Cherry Music Game Results One

5 cheritaisdelicious, Sep 9, 2021

Results time! Y’all this is gonna be so funny because I will likely write these long ass comments, with random anecdotes, quoting my favorite lines, talking about what album the song is from, etc, and I am fully aware that most of you never even heard of this band before and didn’t particularly enjoy the theme and my words mean nothing and I am basically just talking to myself, but I mean...same as always? Let’s get to it!
So for this round, I listened to all of the songs and gave my feedback, but no one will be eliminated, because two people who were going to play dropped out, but also because I like everyone to have one free round because you're all getting used to me. And also because I can't possibly eliminate someone sending a song by my favorite band anyway. So here are the commentary in order of submission, and I'll throw in a quick order of highest to lowest at the end.
sosyomomma Waste of Paint: This is off the album Lifted, probably one of my top 5 from that album, maybe even top 3. It’s like a very classic Bright Eyes song, a mixture of storytelling with a bit of ranting/trademark Conor yelling. Also, fun fact, this song has the word cherry in it, which is cool because I know how it would sound if he sang my name <3 Ugh I love him so much, this is a great song to start my wonderful game, thank you.
BarbraStreisand Mariana Trench: This is from Down in the Weeds, Where the World Once Was, which came out last year. So when the album came out, I didn’t really listen to it, I like listened to the whole thing through once and that was it, because it was the first album in a decade, and like, I love old Bright Eyes so much, but the album before this one wasn’t the best, and I like a lot of Conor’s solo stuff since then, but I just figured the new album couldn’t really top old Bright Eyes, but then like this year I just randomly started listening to it, and I became obsessed, I have probably listened to this album in full at least a hundred times, fun fact this album is often what I am listening to while playing frookies. Anyway, this isn’t in my favorite songs off the album, but the bar is so high on that, and it’s still a good song, and it’s kind of upbeat (for Cherry music anyway) so I am not surprised someone picked it!
Joee323 First Day of My Life: This is off of I’m Wide Awake, It’s Morning, which is one of my top 5 albums of all time. This is also the most “mainstream” Bright Eyes song, and as soon as I posted the theme I thought “I wonder who will send First Day of My Life” because when I used to host music games on another site, anytime I did a theme incorporating this band, everyone would be falling all over themselves to be the first person to send this, haha. BUT even though the song is so obvious, it’s like...well liked for a reason, because it’s a really cute love song. If you liked this song you should look up the official music..
