The 100 Video Game Song Showdown V3 - SEMI FINALS ROUND 4 (ANYONE CAN VOTE)

[~Kilza~]

The Virgin Child Makes Her Wish Without Feeling Anything - No More Heroes: 6.5/10 - This was pretty decent. Background track was good, singer and lyrics were decent.
Enter the Gungeon - Enter the Gungeon: 5 or what???/10 - This is very well the strangest song in this whole showdown for me. Beginning was pretty tame, kinda "eh". Then it picked up and I was like "oh hey this might actually be good". Then all these voices come in and I'm just like "what the strawberries is going on". This left me pretty confused. I don't even really know how to rate this since I'm like "how do you rate something that strange when you're unsure how you feel about it", so I'm just defaulting to 5 since...yeah, really unsure.
Eleventh Hour - Oneshot: 8/10 - Always down for a peaceful and relaxing song.
In Circles - Transistor: 8.5/10 - This was definitely a solid song. Good background track, good singer, decent lyrics. I enjoyed it.
Sidon's Theme - The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild: 7/10 - This was soothing. Not really mind blowing or anything, but it's a decent enough song to listen to.

no more heroes 2/10 - what the **** is this guys voice. terrible is what it is. like a bad choir singer at church. not a 1 because of the cool sax at the end

gungeon 6/10 - its weird but im groovin. gets worse towards the end. like they got a dude who was like "yeah i can totally rap!".

oneshot 7/10 - peaceful, i like it. its something i would put on a playlist and then forget about and kinda just have in the background

transistor 7/10 - this is good, love the girl singing, but i feel like she could sing better stuff. also i dont like the middle part just sounds like grating noise

zelda 5/10 - yep thats a flute and some piano. boring song. its "pretty"

The Virgin Child Makes Her Wish Without Feeling Anything - No More Heroes: 6/10 - Old school. Was fine, 6.
Enter the Gungeon - Enter the Gungeon : 6/10 - How novel. Didn't really enjoy it much tho.
Eleventh Hour - Oneshot: 5/10 - kinda boring? but okay.
In Circles - Transistor: 7/10 - Never played this game but I've heard another song from their OST which I massively preferred (We All Become)? This was a pretty good song. Singer's got a good voice.
Sidon's Theme - The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild: 6/10 - This is really nice but... it's so short and basic- there's nothing more to it and so I'm left feeling disappointed on the whole!

pretty weak round considering the last two!

 

[Bossvelt]

The Virgin Child Makes Her Wish Without Feeling Anything - No More Heroes: 1/10 genuinely hilarious

Enter the Gungeon - Enter the Gungeon: 5/10 decent but the rapping takes away from it a lot and this is from someone who likes rap

Eleventh Hour - Oneshot: 7.5/10 neat

In Circles - Transistor: 8.5/10 v gudu love the vocals

Sidon's Theme - The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild: 6/10 pretty but short

The Virgin Child Makes Her Wish Without Feeling Anything from No More Heroes
3/10 imteresting little piece, i thought the background was ok but i didn't like the voice with it at all

Enter the Gungeon from Enter the Gungeon
8/10 i rly liked this, some of the vocals were a little odd and took me out of it and i do overall wish the rapping wasn't there, cuz it's got a really intoxicating ethereal sound to it otherwise

Eleventh Hour from Oneshot
9.5/10 mesmerizing... i did not find this boring at all. every piece of it worked and it didn't try too hard to be anything it wasn't

In Circles from Transistor
8.5/10 another very very pretty one... the vocals were good too

Sidon's Theme from The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild
6/10 it is p nice. but the fl00t noise (?) was a little grating to me for some reason and overall i found it a little too basic.

 

[Bones Barlow]

The Virgin Child Makes Her Wish Without Feeling Anything - No More Heroes: 6/10 Of all the fantastic tracks from this game, I'm genuinely confused as to why this one was picked. It's not bad, I don't think, but there were so many great songs in NMH that this one pales in comparison. Nice set of pipes on the singer, at least.

Enter the Gungeon - Enter the Gungeon: 5/10 I liked this a lot more before the rap bits came in.

Eleventh Hour - Oneshot: 8/10 Ooooh, pretty.

In Circles - Transistor: 8/10 I really liked the vocals here.

Sidon's Theme - The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild: 7/10 I liked this. Not much more to say about it.

 

[Revan]

The Virgin Child Makes Her Wish Without Feeling Anything - No More Heroes: 1.5/10 I didn't like this. The instrumentals weren't balanced and the singer was bad.

Enter the Gungeon - Enter the Gungeon: 6/10 The vocalizations were unexpected but not TERRIBLE. It would have been more of a jam without them tho.

Eleventh Hour - Oneshot: 7/10 This was relaxing and pretty laid-back. Not much going on in it though.

In Circles - Transistor: 7.5/10 This was an interesting song. I liked the instrumentals and the vocals were ok, though tbh I didn't really like the singer's voice. The bridge was nice with the guitar and banging on metal sounds lol.

