1) You’re getting Rickrolled… And you’ll LIKE IT
Songs which have become comic caricatures of their original selves be it due to interpretation of imagery or lyrics by the public. Every song can be turned into a meme but I'm looking for the breakout viral ones. Going mainstream is the wave for this category.

Chun Li - Nicki Minaj

2) :o
Wait.. Why does this sound so upbeat..? Someone singing a song about some really sad moments in an upbeat presentation or vice versa? You're playing the right track. I'm looking for songs whose lyrics and delivery of vocals seem to be at complete odds with the accompanying instruments but still somehow work together. Covers won't be counted.

Sally II - Hop Along

3) Shooting the Wind
Songs about.... Nothing! Songs which have no clear interpretation or songs about a simple day in life.

Does Anybody Really Know What Time It Is - Chicago

4) The Daughter of Time
They say Truth is the daughter of father time. As unchanging as time, looking for songs which tell of a tale already written, set in stone with some significance to human history.

Haiti - