this a weekly thing? Who votes? How does this work exactly? ... Sorry, I wasn't a part of the last one so I have no clue how this is supposed to work.

Taylor Swift OR Justin Timberlake? Please and thank you. So you only want to do one of them? Ehh I was just kidding, I just rather not cover a Taylor Swift song... I'd be more down with this if we had general themes, I'm not really into the artist thing. If it's a genre, era, etc... It's kind of equal for everyone. At least more so than if there are artist themes; where there would obviously be a polarizing level of advantage depending on who you listen to. I'd be more into R&B, Country, Top 40, 50s, 80s, etc... Maybe artist themes if it's like Whitney, Elvis, Frank Sinatra... But I think to be fair (since not all of us have all the time in the world to sit around and memorize songs), make it so the themes treat everyone fairly and as equally as possible.

How is this supposed to work? each week (2-3 days) you send in a 90 second video by PM of you performing part of a song (although the song must fit the weekly. theme). I will post them all in 1 mega post, and the judges will listen to them, and rank them in order from top to bottom, with commentary of course. Using a point system, whoever has the lowest score must leave Pulse Idol. (Although I may or may not have a wildcard week, we'll see). In case of a tie, or a judge not sending in their scores, Invince will judge. The judges have 1 save, and the last week they may use it is the top 5 performance. Kunt will be your Musical Mentor, he can help recommend songs, and give advise about the song you choose the perform before you send it in. So you only want to do one of them? Ehh I was just kidding, I just rather not cover a Taylor Swift song... I'd be more down with this if we had general themes, I'm not really into the artist thing. If it's a genre, era, etc...

But I think to be fair (since not all of us have all the time in the world to sit around and memorize songs), make it so the themes treat everyone fairly and as equally as possible. Right, I was thinking about this as well. I think doing a general artist may be a disadvantage to some contestants. If it is an artist, I'll try to be sure to make it one that has a variety of songs. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Also, I added a poll, please vote. Should songs be A cappella, or should the instrumental track be allowed?

More general themes also allow for more creative interpretations of those themes by the contestants. #unsolicitedadvice

I'd love this a lot more if Pulse voted AND the judge's ranked, and then you combine the two.

To answer the poll question, I think it should be "anything goes". If you can play an instrument, showcase your talents. If you can't, go without or find a backtrack. To each his/her own...

At least with judges deciding, we can hope they're impartial and honestly judging on talent/creativity/technicalities/etc. If it's up to a vote, it's going to surely end up becoming about who has the most support on Pulse... At least that's what I think, anyway. Edit: I like the formula idea, I'd go 50/50. That seems fair! :)
