Won't repost the whole old questionaire again, so let's go to the songs. Hopefully my rating scale will be more reasonable this time. Also, I'll go with my personal taste, not with analisis on the actual musical quality.

1.

  • Rating: 6/10
    • That was actually much better than I expected, I thought it would suck bad as soon as I read the words "Jay-Z"; and well, the worst parts on the song were with Jay-Z, so I was partially right. Not bad song, though.

2.

  • Rating: 5/10
    • Way too slow for my taste. Not really bad beside that.

3.

  • Rating: 7.5/10 (can I do this? If not, stay with an 8)
    • Like it. For some reason, I feel something wasn't quite right on the mix, and the song is not so great, but it was enjoyable enough.

4.

  • Rating: 4.5/10 (again, if half-rates aren't allowed, stick with 5)
    • I found it to be quite boring. Not necessarily bad, but very boring, and the fact that the main melody is the ONLY melody in the whole song doesn't help.

5.

  • Rating: 5/10
    • I don't like Dance (or whatever is that particular genre of music) the least bit, and that's coming from somebody who has interest on electronic music; however, J-Lo's singing was actually nice to my surprise, and that alone saved the score from the bottom. And cool BMW by the way.

6.

  • Rating: 2.5/10 (same drill. 3/10 if integer)
    • WOW, her voice is SO irritating, and the majority of the song suffers from the same problem as the fourth one.

7.

  • Rating: 6.5/10
    • Enjoyable. Some weird bits kinda ehr felt weird, but the song was kinda good,

8.

  • Rating: 8/10
    • Foo Fighters rule. Overall very nice, it didn't strike me as my favorite songs (therefore, songs that would get 9 or 10) would, but still good.

9.

  • Rating: 7.5/10
    • As good as they are, I don't dig the vocals. However, the song just works; very clean and comfortable.

10.

  • Rating: 2/10
    • Argh my ears. If they took off the beats (I just hate modern hip-hop beats) and his terrible voice (therefore half of the song), it actually would get a higher score. Of course, if Soulja Boy was just replaced by Chuck D, it would probably score a lot better.

11.

  • Rating: 4/10
    • Same problem with previous song, and while not bad, I found the singing pretty meh and it certainly could not have the talking part, it's worse than when they do it on metalcore. At least the song it's not cringe-inducing as the previous one.

12.

  • Rating: 6/10
    • Not bad, but not too good either. The main synth sounds bad and Damon sounds like he's going asleep, but the rest was fine.
