impressively diverse singing and rhyming variety, this song does more than merely "almost" touch me. Definitely a potential favorite from Discovery weekly. 88/100

Reversible Campaign – Deco*27
This is a review of Roux's cover, as I am not a big fan of vocaloid. Original Review: Though I have found this song through *certain research* (cough cough), the chorus is very catchy and the melody is very well sung. Rachie's cover feels a bit too fast on the English syllables, though. Good potential. … Continue reading Reversible Campaign – Deco*27
Infected Mushroom – Heavyweight
With a very exotic feel and hard drop beats, the song evolves incredibly well and provides a solid rock song. The beginning hints towards the build up at three minutes, and the electronic theme is fantastic. The ending is especially haunting and powerful. The only reason this isn't 100 is that it just doesn't feel … Continue reading Infected Mushroom – Heavyweight
Harry Styles – Watermelon Sugar
Not sure what this song is about, but it's got style and melody. Not bad. "Watermelon sugar high", indeed. 88/100 (B+) Future Edit: Oh, it's about meeting someone, with potential interpretation about sexual context. Pretty standard stuff. Doesn't affect my rating. --11/4/2020
MLP – This Day Aria
The drastic contrasts between malicious march and ballad is fantastically well done. I just wish the song was longer. Original rating: 99 2021 rating: I'll admit, the brutal loss of this song on Rate Your Music (last place, approximate grade C+/B-) does bring a new idea to the song, and without the context, This Day … Continue reading MLP – This Day Aria
Rever Mieux – Daniel Belanger
not quite as cool as the other song I reviewed from him, but Rever goes along swimmingly. 71/100
Kimiro Iro Utsuri
It contains the famous motif variation from U.N. Was Her, but the rest of the song is very different and sparkles in its own way. Not bad, not bad at all. High potential. What convinced me to ultimately add this song were the unique translated lyrics, especially with imagery of "twilight sky with red", "red … Continue reading Kimiro Iro Utsuri
Mr. Tambourine Man – The Byrds
Despite the other 22 people averaging to over 4/5, I do not think the song is anything special. It is mediocre. 60/100
The Heart of Rock & Roll – Huey Lewis and the News
Decently solid, if standard rock and roll. But compared to the other 95's, it's very hard to say if the nicely composed sax and the melody add up enough to defeat Death of a Bachelor. 97/100
Stephen Puth – Watching You Walk Away
Being in the shadow of his brother, Charlie Puth, his songs provide a remarkably fresh take on pop music and is a great contrast to his style. 88/100
