Big Fat Idea Machine (lyrics, album, fan, members, quotes)

TheBig3 · 08-27-2008, 10:16 AM

So I was reading some lyrics today and I wished we did something more around here with looking at them. I was thinking instead of album wars we could do lyrics wars where we pitted two lyricists against one another using 3 to 5 quotes as the example to judge and then other posters could just vote on what they liked.

Anyone think this is worth while?

Could work, but a sh*tty artist with a few one-liners could theoretically do just as well as Bob Dylan in a battle like that.

thats fair though, I mean if someones is as big of a fan of that ****ty artist as someone else then they should have their day in court.

We could do brackets if we wanted.

Maybe have like a vicarious battle between the artists, via us MB members. One user posts a lyric from one artist, another user is challenged to one-up that with a better lyric from another artist, or something like that.
