Every Day Is Night

Lowered a couple of ratings, including Arzu's! :)

Serves him right, he won’t be complaining anymore.

I was just asking.

Now would be a good time to change the ratings.

No, now many of the ratings have become much fairer, and I like them more myself.

I've never liked music videos. My ratings are based on my negative feelings towards them.

Iron Maiden - Speed Of Light - Is that Lock stealing a grandmother at the beginning of the second minute? And at the beginning of the third, is that Arandora visible behind the green glass? Too upbeat and energetic, not for me. But the video is cool - 5 | 6
BRUTTO - Середні віки - The language! Hmm, interesting... Mikhalyok can still do it, it seems - 9 | 9

TIAMAT - Whatever That Hurts - Sorry if it hurt your ears, but I can't make it any gentler x)

I initially wanted to send this video:
But then I thought that, considering my mood, I wouldn't give it more than three points myself. I would give it more points for the music, of course, but still...

Тор - наш Вася! - Heh, yeah - 3 | 3
Biting Elbows - Bad Motherfucker - Good thing I don't listen to rock and roll and don't pay for their songs - 3 | 3
Viikate - Ah, Ahtaita aikoja - I guess these Finns like Westerns? Because the video doesn't match the song. Or is it a song about the Wild West? It's unclear - 4 | 7
Richard Marx - Hazard - I'm confused about what's happening in the video. Who was making out with whom in the car? Did he drown her for cheating? (Just in case, I added a point for that). Alex, did you send this? - 4 | 5
Getter - Head Splitter - I'll probably add a point for the drug use. Or is it steampunk? Or whatever it's called? - 4 | 3
No Devotion - Stay - So, the video is about Nyssa, lol))) She hung out with the alpha males - now she can please the loser)) Well, how to please, rather troll him)) And then back to the alpha males. It doesn't matter, she'll still have to marry the loser, and he'll get what he deserves - 1 | 3
Skip The Use - Nameless World - No, we can't. But the video and song are funny - 5 | 6
Oomph! - Sex hat keine Macht - Hmm, the video isn't very good - 3 | 7
[MMD] - SIREN - No, I don't hear the voice of life, sorry. Only the rasp of death and despair - 4 | 5
Ghoultown - I Am the Night - A song about cowboys and demons? No - 4 | 4

Probably, five days is a bit too much.

Another music contest could be added.
But it was different with Nysho...

We could fit in another music contest.

Nisho was different...,

This one is also about Nisho. After hanging out with Jack, she went partying with the rider, and then with the guard. The clip is almost the same.

maiden - 6/2, I overrated it because of the music; the song and video are very cringeworthy. brutto - 3/4, harsh content, but also too derivative. tiamat - 7/6, as always with Tiamat, there's an immersive atmosphere and super-awful vocals; the video isn't boring, but it's also not for beginners. top - 1/2, mediocre; bonus points for the fact that the first part of Thor, with all its flaws, was something I enjoyed back in the day. elbows - 3/2, I've seen this video somewhere before; something similar was popular in the 2000s among teenagers; the music is on the same level. ahaha - 4/3, it's not bad, but at most it's generic music; the video is interesting, albeit somewhat unusual, but the chubby, nerdy vocalist ruins everything with his ugly presence. marx - 1/2, this music is completely not my style; a derivative and depressing video. getter - 7/8, as an expert in modern youth electronic music, I can say that the music is good, the clip is top-notch, and the video is authentic. I would have given it a higher rating if it weren't for the ugliness of the 3D people. devotion - 5/3, the music is about ten years outdated; the video is well-shot, but it's very difficult and not very interesting to empathize with the dreams of an omega. use - 5/6, it's funny, but it's a shame that it's in such a disgusting and unaesthetic style. omph - 7/8, from the preview, and after I recognized the song, I thought it was just another piece of garbage from something I don't like, but the clip surprised me with the quality of the filming and the good atmosphere, which also improved my perception of the music. I was satisfied with the "old" school style. anime - 7/6, I didn't want to overrate it just because it's anime, especially since it's so banal, but compared to much of the other stuff I've watched, it's pleasing to the eye and ear. ghoul - 7/7, during the viewing, both ratings increased from a tentative six to a seven - it's a solid composition. Honestly, the first half of the contest made me despair - it was very difficult, and there was no hope, but the second half stabilized things, and the good closing track left a rather pleasant impression of the stage.

Didn't listen, but I want to vote. Everyone gets a three, and Revan gets a ten!

just kidding

Did he drown her for betrayal? (Just in case, I added a point for that).

He ran away and lost his scarf (it got caught on a branch), and someone else strangled him with the scarf and drowned him. Most likely, it was the sheriff who had been following them. There aren't really any other candidates.

