At 8 we have the ballad Close To You. It's a nice enough song, not one of my favourites but it went down well getting five 10's and generally high marks.

I know it probably doesn't matter to the result and you probably just put the wrong name down but I definitely didn't give 'Close To You' a 10/10. It is definitely an 8/10 kind of song, as lovely as it is.

 

This is going almost flawlessly so far (only thing I would change is if 'Higher' followed it's name and went up a few spots).

The top 7 left are perfect, hoping for a 'Kiss It Better' win. Also hope that 'Desparado' does well also.

The last 3 are actually good, some real dreck left in favour.

Next up is Desperado. It's the first song to receive more than one 11 and was VERY close to #6. I found this a bit dull at first but it clicked with me a few weeks ago and it's definitely in the top half of the album for me!

Coming just above it is Needed Me. I was surprised to see this so high initially but it didn't receive many low scores and it got quite a few high scores.

I would've placed both 'Desperado' and 'Needed Me' lower than this. 'Desperado' was one of the highlights when I first listened to the album but it wore on me. And I don't think I really get 'Needed Me'. But it's still good.

#5|Love On The Brain|

In fifth place we have Love On The Brain. This received mostly high scores with only two people rating it below a 7, and getting two 11's and ten 10's! This is one of my favourites, it was one of the only songs to click with me immediately and this placing is definitely deserved!

So the top 4 are:

Consideration (feat. SZA)
Kiss It Better
Work (feat. Drake)
Same Ol' Mistakes

This will finish this evening, any predictions?

Needed Me should've been top 3. I'm hoping for a Work win but I'm expecting it to be Kiss It Better, which would still be a great result. Amazing top 4 overall anyway!

At #4 (just half a point behind #3 :o) we have the lead single from the album Work which features Drake. I actually thought this would be a few places lower, as it does seem to have it's fair share of haters but most of them didn't vote oops

The top 3 are:

Consideration (feat. SZA)
Kiss It Better
Same Ol' Mistakes

As I said in the last post, any predictions?

Needed Me above Desperado? :puke2:

Edited April 16, 20169 yr by River Lea

Perfect Top 4. I have to say 'Desperado' is slowly growing on me so it doesn't deserve the 3.5 I gave it. :lol:

 

Top 3 will be probably be:

 

1. Kiss It Better

2. Consideration

3. Same Ol' Mistakes

 

I'm actually shocked SOM has made it into the top 3. It's very moody and understated so I didn't expect it to have many fans.

Edited April 17, 20169 yr by Scene

The fact 'Work' finished above 'Love On The Brain' actually disgusts me.

I'm glad my three 10s are in the top 3 but am hoping for Consideration to reign this rate. It's such a stand out.

Preference

1. Consideration

2. Kiss It Better

3. Same Old Mistakes

 

Predict

1. Kiss It Better

2. Same Old Mistakes

3. Consideration

Very fair results in this, no real tragedies which is rare for a Buzzjack rate.

 

I want:

01. Kiss It Better

02. Same Ol' Mistakes

03. Consideration

 

I expect:

01. Kiss It Better

02. Consideration

03. Same Ol' Mistakes

Sorry for the delay, this will finish tonight!

Opening track Consideration finishes third, just missing out on a place in the top two. This didn't receive any 11's (the highest song not to) but it got ten 10's and nine 9's and only three scores below a 7. At first this didn't really click with me but it was a real grower and I'd say it's one of my favourites on the album now!

So it's between Kiss it Better and Same Ol' Mistakes in the top two!

Edited April 21, 20169 yr by Andr00w

Good to see Work hasn't won (even with it being the main single and having the familiarity advantage). I've gotten really bored of it lately and revisiting past Rihanna singles has made me realise it really really pales next to most of them.

 

The top 3 would probably be my Anti top 3 quite easily so that's all cool.

I thought Consideration would be in the top 2 easily. :o I'm really shocked SOM has actually managed to finish in the top 2. I think it is clear Kiss It Better will win this though. It seems like a Buzzjack favourite from the scores I remember.

Excellent top two.
