First up, we have Chibu Khaki ( Apostolis). Vicky Kaya:First of all, your song is a massive banger, I have to admit it. But as much as it is a banger, it is also equally a very very lazy choice. I think it is quite obvious you said “fuck it” this week, “I’m just going to send the first song that comes to my mind”. JuPaul:It does fit the theme but I fear I never liked this song. Not now and not in 2016. It's also another low-effort choice and we previously asked you to do some more research when you pick a song so I think this was the wrong entry to show progress. Jojo Siwa:ALKOHOL ALKOHOL ALKOHOL... that's all the thought you put into this entry so I'm returning the favor. Andrélle:Banger. This song is SCF HERstory, so it's only fitting it was sent to SCF's Song Race. Dionysus was the god of wine, the song is called Alcohol = perfect match. The essay girls should learn from you if you ask me. Overall, great choice for those who don't hate fun! Marina Satti:In all honesty, I am kinda mad you’re here.. this is pure perfection the song is amazing the connection.. I’m sold with it, I have zero clue how or why you are here, instead of Maxima or Bulge Area.. it was an amazing week for you and that’s IT. |

Secondly, it's Kuchi-san's time ( david). Jojo Siwa:Another week another slay bitch. I absolutely loved this and it was my favorite this week. The beats simply went too hard for me not to have it first. Marina Satti:I wasn’t too crazy about your god, Hermes is difficult for me, but honestly you did a great job delivering again this week. You have momentum and you should keep it up great job this week again! Andrélle:This was lovely, a really nice song! However, while I do feel that it matched the theme, I thought your explanation was kind of a stretch at some points. If you just went the Chibu route and said Hermes was a messenger so you sent this song called Messenger, I'd honestly appreciate it more lol. But that's just me! Great job anyway! JuPaul:Very cute entry! The song fits the theme, maybe not as a perfect match, but it fits well enough for me. I also appreciate the song itself, it was intriguing to me. Another solid week for you, keep it up! Vicky Kaya:A very good execution this week. I love how the song fits so well with your God, and I'm sure it wasn't an easy task to accomplish with your assigned God but you did it! Love the song as well, it's very hauntingly beautiful./spoiler]

Thirdly, we will talk to Penny D. Lux ( Josh's Tattoo (Inactive)). JuPaul:I'm afraid to say that in my opinion, your song was the one that matched the least with the assigned god. Some explanations I understood but others... girl. The archery link? The song fitting Apollo because she "danced" in the video and sang? According to that logic, wouldn't every song fit Apollo because he's the god of music? I actually quite liked the song itself, in a different week (or for a different god) this might've gotten a good score from me but I just did not think it had a strong connection to Apollo, unfortunately. Andrélle:This was very similar to Westminster's entry last week in the sense that while I do appreciate its cultural elements, it kinda... goes nowhere? Like I thought it was kinda boring and, kinda like Kuchi-San, I think you could've done a much more obvious interpretation. Vicky Kaya:I’m still trying to figure out what is going on here. On one hand, the song: cute, nothing spectacular. What I’m trying to understand is how exactly you were trying to connect your God with this specific song. I just can’t quite see the connection. Marina Satti:I can’t say your song was bad, but rather flat.. and that’s my main issue with you. Somehow the song choices all feel the same in a way, and I’m not feeling it. You’re always mid of the pack, and at some point this is gonna bite you in the ass, so step it up.. ask Daremyth how she managed to do it, you need to bring it on harder.. Jojo Siwa:Okay STRETCH. This connection honestly didn't really do it for me. Like, I get what you're going for, but it seems to miss the mark at truly representing APOLLO rather than like 1 thing he's associated with. Song is whatever honestly It didn't really go anywhere. |

Fourthly, we move on to Estrogennifer ( Alper). Vicky Kaya:This was my absolute favorite this week. Everything was on point; the song, the connection were just perfect. I also appreciate the fact that your song wasn’t in English so added bonus for that. Very well done! Marina Satti:Wow.. this was such an amazing experience.. and you ate every second of it. It fit perfectly to your God and you had zero flaws.. this was just magnificent. JuPaul:I loved this entry. Sometimes less is more and this proves it. It sounded great, the lyrics were a good match and I think the vibes of the whole song kinda fit Ares as well. Great job! Jojo Siwa:Okay someone finally decided to show up to the competition. This absolutely EATS and It does a great job representing Ares. I like that it's a little bit scary, too. Andrélle:Fantastic, amazing, 10/10, that one Lady Gaga gif. Honestly, nothing else to say. Ate down. |

