Not Like The Movies Posted November 23, 2022 Posted November 23, 2022 I'm seeing some excellent songs! I wish I was in group B to give my man my #1.
Hug Posted November 23, 2022 Posted November 23, 2022 My first choice is in my group, and because I like celebrating songs I like instead of spiting people for also liking them, they'll most likely get my #1. Congrats to you <3

smholiv Posted November 23, 2022 Author Posted November 23, 2022 I'll prob limit the amount of times I use track lengths in the future - I didn't know that about Spotify!
DevonRoars Posted November 23, 2022 Posted November 23, 2022 The amount of cringe inducing pop in group A wow looks like some bops in here
Sanguine Posted November 23, 2022 Posted November 23, 2022 Troye Sivan - Wild: I hate him but this song is cute Shygirl - Woe: Best song of all time Kelsea Ballerini - Graveyard: It’s okay, pleasant, doesn’t do much for me Madonna - Music: One of her best songs Lianne La Havas - Bittersweet: Pretty Fergie - Fergalicious: Mid and the worst Dutchess single sorry but you’ll do well <3 Selena Gomez - Rare: It’s okay idk I sort of enjoy but something is really plain about it. The Charli demo was better Mariah Carey - Fantasy: Kind of a predictable choice but yeah it’s a major bop and you’ll probably win… deserved! Samia - Pool: Slightly cool, slightly boring. Interesting choice though Christina Perri - bluebird: No ma’am Frank Ocean - Nikes: Love the chipmunk elements Beabadoobee - Care: Best song of all time [2] The Veronicas - Untouched: Best song of all time [3] G-Idle - Tomboy: Queens… it’s cute Alvvays - Pharmacist: Best song of all time [4]
Fifteen Posted November 23, 2022 Posted November 23, 2022 wow looks like some bops in here I'll do it tomorrow x
Hug Posted November 23, 2022 Posted November 23, 2022 "Correct opinions only!" -- Red Velvet - Marionette Okay I like the spooky vibes of this, even if it's a bit out-of-season now. Still better than Christmas music! HAIM - Falling I...think this would go well as background noise in some Netflix movie? Erika da Casier - Drama I think the production on this is pretty, but I wish Erika was more interesting on it. Alexis Jordan - Happiness I think this is fun...I like the beat! Kylie Minogue - Magic A strong beginning to a (imo) great album! Michelle Branch - Everywhere Hey it's that sound people are trying to recapture now. I hope they stop... Kesha - Cannibal BEST SONG FROM HER BEST ALBUM YOU'RE ******* KIDDING...WINNER! Katy Perry - Roar Applause washed this...maybe not on the charts but quality-wise. Natalie Imbruglia - Torn This irrationally pisses me off. It's not a bad song I just hate it dfujkds Mariah Carey - Emotions Are you proud? That you won? That you know everyone will rate this well? You're not bored? Amy Winehouse - Rehab I can't be mad at this choice, the production is so damn good like wow. Mitski - Happy Oh I only know that art heauxs love this woman. I...will never be an art heaux. Ciara - Goodies I thought about asking if (feat.) tags counted to the word count. Guess they don't! I've always loved this song. Carly Rae Jepsen - Julien This isn't bad, but I NEVER got the hype around this song. I guess that's just my experience with Carly as an artist in general. Lizzy McAlpine - doomsday This sounds like something I should hate but I really enjoy it actually?
Seffers Posted November 23, 2022 Posted November 23, 2022 Round 1 - A Group Critiques! Red Velvet - Marionette this feels like peek-a-boo's grownup sister- the instrumental is really interesting, and of course the vocal queens devoured. HAIM - Falling HAIM has never been my thing.. and this is.. annoyingly long and one note. it's a major NO from me. Erika De Casier - Drama this was cute. I love how stripped down this production is. Alexis Jordan - Happiness YESSSSS! I love this song - I discovered it through Canada's Drag Race, and it slaps! Great choice. Kylie Minogue - Magic the absolute smash