???: I.......S | [da.data...aa]8 (1:16)
https://ikts.bandcamp.com/track/da-data-aa-8
Nominator: Kopazzynth [4 songs remaining]

Initial Score: 60.11
Final Score: 60.79 [Upgraded to 62.00]

(First Reaction: I have no idea how to put this. I don't like this, but I like it. The notes are like a jackhammer, monotonous and rattling in my skull. I don't like it, but somehow, I like the song even though it consists entirely of things I don't like being done in ways that I don't think I like. I don't get how this works or why I'm giving it a good score, but I apparently am, and I'm truly baffled by this outcome.)

I really don't know why I like this. I don't even know how I like this. But not only do I apparently like this, I seem to like it enough to give it a few extra a fractions of a point. I'm just as confused now as I was when I heard it the first time.

[Later: An inexplicable song that continues improving with each listen, even as I find it impossible to identify what I'm enjoying about it at all. Somehow this track works even though it feels like it really shouldn't and I fear that I'll never understand why, no matter how many times I listen to it.]

holy crap this song is incredible

I wouldn't normally participate in a discussion about worst music since I get irritated with a lot of the discourse around it, but I have to nominate something nobody else has said:

The Shaggs - Philosophy of the World
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=thHcvTDGWvg&list

From Wikipedia:
The Shaggs were formed in 1965 by the teenage sisters Dorothy, Betty and Helen Wiggin. Though they had no interest in becoming musicians, they were forced to write, rehearse and record an album by their father, who believed that his mother had predicted their rise to fame.[1] They composed bizarre songs with untuned guitars, erratic time signatures, disconnected rhythms, wandering melodies and rudimentary lyrics about pets and families.[2] After their album, Philosophy of the World, was reissued in 1980, Rolling Stone suggested that it was the worst album ever recorded.[3] In 2022, Vice wrote that it was the "best worst album of all time".[4] It developed a cult following,[5] with fans including Frank Zappa and Kurt Cobain.[1][6]

It's simultaneously the worst album ever recorded and an avant-garde masterpiece. I'd say it absolutely qualifies for this.

One-off Simpsons characters would be basically the same thing but much less confusing. (Unless you just hate Hank "Scorpion" that much.)

That works too! I was mostly trying to differentiate between somebody like Sideshow Bob or even Krusty's father compared to a one-time role. But yes, your way of phrasing is much better.

don't worry about it, I was really excited for this one and I thought it would be super competitive. I had really high expectations. great nom, disappointing results

Aww thanks. Here's another nomination I thought of yesterday but forgot to post:

  • Simpsons one-off guest stars (aka guest stars who only appeared in one episode. So Hank Scorpion wouldn't qualify because Albert Brooks has been in one other episodes. You could change this if you really wanted but I think it makes the Rushmore less competitive because then we all pick Kelsey Grammer lol)

  • Music videos (could break this down by decade)
  • I don't care about sports but maybe NFL Teams or NBA Teams or something?
  • Funny games

Aurora's Theme
Zero Gravity Area
Stage 3 - Voile, the Magic Library

Aurora's Theme is lovely.

I'm soooo happy Zero Gravity Area got in. It's one of my all-time favorites.

Voile, the Magic Library has amazing percussion which automatically puts it above many other songs by default. The rest of it is cool too.

Pretty solid day for me - the only song I didn't really care for is Redeem the Future. I liked everything else to some degree.

Mutants over Broadway!
Moiety Theme
Round

Mutants over Broadway is so much fun. Moiety is great too; I really enjoy a lot of the more ambient picks this year. Round is nice and sprightly indie game music, which I'm not always in the mood for but I definitely am today. Somebody described it as "warm" which I think is a great descriptor.

I have very clear preferences today so I'll be sad if any of them go down.

My criteria for today was they all had to be known at least on some level for teaching and were very good at it.

Professor X (X-Men)
Master Roshi (Dragon Ball)

Ms. Frizzle is a great pick, I wouldn't have thought of her.

(First Reaction: Bad, but in an endearing way. It's clear that no one involved in this has any idea what they're doing & their complete lack of musical talent has resulted in something so staggeringly avant-garde that it's almost enjoyable. I feel like trying to analyze the song at all would be missing the point. It's an e-x-p-e-r-i-e-n-c-e. Not a good one, but not entirely a bad one either.)

This description is on point (to me at least).
