The top 10 will most likely contain these songs, if I know ATRL members well enough: - Video Games
- Blue Jeans
- Born To Die
- Tightrope
- We Are Young
- 212
- Creator

Does Lana still have stans on this site? If so they're gonna be coming for me with these 1's and 0's I'm handing out to her.
Born To Die get's a 5 though if only for the "Come take a walk on the wild side, let me kiss you hard in the pouring rain, you like your girls insane" line.
I'm also loving Monae right now, she's probably gonna be my second highest rated after Best Coast.

Not sure about Creator, but you're making me want to lower my WAY score by .... a few points.

I don't want three Lana songs in the top 10. 
Maybe Blue Jeans, that's it.
Most of Azealia's stuff should make it far.
Creator is okay for Santigold's standards.
L.E.S Artistes, Say Aha, Lights Out, and Disparate Youth are much better and all deserve top 25.

All of St. Vincent's best songs weren't singles.

I will have to vote a lot more strictly, I always like to give tens to only a few songs.

Yes, but don't worry. Once everybody listens to all of these songs, I'm sure their opinions will change.
And yes, stan for one of the best bands in recent history!

Let's hope. It is one of the most worthy candidates, after all.

"Creator" was a wildcard. I'm guessing it will be between "Creator" and "L.E.S. Artistes".
Is it bad that I never even listened to "We Are Young" before this rate?

I think LES Artistes, and maybe Lights Out have the best choices. Disparate youth too.
And it's not bad, but just kinda surprising.

I agree on all points.
I really think that "L.E.S. Artistes" could make a big splash, considering many hipsters and indie fans love it.

I really hope Karmin is the first to be eliminated though. Her voice is just annoying in every possible way.

I agree. "Disparate Youth" and "L.E.S. Artistes" deserve it.
I had/have no interest in Fun. The song wasn't even all that great, to be honest.

I am expecting Lights Out to do really well too. That one seems to be loved as well.

Agreed. Too generic.

Random and slightly off topic, but am I the only one who gets Ke$ha vibes from Karmin's voice? When I first heard Karmin on the radio the other day, I legitimately thought it was Ke$ha.
I'll definitely have to give their music a second and third listen for this.

Both of their voices definitely have a piercing tone to them. The difference, for me at least, is that Karmin tries all these vocal acrobatics and they all come off as cheesy and over the top, and not in a fun/campy way.
