best of ⭐ Rem-embering 2018 ​⭐ THE END!

[Remmy]

Time for Day 13 

I see the section has been pretty empty, which I expected as it's Christmas Eve, so I'm just gonna

quickly post 5 ~irrelevant~ categories together (+ continue Best Tracks) and then return on the 26th.

 

 

Biggest Grower: Album

BØRNS 'Blue Madonna'

This was a pretty easy winner to pick because it's one of the few releases that significantly grew on me while a lot of

others hit me instantly. I never hated Blue Madonna at all, it just took a few plays to *really* find that love and appreciation.

Specifically, "iceberg" went from being in my bottom three to grabbing a spot in my trinity, which is extremely rare.

 

Biggest Grower: Song

Ariana Grande "God is a woman"

When she dropped this I was confused, disappointed and immediately labeled it as one of her worst songs. I think it was the

chorus and outro that made me feel this way? I don't even remember, but it took me a whole month to finally give it another listen

and realize she's a bop. Then after hearing the rest of Sweetener, it turned out to be a blessing compared to half of the tracklist.

 

 

 

 

Big Brother Canada 6: Houseguest Ranking

 

16. Hamza Hatoum [12th place • 1 HOH • 1 Veto]
15. Derek Kesseler [3rd place • 2 HOHs • 2 Vetos]
14. Ryan Ballantine [9th place • 1 HOH • 1 Veto]
13. Veronica Doherty [13th place • 0 HOHs • 0 Vetos]
12. William "Will" Kenny [4th place • 0 HOHs • 0 Vetos]
11. Andrew Miller [15th place • 0 HOHs • 0 Vetos]
10. Merron Haile [11th place • 0 HOHs • 0 Vetos]
9. Madeline "Maddy" Poplett [5th place • 0 HOHs • 0 Vetos]
8. Jesse Larson [14th place • 0 HOHs • 0 Vetos]
I actually don't really despise anyone here, but almost all 9 had some annoying moments. I don't think I ever stanned any of them.

Most of this group didn't play hard or didn't make enough of a splash, even though they thought they were making several points.

 

7. Rozina Yaqub [16th place • 0 HOHs • 0 Vetos]
I mean, she literally left on the 2nd episode so I can't say much, but I was actually pretty disappointed to see her go.

I bet she would've served plenty of funny moments with a side of awful gameplay.

 

6. Alejandra "Ali" Martinez [8th place • 0 HOHs • 0 Vetos]
5. Kaela Grant [2nd place • 2.5 HOHs • 3 Vetos]
4. Paras Atashnak [1st place • 2 HOHs • 0 Vetos]
3. Olivia Riemer [7th place • 1 HOH • 0 Vetos]
2. Johnny Mulder [6th place • 2 HOHs • 3 Vetos]
1. Erica Hill [10th place • 2 HOHs • 2 Vetos]
#5, #2, #1 beasted through competitions while #6, #4 and #3 kept me entertained (and some of them even did both.) It was pretty

easy to root for this crew, especially my trinity. I hated Olivia at first and wanted her to leave, then all of a sudden she became

so lovable and effortlessly comedic. Johnny and Erica, whew. What a fantastic pair, those LGBT queens really snatched me

and they deserved to be final 2 for sure.

 

Celebrity Big Brother 1 US: Houseguest Ranking

 

11. Keshia Knight Pulliam [10th place • 1 HOH • 0 Vetos]
Meh... she was pretty bland and her reason for leaving was weird.

10. James Maslow [6th place • 0 HOHs • 1 Veto]
Wasn't here for his personality, should've gotten someone else from Big Time Rush.

09. Chuck Liddell [11th place • 0 HOHs • 0 Vetos]
He left first and had no impact, welp!

08. Mark McGrath [3rd place • 1 HOH • 0 Vetos]
He was fine, don't really remember anything he did though dd.

07. Marissa Jaret Winokur [1st place • 1 HOH • 1 Veto]
Liked her at first but she talks way too much. Not the best choice for the first CBBUS winner.

06. Ariadna Gutiérrez [4th place • 1 HOH • 1 Veto]
She flew under the radar for around half the time but by the end I kinda found myself rooting for ha.

05. Metta World Peace [8th place • 0 HOHs • 0 Vetos]
Kiii he was so goofy, it sucks that he was so obsessed with quitting and had to leave early.

04. Ross Mathews [2nd place • 2 HOHs • 2 Vetos]
I like him in general and I love that he's a superfan but I remember him cockblocking fun moves

and his gameplay was predictable, so that wasn't cute. Still wanted him to win.

03. Brandi Glanville [7th place • 0 HOHs • 0 Vetos]
Ahhh she was a mess but a very entertaining one. Great casting for sure, we need more people like her.

02. Shannon Elizabeth [9th place • 1 HOH • 1 Veto]
It happens at least once every season: the houseguest that plays way too hard, way too fast.

She deserved so much more, but unfortunately the fault is all hers.

