Very challenging and experimental. It uses rap combined with attempt with auto tune and strange feeling overall. You certainly can't apply my classic "four rap songs argument", yet... it slides out of my taste, considering the amount of reviews and relatively high rating on RateYour Music -- one of the top rated Chinese singles of … Continue reading Alice Longyu Gao, Alice Glass – Legend

Jikky Bytt – Cyber Enhanced World
challenging and strange, Jikky delivers a curious electronic sound that has a very fitting title. (C-)
李宇春 (Li Yuchun) – Give Me Five
I could've sworn I reviewed this song before. No idea where I heard this super obscure song, but I enjoy the Mexican mix up with English and Chinese. Despite the title's request, it's far from being worthy for me to Give Him Five. I also find it funny that the beginning and intermezzo had a … Continue reading 李宇春 (Li Yuchun) – Give Me Five
Jikky Bytt – Prologue [Spectacle Album]
the small contained theme is intriguing, and has quite some potential. I told the creator the album and their other songs had a feeling similar to Baba is You. Though maybe that's me. (C?)
Klaus Badelt – He’s a Pirate
With a powerful swashbuckling theme, the song fits the theme very well and is remarkably unique and catchy. Fantastic! (100/100)
Shi Shang Zhi You Mama Hao – Carl Doy
I could have sworn this was a traditional type song, but I see it's actually children's lullaby. Intriguing. A nice interpretation over here. (B)
Sting – What Could Have Been
it's not his best song, but Ray Chen helps greatly with his beautiful violin playing, and the result is quite emotional in the context of the show. Not too shabby... though we know in his prime, *what could have been*. (B-)
TWRP – Starlight Brigade
the chorus is weaker than what I usually like, hence why this is out of my favorites list, but the animation is great and the story is admirable. (C)
Baby Keem – lost souls
The line of "tasteful auto tune" very thin, and I can't really tell what this song is meant to convey especially with the sexual connotation between verses. Hm.... needs more judgement. (C?)
OneRepublic – Sunshine
the song has little bit of sunshine, but it's just too predictable. Not great. (D-)
