luckystrike Posted August 27, 2023 Posted August 27, 2023 Madonna - Sky Fits Heaven  kind of a weird choice if im being honest but it's fine lolÂ
luckystrike Posted August 27, 2023 Posted August 27, 2023 Azealia Banks - Gimme a Chance  She needs a damn job real bad, she is the worst artist alive
luckystrike Posted August 27, 2023 Posted August 27, 2023 Kylie Minogue - Fragile  I'm here to save you from the lashings cause you sent my favorite Kylie song ever (I'm serious) so here is your 12 1

Alex Posted August 27, 2023 Posted August 27, 2023 COBRAH - Brand New ***** cute but very one note, it’s whatever  Mallrat - UFO sounds like something you’d hear on an instagram edit circa 2015, vocalist giving Kiiara levels of vocals  Christopher - When I Get Old this is a bad submission.  Billie Eilish - I Didn’t Change My Number Finally a good song, this song is stupidly underrated  ur pretty - Fill Me Up this is an AWFUL submission. this is not serious right..   Paramore - You First not one of my favourite Paramore songs, this album was a disappointment imo  Sabrina Carpenter - Read your Mind Mega bop, I already know who submitted this, it was my original submission too  Imogen Heap - Daylight Robbery okay it was cute for one round but i’m over Imogen sorry  Victoria Monét - Ass Like That amazinggggg song, I was thinking of submitting this too. Great choice!  NIKI - Keeping tabs what is this random spotify fodder ddd  Rina Sawayama - Alterlife back when she still made good music, love this song  Madonna - Forbidden Love i can see the appeal but… meh  Chappell Roan - HOT TO GO! i don’t think so.  Troye Sivan - What A Heavenly Way To Die best song on the album, cmon tasteful submission.  Britney Spears - Toy Soldier not my favourite britney song unfortunately (for you) but it’s passable  FKA twigs - oh my love omg I love this song, best on Caprisongs I fear  Ravyn Lenae - Xtasy anything Ravyn is a 100% yes from me, although I prefer the Doechii remix for this particular track. Still, this is a great selection!  Agnes - Love And Appreciation these back to back serves, taste finally arrived! this is her best song after 24 Hours  Chrissy Chlapecka - I’m So Hot and of course someone had to ruin it.. CHOP!  Rachel Chinouriri - I’m Not Perfect (But I’m Trying) it’s cute! She should do more songs like this  Loreen - In My Head Well it’s no Euphoria, but this seems to be a cute deep cut.  Kim Petras - Claws the best song on that embarrassment of an album ahhh Kim if only you still made more good songs like this again  Rebecca Black - Crumbs this is like the only song of hers that I like so good choice!  Madonna - Sky Fits Heaven i just don’t have any motivation to stream madonna, this song makes no difference  Azealia Banks - Gimme A Chance amazing song! side eyeing anyone on this thread who doesn’t acclaim this, mental institution for those that don’t. The transition still gags to this day, take my 12  Kylie Minogue - Fragile ahhh legend Kylie, I need to get into her discography too but this is great (give me more recommendations pls)  XG - LEFT RIGHT wait I remember this was a slight bop when I first heard this. That’s about it tho!  Cute comeback round overall! I can see why 50% of you were eliminated, hopefully it stays that way! Â

touya kinomoto Posted August 27, 2023 Posted August 27, 2023 like you've been playing this game for some time now. you must know that the game has been mostly fair for everyone. it still is a game so strategies will come in play. but it's also knowing your audience. if you don't think your taste in music is too cool for others, then maybe yeah, this ain't the game for you. 1

THAT. ANYWHERE. Since when are you a gatekeeper to what can and can't be sent in this game? I believe you just said that it shouldn't matter if it's mainstream or not right, as long as the song is good? Yet you're over here saying that the game isn't really for mainstream acts. Isn't the whole point of ATRL Song Contest to send in good, enjoyable songs, regardless of whether the artist is mainstream or not? Like, I get tired of people saying Bonnie McKee or David Archuleta are generic yet they praise Amaarae or Slayyterr to the high heavens. 1 1

prézli Posted August 27, 2023 Posted August 27, 2023 Sudan Archives - Freakalizer: Cute, but kinda forgettable.
prézli Posted August 27, 2023 Posted August 27, 2023 Kilo Kish - CHOICE COWBOY (feat. Jean Dawson): PERIOD. Â
prézli Posted August 27, 2023 Posted August 27, 2023 Poppy - Knockoff: I usually don't like her songs, but it's cool.
prézli Posted August 27, 2023 Posted August 27, 2023 Rochelle Jordan - Got Em: I don't really like this album, but this song is okay.
MusicLoverDude Posted August 27, 2023 Posted August 27, 2023 Anyways, I sent my rankings already. In spite of my venting frustrations, I did enjoy several songs this round and made some new discoveries.Â
prézli Posted August 27, 2023 Posted August 27, 2023 Caroline Loveglow - Blue Arcade: Cute again. Sounds like a less boppy Aly & AJ song.
