Just from glancing at the other judges, my ratings are more similar to Dillon than Zaid, and Zune's are pretty different from all of us.

Nicole Scherzinger

Your transition to a Nicole Scherzinger was basic, towards the bottom of the pack. Your signature could have been a little more developed and you could have changed your custom title, but at least you found a nice avatar. In the future, I hope you’ll focus on making your entries unique and eye catching. Bring some personality to it! I don’t stan for Nicole but I actually do like her music quite a bit, and there were a couple of songs I was looking for in particular (Poison, Try With Me, and Jai Ho could all have been best single or best music video and been a better choice than the one you made). I do respect that you took this challenge seriously even though you don’t like Nicole, but some of your explanations and your formatting put this entry towards the bottom of the pack for me. The once choice I did love was the cover song, I would kill to hear Nicole cover My Immortal, that choice really impressed me. It’s not an obvious choice but she would absolutely kill it, live or in the studio. Bravo on that one. Next time, focus on bringing some personality to your post. I know that you are on your iPod so it’s hard, but I’ve formatted on mobile before, I know it’s possible. It may take some extra time but it will be so worth it when it comes to your longevity in this tournament!

I actually think Poison is her best track, DHYB is her second. Killer Love the song, Boomerang is not that bad, but its for sure boring after a while I agree. Wet is amazing. My Immortal could work, like she did with Try Again, although I could not really connect and see it occur. Also I saw in comparison to the others, not a lot of exposure of nicole at least within the thread.

I'm the reason you have Nicole tbh. Don't Hold Your Breath deserved so much more. It really is her best song. I don't know her discography so I can't really tell you Killer Love is for sure her best non single but it has that single feel to it. Okay, Boomerang isn't a good lead single but do you know how many horrible songs she had on her scrapped album? I LOVE the Wet music video. Great choice. Puakenikeni is a mess. I get Nicole barely a discography but it's not good at all. Nicole may have good vocals like Amy but she doesn't have what it takes to pull off that song in my opinion. The formatting is bad and I know you did it on your ipod but that can't be used as an excuse. This isn't too bad but you have some work to do if you're here next time around.

I mean it’s not terrible, just against the rest, it’s lacking. You could have actually included the clips rather than just leaving them as a note in the bottom. Overall it was schmazing

Excellent stan makeover, I especially loved that you played up the “Taylor is The Lord” thing that her stans have going on with the album links in the signature and the NP. Your formatting was basic but nice enough, and I love you for picking “Enchanted” as the beset album track because HOLY CRAP YOU ARE RIGHT! That song is perfection. She has better singles, but that one is definitely up there, and that Girls Aloud song is awful, I definitely can’t see her covering that at all, but I appreciate that you chose songs from all four of her albums, showing that you really delved into her discography. Good job!

Hi. I don't believe You Belong With Me is even a good song the GP obviously did and it's probably the first thing that comes to mind when you think of a Taylor Swift song. Enchanted is Taylor's best song period. No arguing otherwise. WANEGBT just added to the immature/***** rumors and it's a little disgusting. You had a limited choice regarding music videos but I would have gone with IKYWT followed by Back to December. I'm axtually glad you chose a song off her first album because that whole album is overlooked. You should have chosen a country song for the cover though. I enjoyed this.

I mean yes it’s not the best lyrics, but the song is catchy as hell. Your explanations were good, but your presentation was basic. Overall good work

Wonderful transition to Selena stan, I liked the quote you used and the avi/custom title/signature/NP change. The formatting of your entry was amazing, thank you for putting so much effort into it! It looks so professional and was definitely a stand out. Good choices for the playlist, especially the worst song because… oh my gosh, that was bad. Great explanations for each of them and I hope in the future you’ll continue to bring your A-game and show everyone else why you are a force to be reckoned with.

This one is awkward. Personally, I don't think LYLALS is her best single but judging by it's success, it's the general public's choice. I think Selena has better non singles than My Dilemma. I use a few. Yeah, her first album had some major duds. This one was by far the worst. Her best music video is obviously AYWR. She looks amazing in it. Sick of You can stay ignored... and I see your reasoning for the cover song being I'm Not A Girl but I can't picture this working in the end. I like that you included what you did while the challenge was going on and the formatting is nice.

