Posts from I would like to see the persimmon tree. Auto-translated

-35 hours

Notre Dame de Paris Lune — 6. I'm not a fan of this kind of music, but I must admit that it's well-executed.
Zero no Kiseki Evolution OST - Feelings Crushed... — 7. The transitions are a bit strange, but overall it's not bad, and it conveys the right mood.
Ayunga (阿云嘎) - 【Nie Mingjue & Nie Huai Sang】 Qinghe Jue (清河诀) Official OST Ver. Fatal Journey — 5. The lines from the movie in the middle of the song are jarring. Maybe it fits the movie, but on its own, it's only remarkable for its language, which is rarely a plus.
Judas Priest - Beginning of the End (Audio) — 8. There's nothing particularly special about it, but I enjoyed it.
Chamber of Reflection — 3. It might be melancholic, but I didn't like the lyrics or the performance, and the music isn't impressive either.
Lana Del Rey - Ultraviolence — 5. I only like one of her songs, "Summer Sadness," the rest are just... meh.
Маша Badda Boo - Луна — 6. It's listenable, but it doesn't really fit the melancholic theme.
The Only Thing I Know For Real Piano Version (No Vocals) — 6. It's unremarkable, but it seems to fit.
Sewerslvt - Mr. Kill Myself — 4. The length is... quite something. The beginning can be stretched to fit the melancholic theme, but later it vaguely reminds me of background music from old Quake or Unreal, which is definitely not what I'm looking for.
Tamino - Indigo Night — 4. It started well, but then it went downhill.
Type O Negative Angel — 10. 🥳
Canon in D (Pachelbel) - Viola & Piano — 5. 😴 I got bored

It was difficult, but I forced myself to do it.

Notre Dame de Paris Lune — I diligently searched through the studio versions, but the attempt was unsuccessful. I love songs from many musicals in live performances (for example, even some parts from Dracula with the French, portly Kirkorov and Ponasyenkov were enjoyable at one point, although the musical itself is just mediocre), but I just can't stand studio versions. Unless there are a couple of exceptions, but even then, the theatrical versions are better.

Zero no Kiseki Evolution OST - Feelings Crushed... — 3, not bad, but it doesn't fit my vision of melancholic music. More like a soundtrack for some location in a game.

Ayunga (阿云嘎) - 【Nie Mingjue & Nie Huai Sang】 Qinghe Jue (清河诀) Official OST Ver. Fatal Journey — 4, so-so. The vocals and music are okay, but it's not melancholic enough for me. The aggressive shouts in the middle of the song ruined the whole impression, hence the minus one point.

Judas Priest - Beginning of the End (Audio) — 8, my favorite in this selection, hence +1 point. In general, I'm not a big fan of Judas Priest, but I admit they are cool.

Chamber of Reflection — 4, it's just not to my taste. I won't listen to this when I'm feeling down, but it didn't make my ears bleed either.

Lana Del Rey – Ultraviolence — 1, and here I felt bad just from seeing the track in the list. I regret wasting the time… Next time, please send artists who can sing, or at least instrumentals.

Masha Badda Boo - Luna — 4, the artist seems to have problems with diction, although it doesn't make my ears bleed. Just not my cup of tea.

The Only Thing I Know For Real Piano Version (No Vocals) — 3, at the same level as the anime game soundtrack above.

Sewerslvt - Mr. Kill Myself — 1, I felt bad as soon as I saw the timing. In general, there's no melancholy here, especially from the screams of Asian girls; I didn't appreciate the prank.

Tamino - Indigo Night — 4, I heard this track a long time ago, but it didn't make it to my playlist because I didn't like it. But at least it matches the mood, so I added 1 point.

Type O Negative Angel — 2, not my thing, but it's depressing, so +1 point for matching the theme.

Canon in D (Pachelbel) - Viola & Piano — 3, at the same level as the anime game soundtrack above x2.

Enya - Echoes In Rain (Official Lyric Video) — 3, "New Day," "Alleluia" are the opposites of melancholic and depressing in general. I'm not a fan of Enya, but this is objectively not the worst thing in the list.

about an anime game

In the context of the post above, it sounds like a musical synonym for "dummies." 😔

A longing for the anime doll.

And where are the results for the sad ones...?

