I'm not a teen any more and when I was I wasn't really aware of what most teens preferred. I have a song I can do two ways. I ask any teen who will to listen and tell me which style would be better received by your peers.

Ironically the song is called "I'm not cool." This is ironic because I'm asking some teens online which version would be cool. :-/

I'm jinxed because the first version of a song that I hear will be the version I prefer. I heard the second one first, so I prefer the second one. And now there's no way to go back in time and hear the first one first.

Also I'm not a teen. :O

By the way, here's the original version by Scott Krippayne. ONLY CLICK IF YOU CAN STAND 80's POP! This is the reason I'm doing this song in a different style than the original.

I begin to think it was futile to post this in the teen forum. Teens don't seem to frequent the forum. Maybe I should have looked at the other threads last-post dates...

I think the first one sounds like it should be a jingle for a cereal commercial.

The second sounds like it could work for teens, but it needs to be faster like maybe 180 beats per min. (tempo example: Ramblin Man - Allman Brothers)
