Not seeing anything odd here! The only really odd song out of the bunch is the last one.

I've made my opinion of "West Coast" pretty clear but that is not important here. Structurally, it's odd, with its tempo changes and whatnot. While I love the other two songs, they're not outstandingly odd. I mean, it is odd by pop standards, but... I don't know. You could have done more with this.

It's true, your songs are pretty diverse, but I think you have yet to differentiate yourself from the rest of the contestants. I like how you went a bit more on the non-mainstream route with this one, but still your entry is just there.

Mess, literally what did I just watch with that last MV? anyway, yeah those songs are really odd. Not only is that video weird af, but the fact that it's literally written in a made up language is what's really remarkable. The songs aren't that good, which is kinda disappointing. But I guess that's what happens when we have an 'odd' trinity.

Originally posted by conatus

The Sigur Rós song definitely fits, but to me, there's nothing outstandingly odd about the Bon Iver song, and the Les Sins song just makes use of repetition, which a lot of songs do. You just have to get yourself down to the club to know that.

Originally posted by Legend E

Very interesting approach, although I wish the entry was a bit more cohesive. Making an album full of lyrics like the type you've mentioned seems pretty extreme, isn't it? I'd say Bon Iver's song is the least "odd" song, but it's still good. Overall, I like your trinity, great job.

Venus is odd, i'll give you that, however It's still commercial in a way. The lyrics are childish and the production is nothing to brag about. And just no @ the other two.

Originally posted by conatus

Now, structurally, "Venus" is not the most standard of songs, but if this is honestly the best you could come up with as an "odd" entry... Even with the theme of the entry, there are more than probably odder songs by those specific artists.

Originally posted by Legend E

Of course, what else than a Gaga song could a monster put in his trinity. It is a good entry, but still too pop influenced in my opinion. That's not bad, but compared to others your entry seems...basic? And please, I Knew You Were Trouble didn't make country-pop a thing, let us not.

ahsjhjaha I am SCREAMING @ the last song. What is this mess Not a child rapping the final freestyle. Lawd. okok but seriously, I did enjoy the variety. Each song is 100% different from each other and the theme is definitely different I woudln't say odd, just different.

Originally posted by conatus

I think the inclusion of "8" was good because of how unexpected the shift in style was. The Babymetal song is also odd, but you could have found something even more bizarre from Japan, I think. The inclusion of "Chiraq" was good, though, but it was only odd because of the child rapping. It's a pretty standard rap freestyle.

Originally posted by Legend E

Another interesting approach, but you know I don't really feel the oddness (well, maybe, except the last song). I mean, yes, maybe they are a bit odd for a child and everything, but still I think that the Babymetal song is not that unusual among children, and the Willow song is not that special. I'm giving you kudos for the very interesting approach anyway, and I can't really say I didn't like your entry, but I was hoping you could find odder situations.

Idk, Tyler just seems way to try-hard for my taste. Like he'll do anything to seem odd Like, we get it, you're weird. And absolute death @ that Twigs video and song. Weird af

Originally posted by conatus

This is the only entry that I would consider truly odd. The unusual structures and topic matters of the song make for a diverse for cohesive entry. [tymps note: getting that KITTical acclaim hahahahahaha]

Originally posted by Legend E

Woo, an interesting one here for sure. I love how you chose three types of odd songs and they all fit somehow. Great entry!

Kyle.

Originally posted by Buddy!

What is this mess. I'm not sure what to think. Yeah each song is different, and odd, but there's just no theme or flow. I feel like you just threw together 3 odd songs and called it a day. I'll give you this though, each song is def "odd." You hit the nail on the head with that one.

Originally posted by conatus

I had actually never heard that Dannii song, so that was interesting to hear. I love "The Dreaming", and it's definitely a somewhat bizarre listen, but I think there are even weirder songs on that album, let alone Kate, her discography. "Act Of Contrition" was a good choice, if a little obvious.

Originally posted by Legend E

I have nothing bad to say about this entry. There is cohesiveness, there is weirdness, everything I wanted. Congrats!

Originally posted by Buddy!

Yeah Mer is kinda creepy, and Boys Latin to an extent. However, Wind it up isn't. Yeah I see your point, but at the same time I don't. I think it's a good song and it certainly dosen't fit under the odd category.

Originally posted by conatus

THANK. GOD. @ someone seizing the opportunity and choosing "Mer Girl". I like this entry, but it definitely feels like you could have gone even further with it.

Originally posted by Legend E

Another good entry here. I wish there was a bit more cohesiveness, but still you showed three different sides of oddness which is good. Gwen is maybe a bit too much since she only has the yodels which are weird, but I definitely found it the same way when I listened to it.