Notre Dame de Paris Lune - the emotions slightly interfere with the melancholy. Overall, it fits, but 6/10. Zero no Kiseki Evolution OST - Feelings Crushed... - I understand that the title is "Feelings Crushed," but this music could be used for a scene where the hero is riding across a field, contemplatively observing the beautiful landscape around him. I listened to it a couple of times, and I liked it more the second time. I confirm that it fits the theme, 7/10. But recently, there was a track from Ao no Kiseki OST, and another from Kuro no Kiseki OST (both of which I have saved) - is this from the same theme, or are the coincidences random? Ayunga (阿云嘎) - 【Nie Mingjue & Nie Huai Sang】 Qinghe Jue (清河诀) Official OST Ver. Fatal Journey - this is not background music, but rather a full-fledged, emotional piece. I lowered the score by 1 point due to the dialogues in the video. 5/10. Judas Priest - Beginning of the End (Audio) - this fits, although I don't like it very much, 7/10. Lana Del Rey - Ultraviolence - I barely made it to the end. I'm not a fan of the artist; it seems like all her songs are the same. No, I wouldn't be able to indulge in melancholic thoughts while listening to this; it would make me want to turn it off. 3/10. Masha Badda Boo - Luna - no, the lyrics are too interesting for melancholy. You simply listen to the song with interest, instead of reflecting on yourself. - 5/10. The Only Thing I Know For Real Piano Version (No Vocals) - 10/10. Sewerslvt - Mr. Kill Myself - meh. It's not at all what I was looking for. 1/10. Tamino - Indigo Night - I don't remember anything about it, 3/10. Type O Negative Angel - I respect it. 7/10. Canon in D (Pachelbel) - Viola & Piano - it doesn't evoke melancholy, although the melody is good. 3/10. Enya - Echoes In Rain (Official Lyric Video) - yes, this is exactly what I need. 9/10

Plokhish — 7 Well, this is a decent entry, unlike those pretentious ones from the previous contest. The acting, costumes, and lowbrow humor are all good, and there's a bit of morality, even if it's not very profound.
Hieroglyphs and Immorality — 3 There's no Sarah here. And what's with the body in the background? Six points for the smile, minus one for the extra body.
Pretentious Ones — 2 Again, it's pointless, pretentious, and deals with casual problems. It's not relatable, and there's no morality.
Doctor — 2 Not for everyone.
Immorality — 3 Camwhore is worse than war crimes, cannibalism, and communism, and she's also overweight. The tattoos are awful. 1 point for the image + 1 for the face + 1 for the overall impression.
Gnome — 5 Something about a nuclear explosion, so I'll give it a 5.
Tetris — 7 Schizophrenic, but I smiled inwardly.
Cat — 5
Debt — 5 This isn't a game or a joke.
Bus — 3 Realism?..
Tragedy — 2 Not funny, even though there are so many good memes/AI songs/gachi montages based on this movie...
Frodo — 6 Okay, it's dramatic.

Playing a bad character isn't that fun — 4. Not relatable or funny, but closer to being watchable.
대길오빠랑 — 5. Okay + a point for the guy.
Any FromSoftware game 💀 — 3. Like the first one, but worse.
Doctor Who - Don't Blink — 5. Added points for the 10 seconds.
5feg — 4. Didn't understand.
tactical thermonuclear gnome —
Beating Tetris — 5. I don't believe it's a minute.
Cat on ice. — 10. As promised + a point because... because.
Better give me money as a loan — 3. Like the first one, but worse.
Which Seat Is the Safest on a Bus? 🤔 — 6. Not very realistic, but okay.
Biysk - I like the Christmas tree... — 8. I don't even have a Christmas tree.
The tragedy of Darth Plagueis the wise, but Anakin has already heard it — 6. It's okay.
Aragorn, "For Frodo" But He's Alone — 8. Made me smile.

short video contest - half of them are just regular videos 😐
okay, there's a person who can't scroll down a bit on Steam to find the right block, but what about the others? On YouTube, you don't even need to scroll; they are partially visible at the bottom, so you just need to browse (or find the right one on the channel).

He's looking for an excuse to give lower scores to his competitors.

Unfortunately, there's no need to lower expectations here.

Type O Negative Angel

I suddenly realized that this is the only entry from the contest that I repeatedly listen to with pleasure. I'm changing my rating to 10.

Being a villain is very easy and simple: 10, a magnificent short, lively, and simply awesome!

Anime-style dancing without anime: 10, oh yes, baby, give us more!

Your level is too low: 10, so relatable! However, a true gamer would still defeat a high-level mob instead of shamefully surrendering.

Doctor: 10, oh my god, it's the Doctor!

Crapulence: 1, comments are disabled.

Tough tactical gnome: 9, comments are enabled. Lost one point because of the previous short.

Tetris: 10, a great game, even though it's a bit different here, if I understood correctly. In general, a ten is fully deserved!

Kitty: 10, meow!

Mortal loans: 10, cool, well, it's just cool!

About the bus: 10, oh, that's relatable too. I see a bus: that means the short is based on my life. I use buses almost every day.

Christmas tree: 10, I accidentally missed it, so it deserves a solid ten.