this song is.. you really came out SWINGING. straight to the TOP! Michelle Branch - Everywhere not my favorite from this group - the song itself isn't bad.. it's just not really my taste. Kesha - Cannibal I love early 2010s Kesha party music, and this is top tier. Katy Perry - Roar I would rather listen to nails on a chalkboard than this garbage ****. straight to the BOTTOM! Natalie Imbruglia - Torn this has a very calming feeling to it, almost like you're driving down a road with the windows down type of vibe. I love the instrumental! Mariah Carey - Emotions as much I want to drag you for choosing an obvious entry.. this song is jus too damn legendary. Amy Winehouse - Rehab a classic for rightful reasons. Amy was so talented <3 Mitski - Happy what kind of torture device is this song.. the instrumental randomly cranking to a 14 volume halfway through the song. girl abso-*******-lutely not now, not ever. Ciara - Goodies the way this still sounds so modern.. the absolute smash this song is... [2]. Carly Rae Jepsen - Julien come through key modulation! I actually really liked this, has a discoy-summer vibe to it. love love the instrumental. Lizzy McAlpine - doomsday I actually liked this, pleasantly surprised by how it was starting! she has a great voice.
Tom Vercetti Posted November 23, 2022 Posted November 23, 2022 Troye Sivan - Wild: Not bad at all. Shygirl - Woe: Pretty memorable. Kelsea Ballerini - Graveyard: Not into this. Madonna - Music: I don't have nostalgia for this song but it's fine. Lianne La Havas - Bittersweet: Wish her music was more interesting cuz she has a good voice. Fergie - Fergalicious: Great staple song. Surprised by its song length cuz it doesn't feel that long. Selena Gomez - Rare: Def sounds like a charli demo. Mariah Carey - Fantasy: Auto-win Samia - Pool: Takes like a minute before the song starts and it's not worth sitting though. Christina Perri - bluebird: Very boring, no thanks. Frank Ocean - Nikes: Don't care for the vocal effects but the 2nd half of the song gets good. Beabadoobee - Care: I keep hearing her songs but they never leave a lasting impression. The Veronicas - Untouched: I get the acclaim for this. It packs a punch. G-Idle - Tomboy: Doesn't have many appealing qualities for me. Alvvays - Pharmacist: Decent enough
taemin Posted November 23, 2022 Posted November 23, 2022 Troye Sivan - WILD: not bad but it did sound better back in 2015 Shygirl - Woe: she's mother for that... i don't know what else to say Kelsea Ballerini - Graveyard: this wasn't as bad as I expected it would be. a cute surprise Madonna - Music: BOPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP Lianne La Havas - Bittersweet: gorgeous Fergie - Fergalicious: it's good but i'm kinda over a certain type of smash hits being used on ATRL games Selena Gomez - Rare: her best opener and her best album not everybody gets it but I do Mariah Carey - Fantasy: now this is the type of smash hits i WANT to listen to on ATRL games Samia - Pool: i'm in awe. this is such a beautiful, how come i never heard of this? added it to my liked songs and i may or may not have shed a tear listening to it. this might be a risky entry so i congratulate whoever sent this. breathtaking Christina Perri - Bluebird: dog sh*t. Frank Ocean - Nikes: BEST SONG EVER. Beabadoobee - Care: heard this for the first time some weeks ago and it BOPS The Veronicas - Untouched: not a big fan of The Veronicas and this didn't convince me (G)I-DLE - TOMBOY: HHHHy7h5YURFHEVYHYERGY7ERVGEY7RVGRWYEHDCY7EWHCDWHEFY7RGVRFY7FVGY7VG7W7YFGWY7DECGWIQXKQWODH437TFHJWERFU8YH482UCHY7VRHFENFY7REBCENJIVBU83RIENG8TURF9MINBYVGNEBVN2EUFVHNCYTUIROEMGNREMIWDONTEURWIECWOMNUIRVOEFN9IYO0TP'LMO6UKN94VH8YGETWXFT67YWEVNIT,BO0TMB8VYGRBFECT6VW6VBCN3RUMYB65O0HUMY84HVT62ETVR3T6R7YVTNMO0N,O0NBM4Y83BRVTCV2CDRV3RGNVMHINM59UNBY73BRVCFT62VCT63VRGY7VBT8VGBT4BYVNUIRMEFC9INI49IRMEU8YVNVGY8U4NTWVW94VGNU84YBNV3UWRVNU83NVWU8GNBRTNBUIEWIEGTN Alvvays - Pharmacist: COLLAPSE

