Picture yourself walking into a club as the introductory horns of "Try Again" permeate throughout the room. You're in a state of euphoria. You're in control. You can dance your heart out with your gurls, or maybe get down with that beautiful man over by the bar who's casting his gaze your way. The song transports you to another realm of power and confidence, and the rhythm consumes your body. The year is 2021. A tween girl watches the music video for "Try Again" and is amazed at how catchy and futuristic this two-decade old song is. Aaliyah's smooth hip-hop choreo throughout the video is tailor-made for a TikTok viral trend. She was truly ahead of her time, and our tween MUST bring it to everyone's attention. This song is as timeless as dance itself.

Taylor Swift - Dancing with Our Hands Tied Tinashe - All Hands on Deck Troye Sivan - My My My! Spoiler oh my my my I die every night with bagels oh my my my I'm living for bagels' every move Whitney Houston - It's Not Right But It's Okay (Thunderpuss Remix) Spoiler Cited by Wikipedia : Matt Stopera and Brian Galindo from BuzzFeed noted on the Thunderpuss Remix, that "aside from being a essential gay dance floor classic, this track proves how a good remix can elevate a song from good to ICONIC."

Staryu Posted November 13, 2021 Posted November 13, 2021 Hi, my crits are kinda pointless this round, dance/fun music is my favorite kind of music, you all succeeded for me, no elims this round! Aaliyah - Try Again Classic, big bop, don't even need to read your essay Billie Eilish - Oxytocin An experience, hearing this for the first time I thought it was crazy and different and wanted to dance around like the cyber goths under the bridge. Charli XCX - Roll with Me Love this song, one of my faves from Charli, extremely danceable, a big bop Chloe x Halle - Thunder Was scared at first but when the beat kicks in I was swaying my hips, I can see this in a dark club, lights flashing, sexy dancing King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard - Interior People Yeah this is a different kind of dancing mood, festival-y like you said. Kind of a happy hippie dancing, it's cute. Miley Cyrus - 4x4 I thought you might send Hoedown Throwdown for this round, but I feel like this song is kind of a sister to that. It's a big country pop bop, it's very catchy and boot stompy. Red Velvet - Pose Very fun bop, I bopped during the whole song tbh Shakira - She Wolf Shakira at her best and it's my favorite Shakira song, sexy and dancey, the video Shania Twain - That Don't Impress Me Much A classic country pop bop, when I was a kid at Skateland this song came on and people were dancing with their skates on and this one girl fell over the side railing and chipped a tooth, fun bop tho Sufjan Stevens - Video Game This is my favorite Sufjan song I've ever heard, very chill bop Taylor Swift - Dancing with Our Hands Tied My 2nd favorite song from reputa, very cute, middle school dance vibes Tinashe - All Hands on Deck All hands on DICK love this bop, Tinsahe had a few great options for this round and this is definitely one of them Troye Sivan - My My My! My favorite Troye song fun gay bop Whitney Houston - It's Not Right But It's Okay (Thunderpuss Remix) Is this the best remix of all time? Possibly.

thecptz Posted November 13, 2021 Author Posted November 13, 2021 wow thank you for your kindness, judge madonna @Staryu
mokitsu Posted November 13, 2021 Posted November 13, 2021 methinks the judge timeframe should be limited to 12 hours
Navyofbadgals Posted November 13, 2021 Posted November 13, 2021 Spoiler Aaliyah - with the funky electro beat and some of the lyrics in the voice over, it's hard to say that doesn't fit the theme. That said.. I did not like this at all. The lyrics are just very cringy with how on the nose they are with the empowerment and it feels like they had a cool beat and just needed to put sumn relatable over it.. cause this does not feel like it fits with each other. Personally my least fav aaliyah song you sent so far but i'm fairly certain i'll be the only judge feeling this way so x Billie Eilish - didn't like this song at first but it's a lot of fun and one of her most unique songs, without ever losing the essence of Billie. Idk if it's a song i'd dance to.. but it makes me.. want to move at least? so that's good enough. Great song anyways Charli XCX - kinda felt like giving you a perfect score already after you were done so wrong last round, but you're making it easy for me. This is super infectious and fun and one of the most dance-able tracks this round. Lots of fun without ever feeling like a generic dance cut. Great job Chloe X Halle - wow i will say i did not know they had this so didn't expect it either. sounds club/dance ready so the challenge is more than met. Props also for sending sumn diff for CxH than their usual sound. that said i do think this kinda felt at times too generic, but it's still somewhat enjoyable King Gizzard - hold ON.. this is absolutely excellent???? super dance-able and def festival ready Miley Cyrus - i mean.. i guess. This fits but I think you had other options.. that were slightly better than this. This just has not aged all that well but it fits the challenge so there's that! Red Velvet - cute! Lots of fun and infectious moments. I'm not crazy over it, but there's nothing here that I really hate so x Shakira - felt like you could've sent nearly any song for this round with Shakira, but happy you sent this absolute classic. Incredible song and is somehow even better now than it was all those years ago. Just a really cool and unique pop song Shania Twain - this could be so corny too.. but it's just too much of a classic that I can't help but bop. Insanely fun song Sufjan Stevens - sadly I did.. not connect with this really. I applaud you for sending something that does feel like it fits, esp with your artist, but this just does nothing to me. Personally not a fan Taylor Swift - the best reputation song, END OF DISCUSSION!! absolutely excellent Tinashe - MASSIVE classic i fear (the iggyless version only tho) Still one of her best, we love a bop Troye Sivan - so.. what are you gonna do after this round now that you sent his absolute best song? Whitney Houston - would've prolly given this a really bad score, but after your write up I'm forced to give it a perfect score I have principles after all and I do hate certain ppl! real talk this is a song I'd go the craziest over in a club.. kinda think you met the challenge the best out of anyone.. @Element @shelven @clue @Not Like The Movies @Drifloon @boys @mokitsu @Opulent @Auburn @Noah @Rence @Tom Vercetti @luckystrike @PinkBox
Dessy Posted November 13, 2021 Posted November 13, 2021 Spoiler Idk how to really describe the level of how much i felt like dancing so enjoy these crits! Aaliyah - Try Again I moved and I loved it. Solid choice. That’s said, it’s definitely not topping the danceability for me after listening to every song. Billie Eilish - Oxytocin This industrial bop!! We have no choice but to move! Charli XCX - Roll with Me Is it danceable? Absolutely. Is it good? Kinda. Chloe x Halle - Thunder Hmm, I had to do a double-take with this song to get what you’re talking about and I’ve determined that it is indeed worthy. A great choice! King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard - Interior People Congrats, you sent another slay. Miley Cyrus - 4x4 I forgot this existed. A strong choice imo. Red Velvet - Pose I don’t think you could ever go wrong here. Best song so far. Shakira - She Wolf OOOOOOMMMMMMMMGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG YYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSS Shania Twain - That Don't Impress Me Much Is it danceable? Absolutely. Is it good? It's decent, I guess. Sufjan Stevens - Video Game It’s somewhat there I guess. This song is great to me so maybe that’ll save you. Taylor Swift - Dancing with Our Hands Tied Thank god it’s not SIO! I think this is a nice vibe for this round Tinashe - All Hands on Deck Ooo I definitely like this choice. Well done. Troye Sivan - My My My! Thank god it’s not DTT! BOP! Whitney Houston - It's Not Right But It's Okay (Thunderpuss Remix) This… is kinda the best on-theme song here but this version of the song is mid.
