I back Bungalow completely, here. EIMP, don't let your pity for new folks get in the way of your judgement. Jug/Led reacted in a way that was not becoming of someone seeking criticism for their songs.
When Bungalow took the song apart to show you what he wanted to criticize, he was on the money, in my opinion. This is not a good song, lyrically. You might be able to get away with it if there was an amazing music set to go along with it. But lyrically, this song is nothing spectacular. I have seen worse, yes, but this is very, very mediocre.
Zep. You put it on here to be judged, take these comments in stride. I have put songs on here that I loved and got a suggestion on how to fix lines that I really liked - you don't have to agree with everything everyone says, but don't write someone off. I have also improved my songs based on suggests (and in turn made a change that negatively impacted the song) In this case, it is mutually agreed upon that this song is ridiculously cliche - so it's moving from opinion to fact for all intents and purposes of this forum.
Jug, Zep - you are the ones coming off like douches in this case. So just chill out, do what you want with the advice... but remember, this song and the writer were willingly marched in front of the gun here.
