Kelp Posted August 26, 2021 Posted August 26, 2021 Duhmdurum - ooh I like this beat and don’t hate Asian people unlike the rest of this site so love it ? (jk) just wish the chorus was a bit bigger Gemini Feed - this girl is so basic and the song sounds cheap, when can we stop passing around this dated af song in every song related game and rate x, dreadful Army of Me - I’m not a huge Bjork fan but I kinda love this one, it’s like experimental pop meets Gorillaz meets Janet Jackson Rhythm Nation with those hits How You Like That - a classic! I find this song a little annoying but mostly it is cute and fun It’s All Coming Back to Me Now - I won’t lie this is an anthem, I mean come on. It’s great and one of Celines best. Better get the high placement it deserves Vroom Vroom - I know this is supposed to be a classic for the gheys but I’m not a big fan tbh, hyperpop works sometimes I’m but the pacing here is just so off that it’s hard to get into Go to Town - well she’s come a long way fkabfksnfl. I mean this is cute enough but obviously not up to par with her new stuff, kind of missing the super uniqueness she has now Celebrity Skin - and now introducing my friends Hole! Glad to see this song is getting a lot of praise because it’s great, it’s that lip sync in your underwear in your room type of song. Love the melodic contrast in the “when I wake up in my makeup” part Spotlight - ngl normally hate everything she does but actually I really enjoyed it, the melody is very likable, the song is very danceable. I love chill music but for a song like this I could’ve used a bit more dynamic vocal delivery from her Medicated - honestly really like it (: sadly relatable!! I like the little quirks in the vocal delivery A Message - I like the cool electronic textures in this but it’s really a bridge to nowhere, pretty right away it shows all its hands and it’s so slow too, honestly kind of hard to get through all of Your Love Is My Drug - CPG!! Jk. This is my favorite Kesha song. It’s dated in the best way, I miss that super high cutoff synth sound used in the verses :( it’s just so fun, honestly never get tired of it!! 6’1” - I mean I guess it’s ok ish? Or uh maybe not tbh. I kind of can’t stand her voice at all dksnfkdndkd. Like why is it so deadpan. No offense but I don’t understand why you chose this of all things Tennis Courts - one of her best, that said I don’t really like most of what Lorde has done tbh. I like the pitched vocals and those little clips in the drum kit at least. Middle of the road for me Stupid Girls - okay this aged terribly but I’m sorry I still love this. Maybe it’s the nostalgia but the production is... really good? And I like the attitude P!nk brings to it. But yeah the lyrics is misogynistic af :( Anywhere - with all due respect this is like my least favorite style of music, I hate this bland generic H&M store music akfjdks like I would genuinely have something horrible sounding if it’s interesting. This is bland and boring. The pitched vocal breakdown was cute but couldn’t save it enough for me Young - the vocoder we- uh they kind of snapped honestly, I really enjoy this. And there’s no terrible high falsetto singing? They proved me wrong oh wow. But uh it feels pretty incomplete and short Heartbeats - well it’s interesting, really like the super high vibrato synths but these vocals are quite obnoxious. It kind of sounds like it was made with GarageBand, and maybe it was! Can’t say I really liked this one I Cant Stop Me - this is a bit boring, I wish there was something that made it stand out more. It’s cute but I don’t think I would listen again, another H&M song t r a n s p a r e n t s o u l - I love the whole obnoxious teenage vibe to this, honestly it’s really great and she knew exactly what she was doing here, so catchy too, a great pop rock song !!!
