Too late!

A note, since it relates to earlier discussions. This was a batch of five, planned as a batch of five, with a #40 planned since, like, 10am. Then write-ups began and... #40 isn't appearing until I re-evaluate some more. Everything else? I'm... okay. I will miss them in rotation. But that's the fun of ranking songs. It never goes as planned.

#40. Canto Della Terra
Artist: Andrea Bocelli
Nominator: paulg235 (1/5)
Time: 3:59
Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fvSZdBwIR6E
Initial Rankings: Batch 3 - 5/15 (C+) & Rubric 8
Weighted Rankings: Violet 3/16

What a beautiful voice. Absolutely gorgeous, and the strings in the background are lovely. Even with the big chorus coming in and sweeping me away, I... I have other songs ahead of this. Absolutely beautiful.

20th Place. paulg235
#121. "Atlas Earth Ad Song"
#104. SilvaGunner, "Fight Against an Armed Boss (In-Game Version)"
#70. Propaganda, "The Murder of Love"
#45. Lord of the Lost, "Cha Cha Cha"
#40. Andrea Bocelli, "Canto Della Terra"
Average Score: 76
Total Score: 380

Definitely some contentious and confusing selections. "Atlas Earth" burns in fire. SilvaGunner's song bounced about for a while. "The Murder of Love" pled for mercy sooner than I expected, but Lord of the Lost Cha Cha'd into my heart. It was some weird, wild stuff, and I appreciate the experiences.

#39. Bachelorette (Family Tree Version)

Initial Rankings: Batch 6 - 3/15 (A-) & Rubric 6

The first comment says it best, "I still maintain my opinion from the first time I heard this song decades ago, this is the opening theme of a James Bond movie yet to be made." [AndrewMacLaine]. That's one of the things that's kept it high in mind; how much it sounds and feels like something that plays with Bond on-screen. I can picture Brosnan perfectly.

I confess even after listening many times and reading the lyrics, they still confuzzle me quite a bit. But it's real good sounding, innit?

Hey!

It's a slow start-up, and there was a time early on where I got this and "Baby, Don't You Do It" confused so this almost got eliminated way earlier. I'm really, really glad I didn't make that mistake. This is excellent. Again, I don't know much about the characters or concept of the album, but it grew on me greatly!
