When Mod says he doesn’t want to be labeled as the country hater....but gives a 3 to that song. 🙄🙄 Thanks .indulgecountry! I knew you’d appreciate it. 😘 So do I celebrate my first 10 or be sad cause I was in the bottom two? You should be lucky I was eliminated last round so I could be a guest judge because you would've been out if it weren't for my participation. Haha i picked that song solely because it fit and I knew you were the judge.

Most of these are award winning, chart topping country songs, not the bottom of the barrel basic stuff. Doesn’t look anything will change for this round but i think it’s worth calling out for future rounds to spread judging around and have one judge that represents all of the major genres.

Kinda sad my second favourite in the set came last haha, but that's what happens sometimes! I hoped y'all liked my commentary for it (and every other song for that matter haha).

Not that it matters much but even if you hadn't judged, Nick would still lost by .8 points lol

I never said there is a bias against me. I chose to send the song in, so no worries there. All I’m saying is the country songs are consistently last or next to last in his voting. If his voting is taken out, I would have finished fifth this round. If this is supposed to be a pop/r&b music only game, that’s fine...but i thought it was supposed to be accepting to all. The songs I have given are top of the line country songs with strong lyrics and vocals. I don’t expect to win, but there is no way that Die From A Broken Heart or Strawberry Wine deserve a 3. As I said, everyone else ranked the song on average, fifth overall Again, not expecting anything to change. But providing constructive criticism for this game going forward. If you want pop songs, say so. If you actually want an opportunity to maybe bring in more people to this game, then maybe a more diverse judging pool should be a change for season 2.

Every single round lol. Music is entirely subjective and being a judge just happened to be a first come fist serve type of deal. If a countryposter had managed to sign up as a judge there'd be a bias too. It's just how rating music works, we all go by our preferences.

All I’m saying is if this is going to be welcoming to all genres for the future seasons, there should be representation of all genres on the panel. Tyra didn’t pick two people just like her to be on the panel. There was representation from other places. So I’m theory there shouldn’t be someone actively against country music, which scores have proven to be the case, without someone to prop it up. That way a true scoring can be determined versus what is going to happen here, where I’m going to be eliminated way earlier than I would be if he wasn’t a judge.

At the end of the day its just a game so idc what the judges really choose to rate a song. It's not gonna affect my own perception anyways.

It's not about the genre man, it is about how much I like it or not (and in this round you'll (hopefully) be able to appreciate that lol)

I'm not the biggest country person and if you asked me like 5 years ago, I listened to ZERO country songs
OOF, the first song I sent in was already taken, whichever that was you a hoe but you got good taste but then again it's a classic

That’s totally a trend. If you can find a trend of you consistently giving a different genre songs that low of scores i will happily apologize and back down. But let’s not try to act like voting down one Vamps song is the same as voting down five country songs of six. And again, no hard feels whatsoever, it’s a game and you have a right to your opinion. You are a judge. Every game needs refinement; that’s just what I see here. If one judge is going to consistently downvote one genre, another should be there to prop it up. Eager to see what you think of all this twang and banjo that’s about to change your life lol

I get why you think I hate this specific genre, but please understand that it is not like this, because it honestly isn't nice to being called out round after round simply because of my taste

I get why you think I hate this specific genre, but please understand that it is not like this, because it honestly isn't nice to being called out round after round simply because of my taste My feedback has boring, basic, annoying and generic - nothing that I can really use to fix the issues if that makes sense. And in my eyes, I've given you upbeat, ballads, award-winners, current singles, multiple no.1 hits, with songs from the 90's, 00s, 10s and this year - so I'm not sure what else to do. After this round, maybe some feedback - or maybe your comments on this round will help - on what country songs would be more appealing to you and I can cater that more to your tastes. There is obviously decades of incredible music. I don't want to abandon the genre because I think its good to have different flavor....and I know I have heard SO many new songs through this, which is good and I would love to keep country out there for people to hear.