Sidon's Theme - The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild: 10/10 The piccolo makes me think of someone who lost someone very dear to them but is still carrying on to save the world. The piano chords fit so well too and I love this theme.

The Virgin Child Makes Her Wish Without Feeling Anything - No More Heroes: 2/10 - I did not find the vocals pleasant at all

Enter the Gungeon - Enter the Gungeon: 6.5/10 - ok so the rapping actually made me like it a little more bc it felt so busy and i wasn't fond but then the rapping made me chuckle? idk i can't take this song seriously at all.

Eleventh Hour - Oneshot: 7/10 - I'm basically with Lizzy on this one it's a nice chill background track

In Circles - Transistor: 10/10 - I love this soundtrack. Unfortunately this is one of those songs that is better with context (and more specifically when paired with _n C_rcl_s) but it's a jam and probably my favorite vocal track from the game.

Sidon's Theme - The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild: 6.5/10 - it's nice, but i wish it was a little less simple

The Virgin Child Makes Her Wish Without Feeling Anything - No More Heroes: 4
Quite fine, but the singer sounds more like someone doing a wacky impression than an actual singer which brings it down some for me and keeps me form really getting into it.

Enter the Gungeon - Enter the Gungeon: 10
By Beholster eye, Dragun tooth, Gungeon wind do whisper one truth... This is definitely a song that I feel is context based. It's an upgraded version of the main theme and it feels so good the first time you listen to it because you know you have beat the final boss. The rap to me is cheesy but fun and perfectly encapsulates what the whole game is.

Eleventh Hour - Oneshot: 7
This thumbnail reminds me of this time I went to Chile's. On a more serious note, this song is nice and chill. I like it.

In Circles - Transistor: 7
This an interesting and kinda calm song up to a certain point. The singer's vocals are super nice. The lyrics are also kinda potent. There's something that ticks me off about this song, but I can't lay my finger on it outside of it maybe being the annoying screeching sound that happens halfway through.

Sidon's Theme - The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild: 6.5
Just nice background Zelda music that adds to the experience but I feel kinda struggles standing on its own due to a lack of something making the song stand out outside of the flute. And even then, flutes I feel are a major part of Zelda music.

Egg Emperor - Sonic Heroes: 2.5/10 - We started with a Sonic Heroes song, we end with a Sonic Heroes song. This is boring tbh. It just falls flat so badly.

Discussion ~HEAT UP~ from Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc
9/10 im love this track. it's a straight jam

Make This Right from Furi
8/10 this is p dam chill. idk how i feel about the ending but most the track is rly nice

Labyrinth of Sand from SNK Heroines: Tag Team Frenzy
7.5/10 this is very circusy... i like it!!

Dance Time! from Pajama Sam: No Need To Hide When It's Dark Outside
3/10 look nostalgia aside (and i have a LOT of nostalgia for this game) i don't have much to say it is a very basic dance track and very washed out from age.

Egg Emperor from Sonic Heroes
5/10 dam this slapped at first but didn't have much to it overall.

 

[Nuuk]

danganronpa 4/10 - repetitive af, reminds me of a racing game character select screen. repetitive gradual techno

furi 8/10 - i like this alot, but ive listened to music like this and compared to that its pretty ok. like i like the genre but in terms of the genre its average. and it gets a lil too grungy for me around the 4min mark.

SNK 9/10 - i love whimsical songs like this, there are some things i dislike about it but overall i love the dark circus/grande ball feeling.

pajama sam 1/10 - why is it so quiet. why is this here.

sonic 4/10 - there are so many better sonic songs. this one is super repetitive and just generic rock.

 

[seaturtle]

happy birthday boss i'm doing this without u harassing me first :J

Discussion ~HEAT UP~ from Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc | 6/10
jamming song and started off strong but then it just kept looping.... if it had more variety it would have been great but if you cut it at the first loop it'd be short af and not have much else

Make This Right from Furi | 5.5/10
well it was definitely a song. started off rly good.... but like around 3mins i lost interest and the ending was like ?????????????????????????????

Labyrinth of Sand from SNK Heroines: Tag Team Frenzy | 7.5
fun and casual song!! idk if anyone else feels this but it almost was like luigi's mansion at the circus? idk, nice track tho

Dance Time! from Pajama Sam: No Need To Hide When It's Dark Outside | 2.5/10
um,,,,

Egg Emperor from Sonic Heroes | 5/10
idk this was just mediocre on every level and not much else

 

[Bluejay]

Discussion ~HEAT UP~ - Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc (7/10) It's fun to listen to, but actually works better in-game than on its own
Make This Right - Furi (7/10) This is certainly a slow-paced EDM track. I do like the sounds used but I'm curious as to how this is used in-game...
Labyrinth of Sand - SNK Heroines: Tag Team Frenzy (5.5/10) This went in so many directions
Dance Time! -Pajama Sam: No Need To Hide When It's Dark Outside (3/10) What's going on with the sound production here? Also there's not a whole lot to actually rate; it seems very simple
Egg Emperor - Sonic Heroes* (5.5/10) The guitar is nice but overall this track feels kinda monotonous
