Julian's Music Taste 2 - Round 8 Results

15thJul 22, 2022 by Thnksfrthmmrs
I'm sorry. I did not intend for this to take this long. I'd go into a whole thing about burnout and all that but nobody wants to hear that. Yall are here for some critiques.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

#LaCroix: Spice Girls - Wannabe
This… This counts? Holy shit. Who doesn’t love Wannabe by the goddamn Spice Girls? This has always felt longer than it actually is because so much is happening and it maintains a constant level of high energy for its entire runtime. Everyone sounds great here, and this is just a fun time which sucks you in and makes you have a good time as well!

#Booyahhayoob: Blur - Song 2
WOO HOO! Damon Albarn is a god and we do not deserve this man. Not only is he the creative mind behind the band Gorillaz, he also fronts Blur and wrote this all time classic banger. This is a stupid song, but who cares? It’s so goddamn FUN. This is a song that knows its niche and slams into it as hard as it possibly can. Those WOO HOOs are infectious and get you on board for the fun that’s coming your way.

#Spinfur: Mothica - Nocturnal
Ooh boy, Mothica. This is a name I have heard plenty about but never had the chance to get into. This is giving me Billie Eilish meets a way less problematic Sia in the best way. As someone who is also nocturnal, it’s nice to know bops are being written about those of us who thrive at nighttime. Especially bops that are, in fact, pretty damn good!

#Austino15fffan: Foster The People - Don’t Stop
Jesus I haven’t thought of this song in a whole decade. In all honesty, this was never one of my favorites from Torches, idk it just never really clicked for me. It’s fun and catchy but can wear out its welcome quickly, which is probably a good thing then that this is just over 2 minutes long. That ending is really weird and I’m leaning towards not liking it, but I’m not sure. Overall this is… Fine? I think?

#Zeptis: Faouzia - RIP, Love
I like the way this sounds, the entire vibe has some sort of ethnic feel which I can’t quite put my finger on it. Plus this woman has a great voice. These lyrics are also kinda brutal, which I think I enjoy a lot actually. Some dude throwing the “I’d die for you” card getting hit with the “ok so die, adios” is an interesting concept which is something I have not heard before. This was pretty interesting!

#MrRobzilla: Lil Nas X - That’s What I Want
Yeah. My lonely gay ass feels this one. It’s nice to see Lil Nas X can put out a song with no real gimmicks and it still performs well because it’s just a good goddamn song. As for the song itself though, yeah. This is already something I listen to on my own time because I am, in fact, lonely as fuck.

#UsernameThatWasFree: Tiesto & Ava Max - The Motto
Love me some generic club music, lol. Gotta be honest, this is not either of their best work. It’s sad because I generally like both of these artists, Tiesto is a great producer and Ava Max is a huge guilty pleasure despite the fact that she can’t seem to stop just ripping off other songs wholesale. This did absolutely nothing for me though, didn’t make me want to move while it was playing and didn’t leave an impression afterwards. Sorry!

#Lucas_RFS: Green Day - Good Riddance (Time Of Your Life)
Oh hell yeah, THIS is a childhood classic. Even though my parents HATED Green Day, I heard this one all over the place growing up and have always loved it. There’s something so nostalgic about this song, looking back on memories and better days, back when things were good. Plus, obviously, Green Day are a really good band and Billie Jo is a great singer who is extremely emotive even with his admittedly pretty limited range.

#SeongWoo: Oh My Girl - Dolphin
I will start by saying I do like this but like, lyrically this isn’t anything new. Actually, I guess the dolphin metaphor is an interesting concept. What really kills this for me is the way their voices kinda fluctuate throughout? Like the pitch is constantly shifting and something about that bothered me a little bit, ngl. This wasn’t a BAD song, per se, it was cute and I do love kpop, but this was just… idk.

#Aidan0621: Flo Milli - May I
I’m sorry, but I hate this type of music. Brag rap is probably my least favorite type of music, period. This particular song though… I don’t know what I hated more, the incredibly unsettling beat with those weird chants in the background that pop in and out at random intervals or those goddamn LYRICS which reminded me of some of Nicki’s worst songs.

#Turkeylover: Suki Waterhouse - Bullshit On The Internet
This title is VERY promising. Hopping into the song and holy hell yeah it delivers. This isn’t quite what I was expecting although tbf I don’t know what I expected. I have heard a lot of different themes in music before but this is pretty new! I’m not entirely sure how to even start discussing this one, I’m kinda at a loss for words. This is very good! I’m into it.
