571: KIRBY AIR RIDE - CHECKER KNIGHTS:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JQY9ZW-MkKg

Nominator: Hbthebattle (11/11)

Initial Score: 41.26 [#499]
Revised Score: 34.83 [#542]
Final Score: 30.00 [#571]

(First Thoughts: It feels like the soundtrack to a silent movie about the circus, and not a very interesting movie at that.)

Well, today it feels like a Russian circus, which is apparently worth less than a silent movie circus.

*insert Zangief & Gorbachevs dance gif here*

So, I dont usually like Kirby (other than Super Star which is still great), but the games do have some good songs here & there. Some of my favorite discoveries of the last two VGMCs were finding some Kirby songs that I actually enjoythough I cant recall their names, there were some. Pretty sure they werent from Air Ride though. To the best of my knowledge, Ive never liked any of the songs from the OST (or the game itself, or anything about the game). This song is just dull and un-fun and I dont know how it made it so relatively high up the list on the first listen.

[Final Thoughts: I give this song partial credit for feeling like some type of ambience, but Im just not interested in circuses. Not bothered or triggered by them, just not something I care about or want to experience. Which makes this a bit of a dud... still, worth some credit.]

Nominator: sergiocornaga (17/18)

Initial Score: 48.00 [#449]
Revised Score: 31.82 [#549]
Final Score: 30.50 [#570]

(First Thoughts: Okay? Im fine with simple piano music, but this...is just okay?)

Unrelated Tangent - Whenever I see this song, I have flashbacks to Amazin Fruit commercials:

Ive had Its Amazin Fruit! Amazin Fruit, Amazin Fruit, yeah! stuck in my head for so...so very long. Id say it was one of the most effective commercials of all time, but I actually never felt inclined to try the product which probably counts as a failure on its part.

I have no idea why this songs title gives me flashbacks to this commercial since they dont have a single word in common, but thats still where my mind goes.

Aaanywho... song itself is just kinda dull? Not sure why the score was so much higher the first time around.

[Final Thoughts: o.O?

...Okay, I really have no idea where that Amazin Fruit bit came from as I have no memory of typing that, nor can I find any way of connecting the commercial jingle to any aspect of this song. Thats just...weird.

Either way, my thoughts on the song seem summed up by okay? Its...okay, I guess? I certainly dont dislike it, but... okay?]
