Being the top rated Mandarin Pop song on Rateyourmusic, I expected to be a bit more "elite", but this is surprisingly boppy! "See you later", indeed. (Grade: B+ and pending...)

Double Review: UP 12ISING – “Next Song” and “First Song”
A new amateur artist asked me for feedback, how could I say no? Next Song: It’s an okay song… usual four chord progression, beat build up that doesn’t really go anywhere… Apparently The artist told me he didn't know what four chord progression was and how it worked, yet he still managed to show off … Continue reading Double Review: UP 12ISING – “Next Song” and “First Song”
David Guetta – I’m good
Cliche, bland, and having nothing interesting, you are definitely no good. Start from 70, -20 points for sampling the song, -20 points for being David (I've seen you do better, Mr. Guetta). 30/100.
When You’re Alone · Nathalie Ezmeralda
A very Dua Lipa approach, yet incredibly obscure in comparison, Nathalie competes against Isador's song Jungle fiercely for the best song I've heard under 50,000 youtube views.
“Stalker’s Tango – Autoheart” female ver. RafScrap
I still have no idea why This song is the most viewed post on my site, or if anyone actually reads it. Here's a review on the female version.

Credits to Red Emissary of Darkness … Continue reading “Stalker’s Tango – Autoheart” female ver. RafScrap

The song had troubled me for quite a bit, it had some nice strings and an excellent solo, not to mention a skin-chilling final line. However, it feels a little childish given the 'when voices say behave, we say instead, be brave', not to mention the final chorus giving up the message and ending up … Continue reading Hololive – Non-fiction
CBAT – Hudson Mohawke
I just heard of this today. Some weird remix of door creaking been gone viral as a guy claims he had sex for years to a song like this. Probably meant for comedy. The beginning-middle transition does remind me a bit of "sissy that walk", except this chorus is even more insufferable. Hah. (1/100).
Yeat – out of my way
yes get out of my way. Your autotune doesn’t impress me… (60/100
Calvin Harris – Feel So Close
I saw this in a tik tok regarding 10 songs that almost no one dislikes, included among Bohemian Rhapsody and Crazy by Gnarls Barkley. If Bohemian wasn't there, I wouldn't be so disparaging towards this song. But when I listened to it, it had the same problems with modern pop, it's relatively repetitive and doesn't … Continue reading Calvin Harris – Feel So Close
yumeutsutsu – Lamp
Sadly, this seems like an attempt at Japanese crosses (Jose Gonzales) that is just too soft to break the language barrier. (C-)
