My job loves keeping me out all hours of the day and night, sorry it takes so long to get these up. Okay, time for 10 to become 9. The following players are safe.
The rest of you are the best and the worst of the week. Worst being relative since again, I think there were a lot of really good submissions this round.
Times_Places - BANGER of course, I did think this was a little loose with the theme since I only really felt the distortion in the chorus, but I do know Kylie does tend to have that effect where her voice fuses really well with the processing and kind of hides the adjustments they made so I can overlook it for a song like this.
moup94 - You’re soooo right about trashy pop needing to come back, but I think this was a weaker choice. They had other songs that I think could’ve also fit the theme while also being a little more interesting. Which is unfortunate because I do think the kind of early 2010’s production/sound works (to an extent) for this theme, but not enough to overcome it coming and going through my playlist.
FromAWindow - I deleted the first submission before listening so I didn’t hear the Rebecca Black song, but I think you made a good choice to switch into this. The more I replayed the submissions, the more I ended up getting into this. The chorus is nice and punchy which contrasts well with the lead in verses. And when it hits that part where it sounds like it’s glitching, it all just comes together.
mathboy9 - The way they stack their vocals are soooo cool, I actually really liked this song too, but it did feel a touch dated in the lineup. And then while I liked the play between the verse and the instrumental around the 1:30 mark, the repetition did knock it down the list a little. But once we got past that I was back with you. Actually maybe I didn’t like the play because when they did the repeating line again towards the end of the song I didn’t mind it.
MISSImogen - The whisper in the pocket of the song on the chorus gives me tingly feelings. I could definitely see this setting the club off in that 1:00 am spot where you need the energy pick up but you’re also in the zone to a point where you’d be willing to try something a little off kilter.
turkeylover - I think the playlist picked a good song for you, but it did feel like it was towards the bottom of the pile this round. Great pick for the theme, love the way the edits kind of float in and out of the song. It’s a bit mellow though, and I ended up thinking the part after she was done singing was kind of my favorite part?? LMAO
So with all that said, the winner of this round is…

moup94, you are safe. It’s a tough choice but I think you deserve another chance.
Turkeylover, thank you SO much for applying. You know how tough the competition was season 1, and sadly this season has forced a lot of tough cuts as well. But in my mind you are ALWAYS a finalist so this was a victory lap season for you as far as I’m concerned.
Also yes moup94 you are a prostitute, and human seed is the form of currency that you accept. That's why your eevee never evolved into Flareon when you used the sunstone on it. Because it was coated in cuuum - that's why you have a Semoaneon now.