worldwide angel Posted August 26, 2021 Posted August 26, 2021 Black Dresses - Peacesign!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ???????? very hyperpoppy but no sorry Charlie Puth - The Way I Am oh he kinda ate, hips swaying Doja Cat - Cyber Sex its a hot pink highlight but twitter spammed it death Doja Cat - Woman naked is the better afrikan gyal track of the two but this is very good Erika de Casier - Drama yesss SOTY. you sent drana, i’m giving you all of the most points L Devine - Priorities very spotify’d ? Madonna - Survival an opener to a top three madonna album. i wish she played a bit more with babyface Mitski - Happy breasts bouncin’ Pat Benatar - Heartbreaker oh she ate this omg. miley needs to cover this no shade Rihanna - Phresh Out the Runway yesss giving the girls legendary mother of the house of serves Rihanna - SOS its cute. Sade - Smooth Operator this is a certified classic. miss. sade and the sender delivered Sara Bareilles - Brave i rebuke thee satan. its a cute song or whatever but omg should have been left in 2014 Shakira - She Wolf this deserved so much more. the gifs we got from this iconic serve St. Vincent - Pay Your Way in Pain annie ate down, no crumbs SZA - Supermodel another classic. in another world this would be the national anthem for all of the girls ™ in the world TeaMarrr - Chasing Amy oh i love this Wolf Alice - The Beach this is kind of amazing omg? lemme save Zara Larsson - Love Me Land this deserved to be a pan european hit mon dieu
ughgabriel Posted August 26, 2021 Posted August 26, 2021 Apink - Dumhdurum I really like the melodies on this song, it’s very cute and breezy. The way the verses are crafted is so pretty and it just exudes youth and innocence. However, that beat during the chorus is horrendous. I wish the production was different on that section. BANKS - Gemini Feed A very well crafted pop song, but of course you can’t expect less from SOHN. His production is immaculate. This reminds me of his best song ‘Lights’ so of course I enjoy this. I love the structure and the progression of this song. Björk - Army of Me If I had a p****, I’d love to put a blender in it while listening to this song. There such an enraging feeling within this song. Euphoric, empowering and very out of the boz. I love this. BLACKPINK - How You Like That The abrasiveness of this song is what makes it so good and effective. The last minute of the song is just AMAZING; “bring out your boss bitch” and the crazy beat, whew! I stan! Céline Dion - It's All Coming Back to Me Now This is one of those songs where I’m on the fence because I think this is a very pretty song and it’s sung beautifully. But, to me, there’s barely any replay value, it’s way too long and a little melodramatic as an opener to be quite honest. Charli XCX - Vroom Vroom I’ve always loved the production on this song. Those verse go off and the outro is beautiful too. I’ve always thought the chorus lacks something, but I can’t still pinpoint what that is. Still a very good song and strong choice for this round! Doja Cat - Go to Town I tend to hate choirs, it reminds me of those trendy alt rock songs that used to be popular around 2014. But the way she used the choir here is even more gross. I despise this. Hole - Celebrity Skin A WALKING STUDY IN DEMONOLOGY! I love the energy, the delivery, the sound, the switch ups. This is a classic. Jessie Ware - Spotlight https://youtu.be/npNKmgnEQ-c Kari Faux - Medicated I don’t like this. Kelela - A Message This is underwhelming. I hate how the last few songs have relied on repetition when the melodies aren’t even strong enough to pull that off. Kesha - Your Love Is My Drug This is very fun! The production isn’t very flattering anymore but the melodies are so catchy and there’s a nostalgic factor attached to this song which makes me gravitate towards it. Liz Phair - 6'1" Hm, I guess I’m theatrical and campy but I don’t like when someone sings in a monotonous way. I find it a little boring. I think this could’ve been stronger if her vocals were more dynamic because I like the production. Lorde - Tennis Court What a great opener. The production is very unique, it compliments her voice very well and is such a nice introduction to a very good album. P!NK - Stupid Girls This is bad but at least I know this song so the way it sounds makes sense in my head. You shouldn’t be proud of this choice but you’re not my last place! Rita Ora - Anywhere You shouldn’t be proud of this choice and you’re my last place! Sam Smith - Young This is actually interesting for someone like him. I wasn’t expecting this type of song when I read the name ‘Sam Smith’. It was surprising, but I don’t think I’ll ever go back to it. The Knife - Heartbeats I KNOW THIS SONG AND I LOVE THIS SONG TWICE - I Can't Stop Me This is such a great k pop song. Everything about this is sooooo good and it encapsulates every single aspect I love about the genre. WILLOW - T r a n s p a r e n t s o u l I love this trend where people are bringing back Travis to do this throwback type of punk music. I don’t really like the chorus though. But I really like the overall essence of the song!
