Receiving the bronze medal is...3. Meg's Alt Accounts (Beno & Mayman )Overall Score: 409 | Detour Ranks: #5, #6 | Roadblock #1 Rank: #1 | Roadblock #2 Rank: #2 | Final Challenge Ranks: #2, #6 | Bonus From Last Leg: +0.2Detour Results: Song #1:Pissy PamperYoung Nudy/Lil Uzi Vert - Pissy Pamper(Historical Fall)Judge's Thoughts:Nick: The beat is obviously great, and I like the song overall, but there were much better choices for looking to please all the judges (8)District: (6.8)Razor: Lolol why was this submitted?? I don't see many Pulsers liking this at all (8.8)Adrian: Surely with a theme like this, there were better songs to choose from. This has me bored out of my skull with the bland production and terrible vocals, and it's just such a strange choice for the final leg of the season. (2)Rom: youtube.com/shorts/D0zndaesMY0?feature=share (10)Enya: Umm… ok so the positives: the production was reminiscent of an Italian giallo from the 70s, so I loved that. The rest of the song was big ol’ mess though. There was literally nothing else to the song. (3.4)Austin: I am really, really, really sorry. I don't like this at all. :25-:50 and 1:15 - 1:50 is like my ears are bleeding (2)Tay: (3.1)Fearless: I don’t think I ranked this that high when I did the RYM rankdown this was in (granted it’s the RYM rankdown so competition is STIFF). I don’t know if I love this but the beat is pretty hot. (7.6)Lord: This was f***ing terrible. (1.5)Overall Score: 53.2 Song #2:
Nirvana - Something in the Way(Studio Sprawl)Judge's Thoughts:Nick: I had a friend who I went to see The Batman with and they got really into this song after, but could only remember that it started with “something”, so he’d just repeatedly sing “something” and then kinda trail off (9.4)District: (7.9)Razor: Honestly kinda meh, I get why it went viral but I've never been impressed by Nirvana's slower songs (7.6)Adrian: As an occasional Nirvana listener, I like the simplicity of this song and the pleasant instrumental. I'm sure it's even better in the context of the movie, but on its own, it's quite good! (8.3)Rom: is there really something in the way folks? think about it... (7.6)Enya: This was used perfectly in The Batman to the point where it elevated the song itself, which is ideally how you want it to be. I do think this is a bit of an obvious choice however. (7)Austin: (7)Tay: (10)Fearless: I didn’t really think much of this song when I first listened to Nevermind (I probably liked it but there were many songs I liked over this one), but when it blew up because of The Batman, I found a new appreciation for the song. Still doesn’t come close to my favorites on Nevermind though. (8.3)Lord: Perfectly somber and dreary in a way that sticks long after the song is over. (8.6)Overall Score: 81.7 Roadblock #1 Results:
Nancy Sinatra - These Boots Are Made for Walkin'(Sent by Beno)Judge's Thoughts:Nick: I love the spurned, cheesy lyrics of the song. The chorus is catchy, the instrumentation is fun (I love the horns that come in towards the end of the song), and overall the track is just a great listen (9.3)District: (8.4)Zedd: (9)Razor: Step on me with your boots Nancy Sinatra (9.1)Adrian: Timeless classic! Need I say more? (9)Rom: me when i get a pair of timbs (8.1)Enya: Nancy has always been bigger to me than Frank but that’s because I am such a slut for this song and Bang Bang. This song has so much swag and demands your attention from the opening strums of that guitar. It’s simply iconic. (8.9)Austin: (8.5)Tay: (10)Fearless: The jazzy but also relatively sparse instrumentals pair really well with Nancy Sinatra’s vocals and the descending strings are really earwormy. (8.5)Lord: A classic revel of badassery. (8)Overall Score: 96.8 Roadblock #2 Results:
Nirvana - In Bloom(Sent by Mayman)Judge's Thoughts:Nick: Like most things Nirvana, it’s great and has really strong (if angry) energy (9.6)District: (7.8)BB: (9.1)Razor: I love how the main riff does a sort of baton pass from the guitar leading to the drums leading, really cool. Probably one of Nirvana's hookiest songs too (9.5)Adrian: While I don't know a ton of Nirvana's music, I remember listening to this one a lot when I was younger and I think it aged quite well over the years! (8.5)Enya: If you’re the same person who submitted “Something in the Way”, I swear to god… Anywho, this song is very Nirvana but isn’t my favorite. Anything that isn’t the chorus kinda drags for me especially the weak guitar solo. (6.9)Austin: the better of the 2 nirvana songs submitted (9)Tay: (9.8)Fearless: The thing I really like about this song is that the song is about fans who don’t actually understand Nirvana’s songs. I just find that really funny. It’s really good musically as well, it’s one of my favorites from Nevermind. (9.1)Lord: This is middle-of-the-road for Nirvana standards. A perfectly fine song, if not overplayed. Disregarding hidden tracks, the weakest song on Nevermind. (7.5)Overall Score: 86.8 Final Challenge Results:Song #1:
