Ah, I'll have to remove Mortulus from the voting(((

Hardcore gamers

we’ll have to remove Mortulus from the voting.

Please do.

It’s a good thing I sent it in advance, otherwise you would have had to listen to a twenty-minute masterpiece.

The last one doesn't work.

It starts loading after about 40 seconds, but I don't know what the problem is.

Gates Of Babylon - 4
Slavic - 6
Nuclear - 5
Listen to your heart - 5
Earth angel - 4
Money - 3
Beauty - 1
Moving On - 7 (added a point for the excellent video)
Crucified - 7 (the song is good, but too well-known - deducted a couple of points for that)
House Of The Rising Sun - 8 (also deducted points for its popularity, although I personally really like this song)
Vänner och fränder - 8
Diggy Diggy Hole - 8 (no wonder I posted it in the video thread)
In the Zone - 1
Beautiful Flower Girl - 7

I listened to all the songs carefully from beginning to end without skipping, to be as objective as possible in my assessment. I copied the track titles from YouTube because I was too lazy to type them. I wrote the ratings and comments in parentheses immediately after listening to each song (sometimes while listening), so that I wouldn't get confused later.
Bound by Flame - OST - LIFE - 4 (I don't think it's terrible or bad, but I don't like it. The male wailing is just okay, it gives some kind of impression, but overall the song is very boring, so it's just so-so)
Rainbow - Gates Of Babylon - 5 (I would probably give it a four, but it's better than the first one, but overall it's a bit boring, towards the end I almost fell asleep and forgot what I was listening to. Maybe in the distant past I would have given it a little more, or maybe not, but I guess I should have just put a different song by this band here)
Divinity 2: Ego Draconis - Slavic - 6 (I was going to give it a five instead of a six, but the fact that I liked this song more than the first two, I couldn't lower its rating. And I like pleasant lyrics, so a six)
Mike Oldfield - [Nuclear] [HD] - 10 (one of the best, it left a very interesting impression, and although at first I wanted to give it a seven, then my rating gradually began to increase and towards the end it approached ten. Although I'm upset that there are many tracks from games here, don't we listen to any other music at all? However, that's not my business, but overall the song is beautiful and I'll probably save it and listen to it later.)
Roxete - Listen to you heart - 1 (Damn, I love this damn song! As soon as I saw it in the list, I planned to give it a ten. However, something inside made me turn it on, saying it's good. And I just froze. WHAT IS THIS BORING, AWFUL VERSION? I'm probably wrong and I should respect other people's opinions, but damn, the piano version (or whatever this horror is) caused me a lot of pain. I didn't know about its existence all these years. And you know what? IT'S BETTER THAT IT NEVER EXISTED IN MY LIFE. I listened to this horror to the end and I felt terrible throughout the track, but I forced myself to listen to it. It's awful, it hurts, you can't do that. Now I don't even want to listen to the original after that. And yes, if the sender of this song wants, you can give me a downvote! You have the right, damn it! But I don't recognize this abomination as a version of that great song!)
llewellyn & juliana - earth angel - 3 (boring and dull. I almost fell asleep towards the end. It's not exactly terrible, but I don't want to listen to something like that in my life and no one will make me)
Markscheider Kunst - Деньги - 4 (a stupid song, for one time in my life. If it weren't for the previous two compositions, the rating would be lower. Sometimes subjectivity does play a role)
Красавица - 1 (I'm too lazy to type the title. What the hell is this? I would give it a negative rating if Revan allowed it)
James - Moving On - 5 (the song is boring and would have gotten a lower score, only the creative video saves it)
THE ANIMALS — House Of The Rising Sun - 10 (a good song, my Lesha loves it and listens to it from time to time. I wanted to be more stingy at first, but I decided to soften up, it's one of the best in the competition, and the sender will probably be happier with such a rating)
Garmarna - Vänner och fränder - 6 (very specific. For me, it's for one time, but still better than many other compositions. The beginning just didn't like me at all)
Diggy Diggy Hole - 8 (a very entertaining song and the video amused me, despite the poor animation)
PHARAOH - В Зоне - 2 (some kind of nonsense, and with swearing. It's strange to know that someone might like it, but it's their business)
ot revana - Beautiful Flower Girl - 7 (at first I was surprised that it wasn't loading, then I read Revan's post and started waiting. In general, the song is rather average, but the chorus is very cute. And it reminded me of the times when I loved Asian music, which always seemed very cute to me. I listened to the song and my mood after all this improved a lot. Thank you, Revan, for ending it with this, the song is cute)

In conclusion, I'll say that maybe the tens in my ratings are a bit overrated and are more like 8-9, but the fact that these songs were better than the others for me says that they deserve a better rating.

Bound by Flame 6
Rainbow - Gates of Babylon 6
Divinity 2: Ego Draconis - Slavic 8
Mike Oldfield 8
Roxet - Listen to your heart 10
Markscheider Kunst - Деньги 7
System(x)failure - Красавица 5
James - Moving On 6
Army of Lovers - Crusified 6
THE ANIMALS 7
Garmarna 10 I didn't understand the words, but it sounds amazing.
Diggy Diggy Hole 9
PHARAOH - В Зоне 5
Beautiful Flower Girl Unfortunately, it didn't load.

The Shaman also didn't read Revan's post carefully...

