Wonder Girls - Baby Don't Play: annoying and meh. Sorry 

 

Florence + The Machine - Dog Days Are Over: I realized I’m more a HB,HB,HB/HAH kind of girl so yeah this isn’t for me 

 

Spice Girls - Say You'll Be There: it becomes a little bit repetitive after the first chorus ends but it still my favorite Spice Girls song if that means something (?)

[Element]

Element's Critiques

Chloe x Halle - Do It: Definitely a modern classic for the girls and the gays. It's good.

Electric Indigo - The Paper Kites: This was pleasant but a bit monotone and forgettable :(

Aly & AJ - Potential Breakup Song: Hate you for snatching this. Literally one of the best songs EVER!!! It has had such a grip on me for 15 years and it isn't letting go.

Florence + The Machine - Shake it Out: I feel like I have to be in a very specific mood for her voice, and I'm not crazy for it rn. The chorus is anthemic and memorable tho.

Chloe x Halle - Ungodly Hour: This is still so sultry and classy and excellent. Perhaps their best song??

Pussycat Dolls - When I Grow Up: When I look at the entries submitted in this group, I feel like almost all of them represent the strongest songs by their groups. WIGU is eclipsed my multiple PCD songs for me, so that is going to work against my ranking of it. It's fun but I'm surprised you didn't send Buttons or Don't Cha tbh.

Cocteau Twins - Cherry Colored Funk: Oh wow I've never heard this before but it's VERY beautiful!! I enjoyed it immensely.

Destiny's Child - Say My Name: I mean.... slay. If you don't win, I'll be shocked. (ALSO, whoever sent Survivor over Lose My Breath in Group B... why?)

Fleetwood Mac - Dreams: A lovely classic! One of my FM faves along with Little Lies.

Wonder Girls - Baby Don't Play: It's a nice song, but kind of just there for me.

Florence + The Machine - Dog Days Are Over: Predictable entry, but the stronger Florence song for me. What a journey she took us on throughout this song tbh.

Spice Girls - Say You'll Be There: Probably their strongest single. It has a great melody and that feeling of 90s nostalgic classic. Enjoyed it!

[ATRL Username]

Selena Gomez & The Scene - Love You Like a Love Song: it's okay, good by her standards

LOONA / Odd Eye Circle - Girl Front: amazing and lovely

No Doubt - Don't Speak: would have preferred any of their other singles, it's fine

Destiny's Child - Survivor: it's not bad but it's just there for me

Le Sserafim - Antifragile: grew on me tbh, it's a fun listen, although the title is still dumb af

Red Velvet - Russian Roulette: such a bop

Wonder Girls - I Feel You: maybe I need nostalgia to enjoy this cuz I don't like it very much

Danity Kane - Damaged: a gay classic

Little Mix - Sweet Melody: it's not bad but it's just there for me [2]

Red Velvet - Automatic: i like this but greatly prefer the other song by them

Goose House - 光るなら: not really working for me in this round tbh

Silk City - Electricity (feat. Dua Lipa): it's not bad but it's just there for me [3]

[thecptz]

Chloe x Halle - Do It

oh wow what a great way to start the round... like your mind when you randomize the playlist or idk maybe you arrange it urself but AMAZING! god, this song is just so good.. vibey, catchy, it's everything and i LOVE it so much. PERIOD!

 

Electric Indigo - The Paper Kites

this is actually kinda a vibe and i'm digging it! it's just that when looking at all the entries, this might be a little too middle of the road-ish and it might be overshadowed but at least i enjoyed it and had this been sent in like another round, i think i would rank it higher for sure.

 

Aly & AJ - Potential Breakup Song

i was still not cultured when this version was release therefore the explicit version is the one that i kinda prefer, giggles. however, we're judging this version and oh wow, it's still so good. what an iconic song!

 

Florence + The Machine - Shake it Out

omg it keeps getting better. i really enjoyed this song and i just love how florence always can do such a grand song, like in term of the cinematic feeling. and it's just so good??? like it makes me feeling excited and i feel like shaking all the demons OFF!! WHEW!!!

 

Chloe x Halle - Ungodly Hour

oh now this. NOW THIS. BEST SONG EVER. i have nothing else to say but like... MY WINNER. oh my god.

 

Pussycat Dolls - When I Grow Up

it's a classic but i've never really cared about this like yea i enjoyed it and it's fun but it's just very okay for me and i think it's been like that for a long time  there's nothing wrong w ur entry, it's w me!! it's my fault!

 

Cocteau Twins - Cherry Colored Funk

still can't believe that this was released in the 90s. they were truly ahead of their times. this is the track that i didn't care much before but i kinda enjoy it more now and i just find it super interesting and very nice to listen to. dk how it's gonna do in my rankings tho~

 

Destiny's Child - Say My Name

a cute classic.. at first i was vibing w it but it kinda got boring a bit after listening for almost of it. maybe i rlly need to be in the mood to sit and listen to this song cause like i used to enjoy it more than this

 

Fleetwood Mac - Dreams

another cute classic.. this is such a roadtrip song like when you just sit in the car and roll the window down and listen to this song, whew! anyways, yea i enjoyed this a lot and if everywhere was submitted, WHEW! BUT, i enjoyed this!!

 

Wonder Girls - Baby Don't Play

i think this is just okay for me and i'm not a kpop hater!! but it's just okay and compared to these songs, whew, you might be in a big trouble but then i haven't been reading others comments so idk. like it's cute but it's just THERE!

 

Florence + The Machine - Dog Days Are Over

SHAKES!!! i love this song so much. a better florence song in this round but like saying that, i will still prob rank both pretty high. like omg, this song, AHHHHH, amazing. period???? YUP. mother.

 

Spice Girls - Say You'll Be There

wait this actually sounds better than i realized, gasps... tbh i thought it would be more boring but i was just bopping my head throughout the song, lmao. wow how time has changed me!! anyways, yes, very cute! a cute ending to the round hehe
