November 5, 20168 yr Author Entries are closed! Idk if I'll be able to start the results tonight as I'm literally just about to go out, but they'll definitely have kicked off by tomorrow!
November 6, 20168 yr Author You've voted, and now it's time to find out how you ranked Rihanna's music videos! RESULTS BEGIN TONIGHT AT 8PM. BE THERE.
November 6, 20168 yr Author #39 | 'We Ride' | Average 4.68 (51.5 points/11 rates) jlvY1o6XKwA Highest Scorers: Andrew, Cody Slayberry (08) Atonement (07) Lowest Scorers: jakewild, blacksquare (01) Scene (02) 'We Ride flops in at #39 with a pretty low average of 4.68. I'm not a big fan of the song but I see no problem with the video tbh, it's quite good for the song although I may have been a bit generous with my score :kink:
November 6, 20168 yr I'd never even seen that video before this rate (or listened to the song very much) but both are pretty average, can't really complain at it being last. Hoping for an S&M or Rude Boy win out of the likely candidates, I'd rather have BBHMM not win really.
November 6, 20168 yr Author #38 | 'Hate That I Love You (feat. Ne-Yo)' | Average 5.14 (56.5 points/11 rates) KMOOr7GEkj8 Highest Scorers: Cody Slayberry (08.5) Sam Judd (08) Lowest Scorers: jakewild (00) blacksquare, Cremey (03) Second from bottom is the Ne-Yo collaboration 'Hate That I Love You'. Like We Ride, I thought it was a decent enough video for the song (which is kinda shet) so I gave it a 7 but most obviously disagreed with it's average only slightly above half.
November 6, 20168 yr Author #37 | 'Take A Bow' | Average 5.23 (57.5 points/11 rates) J3UjJ4wKLkg Highest Scorers: Andrew., SamJudd (09) Jonjo (08) Lowest Scorers: jakewild (00) blacksquare (01) Omg. Finishing in a dismal 37th place is the #1 hit 'Take A Bow' with another poor average of 5.23. I love the video for this, it's simple yet effective and like the song, vastly underrated! :wub:
November 7, 20168 yr Author #36 | 'FourFiveSeconds' | Average 5.59 (61.5 points/11 rates) kt0g4dWxEBo Highest Scorers: Cremey (10) Josh, Atonement (09) Lowest Scorers: jakewild (-1) mr_pmt (01) Another low finisher is the non-album single 'FourFiveSeconds'. As much bad as the song is (sorry Jonjo :kink:) the video isn't terrible and there's a few songs that should be below it tbh.
November 7, 20168 yr Author #35 | 'What Now' | Average 5.64 (62 points/11 rates) b-3BI9AspYc Highest Scorers: Josh, Atonement (09) Andrew (08) Lowest Scorers: jakewild, blacksquare, Scene (03) SamJudd, Cremey (04) Another video I doubt most people were expecting to be high, 'What Now' comes in 35th. I get it's not one of her best but I don't think it's that bad that it only beats 4 other videos. :unsure: Four more coming tonight~
November 7, 20168 yr 'Hate That I Love You' is so elegant and classy af. So undeserving of finishing that low. 'Take A Bow' does the job of selling the song perfectly imo. Also, it is gif reaction perfection. All her facial expressions are brilliant! FFS is a good enough video too. Suits the song with it's style and then 'What Now' is just pretty good. Adore the song though <3
November 7, 20168 yr '45S' and 'What Now' are both too low! 'What Now' is so trippy and is iconek just because of this moment:
November 7, 20168 yr Author #34 | 'American Oxygen' | Average 5.77 (63.5 points/11 rates) Ao8cGLIMtvg Highest Scorers: Atonement (09) Scene (08.5) Lowest Scorers: Sam Judd (02) Cremey, blacksquare (03) Dropping out is the flop single (it feels generous to call it a flop tbh :')) American Oxygen. The video for this drags a little bit but there are some very powerful moments, so I feel it's a bit underrated, not as much as the song though </3 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ #33 | 'Don't Stop The Music' | Average 5.95 (65.5 points/11 rates) yd8jh9QYfEs Highest Scorers: SamJudd (10) Andrew., Cody Slayberry (08) Lowest Scorers: jakewild (00) blacksquare, Cremey (04) Just missing out on getting an average of 6 is the GGGB single and certified f***ing banger, 'Don't Stop The Music'. Looking back I might've been a little generous with my score but it's a decent enough video, although I wouldn't put it much higher than this. Edited November 7, 20168 yr by Andrew.
