#713: The Field - Its Up There (9:20):

Nominator: rwlh [20/24 Remaining]

Initial Score: 56.74
Revised Score: 56.74
Final Score: 52.47

(First Reaction: Of all the instrumental songs I don't understand, this one is the most instrumentaliest.)

!It's nice, but I don't have any really strong reactions to it... I like it, but not "like like" it, I think.

[Final Thoughts: The song does have some of the deep, low tones that I always love, but I'm not really vibing to this tonight. It feels like... like a subdued dance club or something? I don't know what I'm feeling, or why I never felt it before, but it's... still something I generally have a vague like for, but is definitely a few points off from the first two listens.]

#712: HANABIE. - Invisible wall (3:35):

Nominator: Murphiroth [24*/32 Remaining]

Initial Score: 54.00
Revised Score: 52.80
Final Score: 52.49

(First Reaction: I rather wish I could find some trace of the lyrics to this song as I suspect it probably has some lyrics that I'd be interested in, but there's no way to be sure. Either way, this has the highest percentage of clean vocals thus far and it has an intriguing sound to it, so I kinda like it.)

The interview with the band doesn't help a lot... this song was written by one of the band when she was in high school, it wasn't changed much from the original version and retains a "high school vibe", there are quite a few English lyrics even though they do not speak English, and it has something to do with facing difficulties.

...well, I guess that's a fair amount of information. I suppose I'm not as into this song on a second listen because while it's fairly tame for the group, it's still more metal and intense than I really want it to be... lot of drumming and what not. i still kinda enjoy the clear verses, but I'm not finding any moments that I want to draw attention to or really focus on.

[Final Thoughts: More drumming than I'd like, but the clean vocals are a welcome addition.]
