Cynthia: this latent misogynistic bulls**t. I don’t think whoever picked this knew how triggered I would be at this selection but whoo boy are YOU in luck to-f**king-day! I HATE this trash. They really wrote an entire song about ‘asking’ some girl’s dad for permission to marry her, then declaring ‘well I’m going to marry her anyway’ in some dick measuring contest, meanwhile the girl herself has NO autonomy or presence whatsoever in the entire 3 minutes and 45 seconds of space that this wastes. And the melody and production are basic as piss too. Not one redeeming factor to be found. f**k the patriarchy, and f**k this bulls**t ass song. I hope she cheated on him with a basketball player. (0) Please judge again at some point, thank you

Cynthia being randomly added as a permanent judge for the remainder of the season after her exceptional performance as one tonight is not something I would object to

Holding steady is...
10. Yabby Barrett (Beno & taylor )Overall Score: 93.0 | Detour Rank: #3 | Roadblock Rank: #13 | PAR Wars Rank: #9 | Bonus From Last Leg: +0.8Detour Results:
(Quick Pace)Judge's Thoughts:Nick: (9.0)District: Up there with Taylor's most popular album cuts, and for a good reason! Really love the bridge on this, all around great pop bop. (9.3)Eidde: (6.5)Crimsonio: Taylord is our overlord, and songs like this will be played in gay hell when we all are at a raver. (10)Overall Score: 34.8
Roadblock Results:
(Sent by Tay)Judge's Thoughts:Nick: Another very chill song. It does fit the vibe of going for a walk late at night (8.7)District: (8.0)Austin: This was a predictable choice and not a song I care too much about though Patsy was a great country and western talent. (4.5)Walt: (8.3)Overall Score: 29.5
PAR Wars Results:
(The Dark Side)Judge's Thoughts:Nick: (0.7)
District: I enjoyed some parts of this song actually, it's kind of annoying but it also kinda works. (3.9)
Cynthia: I was typing up my I Hope review while this played and I realized near the end of the song that I had no recollection of anything else I’d heard of it. So the worst I can say about it is that it’s very forgettable I guess. I don’t care enough to give it a second play but it clearly wasn’t bad enough to stand out. Especially compared to what came immediately after it… (4.0)
Jtd: That drop physically pained me. (3.5)
Actual Score: 12.1 ---> Reverse Score: 27.9
A good detour showing helped you stay out of the bottom this leg. Here's a +0.6 bonus to help next leg.

Faltering after a solid couple of legs is...
11. Dula Peep Please Step on My Face (@jadenlefranks & HamedM1 💔 )Overall Score: 86.55 | Detour Rank: #11 | Roadblock Rank: #1 | PAR Wars Rank: #14 | Bonus From Last Leg: +1.6Detour Results:(Quick Pace)Judge's Thoughts:Nick: (7.3)District: This still slaps. (9.2)Eidde: (6.7)Crimsonio: A classic, can't go wrong with this. (8)Overall Score: 31.2
Roadblock Results:(Sent by Hamed)Judge's Thoughts:Nick: A thoroughly haunting song. The more soft instrumental blends with Billie Holiday's vocals to make a song that really sticks with you long after you listen to it (9.5)District: (8.3)Austin: It is possible to be extremely bored at the start of this song with the long slow intro however once the words began and the vocals hit - this is POWERFUL. The lyrics resonate in a strong way once you realize she isn’t talking about a fruit at all. The slow building intro makes sense once the story is complete. (8.8)Walt: (9.6)Overall Score: 36.2
PAR Wars Results:(The Dark Side)Judge's Thoughts:Nick: (1.5)
District: re: Sober Up, a catchy pop bop that sounds decent if I'm feeling it lmao (5.2)
Cynthia: umm...I like this song? * dodges tomatoes * It was overplayed to hell and back where I live, but it was fine. It’s very poppish though. I can see why a rock fan would hate it. Sorry you didn't land a rock fan this time. (7)
Jtd: Sorry but this is a guilty pleasure for me lol. (8.75)
Actual Score: 22.45 ---> Reverse Score: 17.55
Despite winning the roadblock, you two lost PAR Wars, and nearly lost the leg as a result! However, you did manage to dodge the bottom 3, and you'll get a +0.4 bonus next leg

