Dagothwave (I don't know who made this)

Nominator: Anagram (1/3)


I've mentioned loving 80s nostalgia, comedy songs (err, I did actually mention that somewhere before now, didn't I?), and villain songs. This song combines all three of those things to virtual perfection. The only thing holding it back is that I don't like it repeating the "No Recall or Intervention can work in this place / There is no escape" line four times in a row. I'm sure the creator was stuck working with what dialogue was available, but one more unique line of dialogue for the second verse would have helped tremendously.

[FINAL NOTES: I played a decent amount of Morrowind, but mostly I just stumbled around aimlessly stealing everything from every town before quitting. so I have no idea who Dagoth Ur even is.

In Memoriam

Lowest Ranked Song: Soviet March (172nd Place)
Highest Ranked Song: Dagothwave (5th Place)

Well, you definitely survived the longest in the DANGER ZONE / Death Omen Star, surviving 129 songs (or was it 128? I are bad at math) before your final nomination dropped. While I wasn't too fond of your other two songs, or the Civilization song you wished you nominated, this song was truly amazing.



[FINAL-ER NOTES: Not sure how you could be surprised with this song getting a high placement.

1: I told everyone in the opening post that objective quality was irrelevant to me. The only factor is how much I enjoyed the song.

2: I've admitted to liking objectively terrible things before. I even specifically called out "Whip My Hair" by The Chipettes as being a song I can't truly hate due to the furry-ness of shaking your tail.

I need you to understand; I listen to this song voluntarily (though not too often, admittedly). I own the album. It is horrible, but I don't care--it amuses me and non-human singers are worth infinity bonus points.

3: I've praised Nekrogoblin on multiple posts for playing non-human characters. I may be furry, but I appreciate all forms of non-human singers.

4: I repeatedly complained that the list needed more lighthearted songs to counter some of the more depressing songs.

5: Go back to the writeup for "Friends Forever"

Obscure references? Check

Fictional Bands? Check

This song has those too.

6: Go back to the writeup for "The Haunting (Somewhere in Time)

I'm a fan of Veritas, as I'm a sucker for villain songs and it's basically the most JRPG Final Boss-esque song in existence.

Go ahead and take a quick look at Veritas:

"You will kneel before me and you will confess that I'm God!". Factor in that Dagothwave also features a villain declaring themselves a God and that it's literally about an RPG boss...

Seriously, I was worried that my writeups were too heavily implying Dagothwave was getting an insanely high placement. And this is a song that I came back to on a regular basis throughout the ranking process. When I needed to laugh, or relax, or take a break, this song was always there to cheer me up. Have I cut a lot of objectively better songs than this one? Yep. But I can stand by it because, COME ON, this song was practically created specifically to appeal to me.]