Iron Maiden - Speed Of Light (Official Video) — 2 (the band's name is fitting; you could definitely torture someone with a song like this)|4 (references for the sake of references, not great)
BRUTTO - Середні віки (“The Dark Ages”) [Official Music Video] — 4 (I'm too lazy to Google the lyrics, and it doesn't really appeal to me; the song is also longer than the five minutes allowed by the rules)|3 (not a fan of this kind of music)
TIAMAT - Whatever That Hurts (OFFICIAL VIDEO) — 3 (sounds a bit boring, and I didn't Google the lyrics again)|2 (not a fan of music videos, half of which consist of the singer's face, sorry)
Тор - наш Вася!))) — 5 (a funny song, but nothing more)|5 (I think I've seen this video somewhere before, but it's still funny)
Biting Elbows - 'Bad Motherfucker' Official Music Video — 1 (a bad soundtrack)|3 (it feels very amateurish)
ah ahtaita aikoja karaoke — 5 (mediocre)|5 (the video isn't great, but there's something charming about it)
Richard Marx - Hazard — 7 (I'm not sure I'd listen to something like this, but it works well with the video)|8 (one of the best videos in this contest)
Getter - Head Splitter (Official Music Video) — 1 (not my thing)|3 (the video isn't for me either)
No Devotion - Stay (Music Video) — 3 (a boring, generic song)|2 (and the video is kind of silly)
Skip The Use - Nameless World — 7 (the beginning of the song was a bit off-putting, but it picked up later)|8 (a typical quest from an expedition)
Oomph! - Sex hat keine Macht — 4 (generic)|3 (50% of the video is the singer's face, 30% is an erotic woman, 20% is a simple plot, although the ending is funny)
[MMD] - SIREN - Music Video — 4 (a typical opening from the 2000s)|(the animations look awkward, which is typical for these kinds of videos, and the model and voice don't match well)
Ghoultown "I Am the Night" [OFFICIAL VIDEO] — 5 (frankly mediocre, but catchy)|3 (a mediocre plot and a lot of "noise" with the band members)

Sesame

I guess I'll be appearing rarely, so don't expect anything. But I'll check out the songs now.

1 . Iron Maiden - Speed Of Light (Official Video) - 5 / 4 - The music is good, even though I don't listen to this kind of music much anymore. The video might have looked good before, but now it's just so-so.
2 . BRUTTO - Середні віки (“The Dark Ages”) [Official Music Video] - 8 / 5 - They sing well, and the lyrics are good. Better than average for Ukrainian music.
3 . TIAMAT - Whatever That Hurts (OFFICIAL VIDEO) - 5 / 5 - 50/50
4 . Тор - наш Вася!))) - 4 / 5 - It's cool, but there are too many borrowings in the lyrics and the video. Although, judging by everything, the video is a fan-made one (so I'll give it an extra point for that).
5 . Biting Elbows - 'Bad Motherfucker' Official Music Video - 8 / 1 - It's a fun song, but watching the meaningless chaos was boring.
6 . ah ahtaita aikoja karaoke - 7 / 5 - It probably sounds better than average because of the Spanish (or is it Portuguese?).
7 . Richard Marx - Hazard - 6 / 6 - It's a good song, but I'm a little tired of it.
8 . Getter - Head Splitter (Official Music Video) - 10 / 6 - Classic acid video with the same kind of music, but the music is pleasant.
9 . No Devotion - Stay (Music Video) - 4 / 4 - Again, something boring about love. Lately, I've been watching too much Bollywood (not by choice), so I'll soon get sick of these kinds of plots. Sorry, Aretz. Although this is still better than 90% of Bollywood stories.
10 . Skip The Use - Nameless World - 10 / 10 - Well, it's not bad.
11 . Oomph! - Sex hat keine Macht - 6 / 6 - Extra point for the video because I didn't have to Google the lyrics; it's clear what it's about.
12 . [MMD] - SIREN - Music Video - 8 / 7 - I didn't understand the ending, but overall it's a pleasant composition.
13 . Ghoultown "I Am the Night" [OFFICIAL VIDEO] - 7 / 7 - Also not bad.

Probably five days is too much.

How about starting the masquerade earlier, without summing up the results of the videos? Because you need to catch inspiration to identify everyone, and you might not be able to do it in three days. Unless, of course, everyone who wants to has already sent in their masks.

Not a bad idea, but it’s a bit too late for that now.

Iron Maiden - Speed Of Light (Official Video) — I liked the references to the games, but the song is boring. 3/8
BRUTTO - Середні віки (“The Dark Ages”) [Official Music Video] — it's nothing special. 3/4
TIAMAT - Whatever That Hurts (OFFICIAL VIDEO) — the song unexpectedly turned out to be good, but I would have liked a more meaningful video. 7/5
Biting Elbows - 'Bad Motherfucker' Official Music Video — it's supposed to be action-packed, but it's not very good. 3/4
ah ahtaita aikoja karaoke — I didn't understand anything. 4/4
Richard Marx - Hazard — boring again. 4/3
Getter - Head Splitter (Official Music Video) — wtf 2/1
No Devotion - Stay (Music Video) — it's all a bit weak. 4/3
Skip The Use - Nameless World — I liked the cartoon, but I tried not to listen to the song. 2/8
Oomph! - Sex hat keine Macht — the video is good, but the song isn't. 2/5
[MMD] - SIREN - Music Video — I might have rated it higher if I were an anime fan, but it's not for me. 4/4
Ghoultown "I Am the Night" [OFFICIAL VIDEO] — but this is good. 8/7

I expected it to be better, but unfortunately, only two songs were good... :smile32:
