This is kind of exciting:). I entered 5 songs at the beginning of the month. One thing I noticed is that is makes a huge difference what genre you choose! I made a couple of switches on the 2nd day of the month to try to better match the few genres my music could conceivably belong to. I actually entered one of my songs into Indie Pop because I already had songs in Acoustic, Folk, and Singer-Songwriter (Male), and I was shocked at how well it is doing so far, even though it is most definitely NOT the kind of thing you'd hear on the radio (it does have a chorus/hook, but it's 8 minutes long and tells the tale of Agincourt;)). I also put a song in New Age/World for lack of any other viable genre. At least I tried to evoke an early Native American vibe with a flute/whistle in the arrangement (that one is about the Lost Colony of Roanoke...called "50 Miles into the Main."
Anyway, here are today's results:
-"Son of the Sea" 143rd in Singer/songwriter (Male) -"Agincourt" 150th in Indie Pop -"Band of Brothers" 107th in Folk -"50 Miles Into the Main" 99th in New Age/World -"Everything that Matters" 173rd in Acoustic
Based on the number of entries in these genres, all of my positions are in the 70th percentile or better:). That makes me feel better about having only one song in the double-digits;).
