This was...lackluster. I guess it's par for the course that several excellent weeks have to be followed by a thoroughly underwhelming variety. On the plus side, it was quite easy to pluck the best three tracks out of the crowd. I'll forgo most of the commentary; if your nomination earned points, then I saved it to my hard drive.
3 Points: Rage of the Dragons Original Arrange Album - Cheer Up! 2 Points: pop'n music 10 AC & CS pop'n music 8 - Atlantic Spotted Dolphin 1 Point: FRONT MISSION ONLINE Original Soundtrack - Arena "Cheer Up!" is easily the shining star, a welcome oasis of fun and energy in a dry desert. Even if the competition were fiercer, I probably would've given it multiple points just for possessing a very different and refreshing style from what we typically get in SotW. Here's hoping for its success! Jam it back in, in the dark. |

Okay, I have a question about eligibility.
Let's say that there's a rather popular NES game, one whose music is fairly known. For argument's sake, let's use Kirby's Adventure. Now let's say there was an unused track in Kirby's Adventure. You could play though the game 1,000 times and never hear it once. Furthermore, let's say there was an official arranged album for Kirby's Adventure that contained an arrangement of the unused track. Now, after all that, would the obscurity requirements be met? Yes, the source material is well-recognized, but the track wouldn't be immediately recognized, and even less so here for being an arrangement. Surely that would be obscure enough, right? Thumbs up? Thumbs down? Opinions? Most amazing jew boots |

Very disappointed, I am. It saddens me that an excellent track like "Cheer Up!" was more or less passed over because some people just weren't in the mood.
Really. As far as uniqueness goes, it was quite different than most SotW nominations and deserved some recognition for that fact alone. It was also very upbeat and fun. I know some participants have a grudge against music that makes them feel happy, but shame on everyone for letting this gemstone slip through the cracks. "Cheer Up!" deserved far better than a measly sixth place. Whoever nominated it should at least take solace in the fact that I enjoy the track tremendously. Most amazing jew boots |