Creative custom title, location, signature, and avatar. I appreciate that you took it seriously and took your time to research gifs, her music, and her stats. I was very impressed with how far you went into her discography! You covered a wide variety of her albums, old and new, and made some excellent choices with great explanations. I would LOVE to hear someone argue that Britney has a worse song than Email My Heart, but I think Britney has songs that are more underrated than Don’t Go Knocking On My Door, especially on Blackout and Circus. The choice of Like a Prayer is smart, however, I wish you’d brought your unique music taste to the table and picked a wild choice that wasn’t so obvious. Yes, Britney should totally cover Like a Prayer, but in the future, I hope you’ll take advantage of the fact that you can make some choices nobody else would know about. I also wish you had focused a little less on statistics for some of them and instead focused more about what you felt, but overall, you did a great job!

I, like many other Britney Stans, would have loved to see something from the underselling Blackout, which for me I found much more underrated, as many people still invested in Opps, I Did It Again (she got them sales, which is what Jive cared about the most). As for your change, throughout the week, seeing you avi change and Britney promo was good, I even saw the blog stanbase . Also good cover choice.

He's About To Lose Me is one of her best moments on FF but it's not near her best non single out of her whole discography. E-Mail my heart is one of the songs I do not use from Britney and that's saying something because I use basically anything by her. I'm A Slave 4 U is one of her best videos if not her best video. Don't Go Knockin' On My Door is underrated because the majority of that album is underrated. It's a very solid album. I don't know if I can see Britney singing Like A Prayer...Anyway this is more than solid in both formatting and content.

One Direction

Your transition to stan was really good and your formatting was the strongest of the bunch. I loved the introduction and think you made some really great choices. The cover song is my favorite choice… One Direction paying homage to the Backstreet Boys would be really entertaining, good choice on that one. I actually really enjoyed your best single choice, and your reasoning for all of them was top notch. In the future, I hope you’ll continue dedicating yourself this heavily to turning in entries that you are proud of. Even though you and One Direction aren’t typically associated, you still brought a lot of your personality to the entry and, overall, I was very impressed.

Oh no, disagree. I really think their best single is WMYB, but I can give you OWOA is an intresting single at best. The next two i agree with. Best Video, being a live performance I seriously think their bigger singles (One Thing, LWWY) were better videos then this. I like the cover song too

Originally posted by DillonATRL
Heyyyyy Kavish. Yeah, basically anything but this single would have worked. it's basically a cover. All the girls love Moments so I agree it's probably the general best non single. C'mon C'mon isn't anything I would define as bad. It was a bit risky choosing this as their best music video but you are right,. It's a little bit touching even to an ass like me. You say Summer Love is overlooked? I don't know if it is honestly but if it is then that's a shame it's pretty good. One Direction could easily pull of I want It That Way. You went above and beyond with your formatting which will help you a little bit in this case.

You really took what we said to heart and made us proud, I applaud you for that. Thank you for working so hard on your entry, I hope you’ll continue to do that. Great transition to stan, great formatting, great idea doing it for each album. I’ll be honest, if someone else had done it, for an artist I didn’t like, I’d have probably been exhausted after going through it. The “That Don’t Impress Me Much” gif that you used for “worst song”… flawless. NICKIMINAJ is the one to beat, y’all. I don’t know if you just did your research well or what but that is my favorite album track from Up! and it is my favorite album of all time, so I agree that there are no bad songs. Perfect choices all around except for the underrated song… the Billboard Charts were never Shania’s strength, so just because it wasn’t number 1 doesn’t mean it didn’t get success. Other than that, perfect job and I was very impressed.

For each of the albums you made a good choice all around, although Shania remains flawless. I am glad you paid dust to her biggest single You're Still The One (considering the divorse). I can say its harder to promote an artist who hasn't been huge since the early 2000's, makes me cringe a bit when you miss the impact of an artist, for me it was being too young Side tangent aside, excellent work. Oh I know why you went the extra mile, ethan stans for Shania no wonder. I think I will agree with this. DON't Judge NICKIMINAJ TOO HARD ETHAN!

Hello there. I want to know why you did the challenge 4 times technically. if you thought going above and beyond was getting you a higher score, it's not happening. I do feel like all your choices were well done and had reasoning beyond them. I don't consider Man I Feel Like a Woman to be underrated in any way. Shania could slay Jesus Take the Wheel but Queen Carrie's version is perfect. This is nicely formatted and done pretty well.

