It is impressive that he can do that with his voice live.

Nominator: Bane [33/38 Remaining]

(First Reaction: Comments later. Probably. Maybe. It's not inconceivable that at least one sentence about this song will be written at some point.)

It's nice hearing something else featuring Rebecca Black because she's actually really talented. I also like the repeated Joker references; I can't say he's one of my favorite villains, but *most* versions of the character are fun enough to be enjoyable. That being said, this song does feel a bit redundant... we've got another song from the perspective of random incels and that's still not a topic I care to discuss.

[Final Thoughts: I wish Rebecca Black featured more heavily on the track and I'm not sure this song adds much to the album, but it's not bad. Her performance is as good as always & the "we live in a society" reference is kinda funny.]

[Later: I have remarkably little reaction to the video. The Joker cosplay is kinda nice?]

(First Reaction: Eating souls, om nom nom nom.)

This is a rather interesting idea for a nomination. There are a lot of references to food, but it's not exactly a "food song" and singing about eating someone's soul and Satan could let this pass for a villain song/satanic song (not really, but again, one takes what one can get) & it's performed by someone I like. Would all the positives be enough to allow this song to escape the dreaded 'food song curse'??

Turns out "no, not really.". I mean, I guess I like it more than not and it definitely does things I like, but I think it's definitely on the lower end of songs she's performed and I seem to just functionally tune out whenever anyone mentions food. Even metaphorical food in the context of metaphorically devouring souls. That feels like an interesting data point, even if the score wound up being rather lackluster.

[Final Thoughts: Eh. Food songs. You know how it goes.]

[Later: The chorus is catchy enough that I've considered moving the song up a bit, but... ehh, I think I'd take every remaining song over this one, though it is high quality enough to give me pause.]
