Alrighty, just spotted a couple of issues with the playlist...

-The "Stamp" song isn't the version from the OST, it's definitely a cover and well, it's a cover that's probably better than the original so maybe you should keep it, lol. For reference, here's the official soundtrack version: https://soundcloud.com/crystalchobo4/d8-23-stamp-global-jukebox-ver-final-fantasy-vii-remake-ost and I believe this a youtube copy of that official version too in case you wanted to switch it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0H6PV9eUkg4

-Big respect for the "This Is Not" guy keeping remake tracks alive on youtube but "This Is Not The Valkyrie" begins with "Run, Dammit, Run", a separate song off the Remake Plus OST that's not part of the actual Valkyrie theme. The actual song begins at the 1:45 mark/switch to "Phase 1". If we wanted a "clean" version of "The Valkyrie" this should be it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ozzz1UmrP5c

In any case, the track lengths should be 8:50 for Valkyrie and 4:42 for Stamp per the OST, give or take a second or two.

Other than those other two potential updates, only thinking about a 3rd thing that's probably pointless to think about at this point but still dwelling on it. My great debate at the nomination stage was whether to nom Ghoul, or Ghoulish Symphony:

The latter is off the Remake Plus OST and has an additional minute and change of cutscene-linked buildup whereas "Ghoul" is just the proper boss theme that plays in that + 2 other boss fights in the game. I didn't go with Symphony in the end since I thought the extra build-up time (adding onto an already-lengthy song) might turn listeners off. But now that it's up against A Fleeting Dream, kind of regret not pushing Symphony! Emphasis on "pushing" since it was just my double + two trades for Ghoul in the end.

I wonder if it would've made a difference either way in the final votals, I expect Fleeting Dream to win in either case, I consider that a top-tier track and possible title challenger if it can get out of its division, but maybe I'll get surprised when the round actually happens...