Dodging the bottom 2 is...
12. No No Drama (Enyasurvivor & shruggie )Overall Score: 86.15 | Detour Rank: #14 | Roadblock Rank: #7 | PAR Wars Rank: #10 | Bonus From Last Leg: +2Detour Results:
(Quick Pace)Judge's Thoughts:Nick: (7)District: I've listened to this before and thought it was good, but it's held up pretty well. Love the harmonies when he says Run. (8.1)Eidde: This might be a bit better than I remember it being from the Alt rankdown. Just a really atmospheric song, the guitar solo is cool too (8)Crimsonio: This is not good, and is not quick at all. Why even bother sending a song like this? (3)Overall Score: 26.1
Roadblock Results:
(Sent by Enya)Judge's Thoughts:Nick: This one is alright. I don't mind listening to it but it doesn't really stick out to me amongst such a strong group of songs (7.7)District: (7.9)Austin: I like this one and at least for me, its not as Johnny B Goode. For me, this is the better Chuck Berry pick. (8.1)Walt: (8.6)Overall Score: 32.3
PAR Wars Results:
(The Dark Side)Judge's Thoughts:Nick: (8)
District: ok this was just trash lmao bye (0.5)
Cynthia: LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. I have tears in my eyes, omg this is so bad it’s ironically good. This s**t is so hilarious. The fake operatic ‘not by the hair of my chinny chin chin’? Stroke of f**king genius. Ngl, I kind of want to give this s**t a 10, but I won’t do that. We all know that would be a very ironic 10. (1)
Jtd: This was 6 minutes of fun. (5.25)
Actual Score: 14.25 ---> Reverse Score: 25.75
This was your weakest leg yet, but you're still in it. +0.2 bonus next leg

At least "Three Little Pigs" is creative and interesting, which is something I can't say for the other Dark Side songs.

Dodging elimination by less than a point is...
13. Born to Jugg (born & CagedJuggalo The Third Tanker )Overall Score: 85.3 | Detour Rank: #6 | Roadblock Rank: #9 | PAR Wars Rank: #13 | Bonus From Last Leg: +2.2Detour Results:
(Warm Embrace)Judge's Thoughts:Nick: (8.3)District: One of my favourite Phoebe songs. The bleak lyrics are beautifully contrasted with the breeziness of her delivery and a laid-back production. (10)Eidde: Definitely a very emotional song and probably my favorite of hers. The way this fits the detour theme is also pretty creative (9.1)Crimsonio: Phoebe is overrated and not that impressive before Kyoto. Despite that, this fits the theme I guess. (6)Overall Score: 33.4
Roadblock Results:
(Sent by Jugg)Judge's Thoughts:Nick: Johnny Cash's storytelling is hard to beat. He manages to spin simple yet intricate stories. His voice is also one of the best (8.8)District: (7.3)Austin: I’m a tractor so I can’t rank Johnny cash too harshly but this isn’t one of my all time favorites (7.6)Walt: (7.8)Overall Score: 31.5
PAR Wars Results:
(The Dark Side)Judge's Thoughts:Nick: (3)District: I enjoy this a little bit. I don't really hate anything about it sonically, it's kind of obnoxious sometimes but otherwise it's just there for me. (5.8)Cynthia: I’m sorry but I would get f**ked up and turnt up in the club off this all while having no idea wtf Em is saying lmao (8)Jtd: Juice WRLD really saved this song. The beat is solid too. (5)Actual Score: 21.8 ---> Reverse Score: 18.2
An overall mediocre performance netted you two the lowest raw score, and you only managed to survive by virtue of your bonus from last leg. No bonus for next leg, but you're still in the race!
Crashing down to last and being eliminated is...
14. LorZedtones (matteeeb & Lordef†ones )Overall Score: 84.85 | Detour Rank: #7 | Roadblock Rank: #11 | PAR Wars Rank: #12 | Bonus From Last Leg: +1.2Detour Results:
(Quick Pace)Judge's Thoughts:Nick: (9.3)District: wow this was very fiery. I enjoyed the instrumental breakdowns and the little spoken part at the end of the track was cool. (8.4)Eidde: (9.4)Crimsonio: Kind of mediocre honestly, the same old guitar chords got old. (6)Overall Score: 33.1
Roadblock Results:
(Sent by Zedd)Judge's Thoughts:Nick: I love the tenseness of this song. The textbook definition of how to make a song angry while still keeping it low key (8.8)District: (7.7)Austin: See the appeal here and the story is good but I’d rather listen to JTs version of "Cry Me A River" tbh. (5.9)Walt: (8.2)Overall Score: 30.6
PAR Wars Results:
(The Light Side)Judge's Thoughts:Nick: (5.1)
District: The issue with sending obnoxiously catchy songs is that they sound decent on a good day. not gonna lie I was kinda bopping to this lmao. (6.2)
Cynthia: this is okay...yeah, that’s all I got. It’s not great but it doesn’t suck nearly as much as this person needs it to. (6)
Jtd: I could never accuse AJR of being boring… until I heard this song. The violin bumped the grade up a bit but maaaan this is bad. (2.75)
Actual Score: 20.05 ---> Reverse Score: 19.95
An overall rough leg sent you two straight to the bottom, and I'm sorry to say that you have been eliminated from the race. Thanks for playing!

Just want to point out that, in the first three legs, "Loud Places" and "No One Knows" have been submitted by the last place teams.
No one is fucking safe.

I would have unironically given Three Little Pigs a high score, a clear intentional joke song with an amazing claymation music video. Also the closest Tool will ever get to a year end list, not to mention Pauly Shore
