Retracted first post due to not incorporating some songs in tallies.

New update:

#75. Song: Fatalize
Game: Tales of Symphonia
Link:
Nominated by blindhobo13
- Fatalize is alright. I enjoy battling to it and the intro is a lot of fun, but it doesn't keep me interested.
Recently: #75. Even.

#74. Song: The Legend of Zelda 25th Anniversary Medley
Artist: Legend of Zelda 25th Anniversary Symphony
Link:
Nominated by SSBDarren64
- I feel like there have been better medleys. Many much better medleys. This is quite underwhelming for its title.
Recently: #74. Even.

#73. Song: Moonlight Sonata
Artist: Beethoven
Link:
Nominated by Ytterbium_70
&
Song: Raindrop Prelude Op. 28, No. 15
Artist: Chopin
Link:
Nominated by Ytterbium_70
- Better than Moolight Sonata. Still, both didn't move me much.
Recently: #73. Even.

#72. Song: The Flood Plain
OC Remixed Game: F-Zero
Link:
Nominated by FL81
- Serene and quiet and doesn't remind me much of F-Zero, even though it's directly remixing it. I like it. It feels like one of the gray and gloomy days that aren't really at all. The rain's just ended, the greens and reds are vibrant, there's that fresh after-shower smell in the air, there's a light fog that's more cozy and ominous. It's just a beautiful cloudy day.
Recently: #55. Dropped 17 spots.

#71. Song: Nostalgic Salad
Artist: Ace_Killjoy
Link:
Nominated by Ace_Killjoy
- I really enjoyed the beginning of this. The rest of the song was good and I'd enjoy listening to more of it, especially int he background of doing other things because it's really pleasant to listen to, but the beginning thirty seconds just hit me in a sweet spot. Nice work!
Recently: #47. Dropped 24 spots.

#70. Song: Ancient Stories
Artist: Victor Vergara
Link:
Nominated by todbot1
- The song reminds me of The Stand miniseries, particularly when they're setting west in the last half of the book. It just doesn't resonate at all. It just goes on way too long. It's also the biggest drop of the list as it's the highest I reached when recalculating placement. Obviously, this short hiatus for correction was necessary.
Recently: #16. Dropped 54 spots.

#69. Song: In the Sun
Game: Umineko no Naku Koro Ni
Link:
Nominated by Raka_Putra
- I enjoy the ease of the song.
Recently: #32. Dropped 37 spots.

#68. Song: Pachelbel's Ganon
Artist: djpretzel
Link:
Nominated by tazzyboyishere
- It's enjoyable.
Recently: #65. Down 3 spots.

#67. Song: Megatron Must Be Stopped
Artist: Vince DiCola
Link:
Nominated by MycroProcessor
- This was extremely low on first listen, bottom ten easily. But, somehow, it's crawled up quite a bit. I think it's the part that sounds like an old "breaking news" jingle. This just in, Mycro's songs aren't doing as poorly as I thought first listen!
Recently: #72. Up 5 places.

#66. Song: Spoonman
Artist: Soundgarden
Link:
Nominated by TheCodeIsBosco
- Two seconds in, OUR WORLD'S ABOUT TO BREAK. But seriously, it's good, but nothing at all special. This is also one of the hardest to rank because I enjoy it, but not all that much, and it's not really comparable with any other songs nominated. This feels like a good fit for it.
Recently: #64. Down 2 spots.

And to make up for my hiatus, a third update!

#65. Song: Silph Co. Building
Game: Pokemon RBY
Link:
Nominated by mcflubbin
- Oh the nostalgia. Silph Co. just gets tense with the music. A short chiptune, but sweet nonetheless. Mcflubbin's first loss, making Jeff Zero the only one without a song ranked yet!
Recently: #48. Drops 17 spots.

#64. Song: Kalifornia Dreamin'
Artist: Nappy Roots
Link:
Nominated by TheCodeIsBosco
- When it first starts, I wonder why it's not lower. Then it just picks up enough to justify the placement, but it's still weird I had this in the top thirty for a while. "When all the chips are down" doesn't work to punctuate the nice build-up. Despite its low ranking, I do enjoy this song and wish more from it.
Recently: #40. Dropped 24 spots.

#63. Song: To Far Away Times
Game: Chrono Trigger
Link:
Nominated by thundersheep
- It's meh. I like 3:14 until 4:14, but everything else is meh. And I'm certain 3:14-4:14 is another Chrono Trigger song. Also, the last minute drags. On repeated listens, it's gotten much better to the point where I raised it about ten spots higher than I had it. When I couldn't put it over anything I had immediately above it, I realized it was better than some of the stuff about twenty spots higher, but those songs were above the songs above this song. If there's been a delay in posting since the first twenty-five got posted, you can blame this song. And although there's been a lot of moving and shaking (see "Ancient Stories"), "To Far Away Times" doesn't climb much higher.
Recently: #71. Up 8 places.

