I'm hoping to end this Post Ranking by July 1st, so let's step things up a bit while my wrists feel up to it. Finishing all of the songs from post #316:

-

======================

Takanashi Neiro - Itsuka no Haru no hi no Koto:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qmMbLhPD3NM

Estimated Score: 59.66

A pretty nice instrumental song. I never quite get an emotional connection to the song, but the instruments are pretty and I enjoy listening to it; I'm thinking it'd probably fit best just before the 60 point cluster, but it is pretty enough that I wouldn't be surprised to see it get the last few fractions of a point after a few more listens.

sulawo - ofuton:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B5A1niUz69c

Estimated Score: 60.00

"I forgot how to live" is a suitably bleak lyric, thank you. I'm also curiously drawn to the vocalizations here? I'm aware that they're doing things I should hate, with the way the audio bounces back-and-forth but... hmm. Some how her voice is soft enough that the effect is actually rather pleasing, as opposed to painful or infuriating. I think this is another song that I'd like to start at exactly 60 points--doing something I hate in a way that I like automatically makes the song something that I should do a closer examination of & while the lyrics aren't perfect, they do offer some things for me to reflect on. I like this.

sulawo - ofuton :
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3-BAnfYVPik

Estimated Score: 64.07

(Before Listening): I'm not sure about covering the follow-up song immediately, but I'll give it a shot.

(After): Hmm... let me come back to this one in a minute; it's quite different compared to the previous song and it's throwing my reactions off a bit.

(Later): She's definitely someone that I'd like to hear more of. The most baffling thing is the way she does things that I shouldn't like, but does it in a way that I'm rather drawn to. Like, I don't usually go for repetition, but her chorus--which is mostly one word repeated over-and-over--is incredibly catchy. I think I'd like to place this in the mid-60s... I don't know that I'd say that I "really like it" enough to go up a tier, but I do quite like that chorus & her voice in general.

sulawo feat. Kashino Tsukune - Saikou no Shokutaku:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZIxzyboeL4Q

Estimated Score: 48.37

Breakfast of lies! I.. suppose it's sad-ish & not really food related enough to be dismissed as a "food song", but I'm not a fan of the way their voices go together and the sadness is vague enough that it may be all in my head:

Rubbing my sleepy eyes
Yawn
I'm not motivated

I wonder if I'll make something
Can I go outside
Anything is possible

I just want to think that today is wonderful
I still want to dream

[...[

Fake breakfast
Let's fill it with lies


I feel like the obvious reading here is that she's lying to herself about actually doing anything--it's possible and she wants to think that it's a wonderful day, but she knows that she's lying. ...But then the few comments there are seem to be talking about how super happy the song is & I... don't really have strong enough feelings about the song that I want to analyze it any further anyway.

Score starts below 50 points, but I'm sure it's going to be fairly memorable, so it's easy to picture it hitting 55 points in the future.

Kashino Tsukune - Sonzai:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZzYu5ha5ghg

Estimated Score: 53.800031

It's fine. Video had a cat, so that was kinda neat--actually the entire video was kinda neat, though not enough that it really influenced anything. I don't quite think it's at the 55 point mark, but I feel generally positive towards it. I do like the description of the album: "3rd album of rock singer Sone Kashino who wants to deliver to you who are weak.
Sou Kashino exists in every world, virtual or real."

Okay, now back to ofuton II.

Re:A Project - Since-Re:ly ~ Sincerely (composer: Namba Ken):
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8xfeej2eC2U

Estimated Score: 52.16

Sorry. It's a nice enough song, but it feels like a fairly standard group song & I never get really into any of it. It's nice enough that I don't have any complaints, but it's just nice

======================

Mameko - Yuurei Ressha wa Kyou mo Ouku (composer: Rissyuu):
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eU5ej0hBDu0

Estimated Score: 40.00

...Right, this was probably Unlisted at the time you linked it here & then published later, causing the date to shift. I think that's how YouTube displays dates, just took me a while to remember.

The song feels significantly more artificial than any other track tonight (and I'm not sure how far back I'd have to go to find one this synthetic), but it's not really in a way that I find appealing... I wouldn't say that I want to drop it below 40 points, but I'm bouncing fairly hard off of this track.

======================

Momota Momo - Gyutto. (original: Mosawo):
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UK1ZhKiTHLo

Estimated Score: A volatile song with a score that's likely to bounce anywhere between 57 & 90 points depending on emotional state. I'm going to go with "60.00", but I have no confidence in this.

Cute song. We've got the standard "cute romance" lyrics about wanting to be held tightly which always play well and it's *close* to resonating. Like, I'm not really connecting with it, but looking at the lyrics there's almost a reaction... so I could go with a fairly low 57 point "it's cute and close to being what i want, but I never really connect with it" response like right now--or I could gamble on this song completely destroying me on certain days & give it a higher score on the basis that I'm sure it *could* reach a high score, if constantly reevaluated over the course of a year. ...Think i'll just throw it into the Clump of 60 points? Which... doesn't exactly feel right, but shall suffice for this topic's purposes.