Bound by Flame - OST - LIFE - 3. I don't like this voice, and the music isn't great either. Some parts are pleasant, like the one that starts at 2:13.
Rainbow - Gates Of Babylon - 3. I don't like the screeching vocals, and some of the instrumental parts are good, but I'm giving it a 3 because I remember this band from a previous contest. I didn't give it a lower score because there are others ahead who deserve such scores much more.
Divinity 2: Ego Draconis - Slavic - 2. Maybe I'm missing something, but for now, that's my rating. Perhaps it would sound better in English.
Mike Oldfield - [Nuclear] [HD] - 7. Oh, that Seever. I don't know where it's from, but I'm familiar with the song, especially its chorus, which is quite good.
Roxet - Listen to your heart - 6. Every dog knows this song, but they have better ones, in my opinion. Also, there's a mistake in the band's name, which usually annoys me, although not as much when the song is attributed to a completely different artist.
Llewellyn & Juliana - Earth Angel - 6. It didn't evoke any particular emotions, but it's listenable. There's a better song with that title.
Markscheider Kunst - Деньги (Money) - 4. I have a band that plays in a similar style, but with a more pleasant vocal and more interesting, diverse music. But the song is relatable.
System(x)failure - Красавица (Beauty) - 3. It's strange that this isn't the worst song of all.
Army Of Lovers - Crucified - 4. Why send something so old?
THE ANIMALS — House Of The Rising Sun - 5. I would have given it a higher score if it weren't the original.
Garmarna - Vänner och fränder - 4.
Diggy Diggy Hole - 6.
PHARAOH - В Зоне (In the Zone) - 1.
Beautiful Flower Girl - 5.

The Shaman also didn't read Revan's post carefully...

After waiting, it still says that the download failed.

Well, even if it didn't work, read the previous post more carefully.

It's better to write the names instead of the numbers.

Bound by Flame - OST - 6. Not my cup of tea, but it's decent, quite pleasant. Although, it's true that a female voice is perceived as music, especially one like this.
Divinity 2: Ego Draconis - Slavic - 5. It's nice, but somehow it's too melancholic.
Mike Oldfield - [Nuclear] - 9. Also melancholic, but much more enjoyable to listen to.
Roxet - Listen To Your Heart - 5. It's okay, but somehow I thought this song would be more upbeat.
Llewellyn & Juliana - Earth Angel - 4. I would only listen to something like this when I'm feeling really down, and even then, I'm not sure. Fans of slow songs will probably like it, though.
Markscheider Kunst - Деньги (Money) - 3. Oh, Rassilon, this is just strange. Probably funny, but very strange o_O
System(x)Failure - Красавица (Beauty) - 2. Sorry, what even was that? O_o And why is it considered to have lyrics? o_O
James - Moving On - 7. Maybe, in contrast to the two previous ones.
Army Of Lovers - Crucified - 8. The chorus is good, but overall, I don't know. It might be good with a beer, I guess.
THE ANIMALS — House Of The Rising Sun - 7. Similar to the previous one, but not as catchy, so the rating is slightly lower.
Garmarna - Vänner och fränder - 6. It's ethnic, I like it. But somehow it's monotonous.
Diggy Diggy Hole - 8. Upbeat, funny, it's okay. It somehow reminded me of Skyrim.
PHARAOH - В Зоне (In the Zone) - 2. When I find out who sent this, I'LL GIVE POINTS FOR THE SWEARING. Just kidding. But in general, it's also something very strange.
Beautiful Flower Girl - 7. Typical Revan, it's good. By the way, IT REALLY TAKES 40 SECONDS TO LOAD.

Bound by Flame - LIFE - 5/10 - The song is good, I like it, but on the other hand, there are some inexplicable elements in it that irritate me, so I chose something in the middle for the rating.
Rainbow - Gates Of Babylon - 5/10 - Not very good, not very bad, you can listen to it, or you can skip it, and it's too long, but I didn't deduct points for that.
Divinity 2: Ego Draconis - Slavic - 3/10 - Why not Aria - Black Obelisk?))) In general, Kirill Pokrovsky writes quite good tracks, as it seems to me, at least the soundtrack in Dragon Commander was just excellent, but here you can see his roots in Russian rock.
Unknown artist - Listen to your heart - 5/10 - I would have given the original a higher rating because it's more upbeat, but this version is too boring.
llewellyn & juliana - earth angel - 7/10 - Surprisingly, I liked it, although I don't really like THIS kind of music, but this particular track resonated well with me.
Markscheider Kunst - Деньги (Money) - 3/10 - My ears didn't bleed, and that's something to be thankful for. I was going to give it a 1 at first, but then I decided to save that for outright garbage. I didn't have to wait long!
Красавица (Beautiful Girl) - 1/10 - STUPID TRASH, STUPID TRASH, TRASH.
James - Moving On - 7/10 - Not bad, not bad, pleasant to listen to, moderately upbeat, moderately cool.
Army Of Lovers - Crucified - 6/10 - A decent classic track, good.
THE ANIMALS — House Of The Rising Sun - 9/10 - I love this song, and I'm not going to deduct points for its popularity.
Garmarna - Vänner och fränder - 4/10 - meh, whatever.
Diggy Diggy Hole - 4/10 - There's a cartoon in the video, the song is based on a game, the game and the lyrics are for autistic people, oh baby triple! What a great combo! But still, the song isn't without its melody, so I won't completely dismiss it.
PHARAOH - В Зоне (In the Zone) - 4/10 - A bit of a mediocre rap, but I wouldn't call it complete garbage.
Beautiful Flower Girl 6/10 - Well, since they're singing throughout the whole song, it can't be bad, right?
