You are all safe! But safe is not a word I associate with the winner of Eoin's Music Taste.
That means...
ARTPOP2
GabrielTrezza
Gigi10
Hellocat
Mysterygame2
Sosyomomma
You represent the tops and the bottoms of the week.
First up ARTPOP2!
That Kid - Taco Bell
This was one of the few songs that I hadn't actually heard this week. This by definition, is kinda trash but it's trash turned into treasure this was such a fun bop, it reminds me of SOPHIE and Charli XCX, a nice bop and something really different. I'm excited to see what else you have to showcase in the coming weeks. Good job!
Next is GabrielTrezza!
ELIO - CHARGER
This also was a song I had not heard before, and while I appreciated the vibes it was going for, it didn't quite do it for me, I felt like it could have did more. It was fine, but I wanted to see it push harder or lean even more into the chill vibe. Not bad, but not a great start.
We now have Gigi10!
Childish Gambino - 3005
Rap is never in my go to songs, but this was a bop and it makes me wonder if I should listen to more rap, it just really popped. I feel like a lot of people went for girly pop and you said men matter too and I respected that! Strong start and a nice contrast to most of the songs this week.
Next is Hellocat!
Janice - Hearts Will Bleed
This was absolutely EVERYTHING. A song that was on my playlists for quite a while after I first heard it. It's elegant, trendy and just sounds special, it demands your attention. It's different and I loved every second. I hope you can keep this high standard up because that was great!
We now have Mysterygame2!
Linkin Park - Iridescent
I didn't care for any of this at all. I like a bit of a rock song, but I found this to be a bit lacking. It didn't tug at my heart strings enough for me to love it, it just was pretty eh for me and didn't leave much of an impression on me sadly!
Lastly, we have Sosyomomma!
Iggy Azalea - Started
Now we have talked about good hot messes, but this is just...a mess. No wonder this era killed her career. I like the fact you had a clear starting point, and I feel like it actually gives a good look at you, which is a positive but overall, I thought the song was a bit...shit.
With that being said, I have made some decisions...
Hellocat...congratulations you are the winner of this week's challenge!
Great job ARTPOP2 and Gigi10, keep up the good work, you are safe.
GabrielTrezza, while your song did not stand out this week, it is enough to save yourself for now, you are also safe.
That means Sosyomomma and Mysterygame2, you are up for elimination.
Each week the bottom 2 must find a cover of a song of my choosing. The song will be based off each week.
This week's elimination song is...'Love Myself' by Hailee Steinfeld!
The person with the best cover will survive, while for the loser, there time will end here.