TruGemini Posted August 26, 2021 Posted August 26, 2021 GROUP 2 REVIEWS Peacesign Spoiler I get what it was going for, but I hate it. It's like the worst aspects of metal meshed into one song. The Way I Am Spoiler It's not bad, it's just basic. He's not interesting sonically, another artist could've made it something. Cyber Sex Spoiler I never got into Dindu because she weird me out but this is okay I guess. Not as good as I would've thought given the hype this song had. Woman Spoiler Weird opening to an album, it feels like a late album filler. It sounds like a denied demo for The Gift. A pass for me. Drama Spoiler A SLAY. Never heard of her before but I am definitely adding this to the playlist and checking her album out when I get a chance. Priorities Spoiler Eh. I hate saying something feels like a "knockoff" but it is giving me"WE HAVE BILLIE ELLISH AT THE HOUSE" vibes. And I don't even listen to Billie. Survival Spoiler I'm not a fan of Madonna personally, so I'm probably bias, but this is decent enough. I feel like other pop girls of her time could've done this song better. Happy Spoiler This song is so forgettable to me. It's so bland that I don't have thoughts about it. Heartbreaker Spoiler The song is iconic so I won't do too much on ha, but let's just say I can see why the chorus is the only part of this song I've heard before today. Phresh Off the Runway Spoiler I've always been mixed on this song. I usually skip but when I do listen I'm not mad? I don't like it as an opener but it's not bad at all. SOS Spoiler A classic. I'll be honest in saying that I don't love how her voice sounds on this song but she was a child so. An eternal bop regardless. Smooth Operator Spoiler Chile, this is something snatched off my dad's playlist. That's not a bad thing though, definitely one of the best songs in this group. Brave Spoiler heartbreaker critique x2 She Wolf Spoiler I have actually never heard this song in full. It's cute, I pretty much only like the chorus but nothing about it is actively bad, it's very mid to me. Pay Your Way In Pain Spoiler I am completely neutral on this song. Supermodel Spoiler Forever sickening! I think it's a great opener and she EATS this live IIRC. Chasing Amy - Spoiler Cute! The lyrics aren't amazing but I don't think they have to be, the instrumentation carries it through for me. The Beach Spoiler Why are they so damn quiet? It's giving Janet but not mixed well. Love Me Land Spoiler I have never listened to Zara but this is very cute. It convinces me to not skip the next time I see her on a playlist.
Stevie Posted August 26, 2021 Posted August 26, 2021 I think I'm out. It's what I deserve for daring to take a risk. I should've known ATRL doesn't like that.
Stevie Posted August 26, 2021 Posted August 26, 2021 Oh wait, WE have to rank too? I thought just the judges did that. Imagine how tired I am.
PinkBox Posted August 26, 2021 Posted August 26, 2021 Okay well, clearly this game isn't for me and my music interests are very different from ATRLers, so don't be offended if I didn't like your song!!! And I can confidently say that I have added a total of 0 songs to my library Apink - Dumhdurum This was a cute bop, the chorus was catchy BANKS - Gemini Feed EDIT: After listening to Bjork's song, I changed my mind, this was cute! Björk - Army of Me This was... inch resting! Not for me personally sorry BLACKPINK - How You Like That Ok bop, this classic and I don't even listen to K-Pop Céline Dion - It's All Coming Back to Me Now It's ok I guess!!! Charli XCX - Vroom Vroom I like parts of this a lot, but also hate some of it, especially the chorus. I guess I like it overall! Doja Cat - Go to Town WAY too repetitive, what is dis hunny. I mean, it's not TERRIBLE, but it's... annoying Hole - Celebrity Skin Ok classic!!! Jessie Ware - Spotlight Reading the critiques, I was expecting like a Toxic level classic, so I was underwhelmed, but I liked it overall!! Kari Faux - Medicated Another one that's really repetitive for me, and a bit too boring Kelela - A Message I don't mind slow songs, but this one wasn't interesting enough to pull it off and it was like one-note the entire time Kesha - Your Love Is My Drug Okay, finally, a cute bop! And it probably benefitted from being after all the repetitive boring songs! Liz Phair - 6'1" Why does she sound so bored recording this, I'm kind of screaming, she was in the studio like "let's get this over with girls". It was also kind of a fun song, but like not really Lorde - Tennis Court Ok, I liked this!! Very nice P!NK - Stupid Girls Omg this CLASSIC, EXACTLY!! Rita Ora - Anywhere Wait... why is this actually kinda cute Sam Smith - Young I was ready to give this last place when I saw Sam Smith, but it was actually really cute The Knife - Heartbeats Hate the vocals, the production sounds... suspicious TWICE - I Can't Stop Me Cute song!! Not the best but definitely not bad WILLOW - T r a n s p a r e n t s o u l This is okay, middle of the road tbh!!
