8. POP DIVA

 

7.63
From: Dejavu

 

Connoisseurs: romiskes, prettyinpink940, Meloetta Carey, Kyle-x, AMIT, Invisibility (10)
Doubters: Deadlocked (1)

 

Suilen: MID DIVA!!! (c) Maresia. Jokes aside, never really saw it for her. W FACE before W FACE was a thing. It was never winning, but it was in top 3 before the future newlyweds Maresia and Deadlocked swooped in.
D.D.D.: another iconic trashy banger.
Kyle-x: DIVAS UP!!!!!!!!! A CLASSIC!!!! The remix on Beach Mix goes sooooo crazy.
AMIT: a shouty classic.
Invisibility: The way this opens with her most gay catnip spoken intro ever (well, second only to W FACE) and leads into a DIRTY megabop whew.
Deadlocked: Elevated my headache to a migraine.

Now this one deserves an average of 8+ at least 

Maresia and Deadlocked are on the ban list for any future J-pop thread rates FYI

Poor Maresia who keeps asking me about the Showa rate

 

The next one is the only song in the rate to get more than one 11.

Listening now, it's giving trashy recession bop

7. KO-SO-KO-SO

 

8.10
From: JAPONESQUE

 

Connoisseurs: @Kyle-x, @Invisibility (11); Britneyfan09, AMIT (10)
Doubters: Deadlocked (3)

 

Suilen: It's cute. The way the title is stylized has always been a bit off-putting to me, though at least I understand what it means. The coochie-eatery in the MV...
D.D.D.: hot song but lacking climax.
Meloetta Carey: she's so charismatic a singer that this type of production doesn't overshadow her presence.
Kyle-x: She was taking us to the 80s with this Bananarama type serve and I was living for it.
AMIT: bops for days and I love the production.
Invisibility: Oh KO-SO-KO-SO try not to go too hard on these girls' scalps. Perfect production, perfect hooks and her personality at 11 with an uncharacteristic simple coolness she doesn't always lets us hear.
Deadlocked: Sounds like a Femme Fatale album track.

Not even top 5? This is truly heinous omfg.

Oh, the crimes that were committed by Deadlocked in the Britney discography rate... 

 

6. TOUCH DOWN

 

8.17
From: Bon Voyage

 

Connoisseurs: @AMIT (11); Britneyfan09, Meloetta Carey, Kyle-x, Suilen, Deadlocked (10)
Doubters: prettyinpink940 (2)

 

Suilen: That was a classic, that was a classic. While the majority of the album could be described as trashy bops, this song is legit.
D.D.D.: serving ****.
Meloetta Carey: I feel like a mashup with Victoria Beckham's "This Groove" would eat.
Kyle-x: She came to serve sex and cvnt and achieved both of them!
AMIT: a banger period.
Invisibility: This JoJo co-write banger with danger lurking underneath though. TAKE EM TO THE GROUND right now.
Deadlocked: WAIT A MINUUUUUUUUUUTE THIS IS A JOJO (Levesque) TRACK FROM HER CANCELLED 3RD ALBUM WHAAAAAAAAAAAT??????????? Wow. This was a candidate for the lead track of JoJo's 2010 album All I Want Is Everything (other options were Up Against The Wall and Keep Forgetting To Forget About You. KFTFAY was eventually chosen as the lead.) I had no idea this track made its way to Kumi. Wow.
 

 

Average: 6.34

 

44. Dreaming Now! (5.00)

22. IS THIS TRAP? (6.13)
19. 恋しくて (Missing You) (6.39)

This ballad heavy Top 5 though! Suki De, Anata Dake Ga, and In The Air all making it! I'm kinda here for it!

This album has aged hard but it was cute when it first dropped and is very nostalgic now
