A Song For Moopy - SARDVISION 2026. The SONG REVEAL thread - tonight at 8pm!

[Kate]

Someone sent ROBIN S? What the everliving fuck If you CAN'T BE ARSED just DON'T ENTER! (like me)

 

[Pingu]

Can I give minus points to Robin S?

 

[ZenGiraffe]

Song 6 - SUMMER FLINGS - Jack Jarryd - "Call It Off"

Definitely, I thought it was fun. I liked the beat.

Song 7 - SWIMMING AU NATURALE - Debbii Dawson - "Gut Feelings"

Love this! My only criticism is WHY ISN'T IT IN GERMAN

Song 8 - TURKMENISTAN GOLDEN STATUES - Myahri - "Aýterek-Günterek"

She had the world's cheapest synthesizer AND A DREAM!

Song 9 - BIG ARSE MOTHS - Jolin Tsai - "Medusa"

I have heard this before, and naturally love it. ASIAVISION TAIPEI 2027 PLEASE

Song 10 - VIEWS IN PARK - Etta Marcus - "Teenage Messiah"

HATEFUL.

 

[ZenGiraffe]

Song 11 - SUMMER SOLSTICE - METTE - "COMING OF AGE"

Undeniably competent, but it isn't sparking joy

Song 12 - PETRICHOR - Amalie Holt Kleive - "Sier Ingenting"

Love the production on this so much! Vocal is a tad annoying, but I am sure it will grow on me.

Song 13 - SKINNY DIPPING - Mariana Katsimicha - "To Vals Ton Oneiron"

The best bit of this was the KASETA indent at the start.

Song 14 - FUN WITH FRIENDS - Ray Volpe & Headex - "BrAindEAD"

This is a BIT OF ME (derogatory, sadly)

Song 15 - A MODEST SUNDAE - Bob Moses - "Broken Belief"

 

[Sardonicus]

That Bob Moses song reminded me a lot of the 1996 hit Pepper by The Butthole Surfers (tagging @octophone here as I don't think anyone would have expected a Butthole Surfers reference in an ASFM thread)

 

[ZenGiraffe]

Song 16 - ICE CREAM - Milja & The Milky Way - "Maybe I'm The Problem"

This is doing nothing for me, but it isn't offensive either.

Song 17 - PLANTS BEING CUNTS - SOLITARY EXPERIMENTS - "Brace Yourself!"

Is this the most Germanic ASFM we've ever had? Not at all the sound I was expecting, I thought it would be more BASEMENT OF THE EAGLE, but I am enjoying the middle aged gays expressing themselves earnestly (for two minutes too long )

Song 18 - SHORTS - GEMINI RISING - "The Future"

This was good, if unremarkable. Might pick up a couple of points from me.

Song 19 - OUT OF OFFICE - Bic Runga - "Red Sunset"

This felt like it dragged, despite being a sensible 3:20 in length.

Song 20 - BEER GARDENS - Natasha Thomas - "Save Your Kisses For Me"

Very OF ITS TIME, but better than Brotherhood of Man at least.

 

[ZenGiraffe]

Song 21 - HERITAGE SITES - Henry VIII & The King's Singers - "Pastime With Good Company"

Wait...

Fully here for A MADRIGAL FOR MOOPY

Song 22 - CHIPS OUTSIDE - Ricochet - "In Car Stereo"

Not a correct note to be found in this entire performance Which is even more impressive given that it is lipsynced to the studio recording!?

Song 23 - SKIES OF BLUE - E-Craig - "Home (212 Vocal Mix)"

"Vocal mix". WHERE ARE THEY THEN?

Oh, four minutes in, sure. Don't hate this at all though, though would obviously be improved considerably by getting Enya's sister to sing on it instead.

 

[Kala]

Have made my first cut after one listen, I'll gradually narrow it down slowly. I'm never sure whether it's better to vote on first impressions or have a decent play of the songs as there are growers, and there are showers.

 

[Sardonicus]

This playlist definitely changed up for me after a few listens.

 

[ButterTart]

Oh hi, I'm just back from doing important work for UNICEF in (Google shit places where poors are. remember to delete this) Doncaster.

