A "universally liked" song in an album that flopped commercially and critically is not easy.

My other options were all deluxe bonus tracks and I was afraid bonus tracks are not good enough for the bulletproof round. |
Honestly you could've went for the bonus tracks. That would've won a save from me, since originally, the bonus tracks were originally how bionic was going to sound. My off vote isn't anything personal, I critique harder on albums that I listen to on a personal basis, because trust, bionic was overall a mess but I still feel Not Myself Tonight pandered to a larger audience. Just my opinion, no need to take offense.

I'm not taking offense though, I'm just messing a bit. It's just a game. And I signed up with Bionic so I'm obviously not that obsessed with winning it, no shade to my fave

She's got a ton of great albums, but Jagged Little Pill is the one where literally every song slays. I'm excited to play with it and see how it goes!

Good! I'm glad we're both understanding it's a game 
But I hope you get far with Bionic, shed some light into the album that could've been

All I'm going to say is that I do have an ideal top 3 in my head and it doesn't include me 
It includes one pop girl fan, one person that voted me off and one huge risk taker

Also, these Bionic references are too great. Legend X needs a new album to reference. It's been 4 years

No, it's not your fault! I didn't think it would start up again so soon, so that was kind of my fault. Hopefully whoever's playing with Maroon 5's V makes it far!  That was the album I planned on playing with this season! Anyways... I will definitely make sure to sign up next season because I love this game and I love the experience that I've gotten from it, and I want to be a part of it again. I'm really disappointed that I missed the sign-ups for this one, but I'll definitely be in the next one!

OFF:
Salute (umm move would have been a better choice, or little me)
Moments (I would have chosen not on drugs, because for me it's just such an addcitive track, and it's so universal in my opinion at least, or habits maybe)
Eye Of The Needle (Big Girls Cry says hello, a lot of girls cna relate to this song, even boys, also chandelier)
Maroon 5 (no hunny, i don't think that this was the best choice)
Chasing Time (I liked essay, but you had so many better choices.. )
Save:
Roar (why the off's most universal tracks, also was sued in olympic games commercial, def most universal, don't get the bias)
Hannah Montana (Yes bisch, fab choice, loves it)
Call Me Maybe (nothing to add)
Oops...I Did It Again (definitely)

I just realized I offed Katy by accident. Initially I thought it was SAVE 5 / OFF 4 and when I realized I was wrong, I messed up my vote. Let me edit
