And were... out of the hatred zone apparently!

...There were other songs set to be eliminated that tier, but theyre moving up too, so...

Now entering the Well, I dont hate it tier

In which you could just copy/paste that quoted line as the Final Thought for each song. Im not sure how often I actually say that, but Im sure Ill use that phrase far more often than I should.

EDIT: Accidentally left out that opening paragraph above when copying. Has been edited back in now.

588: TOOL - STINKFIST:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6zpvlMp04D0&list=OLAK5uy_k_Z0-DYw0_cGPvZm6icNUGbefRT4wktdY&index=1

Nominator: Steiner (25/26)
Source: Aenima (14/15)

Initial Score: 0.00 [#578]
Revised Score: 11.24 [#584]
Final Score: 10.42 [#588]

(First Thoughts: Well, someone really wants to compete for last place.

...honestly its not the worst song ever, but the choice of metaphor isnt doing it any favors and I hate the interlude so much. I actively dread listening to the rest of the album after hearing this.

Something has gone seriously wrong when this song not only isnt in last place, its probably not even in the bottom 12.)

PROTIP: If you cant say the name of a song on television because its too explicit, dont waste your time telling me to listen to it.

[Final Thoughts: Well, I dont hate it... other than that interlude part in the middle. And the title. And most of the lyrics. Still, its definitely a tier above quite a few other songs, in spite of everything.]

587: PAUL DUKAS - THE SORCERERS APPRENTICE:

Nominator: @GavsEvans123 (13/15)

Initial Score: 22.77 [#553]
Revised Score: 14.99 [#581]
Final Score: 10.60 [#587]

(First Thoughts: Ah, very long orchestral music, my old nemesis. We meet again. I still dont like you.)

Ive never been a fan of Fantasia or even been capable of seeing the appeal. My opinion on classical music has mellowed a bit, but this kind of very traditional orchestra music is always a risky pick. Adding a cartoon mouse doesnt exactly change that youre still making me listen to music I dont want to be listening to.

(And this video doesnt even have Mickey Mouse which was really the only nice thing I could say about Fantasia)

I can at least say the orchestral version is a thousand times better than the miserable version from the Genesis Fantasia game. Just absolutely atrocious music in that game; terrible controls and gameplay too, just a bad game.

...at least Fantasia gave some decent inspiration to Kingdom Hearts? Though I think that may have been my least favorite stage in Birth by Sleep, so even thats debatable.

[Final Thoughts: Genesis Sorcerers Apprentice:

IT BURNS.

Back to the actual song: Its just not my genre. There are always exceptions to such things, stuff I like even when its supposed to be something I wouldnt, but this isnt an exception. Ive toned down my rhetoric enough that I dont hate this song, but its not something Id ever choose to listen to.]
