The fact that the NON-rock song 3am was so damn high along with the bland Phoebe Bridgers song but Evanescence, P!nk, No Doubt, Joan Jett and The Pretty Reckless were all very low is just...so damn stupid. Hell, Avril being lower than Phoebe and that NON-rock Haim song was also BS Evanescence was so f*cking low with the judges. It seems they just want sweet and calm voices. Like what the f*ck been noisy and shouting is part of what is associated with Rock Music. Like not even in a Rock Round they can appreciate that...
touya kinomoto Posted January 21, 2021 Posted January 21, 2021 Back in the top 5 in the averages.

This only my first time playing VL but I've found the scoring system to be nicer compared to other "submit a song"-type games. Seems like there's more variance in taste among everyone, too.

Imagine if I sent an Orianthi song! I remember back in 2010 when I won a round for sending her, now I will be eliminated if I use her!

Heart of Glass barely classifies as a Rock song (Genres: Pop, Disco and New Wave). So I can see why Judges would put it low. (I kinda wish I know this so I can give it some sabotage dddd instead of put it at #1 but There wasn't much internet to the place I traveled so I couldn't waste it searching for information of the songs...) 1 hour ago, touya kinomoto said: Please, Garbage placed high. I don't think Shirley was sweet and calm in that song. She doesn't sound sweet and calm but neither noisy and shouting. Also her instrumental was the best without a doubt among the entries so very deserved of a high placement.

Especially that last one. It's 2021, time to stop pretending BMTL is a good song.

This is like saying in 2040, we have to stop pretending Never Really Over or Shallow are good songs, or something like that. Of course with the times changing people will have different perspective on songs but that doesn't mean a song is not good just because it's not the current sound. I am just very old I guess.

The top 2 songs of the round aren't current sounds too but they placed high. Also the songs you mentioned are good songs, so your point? The thing is, we may complain about the judges' and the other contestants' way of ranking songs (and yes, I do that a lot) and at the end of the day, we have to remember that taste is subjective. But if a lot of people say that a song maybe worse compared to others, that should get you to thinking how this game should be played.

Well, Bring Me to Life was also a good song during 2004, but now it wasn't? How are you sure that those songs aren't good in 2040? I hope I get you to meet my point. As you say, it's subjective, and I agree with that. And I am not complaining, apologies if my comments came as something like that. I'm just saying my observation, as yousee with my songs' rankings, but I still send in songs that are not Vanishing Letters-friendly just because I like to challenge myself in the game I guess. Let me give a hug so this won't go down as something negative.
fiercE Posted January 21, 2021 Posted January 21, 2021 I'm ready for my second bottom placement this season.. Imagine sending only 2 songs and both placed last
Overprotected Posted January 21, 2021 Author Posted January 21, 2021 Spoiler @Queen Conchita @Born to Run @Invisibility @Future Lover Last chance to send if you would like to come back, round on pg.65
Anthem Posted January 22, 2021 Posted January 22, 2021 Y’all, I’m listening to some songs from past rounds and just realized that the “shivering gold” cover art is Tove Lo grabbing her ***** lips ? wtf!!