November 7, 20168 yr Author #32 | 'Unfaithful' | Average 6.00 (66 points/11 rates) rp4UwPZfRis Highest Scorers: Cody Slayberry, Jonjo (09) Atonement (08) Lowest Scorers: jakewild, blacksquare (02) Cremey (04) The first video to get an average of 6 or more and finishing in 32nd place is 'Unfaithful'. The video is ok, just nothing really special tbh. There's not really much else to say about it :lol: ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- #31 | 'Shut Up And Drive' | Average 6.05 (66.5 points/11 rates) up7pvPqNkuU Highest Scorers: Scene (08.5) Andrew., Jonjo, mr_pmt (08) Lowest Scorers: jakewild (00) blacksquare, Cremey (04) Finishing off today is 'Shut Up And Drive'. I enjoy the video, not one of her best but it suits the song. I'm tired so please excuse this shit commentary
November 8, 20168 yr 'American Oxygen' deserved higher, she looks so good in that video + the concept is good. No real loss in the others though. 'Kiss It Better' still in and slaying. Yasss.
November 8, 20168 yr I ADORE the 'FourFiveSeconds' video. So well-suited to the song :heart: Happy with all the others leaving. I look like such a hater with my scores being the lowest score for most of these...I felt like I was giving out 10s all over the shop though so I'm sure soon enough I'll be within the highest scores instead, haha.
November 8, 20168 yr Author #30 | 'Kiss It Better' | Average 6.05 (66.5 points/11 rates) 49lY0HqqUVc Highest Scorers: Atonement (09) Cody Slayberry (08) Lowest Scorers: Andrew. , SamJudd (04) Jonjo, mr_pmt, Cremey (05) The first video from the ANTI era to drop out is 'Kiss It Better'. The video for this just doesn't do the song justice I feel and is one of her worst tbh. :( Given it had a pretty negative feedback on here when it premiered I thought it would be a couple places lower than this actually!
November 8, 20168 yr Author #29 | 'Pon De Replay' | Average 6.05 (66.5 points/11 rates) (more 8's and 9's) oEauWw9ZGrA Highest Scorers: Andrew., Cody Slayberry (09) SamJudd, mr_pmt (08) Lowest Scorers: jakewild (03) Jonjo, blacksquare, Cremey (04) Rihanna's very first music video 'Pon De Replay' fails to make a big impression, coming in at #29. Contrary to KIB I feel this really highlights the song and is a great video for it, should be top 20 tbh. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- #28 | 'You Da One' | Average 6.05 (66.5 points/11 rates) (more 10's) b3HeLs8Yosw Highest Scorers: Scene (10) Cody Slayberry (07.5) Lowest Scorers: jakewild (02) blacksquare (03) 'You Da One' is next. Somehow You Da One is the first video to receive a 10 but it didn't get many other high scores so still ends up with a quite low average. The video is like the song, decent but not amazing. Her hair is amazing in it tho *.*
November 9, 20168 yr Author #27 | 'If It's Lovin' That You Want' | Average 6.14 (67.5 points/11 rates) hD5MRBzY1uM Highest Scorers: Cody Slayberry (09) Josh. (08.5) Lowest Scorers: blacksquare (03) jakewild, Cremey (04) The second and final video from the 'Music Of The Sun' era 'If It's Lovin' That You Want' is next. It's pretty basic but I still find it enjoyable tbh (I'd put it a few places lower tho). -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- #26 | 'Rockstar 101' | Average 6.18 (68 points/11 rates) eMOIUUS8GWo Highest Scorers: Atonement (09) Jonjo (08.5) Lowest Scorers: jakewild (01) blacksquare (03) This song is godly. The video...less so. I don't know why but I've never really liked it very much lmao.
