Nominator: dragon (3/10)

(10, 10, 10)

[Well, that gave me a really intense dream sequence. For a few minutes, I...was someone new. I doubt Ill give you the full details, but this transformed me and I dont think I can thank you enough for the experience.]

If you want to intrude on my personal fantasies, then once again, they will be available for one day.

Or to keep things vague (and to leave a write-up that will actually be archived somewhere): This song inspired some incredibly vivid fantasies and led me to experience emotions that were (and still are) completely foreign to me, so I feel I owe you for that.

Song itself is nice. She's got a pleasing voice and while I typically shy away from any songs rambling about the light in people (see: the Il divo song that dropped so long ago), this song was inexplicably good enough to get by my natural aversion to it.

#15 [#36]:

Name: Misery
Origin: Creeper
Link: https://open.spotify.com/track/4FNc69n63w5mulCWpc76zH?si=mPH6sOGNQh-QbIo7biwLyw

Nominator: Bane (1/15)

(8, 9, 9.5 [later upgraded to a 10])

[Another song that's close to what I was looking for.]

It's sad and somewhat dark, without actuallly being miserable. There are some truly depressing lyrics in some of these nominations, but this song never really goes beyond "if you could see the wreck I am these days, you'd have new reasons to stay away".

Which, sure, is a sad lyric but not actually depressing. I think a somewhat sarcastic reviewer put it best:

Creeper... throw all their sadness at "Misery" and that sadness sticks, resulting in the sort of track that you would listen to when you're taking a self-indulgent walk in the rain hoping that people will notice you've left the house and be worried because you're a huge attention seeker

As someone who absolutely adores walking in the rain and occasionally wants attention, that's actually a really good description of this song's feeling. Pretty much exactly what I wanted. It's emo (I think, let's not pretend that I actually know what emo music is; Wikipedia lists one of their genres as emo--of course they list Coheed & Cambria as part emo, so I guess everything is emo these days? But I digress), but fairly tame--no wrist cutting, no talk of suicide, just...ya know...mild sadness, slight melancholy, and what not. It's nice.

Another band I should probably try to look into later... I could use an entire playlist of songs like this one.

[Final Thoughts:

Me: I want a hundred songs exactly like this one!

Also Me: *still doesn't give it a 10*

Yeah, this is the song that was upgraded to a 10 at the last possible second, back at 41st place. After I joked about how ridiculous it was that I wasn't giving it a 10, I realized that it really deserved one and that I was pretty sure I'd take it over some of the songs that already had 10s. It threw the list into a bit of a tailspin, as I had to frantically go over everything to see what other soon-to-be-eliminated songs were going to be moved up to 10s.

Either way, I was serious about wanting an entire playlist of songs with this sort of feel to them. Exactly what I was looking for.]

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

And the teams even out, with two members each as the second Panther drops.

In Memorium

Lowest Song: Highway Jones (232nd Place)

Highest Song: Misery (15th Place)

Me: This song is exactly what I wanted!

Also Me: *puts 14 other songs ahead of it anyway*

I don't really want to drop this yet, but we're getting close to the end. The competition between songs #8-#20 is rather intense... honestly, I could justify shuffling every song in that range into any order and it'd work.
