Ok next time I guess we do one song each since it's dumb to have two polls up. But 16 is the limit soooo....

Please vote for your 3 favorites in the poll.

Voting closes end of the month.

You can vote for your 3 faves in each poll btw and 6 songs will move on to the quarterly or half yearly whatever we do.

B-side:
Jim Croce - I Got a Name
Declan McKenna - Brazil
Velvet Acid Christ - Ghost In The Circuit
Elohim - Little Idiot
Bertrands Wish - Always Been the Same
Alba August - So Alive
JEON SOMI - Anymore
Judah & the Lion - Why Did You Run?
Jay Hardway - Solid
Pinegrove - So What
The Zolas - Get Dark
Red Hot Chili Peppers - Black Summer
Sylvan Esso - Rooftop Dancing
Dayglow - Fair Game

After a very strong start, this playlist, just like the A-side, quickly returned to bleh over and over again. Nothing really stood out to me, other then Croce and the RHCP. Needing a third vote, I decided to throw it to Wikey. If forced to pick a 4th, I guess it would have gone to Judah and the Lion.

I've mostly been listening to these playlists when I've been out, so I haven't really looked at which songs I like and don't like as much yet.

Most songs seem to be pretty decent and there have been a few standouts that I really enjoyed.

Most of this stuff is as new to me as Bertrands Wish actually.

I have to say the same thing as Spin in that nothing really stood out to me except Jim Croce. But I only sampled each song just now.

Bertram's Wish did stand out too because Wikey. :P It could grow on me.

I Got a Name - old and dusty... not my cup of tea.

Brazil - This is quite catchy, may or may not get my vote.

Ghost In The Circuit - Quite a long instrumental piece... it's ok.

Little Idiot - It's ok, not really my cup of tea but quite ok still.

Always Been the Same - Really good song, Wikey knows I like this one :P Great guitars too.

So Alive - Meh

Anymore - Too poppy for me.

Why Did You Run? - A bit too generic for me, but not bad.

Solid - This is amazing

So What - I love this duh, such a simple and cheerful song

Get Dark - Nice one, I could see myself voting for this.

Black Summer - Sounds like any RHCP song. Nothing special but not bad either.

Rooftop Dancing - uh uh

Fair Game - Niceee. Yeaah I like this.


Always Been the Same
Fair Game
Solid

I Got a Name - another solid patio drinking song.

Brazil - I get a chuckle out of Ahoda trashing other songs, meanwhile submitting this song which may be the worst song ever created.

Ghost In The Circuit - not really my jam.

Little Idiot - I don't mind this one, it's catchy.

Always Been the Same - this one is okay

So Alive - I kinda liked this one

Anymore - I kinda liked this one too

Why Did You Run? - I used to listen to this one a lot a couple years back, and really like Judah & the Lion

Solid - another one I'd like in an altered state of mind.

So What - I enjoyed this one.

Get Dark - not bad

Black Summer - I don't dislike the Chili Peppers, but just haven't been able to get into this latest one.

Rooftop Dancing - can't get into this one.

Fair Game - can't get into this one either.

Jim Croce “I Got A Name”



-love Jim Croce and this is one of his best.



Declan McKenna “Brazil”



-my song so it’s clearly the best song on the list.



Velvet Acid Christ “Ghost In The Circuit”



-this is the music I expect from a JRPG. Who can stand 5+ minutes of this?



Elohim “Little Idiot”



-egh, it’s pop music but it’s not horrible, but also not great



Bertrands Wish “Always Been The Same”



-<3 Wikey…..it’s actually pretty good.



Alba August “So Alive”



-knock off Adele. Not my thing but I get it.



JFON SOMI “Anymore”

-pop



Judah And The Lion “Why Did You Run”



-think I’ve heard of this band and they have better song then this. This one is ok.





Jay Hardaway “Solid”



-Naming this song “Solid” was a bad idea. Should have named it “Trash”.





Pinegrove “So What”



-didn’t love it but definitely enjoyed it. Type of song I would like a lot more over time.



The Zolas “Get Dark”



-has an 80s tropical feel to it. I like this one.





Red Hot Chili Peppers “Black Summer”



-love RHCP



Sylvan Esso “Rooftop Dancing”



-nice track



Dayglow “Fair Game”



-love Dayglow. Nice pick.