Kelsea Ballerini - Graveyard i like some of kelsea's music and this is such an interesting and kinda a risky choice. don't know if it will pay off, but at least it's kinda cute! Madonna - Music hmm! idk it's kinda meh :/ maybe i don't have any feelings attached to this. it's a bop but it's quite meh for me. pretty neutral. mixed. wow feelings are complicated!!! idk what's happening. the production towards the ends also kinda annoying. Lianne La Havas - Bittersweet gorgeous voice, gorgeous song! love miss lianne la havas, what a mother. Fergie - Fergalicious big bop as the kids say. love when AMAZING classics were sent in the song sending game. like, it's just so good. and i love to hear it every time Selena Gomez - Rare i think this was like one of the standouts from the album when i first heard it. it's cute and literally so harmless. what a cute bop, selena did that. Mariah Carey - Fantasy big bop as the kids say. love when AMAZING classics were sent in the song sending game. like, it's just so good. and i love to hear it every time [2] i hear winner.... congratulations omg.

Frank Ocean - Nikes sorry but this is quite boring for me wait okay yea the second part of the song is quite a serve. thank god for that part!

Staryu Posted November 23, 2022 Posted November 23, 2022 Let me start by saying y'all sent quite a few of my favorite songs, like 3 or 4 here would probably be on my top 100 fave songs of all time list Red Velvet - Marionette I like it's vibe, it's kind of dark and circus-y, it paints a fun mental picture and is kind of a bop too. HAIM - Falling One of my favorite HAIM songs Erika De Casier - Drama A chill vibe, a lovely bop, a great gaymers discovery Alexis Jordan - Happiness It's fun and bops, a little generic feeling but I bop Kylie Minogue - Magic Kylie's best song since Get Outta My Way tbh Michelle Branch - Everywhere A classic, I remember hearing this song and getting in my feels as a young teen, very nostalgic for me Kesha - Cannibal A big bop, queen of rap Katy Perry - Roar It's still cute, not amazing, but will always be iconic for the vs. Gaga stuff and MaRy's Brave prediction Natalie Imbruglia - Torn Such a classic, an amazing song, one of the best from the 90s, still can't believe it's a cover song though Mariah Carey - Emotions Perfect song, vocals, classic, bop, everything etc Amy Winehouse - Rehab I still love Amy, listening to her is bittersweet, this is a classic to me Mitski - Happy I hate the danky sounding saxophone? noise in this song, it hurts my ears, other than that it's fine Ciara - Goodies Another classic crunk n' b masterpiece, even Petey is tolerable Carly Rae Jepsen - Julien One of my favorite Carly songs, lucky you have me here Lizzy McAlpine - doomsday This was nice, I liked it and her voice and the guitar, but it's at a disadvantage b/c idk her or this song at all and it's sent here with so many songs I know and love already, hard to compete
Julia Fox Posted November 23, 2022 Posted November 23, 2022 (edited) Julia’s FACTS x Red Velvet - Marionette I usually hate k pop but this song is interesting enough to caught my attention and not hating it. Love the atmosphere it has tho like that spooky vibe because it definitely stands out. So good job ig? HAIM - Falling They have always been hit or miss for me. And this is a hit x far from being my fave here though but it’s fine x Erika da Casier - Drama I'm a fool for sweet songs with garage beats and delicate voices so I really love this! I think Pink Pantheress does it better but anyway still good! Alexis Jordan - Happiness This is the girl from Got 2 Luv U? Whew loved that song! This not that much. I mean it sounds dated and uninspired but it’s not bad? it has some interesting elements but that’s it Kylie Minogue - Magic This is so cute and gay tbh always liked it but never loved it tho Michelle Branch - Everywhere The early 2000's rock pop was a good time to be alive! But in retrospective now a lot of those songs sounds very samey. But this is cute x Kesha - Cannibal Iconic and one of the best camp songs made ever! There’s a reason why this gained traction on TikTok and had a resurgence on charts without being a single x good job sweetie Katy Perry - Roar Never liked this kinder garden bop tbh Natalie Imbruglia - Torn This is urethral and beautiful! Always loved this since I was a baby since my mom used to listen to this song a lot x Mariah Carey - Emotions Iconic and groundbreaking! That whistle notes are immaculate… got me feeling emotions and not the one were I feel good cos I don’t feel bad you know? REAL EMOTIONS Amy Winehouse - Rehab Not my fave song by her but I like it. It’s kind of shady in retrospective and it’s iconic. It takes me back when it was released and it was all over MTV… good song! Mitski - Happy I’m an artsy indie alternative heaux gal so this is for me. It’s far from being my fave Mitski song tbh but I remember listening to this album a lot on 2019 when I was depressed af so I have a lot of things attached to this somehow. So I’m gonna help you to not be eliminated because you don’t deserve it Ciara - Goodies This is so fun and sexy! Love this! Carly Rae Jepsen - Julien Always loved this infectious and cute bop x Lizzy McAlpine - doomsday this is beautiful! as I stated before I’m an artsy indie alternative faux gal so this was made for me and I’ll try to save you from took a risk. You are brave x Edited November 23, 2022 by Julia Fox

Alvvays - Pharmacist - it's alright. ♥
Rotunda Posted November 23, 2022 Posted November 23, 2022 Marionette - The “Haunted Nutcracker” vibe of the song is nice, but I find myself immediately forgetting what I listened to by the time it’s over. Falling - This isn’t my favorite HAIM track but it’s pleasant enough. Drama - I still haven’t gotten fully aboard the Erika train like some of the other Games Section girlies have, but I do like this. Happiness - Not the Drag Race Canada song. Anyway this sounds like a demo that would later be passed on to Little Mix. Magic - Definitely one of the highlights from this album Everywhere - Wow you really pulled this from the recesses of my mind. Excellent. Cannibal - I’ve never really been as enamored with Old-School Kesha as the rest of ATRL. This is kinda whatever to me. Roar - I was obsessed with the lyric video for this as a kid. Not my favorite Katy song but it holds up well. Torn - Such a great, quintessential 90s song Emotions - There are a few Mariah songs I like more, but a definite classic Rehab - Winner. Happy - I wasn’t previously familiar with this track, but it definitely works for me. Good job. Goodies - I was so obsessed with this song in 9th grade for some reason. Will be ranked very well. A Rotunda-specific Classic. Julien - This has never been a stand-out Carly track for me, but this was pleasant enough. Doomsday - Phoebe already has daughters I see. The production is a little “grander” than I would like for a track like this, but still a nice entry.