Good avi and a very informative signature, which I appreciate. See I’m not familiar with Ms. Shania Twain’s music, so I actually had to listen to your choices. Even though I appreciate when people do little things that make them standout, I would have rather seen you stick to what you have been asked to do. The purpose of this challenge was to come up with overall best single, video, etc … With that being said, I didn’t really take off any points for that. Your explanation was lacking a little. Presentation is great as usual, I mean I expect nothing less from you . Overall it was a good effort

Destiny's Child

I did not know anything about Destiny’s Child coming into your entry other than faintly recognizing a hit or two of theirs from the radio, so it’s hard for me to judge. However, I think you made some smart choices. Your transition to stan was pretty good, nice use of gifs and nice custom title, NP, and signature. I love the gif you used to open your playlist! That was perfect. For the actual playlist, most of your choices looked good to me. Like I said, I am not familiar with their work, so I had to listen to almost all of these for the first time. Good choices all around, except for maybe the underrated choice, that song does not scream hit to me, and the video. I can’t dock you too much though because I have no idea what kinds of other gems they have hidden. Okay choice for the cover song, it doesn’t sound like a song they’d sing but it would be so cool for one of the defining girl groups of our generation to cover a girl group’s song from a previous generation. Great job this round, keep up the good work!

Now as for promoting your fav, some more commitment in the thread would have been excellent since you know what to sell to people.

Hello. Say My Name isn't their best single in my opinion but it is the first one that comes to mind when I think of Destiny's Child. I don't know their non singles so you get a pass here because Through With Love may not be their best but from what I'm hearing it could be. Omg, you're giving me major nostalgic vibes with the Proud Family. However, it's kind of not their worst song even if it was a theme song. Bootylicious is a good video... in the upper tier of their videography. Girl is cute. I can picture them singing so many other songs before Baby Love. Fierce songs to be particular. The problem here is everything about this was cute. Not a standout.

Dude, you really dropped the ball on this one. If you needed an extension, you should have asked for it. The makeover was minimal (just changing the avi, not even your custom title or NP), and the formatting of your playlist was nothing. We didn’t even get the YouTube links to the songs! I agree with all of your choices, but I wish you’d gone farther into her discography; 3/5 were from her most recent album. In the future, I hope you’ll put more time into your entries and show us that you want to be in this tournament.

For believing you were a stan was not my first impression, although its hard to do that considering your username. As for you selections, I just found there were definitely more intresting songs on 4 non-single wise. As for covering Hurt, I can see it, I would have loved to see a hot track from the past a la,idk, Donna Summer, Janet, Tina Turner, etc

Quote:
Originally posted by DillonATRL
Hey. Love on Top as well as Countdown are the best on 4 but I don't think they are her best singles to date at all. I Was Here, although not my favorite non single by her, is very good I must admit. Her first album has so many songs that are worse than Videophone. Much worse at that matter. Get Me Bodied is good but not her best video. Run the World was a disappointment even if it isn't as bad as ATRL makes it out to be. Beyonce could sing Hurt vocally but not as good emotionally. Overall, this doesn't have much to offer since you didn't choose any clear answers.

Your transition to a KatyCat was very well done. I could believe that you were actually a stan and not just a recent bandwagoner. I absolutely loved the use of flowers in your custom title, signature, and entry because of Katy’s recent floral fetish. Very stan-like and original! It helps that I’m a Katy stan because I can look at the playlist and already know that I agree with almost all of your choices. Your explanations were good and it seemed well thought out. If You Can Afford me is The Hit That Got Away without a doubt, but Katy definitely has worse songs than Circle the Drain, both on One of the Boys and in her unreleased collection ( Milk Milk Lemonade anyone?), so I gotta disagree on that one. I had never heard The Other Side, but it sounds like a Teenage Dream tribute/left over that I can absolutely hear Katy doing (in the studio, she would sound terrible doing it live), so great choice. Overall, I was very impressed and think you should be proud of yourself!

Thank you for picking the best Katy Perry song. From some stans to another, people either adore E.T. to be their favorite, and some loathe its presense. I love it A LOT. As for the cover, ehhh. I mean I agree this is Katy inspired, but not in a way to cover it. I mean the references to her past song (Firework) Although I'm glad to see your avi change.

