And now, we cut three more songs that I already loved before this topic started.

Also, let's go up to 7.5 for a brief moment.

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

#86 [THREE WAY TIE] [#18]:

Name: Sanctuary (Opening)
Origin: Kingdom Hearts 2 (Utada Hikaru)

Nominator: Placeee (4/15)

(9, 9.7, 7.5)

[Its funny. Before I started this topic, I had just started a Critical run of KH2HD but decided Id rather find more new music than replay the game. I didnt really expect it to follow me. Good song, bonus for backwards messages.]

I love Kingdom Hearts and I love vocal distortions including backwards messages, so this song has a massive bias in its favor. Usually, that bias is enough to carry it even further into the rankings, but I'm not as into it right now.

Nominator: NBIceman (5/15)

(9, 9, 7.5)

[Another one of my favorite songs, Ive had this on several mp3 players and playlists over the years.]

[Original write-up redacted. It directly referenced this song's placement in regards to certain other songs, but now that everything's being shuffled around it was no longer applicable.]

Cutting this one hurts, but old obsessions always have a hard time competing against new obsessions. And as I look over the list of everything remaining, I'm forced to admit that, as of the time this is being written I would rather sacrifice this song than any of the other options.

I came really close to dividing the list between "songs I already know incredibly well" and "songs I don't know as well, if at all" in order to avoid this type of scenario. I just didn't like the way the topic would have looked. The two lists would be of drastically different sizes and, if I told everyone the list was being split that way, it could influence people's choice of nominations--I think people would probably intentionally nominate more songs I already know if there was to be a separate category for them.

Also "ranks 300 songs" is a better title than "ranks an unknown number of songs on two lopsided lists"...

Still, perhaps I should do that next time? Though there are a lot of other gimmick list ideas I'd be tempted to try too... well, doesn't matter right now, I suppose.
