wishtie's critiques ?

 

Amber Mark - FOMO

okayyyy I enjoyed this! A very solid bop, I’m gonna save it

 

Hatchie - Til We Run Out of Air

this is very uwu… a gorgeous and romantic indie track. just ughhh :weeps:

 

SVRCINA - A Little Bit Like Love

HELP it really is giving Caroline Polachek reject? :bibliahh: but it’s a good thing for you cause that’s right up my alley… saved & slayed

 

Ethel Cain - Televangelism 

this just made me tear up :deadbanana4: beautiful piano track. but lemme try to save you bc you’re in danger girl

 

Magdalena Bay - Secrets (Your Fire)

best single on Mercurial World i’m sorry

 

Kylie Minogue - Real Groove

Fun cute generic dance pop. It’s just not something I connect with though, I much prefer her older material. This album is very autopilot for me

 

Magdalena Bay - Chaeri

it’s 100% a good song but it’s low key overrated from this album? still pretty though & amazing production

 

Sudan Archives - NBPQ (Topless)

hmm this is definitely ambitious. i had to go back and start all over cause it was a lot to process at first. i can genuinely see this growing on me but right now it sounds like a lot of haphazard ideas. the flow is kinda odd, like the sections aren't meshing with each other :dancehall:

 

EDIT: okay i listened again and it's growing on me already nnnn

 

Beabadoobee - Sunny Day

very pretty & sweet track <3 it’s not my favorite here but still quite good

 

Rina Sawayama - Imagining

she tore… best song on HTG :mandown: it’s grown on me so much since the last time this got submitted

 

Foxes - Sister Ray

don’t hate me but this is kinda overrated nnn and like the production/mixing is kinda flat which takes away from the “explosive euphoric” vibe she’s going for

 

Amber Mark - What It Is

another really solid track from Amber! i’m sleeping on this album so hard lkjsdljks lemme listen this weekend

 

Weyes Blood - Grapevine

still haven't listened to this album :rip: anyway this was very pretty, i really enjoyed it

Posted

wait this one was so hard to rank :deadbanana4: I like half of these songs equally

Posted

I'm sorry I really don't mean to sound harsh, but y'all know 2020+ songs are NOT for me, I listen to old people!!!!

 

Ethel Cain - American Teenager

It was nice, kind of generic and same-y but definitely not bad

 

Carly Rae Jepsen - Talking To Yourself

I'm a Carly hater, was ready to hate this and call it overrated and generic, and while it is generic, it was also kinda cute

 

Yeule - Don't Be So Hard On Your Own Beauty

I... really did not care for this at ALL, it almost made me mad how it was... I honestly don't have any words to describe bit because of how plain this was

 

Ayra Starr - Bloody Samaritan

Ok this is a bop, I stan

 

Umi - whatever u like

It's fine, didn't hate it

 

Yeule - Bites On My Neck

I was afraid of this after the first Yeule song... and I was correct. It definitely wasn't as plain as the other one, but WAY more annoying, so idk which one was worst tbh, I just wanted to say ta yeule to her im sorry, I'm sure she's a nice girl

 

Rina Sawayama - Frankenstein

Damn y'all really love this girl.. and this song was pretty good, it was kinda unique and had a great vibe, kept me interested

 

Allie X - Susie Save Your Love

Didn't really care for this, but not bad either

 

Hatchie - Quicksand

This was cute!

 

Ravyn Lenae - Inside Out

Indifferent at first, but then it switched up and I got interested

 

Rochelle Jordan - All Along

I liked this, loved the vibe

 

Allie X - Devil I Know

Cute too, liked the vibe as well

 

Adam Lambert - Velvet

Definitely an interesting choice!

Amber Mark - FOMO

whew... big bop as the kids say. i don't think this is my favorites from the album. despite saying that, i still enjoy it. i don't know how it's gonna do on my rankings but it's a great start to this round YES!

 

Hatchie - Til We Run Out of Air

god... i just love this song so much. like this is kinda underrated in the album and it deserves more spotlight. it's just so emotional and it makes me think of EVERYTHING, dreaming, yearning :weeps: she rlly did that w sunday song and til we run out of air :heart2:

 

SVRCINA - A Little Bit Like Love

ooh the production is kinda cool. the can you feel the.... RUSH! i rlly love that part lmao. the pre-chorus ATE tbh. her voice is so familiar. idk but it sounds like someone i can't remember!! anyways, this is a cute submission. a cute lil entry~

 

Ethel Cain - Televangelism 

:weeps: this is for sure an interesting choice. it's a risky one for sure. but like..... strangers and gibson girl are literally right there. this is a good instrumental song but it feels like a waste of mother cain submission ngl. i'm SAD! at least it's a standout entry, that's for sure. but in a good way or a bad way, idk!!