#62. Song: Emotions (World Map Theme)
Game: Xenogears
Artist: Yasunori Mitsuda
Link:
Nominated by Jeff Zero
- Nice. That really describes it well, don't you think? Nice. It's sweet, but earthy. Adventurous, but nostalgic. It's a song that I'd love to hear while out hiking in the woods on a sunny morning. It would make every ray of sunlight finding it's way to the ground through the canopy more important. It's nice. And with this, everybody is on the big board.
Recently: #61. Drops 1 spot.

#61. Song: Small Two of Pieces
Game: Xenogears
Artist: Yasunori Mitsuda
Link:
Nominated by Jeff Zero
- Jeff Zero goes from 5 to 3 in one update. Love the instrument that pops in at 1:53. I really liked that. It was serene even when the rock guitars came in. It's also one of the biggest drops on this list. It was recently as high as #22, but the only reason it was there was because it was above a few songs that also weren't supposed to be so high up. Another a > b > c > a dilemma. The superior Xenogears song in a Xenogears slaughter.
Recently: #22. Dropped 39 spots.

Recently: #16. Dropped 54 spots.

Yikes.


There were about two or three songs it ranked somewhat favorably over, but those songs are still of high quality and shouldn't be seen for quite some time. As well, I had originally placed it it my second-highest group on first listen, but repeated listens have just hurt it so much. It was nice and refreshing the first time, but after at least two dozen listens, it just doesn't do much and is still completely forgettable. I do not remember this song at all (which is partly why it has so many listens; it'll take me two or three times just to get an even basic grasp of what it contains when swapping around groups of five or more).

Even now that I've just listened to it, again, probably for the eighth time today, I've completely forgotten it. It ended not one minute ago and my brain's already back to both Small of Two Pieces and a song that hasn't shown up yet. Also, Frog's Theme. If I even get a grasp of a certain part, it goes either straight to Small of Two Pieces or Frog's Theme.

It's from listening to both too much, or Avengers not too long before Spoonman. I hear the "DUNNADUNNADUN" in the first second or two, and immediately follow it up with "OUR WORLD'S ABOUT TO BREAK" because it's similar to the same riff Avengers had. It quickly changes, but those were some early impressions initially moving and shaking.

#60. Song: Invincible
Artist: Two Steps from Hell
Link:
Nominated by Ace_Killjoy
- 0:17. All I want watch is Game of Thrones after just those two notes. And because of those two notes, all I'm imagining is if Game of Thrones was more steampunk. Like, if the clockwork town animations in the opening were legitimately how things looked. Fun and interesting. The song's decent, but I never get into it, and it's not just because I want Game of Thrones.
Recently: #63. Up 3 spaces.

Game: Ar Tonelico II: Melody of Metafalica
Artist: GUST Sound Team

#57. Song: Online Songs
Artist: blink-182
Link:
Nominated by 20three
- I feel ten years younger hearing this, even though I don't think I've ever heard this before. I enjoy these songs in retrospect, just skater jams of really sunny days being punk. Really, all I want to do hearing this is play THPS2.
Recently: #19. Dropped 38 spots.

#56. Song: Game of Thrones Main Title
Artist: Ramin Djawadi
Link:
Nominated by Jeff Zero
- Much better than the Babylon 5 opening. However, while it's a good song that just pulls me in right away and keeps me there throughout, it's something I forget not five seconds after it is finished. It has suspense and character, but there's nothing lingering. Love the show, absolutely love to watch this theme, but it's not much to listen to.

Game: Wild Arms 2
Artist: Michiko Naruke
Link:
Nominated by Natwaf_akidna
- Expected more. Reminded me of M4 P2 in that it was smooth with some action bits, but they didn't build high enough. Unlike M4 P2, which ran too long, this was too short. It really felt like something was coming, and then the song just faded away.
Recently: #57. Up 3 spots.

#53. Song: Something I Can Never Have (Still)
Artist: Nine Inch Nails
Link:
Nominated by Jeff Zero
- Simple and clean is the way that you're making me feel tonight. I feel like I should be more emotionally invested in it. It's very barebones, just the singer and the piano. There are times I listen and I'm very into it, and others it just doesn't resonate at all. Even within the same hour.

#52. Song: Eternal Recurrence
Game: Secret of Mana
Link:
Nominated by azuarc
- The music of Undine's Cave. So beautiful. It falls off a bit in the middle, but the beginning is a huge nostalgia rush of love. It's actually getting less and less enjoyable as it goes on. If it were just the first minute or so, this would be much higher.
Recently: #43. Dropped 9 spots.

#51. Song: M4 P2
Game: Mass Effect 2
Artist: Faunts
Link:
Nominated by Jeff Zero
- Too long for what it does. I stopped paying attention halfway in bcause it just seem to drone on. It changes every now and again, but it's very mellow. Even when things kick in every now and again, they just fade into an auditory background right away. There's the basic calm rhythm, there are these quick spurts of action, and then the action takes over but somehow creates a new layer of ease. It's not bad, but it quickly loses my attention.
Recently: #62. Up 11 places.

