Sanguine Posted April 10, 2023 Posted April 10, 2023 ROUND THIRTEEN CRITIQUES Björk - Hidden Place (from Vespertine): So intricate and gorgeous. One of her very best! Definitely the entry here that really “brought it” the most so kudos for that Christina Aguilera - Still Dirrty (from Back to Basics): The instrumental to this sounds like you left your car running at the circus and everything else is all over the place so I am just… not a fan at all Demi Lovato - Every Time You Lie (from Here We Go Again): Such a bop! Jazz Pop queen, ate this man up at only sixteen Miley Cyrus - WTF Do I Know (from Plastic Hearts): Haven’t listened to this one in a while, it’s different and more punky than I remembered? Pretty good, but hoped it would hit harder Solange - Don't You Wait (from A Seat at the Table): One of my faves on ASATT!! True EP vibes. The production is so punchy and I love the pre-/chorus melody and harmonies @CBC @Auburn @Noah @wish @Not Like The Movies
Tom Vercetti Posted April 10, 2023 Posted April 10, 2023 Björk - Hidden Place (from Vespertine): The only classic song here. You will be rewarded for this. Christina Aguilera - Still Dirrty (from Back to Basics): A bit disappointing. Like where are the hits? This is not even close as good as its prequel i'm afraid. Demi Lovato - Every Time You Lie (from Here We Go Again): Similar to Xtina, I feel there were stronger opportunities available. This just sounds like random filler to me and not as appealing as Got Dynamite from this same album. Miley Cyrus - WTF Do I Know (from Plastic Hearts): It's okay. Not really into how shouty she sounds with her current voice. Song does get better as it goes on so there's that. Solange - Don't You Wait (from A Seat at the Table): It's good enough. Not amazing but it has interesting enough production to stand out compared to some of her competition. @CBC @Auburn @Noah @wish @Not Like The Movies
Kinich Posted April 10, 2023 Posted April 10, 2023 h』『i』『k』『a』『r』『i』 『h』『a』『s』 『s』『h』『*』『t』 『t』『o』 『s』『a』『y』 @CBC @Auburn @Noah @wish @Not Like The Movies Björk - Hidden Place (from Vespertine) The song's melody is like a combination of uplifting and melancholic tunes that create a mysterious and almost dreamlike atmosphere. We live for the top-notch production of the song. Christina Aguilera - Still Dirrty (from Back to Basics) I guess they were trying to do a more polished and refined version of Dirrty. The sultry/seductive tone of the song is still there but the song lacks the punch that the former song had. Demi Lovato - Every Time You Lie (from Here We Go Again) I love how the song started with a somber piano melody but it got lighter as the song progressed. There were some cute moments but there were also some meh moments. Miley Cyrus - WTF Do I Know (from Plastic Hearts) The song was very energetic and very confident. Her vocals were strong and assertive enough to match the song's playful tone. I like this now more than I remembered. Solange - Don't You Wait (from A Seat at the Table) The beats were very hypnotic, the gradual build-up really drawing me in more to the song. Is it better than Cranes? Maybe not, but I still enjoyed the song regardless.
