2021 AMF Tournament of Champions: Round 3, Part 3

Post by Holden »

Hello! Welcome to Round 1 of the 2021 AMF Tournament of Champions! Here are the rules for this game overall, as a refresher:

Each of the 27 competitors submitted one album and ten songs. The ten songs each compete in one of ten rounds, each with a different type of competition. Meanwhile, the albums will be rated (out of ten) as time goes on. After each round, each competitor will receive points based on their performance in the round. At the end of all ten rounds, the points will be totaled from each round and the rating of the album, and a winner will be declared!

This week's rules:
The third round is going to involve ranking randomly categorized songs. Each week you will get nine songs, and you must rank them. The top nine songs from each of the first three rounds will move onto the final part of round three. Here are your songs:

Civil Twilight | Letters From the Sky
Daryll-Ann | Summerdaze
David Lang / Sumi Jo / Terry Davies / BBC Concert Orchestra London | Simple Song #3
Django Django | Giant
Kante | Gospel
Sherbet | Howzat
The Beatles | Think For Yourself
The Dubliners | Raglan Road
The Wedding Present | Dalliance

Playlist


Please rate albums from this list out of ten. You can do this in any order, but please post in the most recent thread!

However I will be 'featuring' one album a week to make them more digestible. This week's album is:

Image
Slut | Lookbook (2001)

Looks like the album is not available in the United States on Spotify. Use a VPN if possible? I couldn't find all of the tracks on Youtube either.



Alright, in conclusion:
Rank all nine songs above! You have exactly seven days (April 3rd) from the time of this post!

Additionally, rate albums from the list out of ten. You can do this at whatever pace you like, but post your ratings in the most recent thread! And you can always rate previously featured albums as well!

As a big fan of the movie In Bruges, Raglan Road immediately brought me back to the scene where it's used and destroyed me once again.

Slut - Lookbook 7.0 I wouldn't have given this a try on the basis of unassuming Unacclaimed entry Hope, so I was caught off-guard by how much of the album left a strong impression, one of this tournament's better inclusions.

My highlights: The Day It Rained Forever, No Time, Swingquest, Global Cut

This a rather strong group of songs, but even so it's kind of a miracle to pick such a minor song from Rubber Soul.
