This service provides valuable feedback and evaluation for songwriters and artists who are working to perfect their music. Each song submitted shall receive a comprehensive evaluation, with the lyric, music, performance, production, and market potential all fully reviewed. Whether the submission is professional and near-perfect, or in a much rougher form, we will make the suggestions necessary to maximize the potential of your song. Rough demos are truly welcome. We can supply important feedback to you before a large sum is spent making your definitive recording.

At this time, Dale Kawashima (veteran music publisher/A&R and Head of SongwriterUniverse) will be writing every evaluation. The evaluation will be a detailed, typed analysis of every facet of your song and demo.

Importantly, all songs submitted for our Song Evaluation Service will become automatically eligible to win the SongwriterUniverse “Best Song Of The Month” Contest, at no extra charge. (This is optional; writers can decline to enter this contest).

I have been submitting my songs for critiques by Dale at SongwriterUniverse since 2001 and have benefitted greatly from his evaluations. No other critiques have provided me with as much useful feedback as Dale's. His comments are always very incisive and helpful, and have enabled me to improve my songwriting significantly over the last few years.

The SongwriterUniverse website is informative, visually clear and very welcoming. The song evaluations have helped me to take a closer and more honest look at various aspects of my own songwriting process. Dale's comments have inspired me to take an idea or a set of lyrics further than I would have in the past, and to be more aware of what's needed in a song.