ABBA - Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! (A Man After Midnight)Judge's Thoughts:Nick: I like this as a song that sums up your PAR experience, as it helped elevate you two to your second leg win and really established you both as frontrunners for the PAR title (9.5)District: (9.4)Samo: amazing sample. (9.8)Zedd: (9.2)BB: (9.2)Overall Score: 47.1
Song #2:
Manchester Orchestra - The GoldJudge's Thoughts:Nick: Contrary to ABBA, which was sent for your second leg win, this track was a key part of your first leg win, so I would say it works for this theme for the same reasons (9.6)
District: (9.1)
Samo: amazing guitar. (8.2)
Zedd: (9)
BB: (7.3)
Overall Score: 43.2
Despite a strong second half to your race, struggles with the detour this leg landed you two in third place for PAR: All Stars. Thank you for playing!

The runner-up is...
2. Wamba No. 5 (willapted33 & Sambalada )Overall Score: 438.3 | Detour Ranks: #1, #3 | Roadblock #1 Rank: #2 | Roadblock #2 Rank: #3 | Final Challenge Ranks: #4, #5 | Bonus From Last Leg: +0Detour Results:
Song #1:
Portishead - Glory Box(Fossil Mall)Judge's Thoughts:Nick: The instrumentation here is fantastic, as is the vocal performance with its variations between being restrained in the verses to letting loose more in the chorus. I also love the heavier guitar riff that plays throughout the later parts of the song (9.7)District: (9)Razor: Beautiful song with some really cool instrumentation. Love this (9.5)Adrian: I dig the sensual vibe and I like her vocal style. But this doesn't strike me as something super memorable. (7.6)Rom: what even is a "box" lets be real here folks (10)Enya: Wow! This is so slinky and suspenseful. I desperately need to strip to this song. (9.1)Austin: this is amazing (9.5)Tay: (7.5)Fearless: This song took a really long time to grow on me, but when it hit, it hit very different. I love the atmosphere the music creates. (9.3)Lord: This is possibly the sexiest song ever made. Everything from her vocals to the bassline to the atmosphere is just shimmering bliss. (10)Overall Score: 91.2 Song #2:The Psychedelic Furs - Love My Way(Studio Sprawl)Judge's Thoughts:Nick: This is incredibly 80s, in a great way though! (8.8)District: (9.5)Razor: Awesome, love the driving riff and the atmospheric synths. A classic (9.6)Adrian: I love this, especially in the context of the movie! It's upbeat, it's fun, it's super enjoyable all around (8.7)Rom: not sure what those wood blocks are about but its good i cant think of anything kind of funny to say so like heres a score (7.2)Enya: I don’t remember this from Valley Girl or The Wedding Singer but I do remember it from Call Me by Your Name, in which it’s used to perfection as a mating dance between Elio and Oliver at the start of their summer love. (9.7)Austin: (7.5)Tay: (8.9)Fearless: I love the instrumentals on this one (whatever instrument is doing that riff, it’s so memorable) and it’s super catchy too. Overall it’s new wave goodness. (9.2)Lord: Love this song, from the deep sultry vocals to the marimba. An absolute singalong. (9)Overall Score: 88.1 Roadblock #1 Results:Janet Jackson - If(Sent by Will)Judge's Thoughts:Nick: The song has a pretty cool beat and groove to it, but it doesn’t strike me as overly memorable in a way that I’ll be returning to it much (7.7)District: (8.7)Zedd: (8.7)Razor: That guitar solo was kinda weak but this song is really good despite it (8.9)Adrian: The instrumental here is pretty on point. I love the R&B mixed with rock sound and it's worked for her quite a bit! Those tend to be my favorites of her discography. (8.6)Rom: just really good. i cant say anything about it funny again damn i hate this (8.5)Enya: I’m going to preface this by saying I love Janet and specifically “If”. However, my issue with this submission is that it’s just a lazy interpretation of the theme. Janet is probably the most famous sibling to any celebrity ever, so it’s not like this took you much thought and even then, Janet found incredible success, and in some stats surpassed her brother. There were many other Jackson siblings that would’ve shown more enthusiasm for the theme, in my opinion. (5.6)Austin: (8.5)Tay: (9.5)Fearless: If I remember correctly, this was the winner for the Janet Jackson rankdown. I’m not sure if I would say this is my favorite Janet song, but it’s definitely up there (it was my #3 there). It’s such a bop. (9.4)Lord: This was fine. Sounds like a washed out mess at some parts and not enough interesting elements to elevate it above just ok. (6.6)Overall Score: 90.7 Roadblock #2 Results:
