I haven't really changed my opinions on any of the 64 songs since the beginning, kinda crazy.

Edit: Honorio is so based for putting Heart pt 5 at #1.

Basketball Shoes > Dark Blue
No Reason > Don't Be So Hard on Your Own Beauty
The Place Where He Inserted the Blade > The Heart, Pt. 5
Growing Up < Running with the Hurricane
Unonkanyamba < Still
All the Good Times > Concorde
Simulation Swarm > Make a Picture
Doomscroller > Spitting Off the Edge of the World

- Voting for the two BCNR songs I didn't earlier, and against Concorde because of how good the Angel Olsen song is.
- Hadn't listened to the last 4 before due to missing R1W4 and R2W2. All 4 are good but Doomscroller is incredible.
