Is worth at least a point and a half on its own. And now I'm going to go off topic and do a night of listening to whatever I want, to try to recalibrate my opinions a bit. Will probably hit some songs from both ranking topics, as well as whatever I feel like clicking at the time. 1.Pac-Land Main Theme: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VRbtaz51ALE Current Score: I don't know. Probably a 7, though I am loathe to admit it. Write-Up: It's getting worse. I now hear this theme whenever I click this topic. It has burrowed into my brain and consumed everything. I actually hated Pac-Land for most of my life. Had a slightly bad experience with the arcade machine early in my youth... was very briefly at an out of town arcade and got to pick one game to play for a few minutes. I was drawn to Pac-Land because OMG PAC-MAN HAS ARMS & LEGS which was apparently mind-blowing at the time. I had no idea what I was doing (it has an unconvential control scheme) and died quite quickly. I hadn't noticed that arcade had a deluxe sit-down version of the original Star Wars arcade game... sure it was my fault for not carefully examining everything in the arcade before choosing (I wasn't particularly bright), but I always blamed it on Pac-Land. I never saw a Deluxe Star Wars Arcade Game ever again. Le sigh. Le boo hoo. 2.David Benoit - Spare Time: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KlpjC8CKG40 Score: 4. Original Write-Up: Spare Time (David Benoit): Do you want an instrumental version of one of the themes from "Garfield Gets a Life"? Was there ever anyone who watched that special, heard this song, and said "yes, I want more of this, but jazzier and without the lyrics!"? I still have no idea why this track exists. It's alright. It wants to be slightly jazzy background music and it is. There's no high points, or low points, it just...exists on the Garfield Jazz Album as random background music. 3.Spider-Man: The Animated Series (Genesis) - Theme: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jni4zd9Sdgc Current Score: Somewhere between 1 & 6. Write-Up: I absolute despised this song for many years. It was the type of song I would only play whenever I wanted to suffer or needed to remind myself of what terrible music sounded like. But after so, so long (the game came out in 95), I've developed an almost fondness for the track? Like... I've been making fun of this song for so, so very long that it's almost painful vocal samples are rather charming. You know what, let's go with that 6, I actually do like this song tonight. 4.kaneel - Aspiration: https://kaneel.bandcamp.com/track/aspiration Current Score: 6 Original Write-Up: I think I'll give best song on the album to "Aspiration". ...I don't know why, honestly. Listened to it three times tonight, so I can safely say I like it? So long as there are absolutely no follow up questions or expectations of explanations. Not a bad song, but I'm really not sure why I was into that night. I still have nothing in particular to say about it. 5.+Tek - Acid Pickle Rick: www.youtube.com/watch?v=6EViShDNL5M Original Score: 8 Current Score: 10 Writeup: It's catchy, funny, and one of the songs from the main ranking topic that I've gone back to the most often. That it only came in 71st place is a travesty. While it would never win, it could have at least stood as the lowest ranked score to get a 10--acting as a sort of gatekeeper to true greatness. 6.Paramore - Fake Happy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w8vsuOXZBXc Current Score: Possibly a low 10, like Acid Pickle Rick. ...well that's a pair of songs, alright. Writeup: Coming in at 63rd place (out of 200 songs) in my first ranking topic, this is another of the biggest ranking regrets. I still don't have much to say about the song itself, but that was an abysmal placement. 7.Keith Power - We All Lift Together: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SwSB1x26ExM Current Score: 5.1 Original Writeup: Every time I see how high up on the list this song is, I have to ask myself if I really want a prison work song from a game I've never heard of to be ranked above so many songs I've praised. Then I listen to it and remember that yeah, I really do want it up here. [FINAL NOTES: Even on the fourth trip through all the songs, I still look at this song and feel "that song wasn't that good" until I click the video again. It's weird.] Coming in at 61st place, it's something I feel I ranked too highly. Apparently I was really into the song in late 2018, but it does nothing for me now. continued for some reason --- MUGEN AI Tournament, open to everyone. participants needed: https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/boards/403-random-insanity/78594355 <cite>Raetsel_Lapin posted [p:937672236] in Raetsel co...