Mac Miller - Blue World(Sent by Samba)Judge's Thoughts:Nick: This beat is fantastic, so dreamy and spacey (9)District: (8.6)BB: (8.4)Razor: Pretty good, I just don't care for Mac's voice. (7.2)Adrian: While I'm not a big fan of Mac, I respect him as an artist and this song is pretty decent. The production is kind of interesting. (7.3)Enya: I’m not a huge Mac Miller fan but this song is pretty good. The production is top notch and while his flow isn’t phenomenal, it’s at least coherent and melodic to the beat. (8.2)Austin: (8)Tay: (8.3)Fearless: It’s pretty bittersweet looking at the lyrics for this one (obviously being from a posthumous album adds to that too), I don’t know if I’m personally the biggest fan of the sample flip, but it’s a pretty solid track regardless. (8)Lord: Everything about this song from the samples to the lyrics works very well. A solid song, just nothing to elevate to the heights of his best work. (7.8)Overall Score: 80.8 Final Challenge Results:Song #1:Fiona Apple - Paper BagJudge's Thoughts:Nick: I would say that this song is more responsible than any other for you being here since it saved you from elimination last time, so it represents your time on PAR in that regard (9)District: (9)Samo: amazing sad. (8.4)Zedd: (8.8)BB: (8.4)Overall Score: 43.6 Song #2:Hatchie - Lights OnJudge's Thoughts:Nick: I like this for a song representing your time on PAR since you two sent this song for the first leg that you won after struggling the prior legs (9.1)District: (8.4)Samo: amazing bop. (8.7)Zedd: (8.2)BB: (9.5)Overall Score: 43.9
Despite an all around solid performance this leg, you two were out done in a few spots by one other team, which means that your PAR: All Stars journey has come to an end in 2nd place. Thank you for playing!
The winning team of PAR: All Stars is...
1. Borussia Dortmund (filthy & born )Overall Score: 442.6 | Detour Ranks: #2, #4 | Roadblock #1 Rank: #3 | Roadblock #2 Rank: #1 | Final Challenge Ranks: #1, #3Detour Results:Song #1:A Tribe Called Quest - Electric Relaxation(Fossil Mall)Judge's Thoughts:Nick: This song is infectious and, appropriately, gives off a relaxing vibe (9)District: (8.6)Razor: Massive undeniable vibes (9.2)Adrian: So groovy, so jazzy, and just such a vibe! What's not to love about this? (8.8)Rom: im relaxed... (7.1)Enya: This was funky and a discovery for me. Definitely going on my beach playlist! (8.7)Austin: (8)Tay: (6.4)Fearless: This is really smooth - the rap, the beat, everything. (8.7)Lord: Perfectly relaxing banger. (9.2)Overall Score: 83.7 Song #2:Sixpence None the Richer - Kiss Me(Studio Sprawl)Judge's Thoughts:Nick: This song is so cute and fun, it has such a pleasant energy to it. (9.8)District: (9.2)Razor: Really pretty song. So catchy too (9.3)Adrian: Ahhh I'm such a sucker for nostalgic songs! I don't even remember where I've heard this song before, but it just has that nostalgic feel to it. It's a very pretty tune that always makes me smile! (9)Rom: arent these guys a christian band? talking about "kiss me"? are these two even MARRIED to one another? disgusts me. truly (7)Enya: You cannot hear this song and not think of Laney & Zack dancing by the pool. It’s literally impossible to disconnect the two (unless you’re a monster who’s never seen She’s All That). This song encapsulates Parisian love with just a simple accordion that no other song has done since. (9)Austin: lol ill never be sick of this! (9)Tay: (10)Fearless: “Kiss Me” is such a cute song. The music and the vocals have this innocence to it, which I believe might be the song’s biggest charm. It has a pleasant melody too making it overall a pleasant and fun listen as well. (8.8)Lord: Lovely, breezy song with a great hook. Simply irresistible. (8.3)Overall Score: 89.4 Roadblock #1 Results:Solange - Cranes in the Sky(Sent by Filthy)Judge's Thoughts:Nick: Good vibes (8.1)District: (7.9)Zedd: (8.3)Razor: Absolute