Worst Song: Emotions (World Map Theme)

- Wow. Just wow. I was not at all expecting this. You'll surely do better if I do a ranking by average later, but damn! Not only are you the first out, you were also the last one with five songs left. You from perfect to nothing in twelve songs. If anything, that's an accomplishment. Though you're out before the Top 50 (still in shock), you suggested some really good songs. I enjoyed listening to all of them, especially the first time around, but they lost a lot on repeats. The only one that constantly bumped up was "Something I Can Never Have (Still)." It may look like it's been hovering in the middle, but I've kept it out of at least two low updates, almost cutting it around 85 and 75. Your songs have crazy skewed initial impressions, but average out upon repeated listens. None of them are your nominations were bad. You were the last to lose a song and all of your nominations are good.

Just none of them are great. For that, you receive ***Dirty Water***.

Dirty Water ~ This Melonade is not Melonade at all! It may have the color of a pineapple or lemon flavor, but once you taste the metallic and mineral contents, you're aware you got ripped off. Be pleased with what you got, however. It may not taste great, and could possibly be unhealthy depending whether there's chemical dumping in the stream this two-year-submerged glass came from, but it's water and will keep you alive a few more days. If you had a few bad songs, you would've received a Melonade requiring a skull and crossbones label. And as you're the first one gone, all other Melonades must be greater than just dirty water. Congratulations! You've saved everyone's lives! You are a hero!

This is easily the most intense song ranking topic to ever appear on Board 8.

There is so much on the line.

Haitian Divorce in the BOTTOM TEN?!? That's one of the best songs ever, man! Glad you liked that Nappy Roots track though, and Party Life is totally gonna be #1.

#50. Song: Party Life
Artist: Jay-Z
Link:
Nominated by TheCodeIsBosco
- Nice soulful, almost Stevie Wonder sample that hooks me every time. There's just a great amount of swag to the song. He's the man, he's letting you know it.

Also, that ">_>" was for you, Bosco. Party Life may have dropped from a higher place initially, but I've also been bumping it steadily back up from sixty. Remembering "The Girl in the Drawing" was still around saved it from the second half, but no other song's gonna help it out from here.

#49. Song: No. 5
Artist: ParagonX9
Link:
Nominated by SSBDarren64
- Not a big fan of electronica. I had no love for the song, nor any hate. It just passed on by. Six listens later, and it's doing marginally better than it had been, but towards the end it just loses me still. The times it catches, though, it's amazing.

#48. Song: Ghost Love Score
Artist: Nightwish
Link:
Nominated by tazzyboyishere
- Too long! Well, not really. It was enjoyable to listen to throughout. Or hear. I don't know what the lyrics are. It's just a great sounding song. Ten minutes is nothing.

#47. Song: A Tap Dancer's Dilemma
Artist: Diablo Swing Orchestra
Link:
Nominated by FL81
- I really like that swing. The problem is that, even though I enjoy it, I always want it to be over two minutes in. It got a very generous early placement ranked against other early placers like Online Songs, Ghost Love Score, and Ancient Stories. I'm actually surprised to see it almost drop out of the Top 50.

#46. Song: Listen
Artist: Melanie Amaro
Link:
Nominated by JustinCrossing
- She has an incredible voice, and I got chills the first time I heard this, but it's not as much fun to listen to as it is to watch.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

#19. TheCodeIsBosco ~ (50) (64) (66) (93) (99) ~ Avg: 74.4
Best Song: Party Life
Worst Song: Mr. L's Theme

- This is much more expected. Initial impressions ran high with a few of your songs, if only because they were so different from the electronic clog that was kicking my ass a few days in. I thank you for that. However, when it came time to shuffle around, two things were certain:
- Kalifornia Dreamin' needed to be lower.
- Spoonman was insanely difficult to place anywhere.
It's just a consequence of starting to like other songs more that Party Life fell as hard as it did. You gave me some good and refreshing things to listen to.

However, you also nominated Mr. L's Theme and Haitian Divorce. What the hell. You obtain ***Dangerous D'Lite***

Dangerous D'Lite ~ A brilliant combination of Melonade and some exotic purple mushrooms I found in the haunted forest. It tastes delicious and acts as a powerful laxative. Only for the most diesel of thrill-seekers. Some side effects also included: paralysis, numbness, confusion, lethargy, muteness, midgetitis, swelling of the nose, and strong dysentery days after the laxative cleans you out.

True, true.

No big loss, really. I've lost a lot of write-up edits and a lot of ranking aids, but other documents are fine with placement & finished write-ups, nomination tallies, and the original mostly unedited since #76 document with all the old rankings.
