Welcome everyone to the reveal thread for my second walrus!
ooh I just realized this is a walrus I'm quite happy with all submissions.
So looking forward to this just to hear my own songs :P
So..
1. Doubt my song will go down well with the masses but I think it's hilarious
2. Love the song I've put through because it very 'me'
3. I love this song but I think it's more of a grower rather than an instant like/love
4. Great song, but one or two solo parts that may not hold your attention if your not into that kinda stuff
5. Doubt you'll like this but I think it's brilliant!
6. Struggled so so much with this but happy enough with what I came up with
7. Again, was struggling a bit with what was gonna happen here, but definitely happy with my choice and surprised I came up with something that I think is decent
8. Love this song
BRING IT ON

Okay, lets get this show on the road!
For the first round, I'm just gonna straight up reveal from 15th to 1st, put some people out of their misery early on or maybe I'm just trying to get rid of their songs so I dont have to think about linking them later on
I post semi-prepared streams of consciousness. Most of my notes are garbled rubbish, I turn them into coherant sentences at reveal time. Plus, for most of these songs, I dont remember who submitted them. I just pull them all out of the PM's stick them in word, randomize the list and then start listening. It tries to ensure that I wont have any subconscious bias. This way it gives Necro a fair shot. So I'll be going back to the PM's to find the entrant each time 0 -

In 15th Place scoring 1 point
Avicii - Wake me up :: Submitted byJP Liz V1
Yeah, so I hate this song. Its one of my least favourite songs of all time. I just despise it. And like, I'm not gonna be the judger of joy for someone. But this song brings me the opposite of joy every time I hear it for a number of reasons some it personal which I won't go into but I just hate it. One of my least favourite songs of all time.
SorryLiz

I'm getting deja vu...In 18th place with 11 pointsJP Liz V1
Avicii – Wake Me Up
I do like some of Avicii’s stuff – was never mad on this track mind. For a dance track it’s wild slow, that being said I remember being on a dancefloor and everyone literally just jumping to this, so I suppose it works in a way? Anyways, definitely a good fit for chasing away the Monday blues, so here is about right for it.0 -

Okay, so while I still have one person reading the thread you'll be glad to know that we are over the stuff that I really didnt like and onto the stuff that I only vaguely disliked
Hahaha, good thing that there were 3 songs that you didn't like.
Wasn't sure how well this first selection of mine would go with you, so glad not to be at the bottom 3.0 -
I feel Walrus is a commitment beyond my maturity, making yourself listen to stuff you hate in full and repeatedly for the sake of a fair contest... So go Rikand!

That's the sort of song I'd really struggle to rank myself. I kind of love it, and kind of hate it simultaneously. I respect music that can exist in both those places at once thoughIt's the confusion it inspires that makes me love it. Also his blood curdling scream at 3:26. Mad shít. I love it.

Oh, I just checked his wiki page and read that he was part of the New York no wave scene of the late 70's and was also in a relationship with Lydia Lunch.
I will investigate further 0 -

I feel like that with some songs too. I wouldn't listen to them on my own playlists but I think they are gas when I hear them.
