i have such a huge crush on Nick Robinson, and now that he's becoming lowkey more famous I can add him to my top 3 without worrying that he'll drop off the face of the earth

Do you know how I score?  I've given ONE song a 9.5 in my entire life. (Though I did give a couple scores around 9 this round  )

Heartbreaker you got the best of me
But I just keep on coming back incessantly
Oh why, did you have to run your game on me?
I should have known right from the start
You'd go and break my heart

ClarksonSlays
 The Story (feat. Era)I thought the first half of the first verse was cheesy in a cute kind of way, I liked the descriptive language you set up in the second half. The pre-chorus is a decent set up. I liked the chorus the best I think. Love the hidden masterpiece line in the second verse. The knight line was a bit cringe-worthy though. Scratch what I said about the chorus being the best part, the bridge supasses it by far. The colorless walls line is the best. This was a good collaboration, it reminded me of Love You Like I’m Gonna Lose You a bit.
Love Her
I thought the first verse was pretty shaky, I liked the concept and idea you were going with it but it didn’t come across well to me. The chorus was so much better and was amazing. The slayage of the moon/sun lines though. The final line of the chorus hits pretty hard too. I cringed at the home in the woods line in the second verse though. Not me thinking you meant Brooke Shields though. The vow line was the highlight of verse 2, which was kinda messy. The bridge is fantastic, you really have a knack for making good bridges. The gambling line is the best.
Lost Birds
The first verse was decent, it was a solid start to the song but I don’t think it really blew me away or anything. The chorus is definitely a step up and easily the best part of the song, I’m in love with the skies line, so beautiful. The second verse kinda reminds me of the pre-chorus of Demi’s Nightingale, in a good way. The bridge is beautiful, love the stars line the most, it was so well written. Overall, this seemed like a ballad to me and would be a good late summer single possibly.
EuphorianSea
Ballerina
I didn’t find the first verse to be anything special and was pretty weak, in my opinion. The pre-chorus was so much better, loved the city roads and home line the best. Really like the chorus too, didn’t like the room line though and it felt out of place. The second verse was so much better than the first by miles. Though I found it a bit repetitive. The bridge is the best part of the song. Overall, it’s a pretty good single.
Paradox
Really liked the first verse, the repetitiveness of the final word being used as the next line was well done. I like the pre-chorus and it was a nice set up into the chorus. I really like the chorus but the lemon drops line and sugary was so cringe-worthy and the weakest part of the song so far. I liked the second chorus (guessing you meant verse or?) but it was a lot weaker than the first verse. The bridge was pretty great too.
Shy
The steaming line in the first verse is so awkward. Don’t like the egg and whip cream line either, doesn’t really make sense and it’s unneeded. I liked the rest of the verse though. I don’t like the Christopher line in the pre-chorus. I like the chorus the best so far, the repetitiveness is good and it has the best set of lyrics from the song. Love the highway line in the second verse. Great start to it and it’s a lot better than verse 1. The bridge was decent, but I think the second verse was the best part of the song.

Rose Body
I liked the first verse, it was a nice start to the song but it didn’t leave a huge impression on me. A bit confused about the pre-chorus, not sure what you mean about the dying flower without a source. Love the chorus though, definitely the highlight of the song. The second verse was so much better than the first verse and was so well written. Love the storm part the best, actually the whole first half of the second verse was good. Not a huge fan of the bridge but it’s still decent.
Possibility
The first verse kind of reminds me of Imagination from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory actually, but it in a good way of course, love that song. Love the pre-chorus. The chorus was a lot better, I liked jump into the surface line. The hook was a step up from the chorus too. The constellation line was great. Didn’t really like the second verse and it was a lot weaker than the first. Really liked the bridge but it’s definitely among the weakest parts of the song.
Oblivion (feat. conatus)
I kinda have no clue what the first verse is tryna say and I read it twice, it was a bit confusing. The pre-chorus and chorus were a lot better and a huge step up. The second verse made more sense than the first and I liked it way more. I think the outro is my favorite part of the song though. Overall, this was a pretty good collab, shaky in some parts though.

Wilderness
The first verse was so well written, I think my favorite part was the first half about the shooting light. The chorus is amazing as well, the lantern line feels a little overused though. The polaroid line is the best part of the second verse by far. Overall, this would be a great single and I could see it being a hit, it also reminds me of Taylor’s This Love.
Nothing Is Forever
The first verse completely blew me away, the ocean line is so genius and well written. Love the descriptive storytelling language too. The chorus is decent but it’s definitely not as good as the first verse. Didn’t really like the second verse as much as the first. Blink is such an awkward word for me to use in a song. I like the bridge/third verse doesn’t really add much to the song for me though. This was a good nod to Wildest Dreams but I feel like you could’ve done a little more tweaking in the second verse and bridge to make them stand out more.
Paradise (feat. Hugamari)
The kiss/lips lyrics in the first verse feels so overdone. The second half of the first verse was so much better, the descriptive language and the firework line was great (I see that Dear John reference there). I liked the chorus but it feels a little too familiar with the whole paradise theme. I liked the second verse, didn’t have any issues with it. The bridge is the highlight of the song. Overall, this is a good collab but the chorus could’ve been better.
Sam
Celestial
I think the first verse sounds familiar with the whole club/name thing. The pre-chorus is a lot better and flows nicer. The chorus is the best part of the song, so well written. I didn’t really like the second verse so much, the verses are the weakest part by far. The bridge is pretty good but doesn’t really add much to the song for me.
Red Thread
Really liked the first verse, it was pretty unique and well written. The second verse was a lot better, loved the time references, the Mona Lisa one was great. The second verse seems to be the highlight so far. The chorus is good, have no problems with it. Wait, nevermind, I prefer the third verse to the second, stan for Ellie Goulding’s best song a bit. I think I liked this a lot better than Past Lives.
Frightening Nights and Lightning Strikes (feat. dwuw)
Love the first verse, such a great start to the song, so promising. The pre-chorus is simple but effective. Love the chorus, definitely the highlight of the song so far. The second verse is a lot better than the first, you better redeem yourself dwuw. The bridge is the best part of the song and is amazing. I don’t think I have any problems with this song, really great collaboration.

Mess at the vow line being your favorite when that was the line I liked the least in that verse

Def a ballad, that could never be some ratchet club anthem. And yeah I see it as a late summer single ala Stay With Me.
It's funny how I felt so nervous and not confident about my EP because I felt like everything I had written just sounded as tired as I was, but I'm glad it didn't come across as that
