OBSESSED

 

Average: 7.84

High Score: 10 (@Alldeezy, @creativity., @Born to Run)

Low score: 4 (@a_d_22)

 

 


Powered by a writing assist from Annie Clark, Olivia Rodrigo cranks it up to 11 on this anxious rocker about becoming consumed by a jealous infatuation with her partner’s ex-girlfriend. Serving as the lead single for the Guts (Spilled) re-release, “Obsessed” peaked at #14 on the Billboard Hot 100 and scraped the top ten on pop radio. It missed the top ten on this countdown by a single point.

 

Best bit: “I know she's been asleep on my side of your bed, and I can feel it”

 

ATRL says…: “Her best song to date,” @Alldeezy gushed. “It's so catchy and fun and I really think she should stick to her pop-rock sound in the future.” @Ewan Chaos agreed that it was a “smart choice to make this the ‘single’ of the deluxe songs.”

I think I have a bad association with this song from being forced on me in ads, from where exactly I don't remember but that happens to me for any song in an ad

Interesting how the serve is kinda working now. Either it's an OORH or everyone went to bed.

“On My Mama”

 

The Record

“Not Strong Enough”

 

Zach Byran

It's wild how after all that, Zach hung on to put two songs into the top ten and Amaarae only managed one.

Victoria for the win, I guess, both songs are excellent.

Love Is Embarrassing has no business here when Pretty isn't Pretty is already out :khalyan2:

LIE is pop perfection!

I can't believe I'm saying this but Love Is Embarrassing for the win! Obsessed is way better than Get Him Back and All American *****

 

I think Angels in Tibet deserved a spot in here.

 

Shocked How Does It Make you Snooze made it this far, but happy with both of Victoria's picks for top 10.

GOOD BYE

 

Average: 7.53

High Score: 10 (@MP2K, @Reverie)

Low score: 3 (@Alldeezy)

 

 

With Victoria Monét playing the regal soul diva, Jaguar II ends on this farewell to a relationship that she keeps coming back to in spite of her better judgment. “If this is the last time,” she proposes over a lushly retro swing, “let's make this one a good bye.”

 

Best bit: “You got my heart all bent out of shape/So after you, I'll never really use it the same”

 

ATRL says…: “The way this song EXPANDS in the second half... heavenly,” @Ewan Chaos sighed.

SOCIOPATHIC DANCE QUEEN

 

Average: 7.58

High Score: 10 (@4Real, @Reverie,@Ace Reject)

Low score: 3 (@a_d_22)

 

 

Amaarae is deeply in lust on Fountain Baby, but she regards romance with an intense cynicism. Even on this airy pop banger, with its insistent chorus commanding a lover to “touch, touch, touch, touch, touch, touch, touch, touch, touch, touch, touch, touch,” she’s already imagining the end of the entanglement before it’s begun.

 

Best bit: obviously that chorus, though there’s a fantastic line (“Maybe we could be the remedy/Then eventually we'll be enemies”) that sums up Amaarae’s perspective on love

 

ATRL says…: “Touch! Touch! Touch! What a hook!” @Ace Reject sang. @a_d_22, of course, found it “annoying but not as bad.”

This is a crisis. We are in a crisis.

Not the worst top 10 I guess but Get Him Back being here is kind of a travesty.

 

I was gonna whine that I wish I had sabotaged Bad Idea Right because it's gonna win rightfully so so that an Amaarae song could have won instead but... clearly she got too much hate to even barely get in the top 10 at all!

Wait, why do you hate it?

Posted

It gets annoying after a while. Definitely my least favorite of the Guts bops

 

What Does Britney Spears Voive Sound Like w/ No Auto-Tune?

 

Also now I hate it even more for outlasting Good Bye, Princess Going Digital, Sociopathic Dance Queen, some Zach songs, etc etc etc...

I probably like this top ten more than any other voter, since I gave a 10 to eight of these songs.

I may be around!

Any final predictions? First up we're going to even the playing field a bit.

I'm guessing that means Miss Rodrigo will be out. Hopefully it's All American *****
