I can't believe I almost lost to that song.

What's the ruling on mashups? As in 2+ titles put together to make 6 words?

I don't know if dizzy would like this song, but this is an auto-podium type of song for any walrus I'm judging.

Eddie Vedder crushes this one.

Ya - if being honest I don’t think you’d ever lose that..I just thought about it way more than I would have expected.

Mashups are fine - as long as the title has 6 words in it. Someone else PMd me about words in parentheses. Those are fine too. Only thing that would not count is “featuring X, etc” as that is in the Artist name not song title.

Just make sure if you are submitting a mashup it isn’t using any song of an artist used already. If unsure just ask me

gg

gl all

thanks for running dizzy

I don't put time into walrus submissions.

for the 2019 song I just googled something and listened to 5 seconds of it and thought "that'll do".

I submitted the song that got me eliminated because I like it and it was ineligible.
The point of playing walruses for me is to force someone else to listen to music that I like rather than try to win.

I had Stan pencilled in for an earlier round, might’ve been the female artist one. Changing it was clearly a good decision.

Next round is the one I’m most worried about of the five I submitted in advance. I might change it before going completely off the grid tomorrow.

I can totally understand not liking the song. But a huge Eminem fan disliking it that much is definitely a bit weird imo.

Have you ever listened to it in the car? The scribbling in the background is so tilting. Wasn’t as bad when I listened on laptop/headphones

all submissions in.

the 3rd artist/band of the first 3 albums I purchased as a kid was submitted this round. Same as the last 2 submissions, it was a song off a different album though.

who thinks it was them? any guesses in general?

for reference, the albums (not in order of purchase):

1. Avril Lavigne, Let Go
2. Eminem, The Eminem Show
3. [redacted], [redacted]

I think it could be me. I was even trying to hit the 3rd artist with my submission. Not that I have any idea...just seemed like a band you would buy as a kid.

In before nodium obv.

Wouldn't be shocked if it was mine, although I hadn't considered it at all.

People brought it this round - some really solid submissions. Going to be one of the more/most competitive podiums

Round 9 Category: A song with a 6+ word title

Really enjoyed the submissions in this category. If you are in this middle group know that I most likely really liked your song - they almost all had at least some podium equity.

the following (in no order) are SAFE
