SORBVISION™ II: GALA LIVE SYNC I (LIVE AT 9:30PM)

[Saltwater]

1 minute credits?

 

[straightorbroken]

Thank you attendees. Good luck to tonight's entrancers and hopefully we can do it all again tomorrow. @ButterTart is tomorrow the same scenario for you? If so, expect another 9:30-10pm-ish belated start time

 

[Saltwater]

Thank you sorb

 

[Saltwater]

Strong choices this is going to be interesting.

 

[Berly]

I shall pop this on whilst working this afternoon

 

[untilted]

Very strong indeed

 

[RaspberrySwirl]

Just had a quick look, it sounds promising

 

[straightorbroken]

Oooooh. I wonder which ones.

Tonight, I should get going after Traitors. Just received a 10 minute video from our mystery guest hosterer - not even 5 seconds in and [redacted] got it wrong, so I have high hopes for a car crash (they were literally the only seconds I had time to watch)

 

[ButterTart]

Right, I've been in Mopsy exile for a week because work has been RELENTLESS and I felt so guilty about leaving @straightorbroken in the lurch at the last minute with a hurried message.

I'm HERE and finally about to delve into this trove.

 

[ButterTart]

1. Bess - I've had this on my radar since it was released so fair play to whomstsoever sent it. I've even toyed with trying to play dumb and send Ram Pam Pam because it's the best song ever written.

 

[ButterTart]

2. Gazapizm - I have no Earthly idea what's happening in this video but this is GOOD.

 

[ButterTart]

Love the choir just singing one word at a time. I hope they translate to something completely incongruous; he's rapping (?) away and being punctuated by them shouting 'chops', 'boob', 'Snarf'.

 

[ButterTart]

3. Rear View. Three songs in and we've already had two from my shortlist

 

[ButterTart]

I'm disappointed in myself for not sending this when I had the chance, if anything. It's really very good and excellent.

 

[ButterTart]

4. Charlotte Cardigan - very understated but somewhat of a bop. I wonder if it's too far down the Billie Eilish 'people think I'm cool but actually I just can't be arsed' style of singing which threatened to ruin Eurovision for a couple of years.

 

[ButterTart]

5. The Knocks - This is a bit too disco for me. Not a bad song, just not right up my cup of tea and two sugars.

 

[ButterTart]

6. Topless Mother - I hope this is the soundtrack to an upcoming 'post an AI picture of Diane sunbathing in Lanzarote' thread. It's pretty good, to be fair.

 

[ButterTart]

7. Paola - Well, this video is already gloriously overblown, like a James Bond title sequence from Wish.

 

[ButterTart]

Loving the bit where Victoria Beckham rides the green-screen motorbike.

 

[ButterTart]

8. Charles Brother Zulu - Why is he singing like that bit in Home Alone 2 when Kevin uses the tape recorder to impersonate his Dad?

 

[ButterTart]

Ooh, falsetto. This hasn't made the experience any more pleasant, but variety is always welcome.

 

[ButterTart]

Oh, it's two people

 

[ButterTart]

9. Eartha Kitt - This is actually hypnotic. The Art Attack-meets-late night advert for a budget hotel aesthetic of the video is an inspired choice.

 

[ButterTart]

I don't know if that was any good and frankly I don't care. She's off her fucking gourd.

 

[ButterTart]

10. Highly Suspect - Did I actually just sit through a feature-length intro just to be confronted with one of these fuckawful Rag n Bone Man singing voices?

 

[ButterTart]

11. Hande Yener - Janice from Friends singing in foreign The line that sounds like she said 'I chinned a gay' is worth a few points on its own.

 

[ButterTart]

12. Black House. It means the... uh... black house. Shout out to @Tisch for being the only one to get that reference to a throwaway Simpsons line.

The song is good. I'm fingering @Funky or @Music, and when I'm finished I'll start working out who sent this song.

 

[ButterTart]

13. Chrissy Chlapecka - This smacks of that one song I think I don't like and then end up giving 3 points to.

 

[ButterTart]

She's a look of Busy Philipps about her.

 

[ButterTart]

14. Misha Romanova - This sound a bit winner-y. Actually quite the bop.

 

[straightorbroken]

Wonderful to see you back in the asfm habit @ButterTart

Alas I have not entered this time but thanks for thinking of me! I will assume the song is the greatest piece of music ever recorded.

It was a sizzling beat which sounded like it had a 12 minute extended version floating around somewhere

 

[OutSynk]

Alas I have not entered this time

WHY WOULD YOU DO THIS TO ME

 

[Music]

WHY WOULD YOU DO THIS TO ME

I totally missed the deadline! Never again

 

[straightorbroken]

Aww. I definitely would have extended it for you, but you'd be more than welcome to still vote if you have a spare 2 hours of music listening
