Non-metal Themed Mixtape Game

Lynyrd Skynyrd – Trust – alright but nothing spectacular, not a fan of the piano, 4/10

Robin Trower - The Last Time – should have begun a fade-out around 3:30, has the elements of a good 80s cheese song but too skeletal overall, 4/10

Leonard Cohen - The Stranger Song – alright, 5/10

Comus - Song To Comus – unlike anyone else, 10/10

Kenny Rogers – Lucille – if I have a kind of country at all, this isn’t it, 3/10

Deus Ex - Enemy Within – Conversation – fuck Sephiroth killing Aerie or whatever, this is where it’s at, 10/10

Eminem – Kim – what in the fuck is this, I mean nothing about this is remotely non-shit but that chorus especially, holy fuck I literally can’t think of anything as embarrassing and stupid as this, and CASSETTEISGOD needed to white knight for these shit lyrics? hahahahahaha, 0/10

She Cries Alone - Skeletal Family – one of the weakest on the album but still pretty cool, a bit typical of goth rock but they had a harder edge to it, 6/10

Daughtry – Traitor – this was fucking amazing, actually listened to it twice, what even is this? some kind of pop R&B post-grunge fusion? 9/10

James Carr - The Dark End of the Street – great way to close things out, 7.5/10

Lynyrd Skynyrd - Trust

5/10

Inoffensive. Not one of their stronger songs and it also seems unnecessarily long.

Robin Trower - The Last Time

5/10

This is okay.

Leonard Cohen - The Stranger Song

10/10

One of the best songs by Leonard Cohen. I think that the lyrics are great and his vocal performance is so deliciously cynical.

Comus - Song To Comus

10/10

I can't say no to Comus. I wasn't aware that there are other Comus fans here.

Kenny Rogers - Lucille

7.5/10

This was better than I thought that it was going to be.

Deus Ex - Enemy Within - Conversation

7/10

Maybe I should play this game because the music seems cool.

Eminem - Kim

3/10

Eminem is overrated and boring.

She Cries Alone - Skeletal Family

5/10

Eh.

Daughtry - Traitor

7/10

Better than I expected. Surprising.

James Carr - The Dark End of the Street

10/10

Great closer to a mostly great list. Really captures the right mood for this theme in a truly sincere way. Great pick.

I'm doing my morning roll back and forth on the bed and Facebook and dick around on the phone.... But I will make my way to the computer soon.

Fucking dismal effort from most this round and I feel disappointed and ashamed to have had to host it. Thanks to those that made the effort. Those that didn't, you should all have a long think about what you've done here and know that my soul is eternally blackened and my heart is crushed by your flippant disregard for the legacy of this great game.

The new theme will be LITERATURE! Submissions can be about any type of literature, as long as it's the clear inspiration behind the songs.

If you don't plan on attempting to rate the playlist, don't submit anything because you're just wasting everyone's time.

That said, you're welcome to rate the playlist even if you haven't submitted anything.
 
I hope you guys are planning on submitting something. I don't think that this is a tough theme.
 
I'm struggling with this one because as usual I'm a shitbag that rarely pays close attention to lyrics, let alone researching their origins. I'll try and Google something though.
