The Way You Make Me FeelMichael Jackson - Guilty Pleasures - #6 - 6 points - I am torn about the many artists who turn out to hurt people. Balancing the art they create with the people they are is tough, especially as a parent trying to answer my kids’ questions when kids at school tell them about how MJ hurt kids. Yet I still love Michael’s music. This is my favorite.

I did a dance performance to a version of it in graduate school but didn't know what it was from. My role as a protective angel in the dance now takes on a different meaning!

Jason	18	21	-2	19	1.06	2024, we hardly knew you / The holidays are here. - Maybe next year… Movie Music Magic / Favorite movie title song/theme song - I wish I could dance like that Change of Pace / Stop, Wait a Minute - Great times on the dance floor! Beginnings / If At First You Don't Succeed - This was my original choice.

Zach	22	18	-3	15	0.68	Movie Music Magic / Favorite background score to a dramatic moment - I've never heard of this and the thumbnail doesn't look like a Zimmer movie. Actually I would have guessed that it was music from The Sims. Movie Music Magic / Favorite song sung by a character in a non animated movie - Started off slow but eventually I got into it. Change of Pace / Good Riddance but also I Need You Back - Not really into showtunes, but undeniably on-topic in a way that's unique on this playlist. Is there queer subtext? Well, even if it's just a breakup of a platonic friendship, some interesting lyrics. Change of Pace / Old Enough! はじめてのおつかい - A thoughtful song and artist selection, while keeping things simple. This song and lyrics will probably stick with me. Change of Pace / Horn-y - I kinda liked it but it was very much 'dad music' which set it back. Change of Pace / Not Horny Enough - Interesting choice to go with Rod Stewart instead of Alphaville. Change of Pace / Better-than-Okay Boomer - Wasn't expecting actual boomer "old man yells at cloud" songs. In their day, The Eagles walked uphill both ways in snow. Change of Pace / Stop, Wait a Minute - So good! Hey DJ! / Tongue Twists - Ella's great. Hey DJ! / Cover Me Badly - I think of this more as an acoustic cover of the classic Sundays' cover. I get why other people wouldn't like it, but I personally like all the versions. Beginnings / Debut - Not exactly a call to action, not a great pop song, but self-awareness is step one, I guess. Beginnings / If At First You Don't Succeed - I feel like there were probably better songs on this album to pick Into the Void / Fairies Wear Boots - not feeling it for this round's vibes Into the Void / Wishing Well - Always liked the dark feel even if the connection to the prompt is a little shaky Into the Void / Sweet Leaf - Karen is the new Veruca
lauryl1	17	16	-1	15	0.88	Into the Void / N.I.B. - While I do love this song, it isn’t from the villain’s perspective
Anthony Ng	18	16	-3	13	0.72
lainey3eb	22	15	-4	11	0.50	Movie Music Magic / Thriller - a song from a movie that gives you the chills - This haunting theme song has always stuck in my mind. Movie Music Magic / Favorite background score to a dramatic moment - Your pick prompted me to rewatch the movie. Forgot how good it is and I love that Jack Black’s character was a movie music composer modeled after Zimmer☺️ Change of Pace / Old Enough! はじめてのおつかい - Nice pick! She does have a great voice. Change of Pace / Stop, Wait a Minute - I have this theory that songs that get people on the dance floor at weddings are winning picks in ML. So it’s either this song or Uptown Funk and I went with the other Hey DJ! / The Big Ask - I don’t want to give this downvote because Calvin Harris was the first artist I thought about submitting for this round, but I was thinking more Calvin Harris circa 2012 😅 Hey DJ! / $@#?! - My favorite song on this playlist Hey DJ! / Cover Me Badly - I was listening to this playlist in front of our two new cats. Limp Bizkit didn’t faze them at all (the girl cat lazily rolled over), but they both went into hiding during this song. Unfortunately, they don’t know how to vote on ML (yet) and I happen to enjoy both songs 😅 Into the Void / Fairies Wear Boots - I think I like every Lana Del Rey song I’ve heard. Into the Void / Wishing Well - This is a good song but I had a harder time making a connection of how this related to the prompt Into the Void / Sweet Leaf - Nothing more satisfying than seeing a bad egg get their comeuppance
arhumphrey-us	15	13	-2	11	0.73
Taylor Kayatta	12	14	-3	11	0.92	2024, we hardly knew you / The holidays are here. - I've never liked this song. Movie Music Magic / Favorite song from a non-animated movie musical - This was my first choice, but you beat me to it. Movie Music Magic / Favorite song sung by a character in a non animated movie - This is one of the first CDs I bought!

Yorick	13	10	0	10	0.77	Movie Music Magic / Favorite song used in a romantic moment in a movie - Weirdly enjoyable, despite the crappy old school recording quality. But I guess that adds to the charm. Change of Pace / Good Riddance but also I Need You Back - Hot damn, when I saw Wicked in the list I was sure I wasn't giving it a point. But yes... The liberal interpretation of the theme is fair enough and I can't wait to see how they pull off this womance breakup in the next movie! Change of Pace / Old Enough! はじめてのおつかい - Fascinating career. Hey DJ! / Tongue Twists - Good effort on that French! Hey DJ! / Cover Me Badly - I hear nothing wrong here. Into the Void / Fairies Wear Boots - Yup, Lana belongs in this list. Into the Void / Sweet Leaf - Clever choice. They could've really used some autotune back in the day though, but I guess it adds to the vibe of a spoiled child. New beginnings / Instrumental - An interesting thing happens when I listen to instrumentals. I pick out all the seperate instruments and listen to see how all the unique sounds make the whole. For the most part this song sounded... messy? Only later did the rhythm start making sense. Seperately it sounded beautiful and technically well executed. Not sure about the whole though.
Purple Reign	12	12	-2	10	0.83
Brandon Nohara	17	11	-3	8	0.47	Change of Pace / Good Riddance but also I Need You Back - I adore the musical, but this stood out as the least matching with the theme. +2 if this was a friendship song round, though Change of Pace / Horn-y - Forgot about the horn-y greatness of this song Change of Pace / Not Horny Enough - My favorite song on the playlist. Almost gave +2, but felt the horny substitution was just a bit of a stretch, rhythm-wise Change of Pace / Better-than-Okay Boomer - New to me. Hope I can see their show at the Sphere in Las Vegas sometime Hey DJ! / Guilty Pleasures - Thanks for opening up about your feelings for MJ. Something like You Are Not Alone would feel more like a guilty pleasure, though Hey DJ! / The Big Ask - Catchy. I ran out of upvotes 🙁 Hey DJ! / Cover Me Badly - I found this version quite beautiful, so take this downvote as a compliment Beginnings / Beginnings - Hopefully Norah Jones gets more love here than my high school friends league Beginnings / If At First You Don't Succeed - Good one. I didn't realize how stacked this album was, or that it was her third Into the Void / Fairies Wear Boots - I like her and the song, but felt it didn't quite fit the theme Into the Void / Neon Knights - Classic Into the Void / Wishing Well - Somehow I never knew the artist for this New beginnings / This isn't me - I hesitate to give votes to a tribute band

Happy Lucky	1	1	0	1	1	New beginnings / This isn't me - I like his voice, and was enjoying the song until suddenly his twang sounded like a teen boy in his semi early stages of puberty when his voice has changed 90% of the time but that twang is 10%.
