The Sheena Ringo Singles Rate [winner revealed]


Suilen

Recommended Posts

I really need to get cracking on this :deadbanana: I was already so familiar with Utada’s music that I only listened to each song once for that rate, but I’m gonna have to spend more time with these songs

Well, new single or not, we're going to proceed as planned. It's still a month away, and we'll probably be done with this until then.

 

Let me tag some of j-pop's old guard: @hud @Kyle-x @Ghibli 

 

I get if you all can't do this but still letting you know about this attempt to talk about and celebrate j-pop. I'll probably have Ayumi involved in the next one, but we still need Namie back on streaming for whatever thing it'll end up being.

 

For those who are on the fence about the ballots, I'll try to get as many as I can, even if I have to give a shout-out to a notorious hater of hers or a certain media's owner that hates every single j-pop woman but her these days, but I still hope that we'll manage without them and the negativity they'll potentially bring.

Hey, @Suilen, will you double check the song order on the PM friendly list vs. the Spotify playlist? Stem / 茎 and Meisai / 迷彩 were switched, but that’s as far as I’ve gotten (finally started this morning!). Where the titles are in Japanese, some people might not notice and get the ratings mixed up. Thanks!

Thank you for pointing it out, I was just going to replace the playlist with the one from my account where everything should be in the right order. I'll also update the PM-friendly list so that the Japanese titles are first.

A gentle reminder that there are 2 weeks left until the deadline (it can still be extended, but I'd like not to abuse this right too much). I'm a sloth when it comes to rates myself, so I totally understand if you'll be ready to submit at the very last minute.

 

Let me also tag the people who expressed interest in participating in the rate but haven't seen it/commented yet.

 

@Meloetta Carey @Hey Dude

 

If you don't want to be tagged for reminders in the future, let me know.

Finally listened to them all and got my preliminary ratings, but I definitely need to go through them again and do some editing! Really great singles discography :clap3:

Reminder that this song did everything a certain other 2010's single tried and failed:

 

 

We were really robbed of a 4K remaster of her videos with her recent BEST album though. :'(

 

Also some of her videos are not uploaded to her official YT channel for some reason:

 

 

 

The Meisai one is SO good. :jonny4:

 

@Antisocialites hey sis, have you seen this rate? :eli:

Going back through trying to fine-tune my scores and now I'm feeling like I should have just gone with my gut reaction scores like I did with Utada apiosudflajskf; this is taking me so long :gaycat7:

Welp, I forgot about that one, but I'll take Curaga dragging it if it means he'll drag the others from that album as well and leave my other faves alone. 

 

As a second thought I wonder why he didn't mention Sandokushi instead but again, still progress from the Utada rate. :rip:

And here I was about to spread a bit of misinformation that Curaga gave it a 0 to start some drama that we desperately need.

The Sandokushi singles that we didn't delete with the swiftness of one shutting down a laptop lid upon seeing a screamer are quite cute, actually. And I remember that someone was stanning Kamisama, Hotokesama back in the day, too.

Anyway, I tried promoting the rate on social media, maybe we'll get some little Shiinsters that way. I normally don't do that but anything to facilitate the discussion of a Japanese woman who was popular 20 years ago.

Speaking of promo, I noticed the thread isn't pinned in Base like the Utada rate was? :sosad:
