Hear, hear! Here are the results for this last round and let me state a few disclaimers first. Even though all of the rounds have awesome so far thanks to you guys and I've enjoyed most of the songs and all, but this round I just had more fun listening to the songs. DAT CATCHINESS!
Another point is that there were a couple of songs that were sent that were just
but not as catchy as the rest and as I would've liked. That's why they got lower scores than they probably would've had the theme been different. Also maybe because I have a hard time rating things, that's why usually all the ratings have been very high in every round cause it also bothers me to give low ratings but I really haven't needed to with all the songs I've gotten and have enjoyed. Anyway, enough blabbering on to the really important stuff.
Shadow Ninja 2.0 - Keldian: The Last Frontier
Right off the bat we have a great and catchy song indeed. Songs of this genre can sometimes be a hit or miss for me, but thankfully this one was a hit. I mean just everything about this song would get stuck in my head after listening to it. Of course the most catchy part was the chorus, "The storm is here, we will show no fear, we will lead the way, across the last frontier". I would sing it everything time it came up and would randomly sing it when not even listening to the song or any music. I think the vocals really helped in how they perfectly fit the song both male and female ones. Score: 10/10
senecadawg2 - Coheed and Cambria: Mother Superior
So the only experience I have had before with this band is the song everybody else has heard before which is Welcome Home. So I was looking forward to hearing how a catchy song from them would sound. The verdict is that it sounds good. I've seen people say they usually have an issue with Claudio's vocals, lucky for me that I don't and I actually really like them, especially in this song. It does have a good chorus but I wouldn't consider it to be as catchy as I would like or compared to some of the other songs I got this round. I also think it would've been somewhat more catchy if it was a tad bit shorter but that's just for the sake of being catchy, not cause of how good of a song it is. Score: 8/10
adace - Amaranthe: 1,000,000 Lightyears
Hey that guy turned into a girl in the beginning. Jokes aside I felt like this song was a good song and all but not something I would probably listen to regularly but that's not what we're judging right now. I like the sound of song and singers in it though felt the harsh ones were a bit eh(actually listening to the song while writing this I think they are better than what I make it sound like) but they fit with the song. Chorus I thought was okay and can hear and feel it being catchy but it doesn't really grab me or stick with me and just felt like it was short to help it be more catchy than it could have been. Score: 7/10
lonestar - Destrage: Destroy Create Transform Subliminate
Hmmmmm so one of those songs I really had a hard time giving a score because of how much I liked it and thought it was good but didn't feel like it lived up to my I guess I'll call it for right now, standards of it being a catchy song. So I really like this song like I previously mentioned because of awesome musicianship and great vocals in it. Really like the guitars throughout the whole song, the playing of it and sound of them. Problem I have is how it has what I consider to be quite a number of changes in it and thinking the chorus was okay. If this was in any other round, the score would probably be higher than it is by far. Also that unexpected ending yo! Badass. Score: 8/10
Dr. DTVT - Seventh Wonder: Alley Cat
You sent one of those songs too that were really good and all but hard to give a justifiable score under the theme of this round. Seventh Wonder is a band I have heard mentioned a number of times in this forum but never checked them out. Now I know I should and will after listening to this song. I liked it and can see why many people here like this band and feel like I will too. Good singer, great musicians, and great results. Sadly though I can't score it as high as I would like because you sent it cause you found "the chorus catchy as fuck". Bad luck for you that I didn't find it catchy as you do. I thought it was good and all but something that'll stay in my head and I'll find myself singing along to whenever like I would with The Last Frontier. Score: 7.5/10
Dark Castle - Lady Gaga: Summerboy
My Lady Gaga experience so far has only been really the singles that would be heard everywhere I go when they are released. I never really tell anybody that I actually like some of them or find them to be good cause I never thought or had a reason to bring it up. Therefore I didn't know what to expect from this song and good thing you thought of sending this. So focusing on what I thought worked for this song was Lady Gaga herself. The way she sings in the song and especially the chorus just really hit me in that I thought it was great and catchy and something that instantly stuck on me. Yes the music in it is great as well and really helps the catchiness of the song. Score: 10/10
Ben_Jamin - Pendulum: The Island Pt.1(Dawn)
So you had a hard time figuring out what I meant by catchy and what to send. I didn't think anybody would have that problem and is a reason why I picked it as the round theme. Good thing you found a song to send. I have listened to Pendulum songs before and this album but only select songs off of it. You managed to pick a good one from it. I really like the beat it has and the melody played by synths and all. The vocalist is good too and is typical of what you hear from music like this. This had a dose of catchy in many parts of the song and with both the music and the vocals. Not as strong as some of the other scores but good enough. Score: 8.5/10
Lucien - Frost*:Toys
By the goodwill of my heart, you were able to get back in this roulette and send me songs. You've done a pretty good job so far as has everybody else and you did it again with this song. Frost* has been the same with me like it has been with Seventh Wonder in which I've seen them be mentioned but enver checked them out. I most def will now thanks to this song. I just liked everything from it, the sound, the playing, the singing, the chorus, the upbeat feeling to it. It just worked and I really liked it. Only reason why its not getting a 10/10 is because I just felt like it fell short of being as catchy as the other 10/10's from this round but I know its a song I'll keep listening to again and again. Score: 9.5/10
