Top Album Tracks • From Each Album
Interesting - mine personally: DNA - Always Be Together (they got this one right, always found it so overlooked and yes it is cheesy but it’s so great) Salute - These Four Walls Get Weird - Weird People Glory Days - Is Your Love Enough LM5 - Monster In Me Confetti - Not A Pop Song (as it stands anyway)

Lorde Rate ● Pure Melodrama RESULTS
Buzzcut Season is absolutely p e r f e c t and I'm sad to see it not make the top 10 but her discography is hardly flawed. White Teeth Teens is way too low though.

2 years on: Close to Me
On paper I wouldn't have put it down as her best song, but it so, so is for me. It's stunning :wub:

Pokemon Sword & Shield
On the whole I agree that this is more fun and appealing than Isle of Armour but again, quite a short storyline, no? Great to see the returning Pokemon though and Dynamax Adventures is a fun concept and will be making use of that to get some older legendaries and hunt for shinies (1/100 if you have a shiny charm!!), shame the Pokemon they give you to go through with are pretty poor. Regidrago is such a mixed bag for me out of the new additions - it has a fantastic design and a great ability that pairs well with Dragon Energy and yet learns hardly any special moves to make a proper set with it? Its stat spread is a bit odd too.

Lorde Rate ● Pure Melodrama
10 // Tennis Court 08 // 400 Lux 10 // Royals 10 // Ribs 10 // Buzzcut Season (would be another 11 if it weren't for Green Light, such a stunning song) 10 // Team 09 // Glory And Gore 08 // Still Sane 10 // White Teeth Teens 08 // A World Alone - 07 // No Better 08 // Bravado 07 // Million Dollar Bills 07 // The Love Club 08 // Biting Down 06 // Swingin Party 11 // Green Light 08 // Sober 10 // Homemade Dynamite 10 // The Louvre 10 // Liability 09 // Hard Feelings/Loveless (just for Hard Feelings though, Loveless would be the worst song on the album) 07 // Sober II (Melodrama) 08 // Writer In The Dark 08 // Supercut 09 // Liability (Reprise) 10 // Perfect Places - 08 // Yellow Flicker Beat 08 // Everybody Wants to Rule the World 06 // Ladder Song 06 // Flicker (Kanye West Rework) 07 // Meltdown (Stromae featuring Pusha T, Q-Tip, Haim and Lorde) 06 // Easy (Switch Screens) [son Lux featuring Lorde] 10 // Magnets [Disclosure featuring Lorde] Albums Pure Heroine or Melodrama Both albums are outstanding but Pure Heroine is definitely one of my favourite albums ever, SUCH an incredible debut.

Talk That Talk Survivor - 2020 Round 5!
Roc Me Out should have been top 3, it's such a bop even if it is slightly outclassed by Rude Boy in terms of sound. Farewell and Talk That Talk next.

The Great British Bake Off • Series 11
DILF Mark getting star baker :wub: he’s so likeable and genuinely good but always slightly missed the mark on something so I’m happy to see him win this week. Sad to see Sura go as I’ve loved her cynicism and she’s been really good up until this week, although I’m happier to see Lottie stay as there’s just as much potential I find and she’s so entertaining to boot. Her and Mark are definitely my faves left (although Sura was third).

Talk That Talk Survivor - Round 4!
This. At the time of release I found the whole song unlistenable because of Jay’s verse. I can look past it now but it still takes it down.

Talk That Talk Survivor - Round 4!
We All Want Love and Farewell for me - once those and Talk That Talk are out then the best songs remain. Going well so far though!

The Hit List
Big congrats to BuzzJack’s very own Spiral and his partner who was just on there and won! Very happy for them both! I have my eyes peeled on application castings for this for me and my sister, we’ve been itching to take part!

Ava Max - Heaven & Hell
05 // H.E.A.V.E.N. 09 // Kings & Queens 09 // Naked 11 // Tattoo 09 // OMG What's Happening 09 // Call Me Tonight 10 // Born To The Night 10 // Torn 09 // Take You To Hell 10 // Who's Laughing Now 07 // Belladonna 07 // Rumors 08 // So Am I 07 // Salt 10 // Sweet But Psycho For real this is SUCH a serve and I didn't expect it! I thought it would be another case of the many songs we'd heard pre-release would be the highlights as less successful pop singers like her generally do, but my god Tattoo and Born To The Night SLAP.

Hollyoaks
I really find myself warming to Juliet recently, Niamh Blackshaw's acting still isn't quite there yet but the coming to terms with her sexuality but still keeping Sid close and the romance with Peri is so interesting. I can't help but root for her now. Victor's acting though, jesus... wooden doesn't cover it :manson:

Talk That Talk - Album Survivor 2020
Cockiness and Red Lipstick get my votes although wouldn't be sad to see Birthday Cake go too, all three are easily the worst on what is actually a decent and overlooked album.

Brightest Blue // First Impressions Rate Results
Close To Me is her best song for me, still sounds so fresh even after her releasing a fair bit of new material since, shame it couldn't even go top 5. Rooting for Power to do it now, second best song on the album. I do enjoy Flux and The Love I'm Given, but I can't help but feel like they're outclassed by other songs on the album which have already crashed out.

SCARLETT BOBO DID THAT!!! I'm happy Priynaka won and all but THAT lipsync!! The moment the song was revealed I was already gassed but Scarlett delivered EXACTLY what I wanted from that, absolutely perfect.- Brightest Blue // First Impressions Rate Results
I knew Bleach would crash out earlyish which is a shame, I loved it straight away!- Hollyoaks
- Jessie J VS Pixie Lott: The Rate RESULTS
Best possible winner with Cry Me Out, such a fantastic song, stood the test of time better than a lot of Pixie's songs did, although I much prefer her to Jessie on the whole anyway. Also echo the sentiments that Thunder should have finished way higher - Jessie's best song by miles, then again I guess it's the people who gave it 5s and 6s that are staying silent.- Heart Beat Rock vs Too Much
Too Much is a bop, doesn't get the credit it deserves, my favourite non-single track on Aphrodite. Heart Beat Rock however is a lowlight on X, so this is an easy one for me.- Brightest Blue // First Impressions Rate Results
I know WAM isn't for everyone as I hated it too when I first heard it but my god did it grow, such a bop.- Jessie J VS Pixie Lott: The Rate RESULTS
Jessie J 07 // Do It Like A Dude 08 // Price Tag (ft. B.o.B) 07 // Nobody's Perfect -1 // Who's Laughing Now 08 // Domino 08 // Who You Are 08 // LaserLight (ft.

Shaggy) - music video is funny at least features: 10 // Bright Lights (with Tinchy Stryder) 04 // I Love Your Smile (with Colgate and The Great British Public) - 4 points for humour only Yeah Pixie wins here easily.- Cardi B feat. Megan Thee Stallion - WAP
Unsurprisingly terrible but with both artists involved how could I be shocked (although Cardi can have *some* decent moments, this is not one of them).- Pokemon Sword & Shield
That is incredible :lol: this is the thing, Cinderace is hard to counter... with the generic OU options. Think outside the box and the idiots using them get so shocked when they come crumbling down, was actually disappointed that my Libero Runerigus didn't attract a salty reaction!- RuPaul's Drag Race: Season 1 ● rank the queens
