gabe: Why is everyone obsessed with long songs? This is the first song I’ve heard from this group and I’m happy to report it will be my last. It’s just really really boring. (3.0)

what if i told gabe about a little band called godspeed you black emperor

there's a reason why gabe and gybe are one letter away 😎

[Leo ✔]

7. Team Double Back When You Got it Made (@chroniclea & Beno )
Overall Score: 74.5 | Detour Rank: #9 | Roadblock Rank: #8 | Bonus From Last Leg: +1

Detour Results:



(Dancing Bars)

Judge's Thoughts:

Nick: this one’s very fun! I like the beat, and I always love the robotic Daft Punk vocals haha. the lyrics are ALL about dancing, which is nice to see for this theme haha. solid song! (8.4)

Samo: This was fairly enjoyable, but something about the vocals (especially in the bridge) isn’t quite working for me - the production is great though, and I can see why it’s so well-remembered. (7.9)


Albie: because perfection can’t be scored any other way. (10)

Adrian: I often forget that Daft Punk has been around since the 90s lol. This is obviously their signature song for a reason and I can see why. It's not my personal favorite from them, but it's so damn catchy. I like the production quite a bit. It has a really good beat. The vocals here are interesting, but quite good. And it fits the theme so it works for me! (8.7)

Overall Score: 35


Roadblock Results:

Judge's Thoughts:

Nick: this is a nice little track. despite my lack of love for recent Ariana I got enjoy this song a fair amount! the post chorus instrumental isn’t exactly my favorite thing, but I find the rest of the song to be quite enjoyable! some of the harmonies toward the end of the song really work, which definitely boosted this up a bit in my ratings (8.1)

Samo: I still like this a lot, but it was never one of my favourites from Sweetener. I really enjoy the pre-chorus, but the drop can be a little annoying, though her vocals over it sound great. (8.1)

Leaf: I'm honestly a bit tired of the ubiquitous trap beat, and the drop didn't do this too many favors either. I can appreciate that she put her own spin on this, but I'd rather stick with Imogen Heap's original version. At least Ariana retained some of the original's charm, though. (5.3)

Trilogy: This is easily one of my favorites from her. I really like the Imogen Heap original, and Ari really does a really good job at flipping it, all while making the song her own with the good lyrics, vibes, production, overall it's nuts, balls even. (8.0)

gabe: I know people go crazy over this song but I’ve really never felt the same way. I enjoy the sample but the first verse isn’t really that exciting and the chorus doesn’t hit hard enough for me. However, Ms. Grande’s voice is literally perfect for this song. I think this song really picks up steam on the second verse and then the final 20 seconds are just amazing. (9.0)

Overall Score: 38.5

yet another team that scores a solid placement from their consistency throughout the leg! you two will get a +1.2 bonus next leg

8. The Lights (walt91 & Lukas )
Overall Score: 73 | Detour Rank: #2 | Roadblock Rank: #14 | Bonus From Last Leg: +2

Detour Results:





(Dancing Bars)

Judge's Thoughts:

Nick: jam! can’t really go wrong with ABBA haha. this one’s just a super fun and iconic track. it’s got nice energy and a nice bounce to it, and overall I really dig it! (9.2)

Samo: This was the first song I thought of when I saw this category, so while it may be an obvious pick, I can’t fault you two, because it is an excellent song, with one of the catchiest and most iconic choruses of its decade. (9.4)

Albie: absolutely, yes. Serve. (9)

Adrian: There was a point earlier this year where, for a short period of time, I was obsessed with ABBA (I mean, what gay guy doesn't like ABBA?). I think they're amazing. They've brought so many jams that are iconic, especially "Dancing Queen", which I would say is one of my favorite pop songs of all time. I mean it does everything perfectly. I love how it opens up. I love how uplifting it sounds. It has great verses with an insanely catchy chorus. The vocals are amazing. It's like one of the ultimate gay anthems and I adore it. It also perfectly fits the theme, so I honestly don't think you could've done better. (10)

Overall Score: 37.6

Judge's Thoughts:

Nick: this is a nice and chill song. I dig the horns in it especially, I think they work super well. the rapping from both members of OutKast is unsurprisingly very strong, and the song’s 7 minute length really just flies by. it doesn’t totally click with me as much as I’d like it to, but I still enjoy it quite a bit! (8.5)

Samo: The horns on here are amazing, and a lot of the reason why I like it, since nothing else about the song really sticks out for me, unfortunately. (6.9)

Leaf: The soulful sound on this was immaculately pulled off. I admittedly only really know their biggest hits, but I might actually prefer this to them. (8.5)

Trilogy: The horns. Everyone needs to listen to those horns. Apart from that, this is a clear high rater for me based on lyrics and production. (9.5)

Gabe: If you’re gonna give me a song that’s 7 minutes long it better be worth my damn time. This wasn’t. This is awful, it’s boring, it’s a disgrace to music. (0)

Overall Score: 33.4

you had one of the most consistently strong detour performances, but receiving the first 0 of the season tanked you two down to the middle of the rankings with the second-worst roadblock performance. you'll get a +1 bonus next round

[Deleted]

wait it's legal to give a rating of 0, wtf

At this point the thread should just be "Post what you think gabe enjoys"

thats right everyone: if you have a six minute long song its unnecessarily long, but seven minutes is a disgrace to music

[Deleted]

the only song i would ever call a disgrace to music is 7 rings by ariana grande