I don't think I've had any contact with you... so hello. I still feel like Teenage Dream is her best single but E.T. was very different for it's time so I can see where that choice is coming from. If You Can Afford Me is her best non single in my opinion. I like it more than some of her singles. Circle the Drain is horrible. The vocals and everything about it are so unfit for Teenage Dream. Last Friday Night was cute but I think most of the Teenage Dream videos were much better. Waking Up in Vegas is overlooked now that you say that. The Other Side is a typical pop song and no shade but that's what Katy does as well as many other pop stars so it would work although I think there were better choices. Nicely formatted and and said. You don''t have to write an essay to get a god score.

Man, it must have been super hard for you to become a Lana stan! Your makeover was spot on, good job promoting her latest stuff, and the Location is great. I’ve been slowly getting into Lana, so this was a nice sort of introduction. The playlist was good, but we needed YouTube links! It stated that in the challenge post. Ain’t nobody got time to go fishing for all these songs. I’d have let Ride be best video, but it’s still a respectable choice for best single. Amazing song. The rest of your choices were good, but your reasoning was poor. Every artist has weak moments! Tell me why you chose Lolita. The cover song was a smart choice, but not a very creative one. Lana and Nancy Sinatra are used in the same sentence all too frequently. Can’t dock you for it though because I would love to hear her cover that. In the future, focus on being more creative with your entries and speaking your mind.

Lolita is one of my least favorites but Million Dollar Man or Lucky Ones are worse in my opinion. Teenage Wasteland is so cute. I haven't heard this one before but I really like it even on the first listen which doesn't happen often with Lana. Lana could cover any type of Sinatra song. Her voice is very fitting for those types of songs. National Anthem is my personal favorite video from Lana as well. Your formatting isn't anything special but I'm not taking off points for formatting unless it is just ugly and thrown together half ass.

Similar to Destiny’s Child, I had never heard much of Ciara’s discography, which probably ended up benefitting you in the end because it’s hard for me to say “_________ would have been a better choice.” Your transition to stan was very nice, great signature, location, custom title, etc. I loved that you included an introduction in your entry, and the formatting was very well done. I wish you had included links to the songs like we had asked, but other than that, the formatting was great. Like A Surgeon wasn’t the best choice for weakest song, I am sure there are some on her albums that weren’t released as singles that were worse, especially on Fantasy Ride. Work is a great video, good choice on that, and even though I wouldn’t listen to a Ciara cover of Crazy In Love, I do think it was a good choice. In the future, keep showing us your personality in your entries and keep up the good work!

Like A Surgeon doesn't have anything that makes it bad to me? Work's music video is hot for sure. Girl can daaaaaanceeeee. Keep Dancin' On Me is cute. I really hope she has better gems though. I can see Ciara nailing a Crazy In Love cover. She has everything but the vocals but she is not a bad vocalist by any means. This is solid. Nothing less or more.

Great explanations and choices, especially “As Long As You Love Me”, which is the one Bieber song I have on my iPhone. I hope in the future you’ll keep up your strong work ethic and continue to bring it!

Love Me would be in the running. Best video, you picked a good one, but I think its Somebody to Love. btw I like the cover song itself, I think its a better direction then attempting anything but Justin Timberlake

I actually had to keep myself from liking it before I gave in since I'm not a big fan. Nothing Like Us is his best album track as we see a different side of Justin. Baby is horrible and how it propelled him to the star he is today is beyond me. There was one good music video from Believe and it was Boyfriend for sure. I use the Overboard version with Miley but both are very nice. Sorry but I can't see Justin covering that song at all. You went right for the most part. You only turned left once.

I didn’t like that you completely ignored Some Hearts and the huge songs it spawned in your playlist and that you didn’t even pick a song for her to cover. It’s important that you read the instructions again after you’ve typed up your entry to make sure you’ve done everything. Your explanations were okay, and overall that’s how I’d describe this entry… okay. One of the weaker ones. I hope in the future, you’ll work on turning in something you feel confident that we will like. You weren’t one of the ones we for sure wanted in this game, I hope we don’t end up regretting choosing you.

I think Before He Cheats is her best video followed by Blown Away.There's A Place for Us is really overrated compared to some of her other album tracks. You're missing the cover. I love the Carrie gif btw. Solid.

