@Fluttershy_Pony ; remember to watch the cat video at some point, please.

Three songs for now. As usual, I'm hoping to get through 10 this morning, but we'll see what winds up happening:

========================

#578: Pascal Michael Stiefel - Train Rush (4:57):
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wwGnXPpbu4A

Nominator: DoctorJimmy [16/24 Remaining]

Initial Score: I want to give it a nonsensical value like "60.00-10p", but for formatting reasons, I guess I'll go with a traditional value like "59.99999"
Revised Score: 52.96
Final Score: 57.29

(First Reaction: Not one of my typical musical styles, but it's reasonably fun and energetic.)

!I'm apparently less in the mood for this type of swing music than I was originally. It's not bad or anything, but not quite a genre that I'm often into.

[Final Thoughts: Somewhere between the Initial Score and Revised Score feels accurate. This is a fairly nifty example of a style I don't listen to often, but it's a bit further from the 60 point tier than the original score implied. Let's go with something in the 57 point range--firmly in the "I kinda like this" zone.]

#577: Grimes - Artangels (4:07):
https://open.spotify.com/track/6kh5fj610DhNF1e02og1PL?si=401053984c7343ef

Nominator: Player_0 [20/33 Remaining]

Initial Score: 66.60 [upgraded to 73.00]
Revised Score: 54.12
Final Score: 57.30

(First Reaction: Ooh, now this is a good song.

*leaves the writeup at that, in spite of the fact that Future Raetsel is going to complain about the fact that she didn't even try to type anything*

[The score was upgraded for reasons that are equally not explained.])

!I'm not upset about leaving the writeup at nothing, I leave lot of writeups at nothing, but I am disappointed that there's no indication as to what we liked about this? Or why it jumped up a tier? Because I kinda like the song tonight, but I legitimately have no idea how it rose to the "really liked" tier to even guess why it's not working too well for me tonight.

[Final Thoughts: I guess some aspect of me really, really likes this... but I don't know which one or why. I kinda like it? It's nice, I suppose.]

#576: Madcon - Beggin' (3:36):
https://youtu.be/go8BvcqnZSE

Nominator: Mega_Mana [25/38 Remaining]

Initial Score: 66.92
Revised Score: 60.00
FInal Score: 57.33

(First Reaction: Third verse is... better than good, but not quite great; Lyrics about being an empty shell and broken are pretty much always welcome. None of the other verses or choruses come close to the quality of the third, but they're at least good or good enough. I liked this.)

!A catchy chorus and one good verse. Clearly in the "I like this tier", but I think it's more at the start of the tier than the at the higher-end of it.

[Final Thoughts; For some unknown reason when I saw the song title this time, I was expecting some sort of Beggin' Strips commercial:

Unfortunately, there is no Beggin' Strips theme song for anyone to have nominated. Le sigh.

This song has some good lyrics & a very catchy hook for its chorus, but I'm not clicking with it that much tonight, I'm afraid.]
