Spoon - This Book is a Movie

First song to cross into solidly good territory. Really like the atmosphere here.

The Spill Canvas - Lusta Prima Vista

Feels a bit out of place in this category but not out of place in my heart.

Phil Collins - Sussudio

Like Asek's last submission I'm just enjoying this. Chill atmosphere packing great trumpets.

Duran Duran - American Science

Slower synth, I can dig it. With these guitars and trumpets especially so.

Tim Curry - Toxic Love

Fucking Fern Gully lyrics aside this has really great instrumentation and is one of the only jazz tracks you guys attempted to sumbit. And a great one at that.

Dire Straits - Brothers in Arms

Between the trumpet guitar and sax tones this is exactly what I need in my life. Good fucking job.

Podium Points not taken into account, and I'm too lazy to take another screenshot

I would like to start judging Category 7, Radio Smogon, and any songs you missed in the earlier ones by Wednesday the 13th. Please get them in.

Chris Kogos- Song of Screams

Wow, I just don't know. The original is okay and this is semi-insufferable.

Undertale OST - Bird That Carries You Over A Disproportionately Small Gap

Sure? It's about as palatable as a glass of water and it's over as fast as I can drink it.

John Williams - Main Theme (E.T. The Extraterrestrial)

It's charming and the few moments with trumpets are great but I'm just feeling so lukewarm on it. Not quite what I'm looking for to relisten to.

Bunker Soldier - Flying

This is certainly pleasant but I forgot it the morning after I listened to it. There are just other things in this category which stand out more.

mass of the fermenting dregs - ハイライト

This gets a few weirdness points for me but it's hard to listen to consistently.

PJ Harvey - Legs

"She ain't afraid" is right and I love it. The instrumentals don't quite have the same effect, though.

Muse - Explorers

Certainly fine, but not eye opening, kind of the definition of a 7.5 since it doens't make the playlist. I do like the slow build it's a good take on this category.

Homestuck Vol 10. - Skaian Happy Flight

Like a better version of that E.T. song, it just feels more full bodied.

Five For Fighting - Above The Timberline

This one just kind of stuck on me, the vocals are really nice in particular. Good pick.

Smooth McGroove - Undertale - Another Medium Acapella

Acapella is a bit of a miss most of the time for me but this guy's pretty chill and this cover is probably better than the original. Way to hit aubisio where he lives, right in the Undertale.

medasin - Leaving Earth

I'm loving the bass here and the atmosphere. Reviewing this now It just doesn't feel the same without my good headphones.

Camille Saint-Saens - Danse Macabere

Really rich and interesting classical music that's different from what I usually listen to, which makes me very happy.

Jeff Buckley - Grace

I think for this one a lot of small factors combined to create an interesting experience. Definitely one I didn't expect to enjoy as much as I did.

Black Label Society - Stillborn

Honestly this is just a stone cold killer of a song and only gets kicked here because the other submissions are more interesting.

Liv Moon - Fly

This song absolutely rocks in a few places and sounds like a mediocre anime OP in others. Overall a solid choice.
