    15th Place :: Gurrumul - Wiyathul

    The person who submitted this thinks its beautiful and i dont want to take a crap all over it but I just didnt enjoy this at all. When I think of songs in a foreign language being like an instrument of their own, the sound of a guy trying to strain out a sh!te is not the instrument I had in mind. I've loved some of your other stuff though lol <3

    1st Place :: Halcali - GiriGiri Surf Rider

    EarWorm. Total Earworm. The melody of the music is just excellent and it opens with like a chorus bit which was okay at first, but then it hits the hip-hop and i was like, I totally did not expect that direction and it was brilliant. The way they play off each other is excellent and then they sing the choruses in the j-pop kind of way its just a great great piece of music and I love it. bop, bop, bop. I'm up to well over 50 listens of this and I'm just not getting sick of it. I love it. I've actually been listening to it on constant repeat the entire way through this reveal. Sometimes a song just comes along that you absolutely adore. And the video is awesome too!

    It's certainly a matter of taste I think it's lovely too. I don't think he's straining at all - Feel my rapping Frenchman may have deserved this spot more - despite being all the rage on sex and the city finale :)

    This was my second choice, from the 60s. Apparently the Beatles covered it, though haven't heard that.

    Whats that from again. I do love that song its super catchy

    It's not from anything surprisingly, but it charted really bloody well for a cheesy europop song:

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dragostea_Din_Tei

    Brought back some great frickin memories of my teenage years and just chilling with mates watching the music channels before the discos :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 20,342 ✭✭✭✭Rikand


    Once again a big thank you to everyone who submitted songs for category 5, A song sung in a language that isnt English. A good few songs in there that I really enjoyed! :D

    Our final category will be Summer Songs! We need a pick me up, dont we ? I'm really looking forward to checking these songs out, rating them and then getting back on with the rest of my life! lol.

    No fixed date on the reveal for the final Cat. I have a werewolf game that I need to half ass my way through and I'm also on a weeks holiday from work, so not 100% sure how that will affect my listening time.

    Keep an eye on the thread for updates <3

    Green&Red
    partyjungle
    Builebeag
    Tritium
    Fixxxer

    Two of these were instantly amazing to me and the other one grew on me! The other 3 were just downright hideous. But who will feature where!

    Forgot you were doing it like this. I thought I was already in the top 3... Me nerves


  • Registered Users Posts: 20,342 ✭✭✭✭Rikand

    Haven't started listening to the summer tunes, I still have halcali buzzing around in my head and I can't get it out lol
