Re: New Acadia - NSC 77 - Neon Trees - Everybody Talks

Kay, so I'm instead going to give you guys a choice of song, as I usually like to do ^.^

Here are the songs:


Neon Trees - Everybody Talks

Art vs. Science - Parlez-vous Français?

The Deer Tracks - Ram Ram

The song with the best comments will be the song I pick ^.^ If you think none of the songs are good, I'd appreciate the honesty ;)

Re: New Acadia - NSC 77 - A Three Song NF.

Parlez-Vous Francais is terrible, the other two songs are both pretty good but I prefer the third one by a bit. :p

Re: New Acadia - NSC 77 - A Three Song NF.

Parlez-Vous Francais is amazing!!! It reminds me of Summer 2009/10 when it was on the radio all the time here :lol: I don't have my headphones right now but I'll check out the other two later for sure :D And thanks for your votes that put me 15th in the list! It also feels great to be your 9th highest voter!

Re: New Acadia - NSC 77 - A Three Song NF.

Everybody talks is one of those quite strong songs which lack something special. After first listening, I think it was the best out of the 3? But it has no grower effect whatsoever, so would most likely get like 5-8 points from me in nsc.

Parlez-vous Français? - well at first is seemed to be quite bad, but then the refrain kicked in with the imo slightly out of tune vocals, which is really cool. Basically that song definitely is a grower and already managed to get stuck in my head so it would get high points from me in nsc. However it kinda seems to me to be one of the songs which can quickly lose all of the coolness after a certain number of listening.

Ram ram - well quite good, might get haunting and would most likely get points from me in nsc. Has 1 superwoog place where they use Swedish? Requires most likely a bit too many listening to reach it woogness peak for nsc, but if it reaches it, it would surpass the other 2.

So in short i wouldn't pick the 1st song. The 2nd song is currently slightly wooger than 3rd one, but the 3rd one has slightly more potential than the 2nd one to grow überwoog.
