tournament ✨ ATRL's Song Contest: The Re-Up ✨ Winner revealed (pg.500)

[bestfiction]

TAEYEON - Better Babe: chorus sounds kinda... ankward, if that makes sense? the verses were lowkey and pretty and the contrast between them and the chorus is not appealing

[Navyofbadgals]

Where U Are - cute, but ehm yeah.. not as good say her EP work. Still cute though

[Tom Vercetti]

Utada Hikaru - Kremlin Dusk: This song is trying to do something but idk. I'm not really satisfied by the overall product. I think I just prefer her Japanese songs. 

[bestfiction]

Utada Hikaru - This One (Crying Like a Child): yeah this one has 00s all over it but it's kinda sweet and cute? However, her overseas efforts aren't nearly as good as her original Japanese stuff, sadly

Tom skipping Crack Baby

JAIL!

 

[Navyofbadgals]

Switchblade - this.. is whatever I guess? It's cute I guess but it really doesn't do a lot for me tbh. 

[Tom Vercetti]

Rina Sawayama - Cherry: Cute. This should've been on her upcoming album instead of corny drivel like Chosen Family. 
 

[K$Ellie]

Yours: I like it but MJ is far better, I could see this maybe getting 1 or 2 points if the round is weak so we'll see x

I didn't even notice. My bad

[Navyofbadgals]

I Wish - she does not embody the song at all tbh, wasted potential tbh. The verses are odd, and the chorus, whilst a bit better, is missing something. Going to pass on this tbqh

[bestfiction]

Jolin Tsai - Sweet Guilty Pleasure: this has a lot going on and it balances between being edgy and being tasteless but overall, I'm impressed.

[Tom Vercetti]

Mitski - Crack Baby: A talented song

 

[Navyofbadgals]

Crack Baby - well again, I'm a sucker for Mitski, and Crack Baby is no exception. I prefer Washing Machine Heart (and Happy) though, but this is still really beautiful

[K$Ellie]

Better Baby: not a huge fan of hers but this is great? kinda shook and the chorus works for me so x

[bestfiction]

Kero Kero Bonito - Time Today: we literally have no choice but to stan

 

[bestfiction]

Olivia Hye - Egoist (feat. JinSoul): y'all saying LOONA is a point grab when this round has 3 (three) Mitski songs issa banger

 

[Navyofbadgals]

Pink Youth - easily the best song from Yuna here tbh, I like the grooviness here and the rap verse is cute here as well x We love a reverse aly & aj moment, where the songs actually get gradually better, instead of worse lol

[K$Ellie]

This One: pretty dated, sounds like a typical 00's song

 

[Navyofbadgals]

Kremlin Dusk - erm yeah I'm gonna go with no tbh, the production here is AMAZING but the vocal delivery is.. disappointing to say the least. It never reaches its fullest potential tbh. Would've honestly gotten some points from me if it was just an instrumental tbh lol, oh well!

[Tom Vercetti]

Noa Kirel - Pouch: At least there's a change of pace compared to the previous songs. Undecided on where to place this but not bad. 
 

 

 

[bestfiction]

Utada Hikaru - Ore No Kanojo: not my particular favorite from Fantome but this is solid regardless

[Navyofbadgals]

Cherry - the way this is better than all of her current pre-release songs (besides XS obviously) kii! Anyways this aged very nicely tbh, cute x

[K$Ellie]

Sweet Guilty Pleasure: a huge mess but I kinda live? I'll probs give it points

 

[K$Ellie]

Time Today: I wanted to send them  you had some better options but this is a gorgist sing x

[K$Ellie]

Egoist: gorgist sing [2]
