Thank you for submitting your duo songs this week. Each pair submitted a song by the same artist, but now…
You and your partner’s song will go against one another for critiques.
I will judge each of your songs together, one will make the tops for the week, the other… the bottom.
~~
Let’s get to it… the first pair up is Timburr and Vulpix!
Timburr
Song Choice: Teeth by 5 Seconds of Summer
Actually really enjoy 5SOS which is funny because I am never super into boy bands but I think they have such a more mature sound that other boy bands. This song is fun though, the chorus is def a highlight for me in this song. I do find it a bit overplayed via radio but overall a really solid song.
Vlupix
Song Choice: Wildflower by 5 Seconds of Summer
Oooooh this song is another really good one from five seconds of summer. The build up from the verse to the chorus is SUPER enjoyable to listen to. And then the chorus itself I just can't help but dance and sing along to it. The energy in this song is next level, and the lyrics are great as well.
Overall these are two of my favorite songs from 5SOS so this is an incredibly tough call thank you both for submitting fun, high energy, and tasteful songs. However there can only be one winner..
Congratulations Vulpix you are the winner of this Artist Battle! 🎉
~~
The next pair up is Pheromosa and Solrock!
Solrock:
Song Choice: Take a Slice by Glass Animals
God this song is really in my top 5 favorite Glass Animals song. The beat drops are like so so so good? I really love the chorus of this song, and ugh like idk it's a very very top tier song for me and my favorite on How to be Human Being.
Pheromosa:
Song Choice: Waterfalls Coming Out Your Mouth by Glass Animals
THIS ONE TOO! Y'all are killing me right now... I really love this Glass Animals song too. I think this one's lyrics are super fun, with alot of 90's references (like alot of the songs on Dreamland) and has alot of dynamic sounds, ups and downs, I love the bridge the most on thiis song. It is one of, if not my favorite, on Dreamland.
This is a very very tough decision, but the winner of this Artist Battle is...
Solrock! Congratulations!🎉
~~
The next pair is Mawile and Gyarados…
Mawile:
Song Choice: Paradise by Ellie Goulding
I kinda groaned when I saw the artist.. I am not a big fan of Ellie Goulding, I find her music to be really overplayed on the radio, but this one honestly was not as bad as I was expecting it to be. It was fun, had a nice vibe to it, and sonically I enjoyed it. However, still not anything nearly as good as the other songs we have seen tonight.
Gyarados:
Song Choice: Hate Me by Ellie Goulding featuring Juice WRLD
Again, not Ellie Goulding, and I will say having another artist in the mix does take away from the same artist theme we had going tonight. I do like Juice WRLD (RIP) but not as much in this song, maybe because of Ellie. LOL :( And unfortunately, a very overplayed song.
Mawile.. you are the winner of this Artist Battle!🎉
~~
The last pair this evening, Piplup and Litiwick, your up!
Piplup:
Song Choice: Rewind by Kelela
Okay never heard of this artist before so I am excited for this because this song is really really good? Like woah I am a big fan of this, the chorus and then post chorus wtf?Yep an eater from start to finish.
Litwick:
Song Choice: LMK by Kelela
So Kelela is a SERVE I have downloaded this album and will be giving a full listen tomorrow. This is fitting very much the kind of music I have been gravitating more towards lately, some R&B and electirc a little like this is super great. Thank you for sharing this with me!
Wow....another tough call but the winner of this Artist Battle is... Litwick! 🎉
~~
The top 4, Litwick, Mawile, Solrock, and Vulpix are the top 4 of the week, however one of you shined above the rest...
🎉 Litwick congratulations you are the winner of this week's challenge! 🎉
The bottom 4 Pokemon, Piplup, Pheromosa, Gyarados, and Timburr did not compete as well as your other pair, however…. Only one of you will going tonight.
The player being eliminated and unmasked this evening is….
Gyarados.
So I think Gyarados is Blu because Blue is from the south I am p sure and their first song was southern style. HOWEVER this person submitted a Jojo song as well and Tim has a Jojo song on his profile. It’s a toss up between the two but I think I am going to go with Blu…
UGH BLU NO NO NO…. I GUESSED YOU CORRECTLY BUT I AM MAD ABOUT IT. Thank you for playing, I have loved getting to know your music taste (Your Green Day selection was my favorite of yours!!) and who knows…. Maybe I will see you soon…