01. Omarosa Manigault [5th place • 2 HOHs • 0 Vetos]
She had the girls SHAKING. FLUSTERED. UNCOMFORTABLE. It was amazing to see her manipulate

and piss people off in real time, even if several of her shady plans didn't work out.

 

 

Big Brother 20 US: Houseguest Ranking 

 

For this one, I kept track of daily ratings (from JokersUpdates.com) for each houseguest so I can sort them

by their season average. Those averages are included next to my mini writeups.

 

16. JC Mounduix [3rd place • 1 HOH • 0 Vetos]
1.112 / 5 ~ UGLY PROBLEMATIC RAT

15. Winston Hines [14th place • 0 HOHs • 0 Vetos]
1.551 / 5 ~ The amount of wasted potential... wow. He was such a fan favorite but then the

live feeds started and we saw some overly paranoid, annoying douchebro.

14. Brett Robinson [6th place • 0 HOHs • 1 Veto]
1.602 / 5 ~ So overrated. He barely made any points, but he was eye candy so that's the one positive thing I can say.

13. Angela Rummans [4th place • 3 HOHs • 2 Vetos]
2.224 / 5 ~ She really did nothing for me. Tried to be an evil queen but ended up looking like a parody.

12. Steve Arienta [16th place • 0 HOHs • 0 Vetos]
2.336 / 5 ~ The obvious first boot.

11. Faysal Shafaat [9th place • 1 HOH • 2 Vetos]
2.397 / 5 ~ My least favorite from the superior alliance (FOUTTE). He wasn't awful or anything but he had some

annoying moments, and him getting Scottie evicted was one of this season's lowest points.

10. Kaycee Clark [1st place • 1 HOH • 5 Vetos(!!)]
2.500 / 5 ~ She was completely irrelevant until around the midpoint where she finally beasted through a ton of comps (which was both

impressive and boring.) Only really started caring for her at the final 6 when I was frantically searching for someone to root for.

09. Chris "Swaggy C" Williams [15th place • 0 HOHs • 0 Vetos]
3.000 / 5 ~ Most people really hated Swaggy but I was neutral towards him all season long, even when he was at home

and on Twitter. Actually, I rated him a 3/5 every day, giving him a perfect 3.0 average. Would've been interesting

to see how different the season ended up being if he didn't get blindsided early.

08. Tyler Crispen [2nd place • 3 HOHs • 3 Vetos]
3.020 / 5 ~ The basic beach boy didn't leave first for once!?!? Well he actually wasn't basic like the others that came before,

he actually had a brain and knew what he was doing. His gameplay was pretty great overall but after a while it became less

impressive and also less entertaining.

07. Bayleigh Dayton [11th place • 1 HOH • 0 Vetos]
3.214 / 5 ~ She was fun, messy and pretty easy to stan... then her HOH week came and it was just a massive

downward spiral. But after she left, I actually felt myself missing her.

06. Kaitlyn Herman [13th place • 1 HOH • 0 Vetos]
3.469 / 5 ~ [See #7] + Kaitlyn was responsible for several iconic moments during her relatively short stay,

though her antics got tedious a week before her departure.

05. Rachel Swindler [12th place • 0 HOHs • 0 Vetos]
3.683 / 5 ~ The only Level 6 member I really loved! She deserved better and more airtime as well. From what I

saw on the feeds and read from update accounts, Rachel was fun and had potential for more.

04. Haleigh Broucher [7th place • 1 HOH • 0 Vetos]
3.846 / 5 ~ We love a REAL fan favorite! She's so sweet and mature for her age, but sis started getting

sloppy (in several different ways) during the second half of her game.

03. Angie "Rockstar" Lantry [10th place • 0 HOHs • 0 Vetos]
3.867 / 5 ~ People who only watched the show saw someone with a bad edit, while others who watched the feeds saw

someone completely different that was effortlessly entertaining, generally woke and just flat out cool. I'm glad to say I was

part of the latter (still wish she played a better game though.)

02. Samantha "Sam" Bledsoe [5th place • 1 HOH • 0 Vetos]
4.010 / 5 ~ Watching Sam during this season was quite a ride. She started off as a ROBOT for the first 2 weeks and

stole everyone's hearts, came back as a lovable sweetheart (or so we thought), spouted some casual misogyny during her HOH,

and then showed worrying mental health signs up until her final 5 eviction. It's hard to explain why I was a fan of her the whole

entire time, but there was something about Sam that made me want to consistently cheer her on (okay, well her Tyler puppet moments sucked.)

01. Scottie Salton [8th place • 1 HOH • 1 Veto]
4.275 / 5 ~ CBS always has to cast someone that fits their *nerdy archetype*, and that specific group is filled with some very

polarizing houseguests. Well surprisingly, Scottie wasn't one of them! This is the first time I've ever STANNED the geek! I'm so

sorry for judging your photo when the cast was revealed, sis! Scottie actually came to play, and that's exactly what he did. I'm just

pressed that his alliance constantly did him dirty and he had a hard time gaining anyone's trust.

Right Moves is awful, wyd sis?

Hoping to see some Rita Ora Phoenix songs on here, cause she snapped on that album.

New Look better make it. and Bebe's Knees and Self Control.

Girl it's a highlight! And ummm sorry to tell you but I didn't listen to either of those albums  Especially Bebe, I didn't even consider listening to hers dd

My fave closing track of the year is Leave The City by TOP

This one is actually among my least favorites from Trench but it's a good closer, not their strongest though.

If Walls Could Talk  it's my fave album track along with Talk Fast 

The Other Side  I've never heard any Betty Who song until this one and I totally loved it  

Kings of talking!

Oh wow at that being your 1st! She has some more songs that are even better so if you haven't already, you should continue listening to her  My favorite track from each of her releases~ Heartbreak Dream | Pretend You're Missing Me | Just Thought You Should Know

7 hours ago, TheWayWeWere said:

INLA is flawless as closing number  I cried so hard during movie

Shedules is the best song from entire Raw EP

 

Crazy Classic Life, The Other Side and Right Moves on best tracks kinda forgot how good RM is  

I only cried a tiny bit the 1st time around, but it wasn't full on tears streaming or anything.

Oh yes, for sure!

According to other comments, so did others  She's HOT

1 hour ago, potent said:

Right Moves is one of the best songs on the album, you know the tea

Crazy Classic Life is a choice though, but at least it's not that high

It's been in my top 3 ever since my first play  Shocked to see some haters on the previous page

CCL is great though! The chorus slightly turned me off when I first heard it but after getting used to that, it's a highlight 

[Kiss It Better]

i didn't like GIAW that much at first too (same with no tears) but by the 4th or 5th listen... WHEW 

[Tsareena]

 blue madonna was definitely a grower for me too

 

from songslist. lightyears. if it’s over, screwed, troye, dance to this happy and sad.. all great

[Tropical]

Nnn poor Sweetener being served that thick dose of shade. GIAW is kinda annoying though - but nonetheless a bop. It just could be MORE.

[Brandon]

 

Dance to This 

[-mUsIcLoVeR-]

Dance to This! Looks like Troye is going to slay this considering he has four more entries!

[Lazuli]

The outro of GIAW is the best part how could it make you think it was her worst song

nn @ Graffiti appearing twice. And nn the acoustic version is really lowkey better huh

Dance to This was meh for me. Expected a lot more tbh

[Legend E]

I agree about GIAW being a grower

 

Graffiti x2  The acoustic version is indeed better

 

Happy & Sad

Biggest Grower: Song

Ariana Grande "God is a woman"

 

Glad you saw the light  it's one of her best singles  

 

Troye Sivan ft. Ariana Grande "Dance to This"   

[Kevin2803]

Screwed 

 

Dance To This is a bop  

[Blue Rose]

Screwed and Dance To This are perfection

wow you really love Churches. 

[madonnas]

The vocal performance on Lightyears cracks me tf up but its a HUGE moment in the album. 

[kelly-clarkson]

God Is A Woman it's amazing

The video is cute too but I prefer the MV of NTLTC

[TheWayWeWere]

if Blue Madonna is a grower, I need to relisten it

GIAW  it's a grower indeed

 

If It's Over is a bop

Screwed

 

[Green]

Happy & Sad, Dance to this and Screwed are really good.

[collin]

Happy & Sad and Dance To This are great Screwed and If It's Over are fun collabs here, too.

 

[touch]

GIAW is definitetly a grower and the Troye tracks are standouts on his album

[Mr. Loco]

I don't stan much for this set... Dance to this is the best out of those

[Pink Whitney]

Thought I was the only one who stanned RachelJackie still remains superior though  the way all my favs left weeks 3-5  Fayleigh were kinda cute to root for I guess

 

Brandi & Omarosa are THOSE bitches“Girl I play xBox”

 

I didn’t watch BBCAN6 was it goodThey should’ve had Brittnee return for BBCAN5 and I’m still pissed 

 

 

[Tom Vercetti]

Screwed is an album track highlight for sure. I liked how it transitions into Django Jane.

[theblackestday]

God Is a Woman was instant for me, I remember listening to it for the first time and my instant thought was "this is her best single"  I'm glad it grew on you

Happy & Sad  hoping to see the last Kacey song being something other than High Horse

@Giaw: I honestly don't know  I guess because the ending was so repetitive? I really don't have an answer for that now dd

But anyway, wow I thought I was one of the 5 people that listened to the acoustic EP  Both versions of Graffiti slay, but the acoustic one is so pretty.

Same, though I didn't really love either of them. Both had some amazing moments but there were also some messy parts I didn't enjoy.

Oh wow finally someone acknowledged the BB lists  I'm probably gonna get rid of those categories next year ddd

 

Rachel is underappreciated we been knew! I prefer Rachel's personality but Jackie is the superior player. Winston was one of your faves?  Well, one of them was

sdfjdfij

It was alright, definitely a step down from BBCAN5 (aka one of the best Big Brother seasons of all time) but there were some good moments + a solid top 2  Oh yes she could've replaced Dallas! Or to keep the house as 8 guys/8 girls, maybe Cassandra since she had no impact this time around.