Mambo Queen Nr. 5 is Eva Máziková ( Percy Yates). Andrélle:Great choice here as well! Good song (it's no Ta Ne but still), fits the theme, no complaints. Keep it up! Jojo Siwa:Okay this was by far the best connection to the god this week, and I'm genuinely convinced ionnalee wrote this with Demeter and Persephone in mind. Great song too but slightly held back by the crunchy harmonies. TR/ST is just not my favorite vocalist. Marina Satti:Kind of a given coming from me, but you ate this up.. ionnalee and tr/st together in one song.. oh baby I’m sold. Your connection to Demeter was good and it paid off! Vicky Kaya:I think this has to be one of the most on point challenge performances this week when it comes to the connection to the Goddess. I wouldn’t say this was one of the easiest tasks of the week but yet you managed to do it nearly flawlessly. The song is really good obviously but as I said, the connection is just immaculate. JuPaul:Well obviously this is an amazing fit for Demeter. The lyrics really seem like they were written for her story and the song is quite the bop as well. Wasn't too fond of TR/ST's part though, I think he shines more as a producer than as a singer, but hey, still a good song! |

Up sixth, we have Mel A Tonin ( Matt). Vicky Kaya:With a god like Zeus I had very high expectations for the approach you were going to take. But to me, this reads very basic and very shallow. Personally for me, you could’ve dug deeper and found something with a much stronger connection. The song isn't something amazing either to be honest. Andrélle:First of all, I really did like the song! Love the 70s vibes, it's fun, catchy, a bop overall. What I didn't necessarily enjoy was your interpretation as I felt it was a bit too... general? Especially since you actually picked Zeus for yourself. I think this interpretation would fit any god in any religion. Instead, you could've focused more on like thunder or maybe even how much of an absolute CUNT (derogatory) Zeus was to everyone around him. Overall, it was a nice choice ngl, it's just that the rest did better for me. JuPaul:I thought this was a cute entry, I didn't mind the connection to Zeus, imo it fits, and the song itself was nice as well and not something I would've expected to see. However, I do think it's a weird choice to assign yourself Zeus just to send this? I appreciate that you wanted to take a risk but you had basically every song in the world available to you so I kinda don't understand this choice. You fumbled your bag I fear. Still not a bad entry in my opinion though! Jojo Siwa:Okay so I got the joke here but I honestly thought this was a really mediocre way to channel Zeus. I wanted something electrifying, not something that was a mild shock and then gets swept up by the wind. I honestly found it somewhat lazy. Marina Satti: kinda see what you tried to do there, but unfortunately you somehow managed to overshadow yourself with the choice. Picking the gods should’ve been easier for you to pick what was more suited for you, but the choice, as much as I see the connection with your god, felt like a big miss.. |

And lucky (or unlucky?) Number 7, we say hello to Daremyth ( Aglan). Marina Satti:You came in like a wrecking ball, and destroyed the competition this week. I am so happy to see you keep up your good track, after that first week’s miss, and that’s how I love seeing you. You destroyed the challenged im obsessed with you… Vicky Kaya:Absolutely knocked it out of the park, great job. This song is a Song Race legend at this point with its appearances and I can see why - it's perfection. But it was very fitting for this week - despite it being a Nordic folk song, it’s still a great connection to your assigned Greek Goddess. Potential fulfilled my dear! Jojo Siwa:Apparently I and the other judges have a thing for nordic women making war songs and then passing them off as representing Greek Gods? Seems a bit heretical, but idc, this ATE. The chanting Jadadejå solid it for me. Andrélle:This was great! Love Myrkur and this song is no exception. I enjoyed your interpretation of the theme as well. Unfortunately, it also competed with Estrogennifer's song this week as they are culturally similar, and I'm afraid she edged you out just a bit. Good job nonetheless, glad to see you in the top again! JuPaul:Lovely song, solid fit for Athena, slay etc. I do think the song dragged a little bit after a while but I still think it was a very nice choice for this challenge. |

Chibu Khaki, you got the God of alcohol and we wonder if that's what you consumed when thinking of an entry. Mel A Tonin, you were offered the golden opportunity of a throne and instead pulled a Hestia with your choices. Penny D. Lux, not even the God of poetry was able to help you come up with an explanation that convinced us that your song was a good fit. Chibu Khaki, you are safe.
Mel and Penny, unfortunately you are our bottom 2 of the week. We'll see you soon for the sing-off. |
