Well, the premise is that people are leaving this particular song because the climax is placed too late.

Now, B.D. didn't say which song it was, but let's suppose it was "Not Drinking Neither".

Why would people leave instead of listening to the entire song?

One reason might be that he posted it on a couple of sites that have SynthV threads. If I remember correctly, he specifically told people they might be interested in listening because of the spoken part, and not because they were particularly interested in hearing the song.

So after a minute, they'd heard enough to get an idea what the spoken part was, and they left.

That's just a theory though. A music theory. wink

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?