You have a cute signature and avi. This is another artist I’m not very familiar with, but I do know some of her hits, which you missed on including. Very shady . Your song choices were okay I guess, you used “Blown Away” twice, which I found unnecessary. And you forgot a “song they should cover”. Your explanation was okay, and your presentation was acceptable. I expected it more from you to be honest. Overall a little disappointing

Your transition to a Ke$ha stan was alright, pretty basic. Ke$ha and her stans are not all about the numbers, I don’t think a 71 on Metacritic is the most noteworthy thing you could have put in the signature, and that quote is hella stupid. Your playlist was the more impressive part of the entry, with a great banner and some really good choices. While Your Love is My Drip is not my personal favorite of Ke$ha’s singles, I can see your reasoning behind it. Ke$ha has worse songs than Dinosaur, especially on Warrior (Love Into the Light, Wonderland, hell even Dirty Love would have been better), which you seem to have completely ignored for some reason. The cover song was a smart choice, very creative and probably, for me, the highlight of your entry. I hope in the future you’ll continue to turn in entries that you’re proud of and that you’ll work on being more thorough.

Promo could have been more, I mean she just released Crazy Kids, there could have been more IMO. LOL at you paying Warrior dust tho. Best song of Ke$ha Its up there IMO, but for her craft of being a rapper and pop star, I felt Take It Off did much better. Good choices for the others

Heyyyyyyyy. YLIMD is one of my favorites from her because it has stayed fresh for me til this day. I think from Survivor we all know The Harold Song is her best album track as it was submitted 897 times. Dinosaur I secretly like but it's a bad song production wise and like you said, a mess. I love her look and the glitter in Take it Off. I LOVE Crazy Beautiful Life and it makes me so mad how it's given dust across the forum. The cover is the only part I'm iffy about because just because someone is your influence doesn't make their music suitable for you to sing.

You had an okay signature and avi. Your song choices weren’t that great. I had mixed feelings about them. I mean you talk about the critically acclaimed album “Warrior” in your signature but not include a single song from the album in your playlist? Your explanations and presentation were good. Overall it was a good effort

Your makeover was well done, I wish you’d simplified your signature a little, but otherwise, everything was good. The formatting of your playlist was really strong, the single covers were a little much but I can’t dock you for trying. Waiting for Tonight is my favorite J. Lo song, great choice on that, but Papi is #2 so I didn’t agree with that choice as much. I am sure there are songs from her obscure, pre-OTF days that are worse. That music video was amazing, I loved it. Great choice on that one, thank you for not going with the obvious ones! I can’t imagine Jennifer doing a French song like Je L'aime à Mourir like Shakira, but it was a very interesting choice that I would definitely be intrigued to hear her attempt it. Thank you for thinking outside of the box! Continue to bring your personality to your entries like you did this round and I can see you sticking around for a long time.

I actually do believe JLo is underrated on here and I also believe no one will perform like her at this age. Waiting for Tonight isn't her best single or in the Top 5 in my opinion. Invading My Mind is one of her better album tracks but not the best because it's generic. Papi is a bop so you trippin. I really do like the Flashdance references in I'm Glad but it's not her best video either. Baby I Love You is one of her better R&B songs. I don't think JLo should cover any Spanish songs. There were many other choices. This was okay but you had no definite choices where I couldn't argue differently.

Now I stan for JLO, so this was kind of hard to judge. You had a great signature, cute avi though I would have preferred a GIF rather than a still image. Your song choices are all good except Papi, BITCH PLEASE, worst single? Good *****ing BYE! Explanation was good. However, your presentation, I felt it was a little too clutter, needed better formatting. Overall it was decent

I didn't think things like signatures and avatars would be so focused on. I didn't choose any Warrior songs because I felt like most of the stuff on there doesn't represent her best or her worst work. Overall though, I'm content with how I did on a first entry.

Thanks to all the judges and I just wanted to say something to Dillion
Quote:
You had a limited choice regarding music videos but I would have gone with IKYWT followed by Back to December. I'm axtually glad you chose a song off her first album because that whole album is overlooked. You should have chosen a country song for the cover though. I enjoyed this.
|
I didn't choose IKYWT because of the WLF comparison and I didn't sent a country song for the cover because I thought that will be super predictable but oh well I did better than I expected