 

Magdalena Bay - Secrets (Your Fire)

i feel like i'm in space listening to this song. it's just so cool and literally keeps getting better and better. idk how they did it but they did THAT. serving, period, ATE, yup, HOORAY!

 

Kylie Minogue - Real Groove

OH ANOTHER BIG BOP! this is just pure fun and kylie really does disco so good. the chorus is so addictive and i used to not like this song but the chorus is rlly what makes me see the light :alexz: god, so good!

 

Magdalena Bay - Chaeri

this is kinda underwhelming compared to secrets :katie: idk how to feel! but yea i'm left feeling a bit HMM after listening to this.

 

Sudan Archives - NBPQ (Topless)

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH OMG THIS IS SO GOOD. queen of telling stories :clap3: and the production of this song is amazing. everything is interesting and it's just chefs kiss :kiss: literally so good i'm fainting!

 

Beabadoobee - Sunny Day

oh this is my WINNER :1stplace: my favorite song from the album and probs from her too like.... i have no words. best song ever.

 

Rina Sawayama - Imagining

i just think that this album just might not be for me since i don't really vibe with lots of songs and this is another track that i'm just... well i just don't get it. maybe this is a song for hot people and i'm not hot so. but yea. that's my opinion on this song!!!

 

Foxes - Sister Ray

SHE INVENTED DANCING W THIS SONG. in LOVE with this song and it still sounds fresh now after i hadn't listened to it for quite a while. the power that sister ray has on me, i believe that GEMINI ITS YOUR TOUCH YASSSSS #GeminiSquad

 

Amber Mark - What It Is

love her voice in this song and everything just makes the song very interesting. or maybe i'm just biased cause i rlly like this song and it just slaps slaps slaps. YES!

 

Weyes Blood - Grapevine

a beautiful ending :clap3: she MOTHERED

Posted (edited)

Amber Mark - FOMO

i find her album pretty overrated but this is one of the better songs, this round is really strong so it ended up being one of my lowest anyway :rip:

 

Hatchie - Til We Run Out of Air

AOTY but not one of my faves, still a great song

 

SVRCINA - A Little Bit Like Love

don't really like this

 

Ethel Cain - Televangelism

Magdalena Bay - Chaeri

Sudan Archives - NBPQ (Topless)

amazing song, i prefer the first half but it's still 10/10 overall

 

Beabadoobee - Sunny Day

her best song behind Talk :jonny5: literally so good

 

Rina Sawayama - Imagining

just as good as anything Sawayama so idk why people acted like the album was that bad

 

Foxes - Sister Ray

Weyes Blood - Grapevine

My Thoughts 

 

Ethel Cain - American Teenager - It's a good song, it's not as amazing like some people say but it's fine

 

Carly Rae Jepsen - Talking To Yourself - Such a fun song, I really like this. She does dance pop better than most girls that look like her. 

 

Yeule - Don't Be So Hard On Your Own Beauty - It's an interesting song. Not bad. I like it.  

 

Ayra Starr - Bloody Samaritan - oh you know I have to stan this excellence. a BANGER period. More flavour than some basic songs in this lineup. 

 

Umi - whatever u like - wow this song is such a bop, I would love to hear her and SZA on a song together, that would be magical. I am loving this entry, I need to listen to this full album asap. 

 

Yeule - Bites On My Neck - This song is an experience. There are some parts I really love because the production is fascinating but then there are parts I wish they would get rid of like the screaming parts. But I do like this song lots. 

 

Rina Sawayama - Frankenstein - This is alright. I don't hate it but it's just there for me personally. 

 

Allie X - Susie Save Your Love - Yes a song I know and a song I like. 

 

Hatchie - Quicksand - A really good song. 

 

Ravyn Lenae - Inside Out - One of the best songs of the year, a complete masterpiece. It feels like a warm cozy hug. Just very soothing and comforting, the vocal performance is spectacular. Just pure excellence. 

 

Rochelle Jordan - All Along - YOU WIN! Love love love this BANGER! WHEWW, I want her and Solange to collab!! 

 

Allie X - Devil I Know - This is alright, not a big fan of it but it's not awful. 

 

Adam Lambert - Velvet  - Adam is very talented and deserves to be more successful, with that being said, this song is cute.
