01) Plan B - I didn't like this, it sounds like he's trying too hard to oversing and I'm not a fan of that atleast in studio versions of songs, not for me unfortunately.
02) Cam - I loved this so much. At the start there's those little breaks and it's haunting kinda and then the beat kicks in and it becomes such a fun song. That was really interesting and it worked honestly.
03) Mona Haydar - This is SO much. I love her flow and this was so different and I loved it LMAO I want to wrap my hijab after listening to this. Legends.
04) Gabrielle Aplin - OMG I REMEMBER LISTENING TO THAT CHORUS. IT WAS OK TIL THEN BUT I LEGIT REMEMBER HEARING THAT AND IT'S SO GOOD. I love the 'won't, let, go' part so much, then the rest of song I enjoyed a lot so yasss.
05) Blessed - It was nice, I vibed to it, I like the attitude of the song and yeah pretty much I just like the song.
06) Evanescence - This was really interesting.. I don't know if her voice works with this type of beat, it could be a bit too experimental, idk? The chorus (the break into the chorus especially) was pretty amazing though, I'd probably like it more if she wasn't almost whispering during the verses, well maybe not whispering, talk-singing.
07) Natasha Blume - I mean it has a foundation but she could have done a LOT more, like when she goes 'like a ghooost' I want her to BELT. I like power and I thought this song would have this but meh it's just ok to me.
08) Jorja Smith x Preditah - Those distorted sounds at the start were fucking annoying, then it led into the most boring song of this entire contest and believe me I am not here for it.
09) Fire Knives - Halsey? jk. It started off ok but I liked the chorus a lot, I wonder how many songs have the phrase 'we are savages' in it. It was definitely nice though, she was passionate.
10) Stormzy - For Stormzy's standard this is good but like...he's a rapper. It feels weird having him sing a song like this. Atleast in the rap part he didn't sound like he did in that other mess of a song, I like MNEK in this though. Something still puts me off.
11) Maya Diab - I must admit, I was dancing to this tbh, I wasn't even liking it at the start but it just grew on me SO quick and I'm bopping to it. It went on for ages though LOL.
12) Jacob Banks, Timbaland - That was quite beautiful, that voice with the beat just works so well and you can just hear the emotion in the words he sings. I liked this a lot more than I thought I would.
13) Anjulie - I liked this, it was quite nice, I liked pretty much everything about it despite there being so many other songs like this, hmm idk I just enjoyed it a lot so.
14) Brandon Heath - The video was nice I guess, I suppose I liked this but I'm not obsessed with it, like I don't think I'd come back to it. I liked his voice a lot though.
15) Allie X - Goddess came into the contest with intentions of snatching wigs and I'm definitely bald now. I love this song so much and those little sounds that pop up randomly are so nice and it's just a solid bop folks.
16) Greta Van Fleet - What the fuck is this mess. A few seconds in and he's already screaming in my ear, then he starts properly singing and he sounds like a literal mess his vocals are so ugly to me I just can't.
17) Saint Motel - It started off nice with the beat but I was expecting a lot more from the start and his vocals just aren't that good to me. Whoops.
18) Ayosha - FUCK ME UP. Holy shit, this entire thing had me shook, he sang a bit, then those distorted vocals came and I was fucking living, and the rest of the song was just so great to me. This is the best song so far probably.
19) Angus & Julia Stone - I mean Idk what to say to this because it was really goddamn boring and there really is no good qualities of this. Atleast the guy is hot.
20) Goodbye To Gravity - I have a feeling the 'acoustic reprise' is the reason why this song is so boring just like the last song. Like was it necessary? I just didn't enjoy it at all.
21) LaBritney - I liked it. There is absolutely nothing special about it but like I did enjoy it. Maybe it needed more punch, idk.
22) Hedley - Sounds like another mess of a Chainsmoker song & guess what I was bopping to it. Trust me I didn't want to. But I'm a generic ass bitch so it just had to be done.
