Songland

So far, so good. It's pretty cool listening to the before and afters.

As someone who has always loved music, singing, and wordsmithing, this show is a breath of fresh air! I love the creative breakdowns of each song and how the producers give feedback on the strengths and weaknesses. Other reviews have criticized the producers changing too much, but most people don't understand that every song sung by their favorite artist isn't written by them. The three producers on this show are there because they've already proved they know how to make hits. I also appreciate the songwriters understanding when they go in that changes will be made to fit the particular artist they're "selling" their song to. Anyone who enjoys watching creative people coming together to elevate their art should check out this show!

I think it's such a great show to provide other song writers opportunity to sing songs for great artists but also gives us a behind the scene of how songs are produced and glimpse of how long it takes.

Honestly, I don't think Songland will do very well at all, but it's a great concept for a show! Shows like American Idol, The Voice, America's Got Talent, etc. always get flak for being too overproduced, exploiting some of their acts, and even accusations of fixed results. However, this show is extremely laid back and just shows the process of aspiring songwriters trying to make the next big hit. Nothing more to it than that. I'm not one of those people whose whole life revolves around music (and I DEFINITELY don't write songs), but even I was interested in seeing the process of how hit songs are written and edited until they're just right. If you want to be a songwriter or are just a fan of music in general, this is absolutely the show for you. That said, I think people that aren't super musical should also give this a watch. It's a lot more intriguing than you'd expect.

What a great chance to see this side if the music industry and hear music from multiple genres.

Great balance.
