lavenderblondee PronounsShe/her Popster to Popster 3,889 Posted May 17, 2021 Share Posted May 17, 2021 i really struggled with what is defined as a ballad in my hungover only having 20 minutes before I had to leave for work state. The curse of the winners being in the bottom will absolutely be the case this time. Someone using Let's Wait A While by Janet Alone by Heart Can't Help Falling In Love With You by Elvis SO HARD TO CHOOSE. 1 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, to be fair, it is a wide umbrella (ranging from power ballads to sentimental love songs belted out by powerhouse divas)...Odds are, you'll be fine. And at least you had a decent excuse. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly. It's so silly too because I KNOW what I define as a ballad but I know there are so many "ballad" genres out there. My mind always goes to slow songs, but then 80s power ballads...etc. I tried to play it safe, regardless 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the story-telling aspect is key here as well. One of my picks is definitely controversial but it was approved by @PETTY so we shall see if others think too...

Not only is Thank You in Top 5 of my most-streamed track of all time on Spotify, but Chasing Pavements also holds a special place in my heart.

Thank you everyone who voted for me :D Good luck to those in the vote off! I always had doubts between two trios which one I thought deserved my vote. I was hoping the one I didnt vote for would have enough votes. Now its in the vote off and now I can say I voted for both of my fave trios :D 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

(No, I wont spill anything while the game is still going) I usually pick the one that speaks to me the most. And now I had two favorites and I can turn the situation into positive and support both :D 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
