I certainly like Baluchon's, Burning Rangers, and Wind Scene, but they didn't make my top 100. I do wonder if Burning Rangers should have made it, though....(the problem with Burning Rangers is that the rating wildly fluctuates depending on my mood)

purna continues to be one of the most phenomenal things ive discovered this year.

wind scene continues to be a competent classic in its own right.

match 2 is rough, i like both of these, but the sound of baluchons hits harder. that intro is so beautiful i swear. but if it loses maybe ill finally have a chance to vote azure archipelago.

burning rangers still got those nightmares like wes crave (god i love that line)

feeling lost painting a little more today, but it ain't no sega vocal cheese.

me: wind scene is a boring song whose popularity is fueled mainly by nostalgia
