lol that the video is from MrSuicideSheep

As for the song itself...it's just a bit lazy and isn't as clever as it thinks it is.

There is much worse still left here.

EDIT: Doc Indie almost putting this in his top half shocks me, this seems like the s**t that he hates

Almost seems like we should have traded places, right?

Song was too busy for its own good.  Cha-chings should only be in a song if there's a point to it.

[peacebone]

#52 is decidedly not that divisive. This song has the lowest top half total of any song remaining (20), but, to counter-balance that, no one ranked this song bottom ten, either...though some posters definitely considered it. Most of this song's highest rankings reside outside of the top ten, but one poster went a step further and ranked it top ten. It's also that poster's first top ten loss.

[Walking Contradiction]

This one's pleasant but nothing special. Definitely can live with it not making top 50.

[House Lannister]

The 1975?

[zaclord 🌈]

"I Feel Like I'm Drowning" is SO good. I thought that would be one of my top 20 that y'all actually liked more...

[CF15]

Finally, a perfect ranking!

[LBTrocks]

How did that Superoganism song make it so far?? It was dreadful!

Bingo.

This is like if Bob Moses' "Tearing Me Up" wasn't any good at all.

[peacebone]

Utterly robbed, shame on you all.

[Mylo13 💜]

yessss here I get my revenge!

Aside from Two Feet which deserved a bit better, these songs have all been in my bottom 20. I helped push them out of the top 50 hehehehehehe


My #100 next? :O

She was a Japanese hologram
You're a Japanese hologram

I did find the video cute, but perhaps it helped that Orono actually underplayed with her singing.  If she was louder, I think this song wouldn't have lasted past the 70s.

[lyhom]

yeah I figured that this was coming soon (I said in my survey that I thought that this was going to go out in the 60s) but gah this should've made the top 50

[singingrulebritannia]

Damn

At least it tied for their highest performance?

[Walking Contradiction]

I don't like this song as much as I did when it first came out, but it's solid. Could have stood to make top 50.

[Alex1901]

Finally

Don't get the appeal of Bear Hands from what i've heard.

[peacebone]

Just missing out on the top half, the song at #51 only spent a little time inside the top half...and I do mean "little". Twelve top 25 rankings will be lost, and while most can be found in the 11-25 range, three top tens will also go away. Two posters are losing their first top ten, but, more importantly, two of the three top tens are high top fives. As for the enemies of those high rankings, four posters will make these high rankings angry with bottom ten rankings, one residing in the bottom five. One poster will also clear their bottom ten.

[Lordef†ones]

Yo it's time for our little optimist Bastille to GTFO

[morneaumispelled]

Back Seat Driver was at least top 50 worthy. Aw man

[House Lannister]

Let's make The 1975 a meme guess!

[peacebone]

Glad to keep this out of the top 50 😈

Good, more pretentious tripe leaving the premises

I was worried after how far this went in MM that I would be waiting for longer

[Deleted]

WHAT THE FUCK

[fearlessarrow]

Ooh my first top 10 loss right outside the top half...

I really enjoyed this when I first listened to the song for a Madness tournament and it’s stayed that way since.

[MoD]

This sounds like it belongs to a musical

You say that like its a bad thing

[Walking Contradiction]

Ouch, I thought this was going to do a lot better. Great song.

[Deleted]

Points for the Queen vibe though, just not for writing.

Why is that Amy Shark snoozefest in the top 50?

[peacebone]

More multiple song artists, I say! More! Almost all of #50's eight top 25 rankings are top 20s, and five posters will also be shedding a top ten. One poster will be losing their first top ten, but another poster will be losing something much worse than that: a #1. Most of this song's biggest opposition merely ranked this song bottom 30, but there is one bottom ten lurking, too.

[Mylo13 💜]
