Me being the lowest scorer for the Locktober ocean album??? I guess most of my averages were in the 6.5-6.7 range since I tried to be varied with my scores outside of her sophomore which was higher, but help. Well I'm very happy with the winner. Thanks for hosting and getting me to discover a LEGEND I've been meaning to listen to for ages @California

As Jesus said: "A bad girl's better than a SWEET, bad boy me recipe" or whatever she said

She was so happy to wear the Lene from Aqua cosplay (or that girl from Toy Box)

She was so happy to be polite

Think I'll be here. Been having fun catching up on the previous updates even though I don't quite recall my thoughts on songs outside of seeing my score again with each reveal. Her debut album overhated...

I remember discovering her from these two songs. She was quite prolific in the UK critically acclaimed spaces back in the 00s apparently!

Taylor doesn't have the sauce to properly sample/interpolate a Yazoo song (even if it's not officially credited) so I'm going to need people to stop saying something sounds like Taylor just because it's 80s-sounding. And even then, the song in Gaga's ended up being, like... a 6.

Pretty much all artists have performative listeners, so they've never ruined my own enjoyment of the artist.

Wait, this is so true, especially when you translate the lyrics into English. Flowers in my hair, I belong by the sea Where we used to be, sittin' by the orange trees Summer in the air, bodies in the heat Just you and me, sittin' by the orange trees

I know I can get this done quickly. I'll try to do it this week.

Amazing songs, though the Cowboy Carter songs kinda stick out, Bodyguard especially. Countdown > Alien Superstar > Virgo's Groove > Haunted > All Night > Partition > End of Time > American Requiem > Bodyguard

If I was given that list, I'd pick Confession II. If I had a blank form, I'd pick Through the Wall by Rochelle Jordan (which I forget was in this year's eligibility period until I recently saw her submissions).

Scores sent! What a great discovery. I forced myself to lower a few scores to try and be a bit competitive, but I'm sure I was kinder than some others on here Admittedly I could have spent a bit more time on the misc songs... but I didn't even realize there were more songs to score than the 6 albums and had to finish up today oop

One of the best on NFR, sorry to the haters.
