Yes, well done! But I'm not shure that it is BritPop.

AKA You Try Figuring Out How To Do A Brit Pop Song When You Don't Know Anyone British
So I haven't been active in a while. :( I have been much busier lately than I ever expected, what with so many tests coming up and my upcoming trip to Yale University for a huge competition that I've basically been studying a year for. I owe tons of people tons of stuff and I just haven't been able to keep up. I'M SORRY NEWGROUNDS I'LL COME BACK FOR YOU SOON
(also i'm really lazy but let's gloss over that shall we)
In the meantime, here's a song that I was thinking about doing for my dad's birthday, but eventually decided against because I suck at using any moderately acoustic instruments. It's a cover of The Beatles' <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hlw4B2Bj2og">Birthday</a>, and you can definitely hear that the production isn't that good on this one. Still, I think the prog-like composition is pretty decent. It was a pretty fun song to cover! Although, lately, it feels like everything I listen to has a basic blues chord progression. I wonder why?

Thanks! Well, it's not exactly brit pop, but it's a cover of a brit pop song, and that's about as close as I'm going to get if I want to complete all the genres in the Newgrounds Audio Portal. Thanks for listening and the triple review!
Well, this is gonna be my alarm now :P Nice!
Interesting song to make a cover of. Just curious, is it (was it) someones birthday?
I see you're getting further in your jorney of genres, which is great :D!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11111111111
Even more, you've totally LunacyEcho:ed the piece XD
Lol, that organ sound sounds so cheap, and yet it fits this piece perfectly :p
The bass work is as fine as it always seems to be in your tracks. It's great that this track loops, and does so so smoothly too! Well done ;)
That's all I have to say really...
Good job ;D

=> birthday =>
Well, it was the song that I was originally planning to write for my dad's b-day, but gave up because it wasn't sounding like I wanted (the song I eventually wrote was, in fact, Heartsteps).
=> genres =>
I dunno if this is really "further". It's just a prog-timed, synth-instrumented, organically-rhythmed type of thing I always almost sometimes never do.
=> organ =>
Yay cheesy default sounds! Actually, that pretty much defines every instrument I've ever used in any song ever.
=> loops smoothly =>
whooo approved by the master
Thanks for the review! Back to the army... :( JUST ONE MONTH LEFT! YOU CAN MAKE IT!
pretty bouncy, love the bassline especially.
now go update your bandcamp ;3
Yeah, can't say I know much about brit pop either...this is fun and upbeat and cute, though. Sounds like it'd be good for a videogame...kind of has that bouncy vibe, y'know? The instruments are cool, and the drums really help with the transitions. It loops well, although it's not really a structurally complete piece. It might be good for a game menu or something. I think you should do more with this, though! In the meantime, keep it up! Sorry I haven't been checking out a lot of your stuff recently. I'm swamped with stuff for school, college apps, key club, you name it! D:> I'll have some more free time soon...I hope. ;)

=> videogame =>
You know, I never thought of it that way. Then again, game developers probably shouldn't put songs with weird time signatures on their games, for fear of making musicians lose their train of thought. :P
=> drums =>
I think I tried making my drums more complicated here. I've been critiqued in the past about how my drums seem pretty boring, which is pretty disappointing for me. I tried making no two bars of drums the same (yay kick drums), and went to town on those transitions. Glad they worked!
=> swamped =>
Hey, no sweat! There's nothing wrong with being really busy. I'm pretty busy as well, so I'd hate to imagine the amount of work you're going through. :(
I've never heard of Key Club before! Thanks for bringing it to my attention! In the meantime, just focus on your stuff. You come first. Thanks for reviewing!
