Feels like it belongs in the ending scene of an anime or an artsy game, trying to mix classic melodrama with more modern music.

Here, I've bolded people with a full set of 20 (or 26, in JB's case), and italicized people with 5 or less noms. Nobody has managed to escape this tier unscathed... with the exception of me, of course. For the record, I nominated a song that I had never heard before (and which didn't exist until after the contest started). The pace is going to slow down from here on out. I'll be doing 10 songs/day for a while, with generally more detailed (but not necessarily more useful writeups). I'm fairly confident about the placement of these songs, though it isn't until we get to 8+ Personal scores that I've actually made a hard, comparative ranking of them all.

438. Fallout 3 - Butcher Pete
Nominator: @Johnbobb 7.5 (7.5/0) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8E_XvcWawUM OHHHHHHHHHH PETE! HE LOVES THAT MEAT! 438. Suikoden II - Neclord Battle Nominator: @scarletspeed7 7.5 (7.5/0) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fq2vAaU-Kng Good Mortal Kombat intro. It's certainly gothic. This isn't anything *too* special. I think it has a weakness in being a little predictable and generic ("generic" in a more literal sense, in that it sticks to its genre pretty straightforwardly). No individual aspect really excels; it's all-around solid, jack-of-all-trades. I've totally heard it somewhere before. --- Life before death, strength before weakness, journey before destination ...

438. Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Kai - You
Nominator: @pyresword 7.5 (7.5/0) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O_DvJwakV4I sadvnpiano.mp3. Feels very familiar. It's Hope but better. It's bugging me that I can't place this. Does it touch me because I've heard it before and I'm implicitly making a connection to that, or have I not heard it and the melody is simple and powerful enough to get to me even without context? I'm kind of rating it in the average of the two scenarios. 438.

It shouldn't be terribly surprising that this isn't the kind of prettiness I tend to adore in music.

Sonic Tetris - Marble Zone Nominator: Collen 7.5 (7.5/0) https://youtu.be/UDLem3hes18 Cool melody. I dunno what else to say just listen to it I think you'll get what I mean :^))))))) oh my god two marble songs!! --- Life before death, strength before weakness, journey before destination ...

438. Ragnarok Online - Welcome Mr Huang
Nominator: @MargaretAnnMid 7.5 (7.5/0) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pm_lsSaHCHQ "by SoundTeMP" literally in the video description. Check your fucking composers. This sounds nothing like Yoko Kanno (and she wasn't even on this game). I see why Mycro gets so upset about this kind of thing. It's intensely frustrating 438. Toy Story 2: Buzz Lightyear to the Rescue - Al's Penthouse Nominator: @Dragon66116 7.5 (7.5/0) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wd7LjYksLDo Decent if not fantastic western piece. Could see it as a lesser, largely-forgotten song in a Morricone soundtrack 438. Final Fantasy X - Challenge Nominator: Thomas 7.5 (7.5/0) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ySgAB9cIyOU I've always thought the intro was sick but it doesn't really go anywhere, unfortunately. If it did evolve better, it'd to be a top FFX song. Man, rip not-potato-quality FFX uplaods 438. Fallout 4 - Main Theme Nominator: Thomas 7.5 (7.5/0) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kzvZE4BY0hY I like how it's strangely hopeful at the very beginning before transitioning into the Fallout motif. This seems like it should be the ending theme of Marvel's Fallout, not the intro to the proper 3D Fallout game with the most hackneyed, ill-constructed story. I suppose this gets to be the best Fallout theme, as it makes me *think* that the story would actually be good, and seeing as they're not all that different, the melancholic piano of this beats the vaguely western feel of NV --- Life before death, strength before weakness, journey before destination ...

438. Endless Legend - War of the Sundered (Gravity Well Remix)
Nominator: @kaonashi 7.5 (7.5/0) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JdWk0UprQvk Kind of boring generic choir save for that weird synth in the background which manages to give it some character. I guess it "feels" like a kaonashi nom, so there's something in there giving it personality. I like it more than I thought I would considering how bland it is in general. The geometric waves about two and a half minute in are a nice touch in this regard. That section on is definitely the best portion of the song. ahhhhh ah ahhhhh 438. Witcher 3 - Hunt or Be Hunted Nominator: Rob 7.5 (7.5/0) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Ccpv3mz4HI There's something about the style of the soundtrack that makes even the less spectacular songs like this stand out... wait, this is just Ezio's Family what the FUCK --- Life before death, strength before weakness, journey before destination ...

Yakuza - Funk Goes On Nominator: Rufus 7.5 (7.5/0) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_1uNUhIgC2g can you just like give me the english names thanks.

438. RuneScape - Scape Main
Nominator: @handsomeboy2012 7.5 (7.5/0) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HL8oQw0nm0M I'm sure this song shaped the childhood of many people. It's got a strong "start of the adventure" vibe without being too cliched or overdone, and likely really really excited all of those proto-zoomer kids. The aforementioned narm helps a lot in this regard. It gets points for this, even if I don't love the song itself 438. The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages - Crown Dungeon Nominator: jangler 7.5 (7.5/0) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hGMMR_ySoT8 'this has got to be a jangler nom' - me. 'ok we're really in jangler territory now' - me two years later. Some things never change --- Life before death, strength before weakness, journey before destination ... Copied to Clipboard!

438. Golden Sun - Venus Lighthouse
Nominator: @OrangeCrush980 7.5 (7.5/0) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q5d1rrbNo3o Solid, but I'm not infatuated with this, as popular as it may be 438. Atelier Ayesha - Mystic Pendulum Nominator: @OrangeCrush980 7.5 (7.5/0) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hhtJyuXHKPc Ayesha is one of my absolute favorite soundtracks, yet I don't know if I've ever voted MARIA in VGMC. The vocal themes don't do it for me. They lack what makes Ayesha so cool for me. Still, I find some pretty enjoyable. I'll listen to Hanashirube when loading the game on occasion. I guess this is second behind Stargazer. By the way, "Twilight Hour" is just the album that they released the vocal songs on. It's still just from Atelier Ayesha --- Life before death, strength before weakness, journey before destination ... Copied to Clipboard!

438. Splatoon 2 - Fly Octo Fly
Nominator: @-hotdogturtle-- 7.5 (7.5/0) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h1c6JlGiRVg smoke on the water. I got curious earlier today, and checked to see what playlists people had my PSO2 songs on. One, "1 list of good vgm", had Splatoon 2 next to Custom Robo and PSO. I think my head would explode if I went from Funky Radio to Panic Cube to this to Tricktrack part 1. Anyway, this is probably the best Slapton song I got (you'll know if this is case better than I do now), which is to say that it's fairly good despite basically everything about it 438. Super Mario Land - Birabuto Kingdom Nominator: rwlhs friend 7.5 (7.5/0) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x-QWBWKt3no HEY IT'S THAT SONG!

438. Star Fox - Fortuna
Nominator: rwlhs friend 7.5 (7.5/0) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9JXJlj_0dkg Neat, not anything special. Gokinjo-esque instruments, which makes this worse because it is clearly not Gokinjo and has no right to aspire to such greatness. 438. Chroma Squad - The Groove of Justice Nominator: Place 7.5 (7.5/0) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PeORTSitYtg I can't say I'm really grooving *that* much. "It's time to save the day" song.

438. LSD: Dream Emulator - Come On And (Hakushi Hasegawa Mix)
Nominator: @Place 7.5 (7.5/0) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WAXbF83HH9A Slam! Doesn't do a lot for me... it's *almost* there. Some parts are really cool! This kind of thing needs something to get me into it, otherwise it's kind of there. Without that special sauce, it doesn't come together enough for me to rate it particularly highly. 383. Ys: The Oath in Felghana - The Strongest Foe Nominator: @FL81 7.6 (7.6/0) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4pzcqZTVfDI Not my favorite Ys tune. This kind of rock was never why I gravitated towards Falcom music, and though I suppose it has a higher ceiling than Cold Steel-esque battle themes, it's still nothing overly remarkable. Still a good jam to listen to 7.6! --- Life before death, strength before weakness, journey before destination ... Copied to Clipboard!

Nominator: @RyoCaliente 7.6 (7.6/0) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Aud5JNaG1BM Goes hard in the right ways, or, at least in enough of the right ways for me to like this. A lot of fast chiptunes bore me (as well as midtempo chiptunes... and slow chiptunes......).

383. Super Mario 3D World - World Bowser
Nominator: Neotelenta 7.6 (7.6/0) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EjkGGMxyxiA Are you gonna be my girl? I prefer songs like this to prioritize energy (like Rhythm Thief music) over trying to convey a personality. I use the latter phrase a bit as an epithet, like it's something cheap and unearned, telling over showing. Kind of like the song is jumping and waving its arms, insisting that it has personality, instead of letting that arise naturally for the song. I don't expect this to make any sense. So it goes. Bongos 383. Europa Universalis IV - Ride Forth Victoriously Nominator: @handsomeboy2012 7.6 (7.6/0) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ycl0vpbMfWw I know it fits perfectly in the context of the song, but it's still kind of weird hearing that chanting in this kind of western song. It's even weirder when you realize that they belong in this kind of song much more than they belong in JRPG final boss themes --- Life before death, strength before weakness, journey before destination ...
