I think eyebooger submitted this artist to me before so guessing him, although I may be misremembering.
Within Temptation sighting itt!
Could be Nicholas.
Edit: …or not
I was Violet
It’s very likely eyebooger
whew, from last place to podium in back to back categories. I am redeemed!
I love me some Within Temptation. I stayed away from metal covers because I had no idea how you‘d react to them.
I am wildly eclectic. Even in genres I hate, I usually find some stuff to love. For example, I am generally negative towards grunge, but I do like Pearl Jam. I prefer music with more than three chords, but I listen to the Ramones.
Yuv is on one of the most devastating tears I have seen in a Walrus.
yeah, it’s pretty amazing. Has he mathematically clinched it yet?
I have a strong guess as to which song Yuv submitted.
Anyways, podium time.
No I dont think so. Like even after today there is 4 reveals left which means mathemagically someone could get 52 points and he could get 4 points.
No. We still have 3(?) categories to go. I don‘t think he has a 37 lead just yet.
This would be one of the suspected Skydiver songs.
In 3rd place, with 11 points:
Siouxsie and the Banshees - Trust In Me
This song comes from the 1987 album of covers Through the Looking Glass. It’s an inspired choice for original material and it’s probably getting some points just for that. The song from The Jungle Book is transformed into the beckoning of a sultry temptress, backed by harp and drums. There’s a certain maturity here for a band that has evolved from punk to post-punk. I like that sort of growth.
When you say you picked the artist, then picked the song, did you really just pick the album or were there other songs not on the album that you considered?
In this category, I really did pick the album, though I had a couple songs in mind off the album I wanted to submit. I love the harp on this one, which I figured would put into the “most unique” area.
Their cover of The Passenger is one of my favorite songs ever.
This is where things get interesting.
I am comfortable with how I have resolved this, but I am curious if something like this has popped up.
I am yet to be revealed, and wondering if it may be a tie for 1st…
