I think every time I go to critique some one's song in the MP3 forum, I need go back and re-read Harriet's post here first. I am a firm believer that constructive criticism is important, but I think it is very useful to find ONE good thing about any tune and mention that first.

If I can't find at least ONE good thing to say, I'll pass on a critique. This is hard though. As an engineer by education and a programmer by profession, I have been trained to deal with problems. Sure, I work on solutions, but problems rule the day. Although I don't consider myself a negative person, it sometimes is much easier to point out what's wrong, then find what is right.