ZORBIT Posted August 26, 2021 Posted August 26, 2021 I did expect mixed reception from the contestants but not me getting lashed by Moki on R1 already At least most of the Judges see the light
TayDine1989 Posted August 26, 2021 Posted August 26, 2021 Black Dresses - Peacesign!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is just noise sorry Not my type of music Charlie Puth - The Way I Am Sounds like any other Puth song (reminds me of How Long) however I really like the production on the verses. This is very 2016. Cute! Doja Cat - Cyber Sex This is so good Her delivery Added to my Liked Songs Doja Cat – Woman So smooth a very good introduction to Planet Her Erika de Casier – Drama This is okay. It feels long? Idk I love the first part but it went kinda downhill. Still cute tho! L Devine – Priorities A bop that gets better and better Madonna – Survival This is okay. Never heard of this song before. Maybe it will grow on me but as of now, it's just...okay Mitski – Happy This is just bland. The first minute is boring but at least it kinda gets better? Not a great second half tho but at least it progresses Pat Benatar – Heartbreaker SO EFFING GOOD WAITT I LOVE THIS Rihanna - Phresh Out the Runway this is the intro to Unapologetic? well doesn't sound like one. it feels more like a filler in the middle of the album Rihanna – SOS Now this is a Rihanna intro a classic Sade - Smooth Operator This is good wow. I am a sucker for these kind of songs. Sara Bareilles – Brave IDK why y'all hate this? It's a classic. The better Roar. The lyrics alone >>>>>> Shakira - She Wolf Another classic At this point of the playlist, I'm so confused which song I should put at the top spot There's no way I can properly rank this group of songs. The ranking depends on my mood obviously St. Vincent - Pay Your Way in Pain This is okay. There are some good parts SZA – Supermodel Cute. This is so chill The production Her delivery TeaMarrr - Chasing Amy Another cute and chill song Sounds like the previous song Wolf Alice - The Beach Boring track the instrumentals overpower her voice. i hate it it sounds more like she's chanting Zara Larsson - Love Me Land A good kind of generic pop songs. Feels more like a closing track

Auburn Posted August 26, 2021 Posted August 26, 2021 Black Dresses - Peacesign!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I’m trying to be open-minded but this is not it. Charlie Puth - The Way I Am it’s cute and basic, typical Charlie Doja Cat - Cyber Sex no Doja Cat - Woman hell no Erika de Casier - Drama yes queen L Devine - Priorities it’s a fun bop, but doesn’t give me everything I want Madonna - Survival this era was something different for her, but we loved it Mitski - Happy this came and passed Pat Benatar - Heartbreaker now this… is a classic Rihanna - Phresh Out the Runway aged like milk but still very fun Rihanna - SOS I’m sure you’ll be fine Sade - Smooth Operator it’s a mother****ing CLASSSSSSSIC ahhhhhh Sara Bareilles - Brave I like it Shakira - She Wolf another classic I fear St. Vincent - Pay Your Way in Pain this is overhated, I’ve always liked it, it’s messy in a good way SZA - Supermodel zzzz TeaMarrr - Chasing Amy hmmm, the indie girl voice pushes me away a bit Wolf Alice - The Beach it’s pretty good yeah Zara Larsson - Love Me Land omgggggg she ATE this up

nasa Posted August 26, 2021 Posted August 26, 2021 not me getting dragged and by @dweebz of all people maybe you're serving OUT - N/A for a reason
touya kinomoto Posted August 26, 2021 Posted August 26, 2021 Advice for new players: Do not be too obvious with your song choice. Control your reactions to critiques. Also enjoy the game and trust your taste. Sometimes, it can get you far.
