Zero no Kiseki Evolution OST - Feelings Crushed... — 4. It didn't seem melancholic enough to me, and there's no vocal track either. So-so, overall.
Ayunga (阿云嘎) - 【Nie Mingjue & Nie Huai Sang】 Qinghe Jue (清河诀) Official OST Ver. Fatal Journey — 6. The song itself is good, but the sudden dialogues are frankly unnecessary.
Judas Priest - Beginning of the End (Audio) — I was thinking of submitting Never Forget or Sea Of Red, but they were too far outside the five-minute limit, even though it's not mandatory. Maybe it's for the best, because this song is the most hopeless, both in terms of lyrics and sound. I also really like the angsty Halloween track The Departed, but it's too heavy and overly dramatic in sound, rather than sad. Pumpkins aren't very good at melancholy; even their saddest songs inevitably turn into heaviness and thumping beats.
Chamber of Reflection — 7. Dude, what are you so upset about? Loneliness is such a joy; do whatever you want, no one is bothering you.
Lana Del Rey - Ultraviolence — 8. Not bad, I liked it. Very melancholic in sound, I couldn't make out the words because of the vocals, but it seems to be some kind of sentimental romance.
Маша Badda Boo - Луна — 9. Not melancholic at all, but I unexpectedly liked it. The vocalist sounds a little tipsy, but overall it's good.
The Only Thing I Know For Real Piano Version (No Vocals) — 5. The title immediately makes it clear that you shouldn't expect much from this music, but it's better than another track without vocals in this contest.
Sewerslvt — 3. The title isn't enough to consider it melancholic. Seven-minute tracks without vocals can be used to torture at least one person (me). It's not bad; I listened to it all the way through, but it didn't resonate with me.
Tamino - Indigo Night — 7. Whoa, that's deep.
Type O Negative Angel — 8. Good, but the vocals are too drowned out by the music.
Canon in D (Pachelbel) - Viola & Piano — 5. Are you kidding me, why are there so many instrumentals here? Okay, it'll do.
Enya - Echoes In Rain (Official Lyric Video) — 10. Not melancholic, but I really liked it, so let it be.
Good selection; the participants clearly know a thing or two about melancholy.