Sadly, while I was over there I developed a devastating allergy to songs that peaked at number 6 on the UK hit parade (I needed to be resuscitated after they played Birdhouse In Your Soul on their poor people radio). Fortunately, this is Mopsyvisions so I'm sure I have NOTHING to worry about on that front.

Let's away.

 

[ButterTart]

1. Kelly off the Destiny's Child

Wasn't expecting a housey little effort from Lesbian's Child, but I'm not against it.

 

[ButterTart]

Released five years ago and not yet at a million views. Michelle WISHES she could do these numbers.

Sadly, like the careers of everyone from Destiny's Child who chose not to slaughter newborns in exchange for success, this kind of went nowhere.

 

[ButterTart]

2. Ovary Cockring

From the thumbnail alone, this looked like generic Moopyvision fodder. The opening thirty seconds have confirmed these suspicions. How the fuck do you people keep finding these things?

 

[ButterTart]

2. Ovary Cockring

Fuck off you negative fat shit, the chorus actually slaps.

 

[ButterTart]

Proper lesleyfest these first two songs.

 

[ButterTart]

It's like I said to that guy with the squint who looked like a paedophile on the train earlier; you should never judge something on first glance.

 

[ButterTart]

3. France Gall

Did they even HAVE bangers in 1968? Every performance in those days was just varying speeds of someone shimmying on the spot.

 

[ButterTart]

The unimpressed Europeans at 1:11 are superb.

Also, are parts of this just lifted from 8 Days A Week?

 

[ButterTart]

Is her hayfever giving her gip or did someone kick her in the eyes before she went on stage?

 

[ButterTart]

4. Nodesha

She never needs to buy butter, this one - she just rubs her face on the toast.

This is good fun in an early 2000s way but it all feels VERY low key.

 

[ButterTart]

5. Robins

I recognise this one from Now That's What I Call Music For Tampon Adverts

 

[ButterTart]

6. Jack Jarryd

He's on a hiding to nothing eating pasta in a light shirt.

I actually like the verses more than the chorus here - they feel like they they're building to something but it all goes a bit Maroon 5.

 

[ButterTart]

7. Debbii Dean from Hollyoaks

This one started like Run With Us off The Raccoons. It has my attention.

 

[ButterTart]

It's now turned into Jump (For My Love).

 

[ButterTart]

8. Myahri

I'd have put CONSIDERABLE money on this already having turned up in a contest. I've had it on my playlist for years, so there must be a reason I've never thought to actually send it. Obvious BANGER.

 

[ButterTart]

The jumpscare arrival of the Middle East toot horn thing at 2:10.

 

[ButterTart]

9. Jolene Sigh

I see we're in the foreign legacybangers portion of the playlist. I'm not complaining.

 

[ButterTart]

10. Etta Marcus

My stars, that's quite the... challenging face to pull off in profile.

 

[ButterTart]

She's got a stunning voice but I'm waiting for the banger part to happen.

 

[Sardonicus]

So glad you're back.

 

[ButterTart]

11. METTE

Okay, this one has an immediate pulse. To think I listened to eleven minutes of Cyrano de Bergerac in the vain hope of a beat, only for this one to fully complete the assignment in the opening seconds.

 

[ButterTart]

So glad you're back.

I've had a demented few days. I kept meaning to do a listen and falling asleep instead.

 

[ButterTart]

Yeah, this one's great and the most obvious winner (that isn't already a legendary dance megahit) so far.

 

[ButterTart]

12. Amyl Holtkleev

I almost wish there were no vocals because I'm really enjoying the production.

 

[ButterTart]

13. Marina Saltsimicha

There's a donk coming, I can just feel it...

 

[ButterTart]

Come on, little donk. Just pop your head through the door at least.

 

[ButterTart]

Donkblocked

 

[ButterTart]

14. Ray Von

Now THIS is what I dropped a pill an hour ago for

 

[ButterTart]

Basic filth with no artistic merit. EVERY ONE OF THE FUCKING FOOD GROUPS

 

[ButterTart]

15. Bob Moses

Five seconds into this song and I'm fingering @Kate @Indie or @dmlaw
