z. f(x) - déjà vu
This is a cute bop, it had my hips shaking

 

y. indila - dernière danse
She has a nice voice and this is cute, but just cute.

 

x. blackpink - DDU DU DDU DU
One of the kpop songs I actually know and love, a smart choice!

 

w. angèle - flou
I enjoyed this song alot, it's one of the few I listened to twice. It was very pleasant.

 

v. era istrefi - bonbon
Yas I remember this bop :jamming: 

 

u. suzane - l'insatisfait
I liked this, it has a nice beat/rhythm to it.

 

t. utada hikaru -  俺の彼女 
Utada has a pretty voice, I love her KH song. This song is kinda long, I got a little bored. 

 

s. shakira - la tortura
The male vocals on this annoy me. And Shakira's vocals tbh :deadbanana2: idk sometimes her vocals get a little grating.

Bagels' Critiques

First up, if you have not sent your rankings, PLEASE do so :heart2: You have 24 hours and then some left :heart2: 

Please send, or let me know if you need more time

GROUP 1

Quote

 

a. Britney Spears - Coupure électrique - pff when this came out I remember some french peepz on my tl mocking it; https://www.huffingtonpost.fr/2016/08/26/britney-spears-coupure-electrique-paroles-francais_n_11715750.html this too :deadbanana: I just think that this was not the right choice for this round at all.. and in all fairness, it wasn't the right choice for any round. It goes nowhere

 

b. angèle - balance ton quoi - ugh I'm a sucker for some good pop in French. Angèle was one of my favorite discoveries of last year so I'm happy to see her back (twice!). I really like this song as well, like pretty much every song she released so far. I feel like there were better options that you could pick, but this is still a good pick :clap3: 

 

c. kali uchis - nuestro planeta - yes this bops :katie2: not my fav song from the album, but still like it.

 

d. alexandra stan - noi 2 - this is a betty who 2.0 :rip: I don't know why anyone would send in an artist like that, if they bombed pretty hardcore the last time they were sent in :rip: This is.. not good. It does nothing for me, it's not catchy, it's not beautiful, it's not that fun.. so like what does it want to achieve? No clue, but it ain't trying to achieve a high ranking, that's for sure :thing: 

 

e. kali uchis - solita - this is cute, like it a bit more than the other kali song this round. She sounds a bit more engaged with the track. A cute bop

 

f. f(x) - 4 walls - this song comes from one of the few KPop albums I listened to so it's fun to see it back :mandown: I think this is a really solid track in general, and one of the better kpop songs sent in this szn. Not sure if the rapping was needed, but the rest of the song is great :clap3: 

 

g. alma - requiem - one of my favorite ESC songs of all time, and dare I say one of my fav songs of all time too :mandown: I love this **** yup yup yup!

 

h. paty cantu - el sexo y amor - I was gonna say nice instrumental, but I feel like at points (esp in the verses) it doesn't match that well? I think this is still a nice choice though, it's interesting, and one of the few songs this round that I don't recognize

 

i. aya nakamura - pookie - it's a bop, but I don't think it's that great of a song either :thing: Very modern and on-trend though, and not a bad pick, but with the groups being so small now, this prolly ends up lower than it would in previous rounds (relatively speaking)

 

GROUP 2

 

Quote

 

z. f(x) - déjà vu - yeah I'm bopping :katie2: I think the rapping works better here, though the production is more 'timeless' on the other f(x) track this round. Nice pick still though

 

y. indila - dernière danse - this is really a stunning track oh wow. The way it bops but is also beautiful at the same time.. miss indila her mind..

 

x. blackpink - DDU DU DDU DU - I will say that I think this is a fun track. But on the other hand I just.. expected more for this round. Not like everybody was that outgoing this round as I expected, but I feel like this is like.. the easiest pick for a song this round :rip: A bit of a disappointing choice, but still a nice song nevertheless

 

w. angèle - flou - yes :clap3: just yes

 

v. era istrefi - bonbon - when this became a lowkey smash, because people thought rih sang the chorus :thing: rih sweetie! I'm SO sorry. This is a fun bop, though it has aged for me a biT

 

u. suzane - l'insatisfait - something is missing here? Idk what but it's not fully here for me. I think it's a fun song, but it's not blowing me away. Like the breakdown though

 

t. utada hikaru -  俺の彼女  - probably the most out there track, this round, I appreciate that. Her vocal delivery on this is stunning, but I think the song drags a biT

 

s. shakira - la tortura - it's cute ; queen of singing and tax evasion

a. Britney Spears – Coupure Électrique

it’s like, the most boring song on the album… not a fan.

 

b. Angèle - Balance ton quoi

this is kinda cute, the production is nice.

 

c. Kali Uchis - Nuestro Planeta

might not be the best on the album, but it’s chill.

 

d. Alexandra Stan - Noi 2

most people are bashing it, but i think this is a cute bop.

 

e. Kali Uchis - Solita

she sounds so good on this. might be a bit slow for me, but that’s okay!

 

f. f(x) - 4 Walls

that rapping part was ugly. pretty mediocre song tho

 

g. Alma - Requiem

rather dull. not terrible, i guess

 

h. Paty Cantu - El Sexo y Amor

CRITIQUES

this is by FAR the worst round so far, y'all need to step it tf UP! :mazen:

 

GROUP 1

Spoiler

 

Britney Spears - Coupure électrique

y'all really out here thinking of Britney Spears when asked for a song in another language, i'm-

anyway, this is boring af. do better.

 

angèle - balance ton quoi

i don't care for this at all. it's kinda cute but kinda boring at the same time.

 

kali uchis - nuestro planeta

this is like trying to be a reggaeton song, but falling flat, like BIG time. the feature was lowkey the best part of the song.

another boring ass song tbh. also, idk if she always sounds like that, but her voice sounds SO lazy.

 

alexandra stan - noi 2

is this not on spotify? :biblio:

anyway, this is generic and boring. kinda at the top of my list rn which is absolutely tragic :rip: 

 

kali uchis - solita

her voice really is like that, huh

that said this is MUCH better than the previous kali song and well the best song so far.

the beat actually comes through this time around and she actually does a bit more with her voice

 

f(x) - 4 walls

this falls on the higher end of the ranking, it bops a bit

that said, it's generic af and i really wouldn't go back to it

 

alma - requiem

ok, this is nice. props for actually sending in a decent entry :clap3: 

the bridge is probably the best part of the song btw, whew

 

paty cantu - el sexo y amor

WHY in the world is this song talking about love/sex between a 32 y/o man and a 16 y/o girl? :mazen:

anyway, if i pretend i don't understand the lyrics, the song is cute, i like the melody and her voice

still a song i wouldn't go back to tho

 

aya nakamura - pookie

issa no from me

 

GROUP 2

Spoiler

 

f(x) - déjà vu

i-

cringy, dated, kidz bop realness

 

indila - dernière danse

this is quite cute. love her voice and how the song built up, whew. Great entry, good job :clap3:

 

blackpink - DDU DU DDU DU

needless to say, issa generic ass BOP. almost everyone else has done worse so props to you!

 

angèle - flou

this is better than the other angèle song, it's fairly cute

 

era istrefi - bonbon

yup yup, a bop :katie2:

 

suzane - l'insatisfait

eh, it's ok

 

 utada hikaru -  俺の彼女 

not a vocaroo entrace, kii

this is cute tho, i like it... maybe a bit too long tho

 

shakira - la tortura

when i saw this entry i thought there were so many better shakira songs that you could send (and there are)

but seeing how this round turned out, well this easily one of the best songs sent considering both groups, great job, this issa classic :clap3:
