If I voted against heart I’d be kicked out of Seattle I'll let it slide because it's Heart. Futureraven: Beelzebruv, you made me nervous (especially with that Heart pick, seriously). Definitely made me work for the W, my good dude.

That said, I'd say this is your best FAN Idol game. You showed a lot of musical knowledge and dove really deep into your music.

I'll make the SEMI-FINALS simple:
1. Send two songs representing someone's work in a band and behind the scenes for the work of another band.
2. Send two songs of vastly different genres from one country.
3. Send three heavy metal songs, each of different genres/subgenres.
DEADLINE IS THE END OF NXT ON WEDNESDAY NIGHT.

Honestly I'm not upset I lost just wanted to play a funny gif.
Honestly this is the best I've done in these games and I'm proud I made it so far.

Apologies for the delay, but I think I have some songs ready. I hope they can count.

So, about the delay: I may have not thought this round through. Talking with judges now.

And now, THE SEMIS: AND YES, I WILL UPDATE THE BANNED LIST BEFORE THE FINALEFirst up, Clash vs. RadG. For Front To Back, Clash chose Nile Rodgers while RadG went with Andy Bell. Taking the first point is... {Spoiler}RadG, who sweeps the judges. For Metal, Clash went Darkthrone/Kreator/Rhapsody while RadG took Junkie Honey/Sepultura/f***ING GOJIRA. Taking the second point in a close one is... {Spoiler}Clash, getting Tyger and fw91's votes. On a personal note, YOU BOTH f***ING KILLED IT. Finally, for Countries, Clash picked South Korea while RadG took Iceland. Moving on to the finale is... {Spoiler}RADG!!!! RadG took down the votes of fw91 and DASH to claim the first finale spot. Well done!
Clash, you've done a hell of a great job this season. I know nobody can wait to see what you do next time. Now to Roxie vs. suave. For Front To Back, Roxie went with Todd Rundgren while suave chose Kanye West. In the Countries round, Roxie took Ireland while suave went to the United Kingdom. For metal, Roxie went Black Sabbath/Slayer/Motley Crue while suave chose Korn/Judas Priest/White Zombie. By the writeup you might be able to tell that this was a sweep, but who swept their way into the finale? {Spoiler}ROXIE!!!! Roxie swept the Front To Back round, got fw91 and DASH's votes for Countries, and fw91 and Tyger's votes for metal. Congrats!
suave, that was an amazing run to the semis and you showed just how strong your music knowledge is. You've just set yourself as a threat in future games. Still trying to work out how the finale will go but it will get up sooner rather than later.

Just an unbelievable round of Four right there.
Will wait for the Final Four contestants to check the thread but this was all very close, especially with the metal songs.
We could take any combination of the Final Four contestants and it would be an amazing Finale. I hope the two eliminated contestants can see just how well they played and realize how tough it was to judge this last round. A lot of it had to come down to personal preferences, maybe some ideas on how to play the game, but ultimately, at least for me, it was like choosing between, I dunno, Daniel Bryan and Bret Hart. Everyone was terrific and I did my best to choose.
So, hats off to everyone! I'll try to make playlists for everyone and post them here

Yeah, the metalhead in me was very happy with what you guys brought. Especially the Clash vs. RadG matchup: black metal is very seldom used at all but "Transilvanian Hunger" is an outright classic of the genre, and of course I f***ing love Gojira.

And now, for King Boo and RadcapRadsley, THE FINAL ROUND: IDOL MADLIBSAs suggested by Tyger, we're doing seven songs each: two free picks, one double-dip, and the following: The remaining four songs will be a little from column A, a little from column B. COLUMN A: 50's 60's 70's 80s 90's COLUMN B: cover in different genre features a non-guitar, non-drum, non-keyboard/piano instrument live on TV unplugged artist never used in F.A.N. Idol before The catch is that you cannot use something twice. For example, if you do 70's cover in different genre, you cannot do 70's artist never used before. DEADLINE IS TUESDAY AT 8 PM CDT.

RadcapRadsley, just a friendly reminder that you have a little over two days left to get your picks in.