vibes (9)Adrian: I've never been big on Solange's music, but this is probably my favorite of her songs that I've heard. She has a really good voice. (8)Rom: you know how do people put up cranes? i see cranes and im like "thats a crane" and then im like "yo how did they put it there did they just load it on the back of a truck or something? did they have different pieces and put it together like a lego set or something?" i dont get cranes man (7.6)Enya: This is my favorite interpretation of the theme. Solange found her niche but never really broke out in the mainstream. This song is gorgeous and really shows off the delicate nuances in her vocals, which is the complete opposite of her powerhouse sister. (9.5)Austin: the clear worst song of this set (4)Tay: (8.6)Fearless: “Cranes in the Sky” is a beautifully done song. The production is really pretty and the introspective lyrics are also great. (9)Lord: A gorgeous and meditative song with fantastic lyricism. (8.2)Overall Score: 88.2 Roadblock #2 Results:Mitski - Nobody(Sent by Born)Judge's Thoughts:Nick: Mitski is always one of those artists that I’ve wanted to like more than I do, and I would say this song kinda falls into that same boat. It’s fun, I just don’t connect with it as much as I would like to (8.6)District: (9.6)BB: (9.2)Razor: This feels like someone who has guarded themselves from emotion finally breaking that wall down and allowing themselves to love again. At least that's the feeling I get (9.8)Adrian: This one is kind of a bop! I really dig the production here. The chorus is just a little repetitive for me, but she sounds good! (8.1)Enya: I’ve tried Mitski a few times and she never grabs me enough to come back but this song might be doing that for me. The production is so funky and her vocals bounce along to it nicely. (8.5)Austin: i didnt know this at all before this, its not one I would seek out again but I am glad for the exposure. a nice listen. (7)Tay: (9.6)Fearless: “Nobody” was one of the first Mitski songs I liked, and having seen Mitski live, my appreciation for this song has only increased. Who knew repeating “nobody” a bazillion times would be such a banger? (9.5)Lord: This is a fun unescapable bop. Love the buildup and her voice is simply angelic. (8.7)Overall Score: 88.6 Final Challenge Results:Song #1:Alvvays - Your TypeJudge's Thoughts:Nick: This song represents an important part of your time this season, which was your early season dominance. I dig it as a pick here (9.5)District: (9.6)Samo: i listened to this 15 times in a day when i first heard it for this. (9.5)Zedd: (9.5)BB: (9.4)Overall Score: 47.5 Song #2:Oasis - Don't Look Back in AngerJudge's Thoughts:Nick: I think this song compliments your other choice for the theme well, as both reflect your strong points early in the season (9.9)
District: (8.7)
Samo: amazing british. (9.2)
Zedd: (7.6)
BB: (9.1)
Overall Score: 44.5
After an inconsistent race, you two brought the consistency to this final leg, performing well in every challenge and securing your position as the winning team of PAR: All Stars.
However

wish we were 3rd place instead if the only reason we make it to top 2 and don't win is cause of a faulty judge

Weyes Blood - AndromedaJudge's Thoughts:Nick: This song is very sweet, very spacey (9.5)District: (9.2)Will: (10)Samo: amazing vibes. (9.8)Zedd: (8.3)Samba: the youngest song in this set but also the strongest. Simply beautiful and classically resounding.

(9.4)Red: (8.9)Overall Score: 65.1You received the only score below an 8 this leg, which ultimately sunk your chances of winning and caused you to come up just short.

Yooooo that’s a great way to end this amazing season. Once again I had so much fun being a part of this. Thank you for your scores. 💓 A big thank you to our hosts who made this all possible, we might spam you with “par eta”s out of excitement but I would honestly never have the kind of patience it takes to do this. Nick & District, you are rockstars.🌟 Also thank you to all of the rotating (& guest) judges as well as the players. I had so much fun beating playing with you. 🎲 And last but definitely not least, a big hug to my mate. No shade to everyone else, but filthy out of my three runs you were my best partner. Can you say legendaric? bornussia dortmund july 17 2022 🔥

If this had to be the last season, I'm so glad Born took the crown (And even used 2 of the songs when we teamed up! Taste!),
Congratulations you're #1 I wanna thank you for a job well-done
