there actually is another song i probably 100% would've picked had it been fully out then though that also has a harumaki gohan-esque music video, remind me to bring it up if/when the ranking ends in another year or so lol

I have made a note of this, so I'll try to do so.

Up next, our first elimination with a rather chaotic score: It started fairly decently for novelty value, fell three tiers to absolute last place, and then bounced back up two tiers to land here:

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

#778: On The Franches Mountains - Jura Orchestra (AKA The Yodeler Song from Price Is Right) [3:10]:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h12F120ffYg

Nominator: paulg [49 Remaining]

Initial Score: 40.00
Revised Score: 9.15
Final Score: 24.00

(First Reaction: I'm not a fan of yodeling, but I think i should give some points for the sheer novelty of the nomination.)

Ehh... I'm really quite actively not in the mood for this right now. I'm sorry, but I don't have any real nostalgia for The Price Is Right specifically--it's a fine show and I watched it quite a bit, but let's just say the years I watched it weren't exactly the best & trying to flash back to when I watched it on a regular basis would be a bad idea--and... I just rather aggressively do not enjoy this style of music at the moment, so I'm going to give it a really low score to mark it as last place.

...Again, sorry. Perhaps I'll be more charitable by the Final Score.

[Final Reaction: Well, I do regret giving this song a score saying that I hate it, which is definitely too strong. I still rather dislike it though; I'm not going to say it's impossible to find a yodeling song I enjoy, but this isn't it and my memories of this specific era are best left untouched. I will say I appreciate the novelty and the gamble on something really unexpected, but it didn't pay off for me.]

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

EDIT: Per usual, the remaining nominations section is never accurate and we've had our first error (now corrected). I really thought I was going to make it through at least the bottom ten this year...
