I'll look at those Virtual Idol links later, around the point I get to those Mandroid ones.

And so we come to the top 70. It's an important milestone.

1: That means we're only a week away from the end.

and more importantly

2: We've reached the next-to-last big step in point increases! While we'll likely be here for quite a while, all of these songs just barely missed the top tier and should be commended for getting as close as they did.



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

#70 [#220]:

Name: The Christmas Song
Origin: Pokmon Christmas Bash (Orig. Nat King Cole; Arr. "Team Rocket")

More seriously, I want to like thisI absolutely adore songs performed by fictional characters and I like Team Rocket, but I hate Christmas music and this doesnt do enough to differentiate itself from the original song. Like, with the Spiderverse Christmas album, there were changed lyrics and bits of comedy in the songs themselvesMiles begging the audience to give him funding for his web fluid, Peter as a failing lounge singer annoying MJbut after the intro, this song is just some voice actors singing a song I hate. I think the only lyric change was "Reindeer" to "Stantler", which is cute, but not cute enough. You get a bunch of bonus points for general concept and singing villains, but theres a limit on how far personal bias alone can carry you.]

Uhh...past me, you do realize pesonal bias is THE ONLY CRITERIA, right? If I wanted to go "Song has Meowth, ten million points awarded", there is literally nothing stopping me?

*ears twitch as she considers moving this song into first place specifically to spite past Raetsel*

Ehhhh... it's awfully tempting, but I guess I don't actually want to do that.

...well maybe not first place, but we can give this a 9, can't we?

Also you have no idea how much I wanted to squeal when you listed it as being by Team Rocket instead of listing the voice actors names. Like I know you don't really get me (no one in this dimension could), but you kinda get me, ya know?

[Final Thoughts: As much as I love Meowth, it's actually James that carries the song as far it went. He just sounds like he's having so much fun with it and never fails to make me laugh. I never make it through the second verse without at least smiling.

But, I really don't like Christmas music--it's cute, it's funny, it's amusing, and it makes it so close to the end... but top 70 is as far as it's getting.]

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

And then no one was able to contact Placeee again. Was he a ghost? Or is it because that's not how you spell his name and he has no reason to respond to it?

My money is on "Ghost".


In Memorium

Lowest Ranked Song: Technopolis (273rd Place)

Highest Ranked Song: The Christmas Song (70th Place)



When you mentioned liking unique songs (or abnormal songs, or however you put it), I was incredibly excited to dive into your list. I fully expected my complaint to be that the list was either too normal or that it took too long to get to the weirdness... but your highest ranked song was one of the most normal and nothing makes sense anymore.
