mathematical proof that your song sucks

[rone]

Hit Song Science can determine the likelihood of a song becoming a hit (registration: klortho/klortho). I can't decide whether this is ultra-cool and will lead to major labels dropping crap like a stone and looking for quality stuff amongst the unsigned and indie... or whether it is abominable and will lead major labels to perform unspeakable surgery on their existing music in order to make it "mathematically viable".

Now combine it with