Originally posted by Buddy!

Yeah I get it, I see your point with each song. I do like the variety and how you pointed out why each song is odd in their own way.

Originally posted by conatus

While none of these songs are odd to a major degree, your write-up of "7AM" definitely made it more... Creepy than anything. I didn't know that about that song.

Originally posted by Legend E

Again, not that odd as others. Yes, maybe Azealia is and maybe for Ke$ha it's a bit risky to write a song like that. but it's just there. There's nothing that weird about your entry to go crazy about.

stawpppp Die Antwoord scares me so much This definitely screams odd to me, each artist is respectfully odd themselves, but idk just something about this i'm not feeling? How odd!

Originally posted by conatus

Let me put my absolute hatred of Die Antwoord aside for a second. This entry isn't that odd. "play" is, to me, one of iamamiwhoami's more accessible songs (You could have gone with, say, "clump" or "b"...), and "Lover" isn't anything outstandingly odd. That being said, "Cookie Thumper" is definitely the oddest of the bunch, and it stands out for that reason.

Originally posted by Legend E

That song is called play sis, not stay. Aside from that, your entry is pretty good, and shows different varities of oddness, but somehow doesn't stand out from the others. Like, I agree they are odd, but I just prefer some other trinites more.

Club banger about Cartoon prostitutes? Klitt getting that promo. Yas glad you included the queen of odd, but I feel like that was predictable. I mean anyone could pick a single Bjork song and call it odd, because, well, they are odd.

Originally posted by conatus

I liked the inclusion of "There's More To Life Than This", but "Are You That Somebody?", even with the child's laugh, isn't oustandingly odd. I just wish the rest of the entry matched up to the oddness of "We Are Prositutes".

Originally posted by Legend E

Well, yeah, it's an okay entry, but it sounds meh compared to the others. I'm really surprised about the Bjork song, well not choosing her for an odd trinity, but how she recorded the song in a bathroom when it sounds nothing like that. It's cohesive, but not that odd as others.

Originally posted by Buddy!

Just not seeing how this is supposed to be odd? Each song is different from each of their respective albums, but alone they're really not that odd.

Originally posted by conatus

The only thing that is odd about "Nude Beach A Go-Go" is the shift in style from the rest of the album, which goes for "Jewels N' Drugs" too. "Better Left Unsaid", though? How is that odd? It's a pretty standard pop song. This whole entry is more "The Incohesive Songs On Their Respective Albums Trinity" than anything.

Originally posted by Legend E

Oh come on, none of those songs is weird at all, maybe "Nude Beach", but only that one. You have just talked about how they don't fit on the albums they come from, not how they are weird as songs. And none of them is weird at all and I am pretty sure everyone agrees. [tymps note: r00d]

tbh I was actually going to put this on my entry but it was too confusing for anyone trying to understand

[Kitt]

^
Wait. I used to play this ALL the time in plug, I can't believe I didn't think to include it.

[conatus]

[wesleywalrus]

Really? The challenge should've been "weird" instead of "odd" if we wanted to be clear on everything. "Odd" is broad. In my sense, I used "odd" as the "odd one out" on the respective albums on the songs I chose. I'm salty.

[Buddy!]

This round was so hard and messy to judge

[conatus]

Theus, sis, if it's confusing and bizarre it would have been perfect for this round. Instead you went for an Aaliyah song.

Normally, the Golden Trinity picks who to eliminate from the Flop Trinity. But anything can change! This round only, every non Flop Trinity contestant will be individually voting for who to eliminate from the Flop Trinity. Remember there is only one contestant being eliminated.

Golden Trinity, you have two options. You can either all vote individually and have each vote count as one vote, or you can make a collective decision on one contestants and have your vote count as five votes. If you choose to vote together, ALL of you must individually PM me the same name. To make up for stealing the special Golden Trinity powers from you this round, you will have a special power next round. Please PM me your decision within 24 hours of this post.

If the Bloodstone Power is used this round, all votes will be overwritten. The Bloodstone Power can only be used by someone in the Golden Trinity.

If you have the Sapphire Power, it’s time for your hidden power to be revealed. After all votes are cast, you will be the only one to see who voted for who. Use this information wisely.

(Conversely, all contestants without the Sapphire Power will not see who voted for who. A breakdown will not be provided, given that it could reveal what the Golden Trinity decided. You’re going to have to trust I won’t rig it dd.)

[feelslikeadream]

Very interesting! Love all the "hmm, not really odd" comments throughout

And Connor sis, I know repetition is common, but this line has literally ONE lyric, which I think is odd!
