Moodagent profiles 3 Green River Ordinance songs – Come On, On Your Own and Rise Up

This week while attending the AT&T Music Service launch party at CTIA, I discovered a band called Green River Ordinance. I’d already heard some of their music over the radio and was pleasantly surprised at how many more songs they had in their repertoire. Here are 3 of their songs: “Come On”, “On Your Own” and “Rise Up” along with their mood profiles and the playlists Moodagent automatically created from my personal collection.

As you can see, GRO’s songs tend to favor aggression (purple) and a faster tempo (gray). “Come On” has the highest levels of Passion (red) and Happiness (yellow), while “On Your Own” has more tenderness (orange).
