Wasn't the biggest fan of the intro, but it was a pretty interesting song. Nothing I'm too crazy about it, but I have to admit that it's very well put together and was an enjoyable enough listen. Kinda catchy the more I think about it. 7/10

Always nice to see some Eurovision content in the thread :) I typically wait 'til the final before watching any of the acts so I'd not seen this before - it has the appropriate mix of fun pop and whimsical staging that serves well on the night. I'll give it 7/10




I was reminded earlier of a track I haven't heard in a fair while - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=adRNP-IqBVc
Daughter nation of The Unified Provinces of Rhanukhan, originally created during the course of roleplay events back in 2008. The accounts relating to it in Rhanukhan's own factbooks are deliberately vague as the people of Rhanukhan are unaware of many details regarding the island. As such I've established it as a separate nation in order to provide greater insight through its own factbooks.

This is just my opinion, but when you slow down an instrumental score (keep in mind, instrumental scores are uncool enough in nature) all bets are off. Amplified for dramatic effect, I know, but it sort of sounds like shades of a mainstream pop/rock song in minor key getting slowed down for dramatic effect in a movie trailer; something like a live action remake of the Princess and the Frog or Mad Max 4. 6/10

I guess I should have expected as much. Personally, I don't often listen to classical music because I'm not a nerd but it's not often I don't enjoy it when I do. Pretty solid waltz, and a pretty enjoyable song. 8/10

We making it out of Kamino with this one boys! In all seriousness, this is a great version of a modern classic. Can't give it lower than a 9/10 out of fear that I will be assassinated by the clone troopers under my command.

Decent, 7/10 the synth is funky and makes me feel funny, almost as if I can feel the fingers on the keyboard that’s playing the notes.

Ok so I’m gonna do 2 cus both if mine are really short, but imma gonna add context for both of them so to enhance the vibes

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=tcxrGOaY6 ... QgZGVhdGgg

Context: The is the opening song of the final episode of “Star wars: The clone wars” Normally in the intro the logo is yellow and is playing an upbeat version of the Star Wars main theme. Now the logo is blood red and is playing this song.

There's too much Star Wars content to keep up with properly these days, so this show is a part of the universe I have only a passing familiarity with. The music is in keeping with the soundtrack of the main movies to the extent that it sounds little different in style to that which tends to accompany any main character death. Should I mark it up for the appropriateness or down for the unoriginality? *didn't initially score this and returned after listening to the other piece* I've actually pretty much forgotten what it sounded like already - not the highest praise - 6/10

I've never so much as heard of the show (actually, thinking about it, I may have seen it mentioned on this very forum, but I had no idea if it was a show or game or what) so you had little to spoil :P It has a pleasant melody and a good singer. 8/10
