SONG TOURNAMENT 28

Keep doing you, bro. I am not telling you not to do anything.

I don't care if people malign or ignore something. I like what I like and don't really care how others feel about it. I try to be open minded though because I know there's lots of good music (and movies, books, etc,) I've never heard about.

I kinda doubt it If it hasn't stuck in 30 or so years it probably never will.

I think Cradle of Filth was the most extreme of my songs so you're probably maligning the right one. Music like that isn't easy to get in especially if you don't listen to some metal or otherwise heavily distorted stuff already. Back when I was a kid it took me few years to "evolve" from traditional metal to death and black metal. Maybe you'll like stuff like that one day but more likely it'll be the same situation as with me and hip hop / rap.

Congrats SC and thank you again MoJo for hosting!

Matty Wood$ was something I came across randomly when I was working out at the gym one day and I had a Spotify hip-hop playlist going on my headphones. I'm not even remotely a fan, but I liked that song.


Anything by The Beatles is gold in my opinion. Paperback Writer is a song I've just lately had a new-found love for. And even if it is, as you say, a soulless track, it still managed to make it to the Final Four. That shows you the power of the Fab Four!

Hey @Sexy Celebrity
After doing some adding, I see there have been 92 Song Tournaments.
Do you have a guess for how many of those you didn't play in?
You've won NINETEEN Song Tournaments!

I've probably played in about 5 of these.

Was in good shape with three songs in the final eight, until f*ing pahaK came back and that pesky Ned Stark put the final nails in the coffin of my three challengers!

Good going on hosting @mojofilter and @Sexy Celebrity on another win

f*ing pahaK

I think it probably just has more to do with the fact that it's The Beatles. I don't know, but I've never really heard anybody, other than you, say they love the song. If somebody did say it in the thread, I missed it.

And my opinion doesn't really matter at all, clearly, because as you said it made it nearly to the end. I just thought it would be fun to share some thoughts.

I feel like it's probably just that haven't found something that clicked yet.. and I get it. It can be a hard art form to understand. My biggest qualm for hip hop is that maybe it is not universal enough, but then again, that's one of the things that makes it what it is. The new Pusha T album is fantastic and has a running theme of being for a very specific group of people even inside of its own community. It's a little bit ironic that it's probably his most well received album, but I digress.

I don't really know exactly which types of metal I'll be into yet, but I'm not ruling anything out. The metal I like most nowadays is probably thrashier stuff and early Sabbath. I want to take a further dive into metal at some point, but I think I am slowly dipping my toes before taking that plunge.

Hope you didn't misunderstand me there. I was not offended by your comment/opinion.

It's all good, man.


I liked reading your thoughts!

Thank you @mojofilter for hosting SONG TOURNAMENT 28!
