Yvess Posted June 18, 2019 Author Share Posted June 18, 2019 @Element's CRITIQUES TEAM SABBATH Mentor: @Sabbath Members: @KatyCatPH @Psycho @thecptz @Alena @PinkBox Alena - Selena Gomez Cologne (MANIA) Spoiler Element: Alena Your explanation is helpful and overall makes sense, but this track feels like a pretty classic “I miss you” song. There isn’t that much that takes it from normal longing and emotional expression to that obsessive, jealous, and maniacal level. I did like the lyric “running my mind cause my heart lost all control”. Obviously, the strongest selling point is the titular line… she’s wearing nothing but his cologne, which is a bit extra, but I feel like this comes up in other post-breakup songs. KatyCatPH - Taylor Swift Breathless (AGAPE) Spoiler Element: KatyCatPH Very strong choice. The chorus provides a pretty accurate depiction of agape… whether this is a friend, family member, or romantic figure in Taylor’s life, she is focused on helping them through their dark times and providing support without any judgment. I think this entry could have been propelled to the very top of the round if the verses had some more detail regarding Taylor’s specific sacrifices, but nonetheless, this works super well. Psycho - Lady Gaga Pokerface (LUDUS) Spoiler Element: Psycho God, did the luck of the draw work in your favor with this one. The whole thing is about casino games and bluffing. Bye. Also, the fact that this song is 10 years old is terrifying. Pinkbox - Hymne à l'Amitié (STORGE) Spoiler Element: PinkBox This parenthetical citation is SENDING me. This was cute. I think it certainly expresses the celebration of a relationship between friends, but it doesn’t fully depict the deep memories that the narrator should have expressed to take the song to the next level. thecptz - Kacey Musgraves Family is Family (STORGE) Spoiler Element: thecptz - Aw, this was such a fun and unique version of storge. I really like this choice. It goes into all of these different experiences and memories that you will have with family throughout your life. The relationship feels very authentic and it shows both sides of the equation = what you will do for them and what they will do for you. Very nice! xox0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yvess Posted June 18, 2019 Author Share Posted June 18, 2019 @Sabbath'S CRITIQUES TEAM SPEEZY Mentor: @Speezy Members: @Loyalty @Boys @Queen Conchita @Touch It Boys - Britney Spears Scary (MANIA) Spoiler Sabbath: Boys - Britney Spears I think it mixes a little too much of Eros, and while I do get mania ‘cause Britney herself says so when she’s scared of how much she wants the other person, I feel like I was expecting something else since you hyped it up so much lmao. I feel like the first verse is definitely mania, then the pre-chorus not so much since she “only needs a little time” then the chorus comes in and is mania and so on with the rest of the song. Still think is a good entry. Loyalty - Christina Aguilera Falling In Love Again (LUDUS) Spoiler Sabbath: Loyalty - Christina Aguilera Loyalty baby nooooooo, what are you doing There’s nothing about this song that says Ludus to me. Where is the lack of commitment? The playfulness? The sexiness? The ANYTHING? She only talks about never falling in love again and that boys like her but there’s nothing that alludes to your category at all, it just feels like a song to feel badass ‘cause no one can break your heart anymore or something :( Queen Conchita - Conchita Wurst Out of Body Experience (EROS) Spoiler Sabbath: Conchita - Conchita ahhh my other stolen child, hope they’re treating you well over there. Anyways, I like this, I like how it’s subtle but you still know what’s going on, I see you Miss Conchita, don’t think I don’t. I also really like the vibe of the song. Overall, the lyrics are not super special, but they display the theme well enough. Touch It - Beyonce Die With You (AGAPE) Spoiler Sabbath: Touch It - Beyoncé This gives me mania vibes, specially the chorus, but I still feel some Agape in there. The song is great, but going by the descriptions, this doesn’t SCREAM agape to me like the hoest. XOXO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yvess Posted June 18, 2019 Author Share Posted June 18, 2019 @Sabbath'S CRITIQUES TEAM ELEMENT Mentor: @Element Members: @Solarie @Not Like The Movies @kiiwii @Guero @PoKiTaurus Guero - Ariana Grande Bloodline (LUDUS) Spoiler Sabbath: Guero - Ariana Grande I think this misses an important aspect of your category which is the “lying” or the fact that you’re “playing” with the other person. In the song, Ariana is very clear with her intentions and what she wants, even telling the other person that she won’t be calling the next day, everything is very straightforward. She is obviously talking about being uncommitted, but there’s no flirting or teasing as, like I said, the lyrics are very in your face. kiiwii - Katy Perry Double Rainbow (STORGE) Spoiler Sabbath: kiiwii - Katy Perry I like that you can tell she loves the other person even if the lyrics are very simple, and they give me this almost ‘heartwarming’ feeling. However, Storge is supposed to ‘happen’ because of memories and experiences and the song never addresses that or explains the path the relationship went thru to get to this storge love. Not Like The Movies - Janelle Monae Can't Live Without Your Love (MANIA) Spoiler Sabbath: Not Like the Movies - Janelle Monae I mean, I think the chorus is great, it’s absolutely obsessive and creepy to think you can’t live without someone and fits right with Mania. I wish the verses were a little stronger, but overall this hits the theme head on. Points cause you added the lyrics to your entry whew. PoKiTaurus - Mariah Carey I'll Be There (AGAPE) Spoiler Sabbath: Pokitaurus - Mariah Carey Yeah, this definitely fits great. All the lyrics allude to this selfless love that Agape represents. No words! Solarie - Avril Lavigne Don't Stop (EROS) Spoiler Sabbath: Solarie - Avril Lavigne I feel like this song has a little bit of everything lol but I get the Eros part, literally from the first verse where she says she’s already turned on. It’s a little too generic tho, but I know you probably struggled since I don’t relate Avril with erotic songs. xoxo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
