Assuming they're named after the Barclay Brothers of sark ie the very unpleasant billinaires who own the Telegraph - and if this is the case, then anyone who take the p*ss out of that pair deserve success!
THis will pay off. Nobody likes middlemen. i'd rather pay my fans to listen than to fucking Wal-Mart or whatever Mtv to run my ads n shit. MAn i'm fully behind this concept. i mean it got them attention it's a success! and you guys talking all your shit there is nothing you can say that they didn't expect to hear. so save your breath.
This is ridiculous and completely goes against what music is and what it represents. Music is an art form, one that's meant to be heard, not sold. That's what's wrong with music now a days. Once money becomes and equation, artists that were amazing at one time go the way of main stream and instead of staying true to what made them popular, they try to maintain that popularity by listening to the media moguls tell them what to do.
This could be quite a good track, but i think the music needs totally redoing to suite a more commercial market, maybe a calvin harris style remix could sell it :P. Just needs a lift with brighter sounds. its a bit dull at the moment. good luck :-)
1:22 Accompanied by a droning non-chord tone of 2nd not resolved very well by the following verse. A new low for music? I'm glad it sounds "so so" otherwise I'd be a little worried that hard work is a waste of time.
Just another stunt. Worth a try but the tune just isn't anything special. I'm not a fan of 80's music so I'm trying to think whether this would appeal to 80's fans. My theory is that the 80's music appeals because it reminds people of a certain age about their youth and not because it sounded that great. Anyway thumbs up for the stunt but thumbs down for the execution. Wasted opportunity.
The hype seems to be working. Clever move. Doubt anyone actually will get any money; it'll be easy to say to people "sorry but it's all gone, but thanks for listening".
As for the song, I actually don't mind it - kind of Kate Bush-esque on the vocals and it's certainly different from a lot of the more formulaic pop. But not my usual thing, personally.
Reminds me a lot of Claudia Brucken and the band Act from the 1980's (more rock leaning than the hi tech though). Top marks for the publicity stunt, it definitely worked, seen a lot of press about this..
£27? Fuck it. I'd rather have Sirs David and Frederick Barclay sing to me acapella while I had to read the Telegraph than listen to this over-produced under-written shite again.

Stay true to who you are. Make money that way.

Cool idea for a music promotion... but it smacks of bad 80's pop. I wish you luck finding an audience. I suggest you start in the 45+ Brit's market.

they borrow $40,000+ to start the band, $2,700 for a shitty promotion, and yet, they spend about $4.50 on the video clip, lyrics and recording?
