thecptz Posted April 3, 2023 Author Posted April 3, 2023 CRITIQUES ROUND 11 Spoiler On 3/31/2023 at 7:42 AM, Sanguine said: ROUND ELEVEN CRITIQUES Björk - It's Oh So Quiet: Considering this is literally a cover of a 1950's song, no questions theme-wise. I always loved this too! It's such a random song for her I understand why a lot of her fans pan though nnnn Carly Rae Jepsen - When I Needed You: Def feels like a modern interpretation of 80s Synthpop. An underrated Emotion cut!! One of her few songs where the verses outshine the chorus Christina Aguilera - Back in the Day: Figured you would go for Back to Basics again, and it's a fit. She even references old soul and Jazz artists in the intro! Song is a bop, I like the chorus Demi Lovato - Got Dynamite: It's more of an influence here than something that takes over the song, but still works. It goes hard too FKA twigs - Mothercreep: I can hear the influence in a modern context. Amazingggg song it's equally eerie and catchy Miley Cyrus - Plastic Hearts: Good callback to 80s New Wave. My favorite on the album! Solange - T.O.N.Y.: Yeah it's kinda giving Minnie Riperton'd 60s Soul but Poppier. I went back and forth on the song for a bit but liked it by the hook @CBC @Staryu @Auburn @Noah @Touch It @wish @Not Like The Movies On 3/31/2023 at 7:53 PM, Hikari said: h』『i』『k』『a』『r』『i』 『h』『a』『s』 『s』『h』『*』『t』 『t』『o』 『s』『a』『y』 Reveal hidden contents Bjork - It's Oh So Quiet Very much on point with the theme, you'd either love or hate this cover. I think it was a safe choice. Carly Rae Jepsen - When I Needed You I can definitely hear some 80s feels in this song. This aged better than most of the songs in the album. Christina Aguilera - Back in the Day A smart choice of course! The chorus was catchier than the verses but it was good enough for me to keep listening. Demi Lovato - Got Dynamite That was harder and grittier than I was expecting and it's actually very impressive considering her age here. FKA twigs - Mothercreep Very eclectic, somehow a lil bit chaotic but still laced with that twigs style. Enjoyed it more than I thought I would. Miley Cyrus - Plastic Hearts Very new wave 80s indeed, modernized without sounding dated. Aged better than Prisoner. Solange - T.O.N.Y. Yeah I can hear the motown influence in this song. It grew on the second listen, it sounded amazing.

I’ve heard this on so many commercials and didn’t know this was Bjork. It’s good, but very annoying. Carly Rae Jepsen - When I Needed You Do I like it? It fits the 80s, but doesn’t fit my heart. Christina Aguilera - Back in the Day Note: While it fits the round, I disagree with your explanation assessment of it. Do I like it? Yes, I really liked her voice on this. Demi Lovato - Got Dynamite Do I like it? I like the choruses and the bridge better than the verses. FKA twigs - Mothercreep Do I like it? I don’t hate it, but it’s not my favorite. Miley Cyrus - Plastic Hearts Do I like it? I’m not the biggest fan of the raspy nature of her voice in the song, but otherwise, I did really enjoy it. Solange - T.O.N.Y. Do I like it? I really enjoyed this. Probably my favorite Solange song you’ve exposed me to! On 4/1/2023 at 6:43 PM, Tom Vercetti said: Euterpe'd Edition. You all did good on the theme. Personal taste however.... Bjork - It's Oh So Quiet: Always hated this cover as the shhh's annoys me, sorry. Carly Rae Jepsen - When I Needed You: Unpopular opinion but I never liked this song because of the chorus. Christina Aguilera - Back in the Day: Really enjoyed this one. Demi Lovato - Got Dynamite: Think this is my favorite demi song so far. A great surprise. FKA twigs - Mothercreep: It's okay. Kinda my least fave on her ep. Miley Cyrus - Plastic Hearts: It's fine yea. Right album to choose 80s from. Solange - T.O.N.Y.: This game really introduced me to a lot of songs from her I didn't know beforehand. It's decent enough. @CBC @Staryu @Auburn @Noah @Touch It @wish @Not Like The Movies On 4/2/2023 at 10:30 AM, Element said: ELEMENT'S CRITIQUES Bjork - It's Oh So Quiet A unique and excellent submission for the theme! I actually quite liked this??? Like it's so camp and fun and different for her. There are some cringey moments for sure but I really appreciate what she did here. Carly Rae Jepsen - When I Needed You I think it's a great representation of the 80s decade for sure. Kind of a basic era to pick but oh well! I like this song enough... like if I heard it on the radio, I wouldn't be mad. But I don't think I would add it to my playlist. Christina Aguilera - Back in the Day I'm completely lost with this one sonically tbh. I don't see 60s/70s in it... it feels more 90s to me?? I did appreciate the lyrical references to past eras. Ummm what else do I have to say. The song is fun enough but not high on my list this round. Demi Lovato - Got Dynamite You hit the nail on the head with this entry!! Definitely encapsulates 90s grunge sound and production. I've never heard this before but am pleased to say that I enjoyed it a lot! Demi has always sounded great and this style suits them well. FKA twigs - Mothercreep Definitely a genre that I'm not as familiar with, so I struggled with this one. I did a little research and I can hear the influences for sure, but the 90s songs felt calmer overall. The modern electronic aspects kind of distort the time traveling aspect for me. For personal taste - there are parts of this that are cool but other parts where I was just not vibing at all. A bit too experimental for me, I fear. Miley Cyrus - Plastic Hearts This was arguably my favorite song on PH besides Midnight Sky. It's honestly soooo fun and fresh and catchy. She should have pushed it as a single! Thematically, I'm content but find other entries to be a bit stronger. Solange - T.O.N.Y. This was pretty good for both categories for me! @CBC @Staryu @Auburn @Noah @Touch It @wish @Not Like The Movies
