Asking for music opinions

I'm taking a course to learn the process of selling my music on TV and Movies. This is called syncing. Part of the course is getting outside opinions. (vetting) It's really difficult for the composer to be objective about his or her own music. I was hoping some of the DU operatives might help a guy out. I put together 9 questions with Survey Monkey. You don't need to be a musician. As a matter of fact, music listeners are the most desirable opinions. Please don't spend a lot of time on this and please be honest and if possible, constructive.

For those of helping me out and thanks for your time!

I plan on putting these out every couple of months if it works out.

describe the musical style, the tone, lyrics or not etc.

deviating from the brief is usually automatic rejection. and meet time deadlines, the industry does not like people who can't follow directions or be on time.

really it's who you know in the biz that can help you with contacts
