430: MASAFUMI TAKADA - WONDERFUL DEAD:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aRGIdqezA94&list=PLLmUcHIAJVw_GCWsy10Bv4-rtr6XDQfSU&index=6

Nominator: DoctorJimmmy133 (16/27)
Source: Cwypt of the Nyecwodancew Danganwonpa (10/20)

Initial Score: 50.80 [#390]
Revised Score: 54.81 [#368]
Final Score: 51.54 [#430]

(First Thoughts: The out of place vocalizations did make me laugh, but Im not sure this is actually funny enough to deserve a high score.)

Kinda funny and kinda catchy, but not funny enough that I have to give it a great score or catchy enough that it gets stuck on my head on a regular basis. Its still a good song and definitely one of the best on the album, but I think I want to keep the score in the low 50s. Sorry.

[Final Thoughts: I really do like this song and I almost want to jump it up a while tier... but... not really? Its always the same response: Oh hey, I remember this track! Im actually looking forward to hearing this again. and then keeping it in the low 50s because Im still...not that into it.

...very tempting to move this further up the list, but... yeah, I think Im going to leave it here.]

429: ESPERANTO - ELEANOR RIGBY:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GApsh4Vw6_8

Nominator: rwlh (14/15)

Initial Score: 40.71 [#503]
Revised Score: 54.88 [#367]
Final Score: 51.57 [#429]

(First Thoughts: A rather unpleasant and bizarre cover of Eleanor Rigby, which is...odd and not in a way that I like.)

Trying to find other peoples comments on this song, I see someone calling it [a] complete deconstruction of Eleanor Rigby which more or less until the third minute of the song is unrecognizable.

That sounds like its putting my thoughts into words that people could actually understand; its such a very sharp departure from the original song thateven as someone who has never been a big fan of The Beatles or the original version of Eleanor Rigbythe song sounds incredibly wrong. With a bit more familiarity with this version, Im starting to appreciate it a little? Id at least say my feelings are slightly positive this time around.

(Unrelated to anything, but Eleanor Rigby is permanently associated with Family Ties in my mind. I dont know why, but I half-remember an episode where the father quotes the face that she keeps in a jar by the door line... though I dont recall the context. Google tells me the exact episode the scene happens in, but not the full dialogue and I dont care enough to find a way to actually watch the episode.)

[Final Thoughts: Its a very intriguing song, but I think I like it more in a wow, this is an interesting nomination way than an actually want to listen to it on a regular basis way.]
