68. VILLAIN Source: K/DA and League of Legends Villain: Evelynn Nominator: CoolCly (1 left) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xoWxv2yZXLQ Villainy: 5 Characterization: 4 Melody: 5 Total: 14/30 "Is it really a surprise if I'm playing with your mind? / And I treat you like a prize then I throw you to the side?" Well this easily wins the prize for most on-the-nose title for a villain song. It's pretty solid overall, with an enjoyable beat. My main issue with it musically is largely that it feels pretty repetitive, like I keep waiting for it to build up to something that it never quite hits. The vocals are good, the mixing is great. I'm not a huge fan of the pre-chorus, but the chorus is pretty catchy. It's a little tough to get a solid idea of the implications of the song though. Like the line "fill you full of dread 'til you go pow," is this suggesting that the person being sung to is dying? Other lines suggest, putting a price on their head, or manipulating them through seduction or some type of control, and still others are just "make you cry." It's all just a little too vague. Like Evelynn is at the very least cruel and the type to use someone, but there's no real context for the song (unlike something sung in the context of a specific scene) so it's hard to really get much of an idea of the specifics. Just vibes. --- Khal Kirby, warlord of the Super Star Khalasar PSN/Steam: CheddarBBQ https://goo.gl/Diw2hs ... Copied to Clipboard! |
