Lock You Up next please! Bad Girls can leave too, but we need Charli's bad songs to leave first.

It's been a while since we've seen Charli (#39!!!), and the little bump in the road delayed it just a bit longer! (Katie, are you a closet Charli stan that doubles as a psychic???)

Lock You Up
#10 • 9/13 LEFT

Two album closers punched out in a row. There have been quite a few unfair eliminations in my opinion, and one of my least favorite Charli songs outlasting all of them really shed lights to that!
This song is cute, but I have one serious complaint with it - it's boring! It really doesn't go anywhere and it's the sole reason I can say I've never truly finished True Romance. |

Lock You Up was just okay. Definitely didn't deserve to rank higher than all of Icona Pop's album.

"Lock You Up" is lovely! The lush wall-of-sound production is gorgeous.

That should've been Charli's second highest song.

We have another tie for numbers 23 and 22.
The previous tie's average was 7, this time, it's a solid 7.5. I couldn't determine separate positions for the earlier tie because they had the same amount of 10's and 9's, and similar to that, these two songs have the same amount of tens. Fortunately, one of the songs had more 9.5's than the other, so it outranked the following song...

Heavy Metal Heart • Kristine • I Will • Love in Stereo
Night Time, My Time
#8 • 7/12 LEFT

Did not to see this one leaving so early, subjective to the other Sky tracks (Heavy Metal Heart, I'm looking at you.) I really enjoy this song and fail to understand why some of you weren't here for it!
Just a bit of a side-note: that one part of the chorus will never NOT sound like "it's Terio" to me ever since my friend brought it up. I hate him. |

I come back to this?!  Love In Stereo is my second fave from that album, on some days its even my favourite!
Those Charli songs are so mediocre.

Listening to them next to each other, "Love In Stereo" is actually kind of reminiscent of "Lock You Up." They're lovely in very much the same way.

Also in regards to Icona Pop, even though I didn't like their album I feel kinda bad.
I hope I Love It manages a top ten placement now.

"Lock You Up" was one of my faves from 'True Romance'.
Honestly, TRF.

I like Love in Stereo! There are like 2 other Sky songs that should be out before it.

The other half of this tie is an artist who is getting a double punch out as we close this update up. Who are we going to be seeing taking a double fall?

Paying my scheme to steal the top of the page post dust.
The Solange eliminations are always so tough for me.  The last track of each album have all been eliminated, as our #22, #24, #25, and #29 songs (Solange, Charli, Icona Pop, Sky Ferreira). Here's the second half of the "Love in Stereo" tie.
 |
#22.
"BAD GIRLS (VERDINE VERSION)", Solange
AVERAGE: 7.5
Highest: 10 (2: MP2K, supaspaz)
Lowest: 3 (Ice Cream Skies)
1: none
2: none
3: Ice Cream Skies
4: superiore-93, Eglé
5: genetic fail
6: Sky Ferreira, Penk (6.5)
7: Stevie, Luigi, Ewan Chaos (7.5)
8: THERihFan, sticks (8.5), madonnas, Nat A (8.5), Sláy
9: Blueberry Mary, lovesong (9.5), Ace Reject (9.5), Dragonfly, adrianbeane (9.5)
I love you: MP2K, supaspaz

Losing You • Some Things Never Seem to ****ing Work
Locked in Closets • Lovers in Parking Lot • Don't Let Me Down
Looks Good with Trouble • Bad Girls (Verdine Version)
#5 • 4/7 LEFT
|
I remember how bad I wanted this to be a Donna Summer cover when I first saw it on the track list. When I found out it was not, I was not disappointed to hear this godly track.
Such a great track. That falsetto is IT, Solange. And getting Verdine to play bass for this track was so, so awesome. I'm filing this under "I hate y'all part... six?" or so. I think I might mean it this time. |

Oh HELL no. Other than "Losing You," this is the best track on True. (In fact, it might be the best track on True.) How is it not top ten?

It's rightfully the highest album closer because it's the only good one. And not just good, it's life itself/slays me/done for the gods/insert all phrases similar to that here.
I'm justifying the lack of replies on the fact that you guys are speechless this song is so low.
