The Miley Cyrus Discography Rate Part 1: WINNER ANNOUNCED! FINISHED!

[savilizabeths]

Going to try and knock the rest of this out as quickly as possible as I've just spent the evening looking after my concussed girlfriend and the deadline is while I'll be sleeping as far as I can tell. Yikes.

@Maki 2 PM is in about an hour, so Ight be enough time? Honestly, I'm really excited for you to participate, so I'd be willing to wait, especially since I have to write a few papers for college. Nothing too long but I should've done them when I was supposed to.
Or I could post the first elimination before you submit, because there's no way your scores are going to change it.

I got home later that I thought, so if there's a chance of me voting around 3PM your time, it would be perfect.
Properly working on the scores now, but adding commentary will further take away time, so there likely won't be any, I'm afraid.

As for the first elimination, you can do however you want it.

That's perfect. I might not even have the first elimination up until then. And you can of course, comment along or submit some to me later on. It's up to you.

Let me celebrate hitting my goal of getting more voters than my Sabrina rate and let you know it's...
Time For Tea! (#3)
(format credit to @soratami and his R&B bop queens rate.)

With 15 voters:
The number one song has a 9.6 9.81 average, and is the same song. Whew, y'all really love this song.
The last song has an average of 3.5 3.56 and is the same song as the last round. Whew, y'all really hate this one.
There are 2 5 songs with a 9+ average, and 46 53 songs with an average below 7 (Let me be happy that we have more songs with a 9+ average, but y'all are haters.)
There are 6 7 sections in the top 10, including three of the Hannah Soundtracks, and two no
more sections represented in the top 20, and it's honestly pretty great, but I could do with some other songs in there instead of what's currently made it.
There are 4 5 sections in the bottom 10, and I'm extremely upset about one of the songs.
The current highest average for a section (besides my own) is 8.778 9.11 I love 9+ album averages so much. The lowest for any section is 3 2.9 but don't worry. It's lowkey a tad warranted.
Two Three Miley albums have received 11s for five eight different songs, and 4 Hannah Soundtracks have received 11s for 8 9 different songs.
Besides my own, 46 54 songs have received at least one 10.
Lowest scores for certain songs are five six 0s, fourteen eighteen 1s, one 1.5, twelve eleven 2s, two 2.5s, fifteen 3s, and two 3.5s, so that's 50 53 songs that have a score below 4. This is based on if a song's minimum score is that number, so if the amount decreased its cause those songs got lower scores.
Bold = didn't change from first five ballots
Grey = First five ballots stats
Green = Increased/got better than first five ballots
Red = Decreased/got worse than first five ballots.

This is based on the next five ballots (@AbCF15 @Ana Raquel @Hurricane Drunk @spaceship and @M24) I've since recieved ballots from @Remorque @Mirwais Ahmadzaï and @savilizabeths and I'm sure @Maki is gonna come through with another one, so expect one more round of tea. But I'll probably post it after I start the eliminations.

19 voters! Woohoo! Thank you all so much for coming! That's 5 more than my Sabrina rate, and honestly more than I was expecting, since I know people have their issues with Miley - and most of these are validated - so I'm so happy y'all were able to set whatever you might have aside and join in! The struggle of stanning a problematic pop star haha. Also thanks to everyone who tried to participate! I know life gets in the way, and that's more important than these, but I hope you'll try again for part 2!​

Thanks! Now @Entropy won't be alone.
Poor The Time Of Our Lives though.

 

[Maki]

Looks like this was enough time for me to score songs by Miley, but not for all of the 100 songs.
Might send the scores for obligatory songs only very soon.

Sorry for causing the mess. Like you've said, the first elimination won't be affected, so I hope it's okay if I'm a little bit late.

By the way, I'm team "Can't Be Tamed".

It's okay! Honestly, I've felt like a total mess myself, so I'm totally okay with you just doing the compulsory songs. Just as long as you send them.
Thanks for letting me know!

[iheartpoptarts]

Poor The Time Of Our Lives though.

I mean, you'd think having only six songs that aren't 'Party in the USA' on it would be a great help!

 

[Remorque]

Team Can't Be Tamed. And I'm gonna be delighted 6 of the top 15 songs are from the album.

Now...

Permanent December for a top 15 placement!

 

[Mirwais Ahmadzaï]

I actually prefer Breakout to Can't Be Tamed, but there are a few songs that brought down its average. Can't Be Tamed is a really consistent album.

 

[savilizabeths]

I honestly don't really think Can't Be Tamed is that good of an album. Oops?

 

[Remorque]

I honestly don't really think Can't Be Tamed is that good of an album. Oops?

I'll admit it sounds clunky in places, but that album has not only kinda shifted the way I look at Miley's growth as an artist, but my own too.

 

[Maki]

Voted.

Took me a while to realize that the extras are obligatory, too, so I needed some extra reminding.
And I'll try to squeeze in the scores for the rest of the songs if possible.

 

[Music Is Life & Death]

Okay, after a very long wait, filled with extensions, messes, delays, and frustration (and maybe even a little bit of a rule breaking? I'm not sure), we can finally get this show on the road...

Zip-A-Dee-Doo-Dah is a cover Miley did for DisneyMania4, one album in a series where Disney Channel Stars covered classic Disney songs. It was written by Allie Wrubel & Ray Gilbert for the movie Song Of The South, which I've never seen and have no interest in seeing. The cover was produced by either Jay Landers, Dani Markman or Andrew Lane. They're the producers for the album, and they didn't give ones for specific songs. The album went to number 15 on the Billbaord 200 so...good for it I guess? It also features covers from Christina Aguilera (a remix of Reflection, which is weird since at this point that cover was like 8 years old) the Jonas Brothers, Ashley Tisdale and Skye Sweetnam, who I know Haze is a fan of (but Selena's version of Cruella De Vil is probably better.) Anyway, AllMusic's review says that Miley's cover is a "rock redux" of the song, and I don't really...hear that? To me it's more poppy jazz type song with maybe a little country influence. I honestly don't have a lot to say about this song. I don't think this being last will surprise anybody, especially since it's the only song with a less than 4 average. Like, it's a cute little cover form her early days and that's pretty much it. I might have overscored it a tad but I'm not entirely sure. Oh well. It's last anyway.

Only 4 of you had something to say about this, so let's start with our highest scorer. @pop3blow2 (9) Her version of this song has always been oddly engaging to me. I love they nailed parts of the old-timey production. Wait. You've heard this before the rate? We have a stan people. And yeah, you're right. It's nice that the stuck to an "older feel" for the song. It just doesn't work for everyone. Now, let's see what one of our lowest scorers said. @DJHazey (1) I expected something much faster and crazier, and was prepared to shade the hell out of it, but somehow this is even worse. Why were you even expecting that? And you still manage to throw shade. @iheartpoptarts (2) continues to prove she and Hazey are sometimes in sync and says: This song did not need to be slowed down. I do love Splash Mountain though. Oh. Is the original faster? I've never heard it. And I've never been to Splash Mountain, or a Disney park for that matter. @savilizabeths (2) brings up the albums: Ah, Disneymania albums. Does anyone else remember these? The real point here is though, this is bad. I remember them dddd. And...you're not 100% wrong. Finally we'll close with @M24 (6) who's participating in their first rate and submits a comment that perfectly sums this up: Ok cover. Yup. That's pretty much it.

Go ahead. Listen to it again.

The original.

(This is fine. Kinda boring. I prefer Miley's voice so...I prefer Miley's version.)
How about some other DisneyMania stuff?
Here's the remix of Reflection, which kinda goes off a bit

Skye's version of Cruella De Vil

(This is nice enough. Feels closer to the original, and it goes awf at a point. But still...)
Nothing will beat this version for me. Selena just owns it.

[Remorque]

Good fucking riddance.
