oh don't get me wrong -- Poet and the Muse is fantastic (though I think of that more as a Poets of the Fall song, who I prefer more [edit i'm dumb and i knew there was overlap but i didn't think it was literally 100% the same people]). I just... I dunno. I think I've let myself get really bothered in recent days by the feeling that e.g. on Supra, people tried to submit the #1 song in a style, were told someone else beat them to the punch, so they just nommed their second favorite thing in that style. So as someone who's not the biggest fan of that particular style, I wind up wishing that they'd gone in an orthogonal direction instead.
and like obviously that's all speculation, for all i know i'm just insulting someone else's favorite song in the game and i'm completely being a jerk, but >_>
Yeah I think that's fair to want variety. Idk if I've ever come across as hostile, but I guess I just get a little nettled by this kind of assumption when ... I don't feel like it applies to me at all? I dunno, I feel like it'd be good to approach this topic in good faith?? I think it's easier for stuff you don't like to stick out more than stuff you do sometimes. I think I'm just a little confused by this pushback personally haha, so I just proved my own case ig
Also Late Goodbye is really, really good. But this coming from me is unsurprising. :p
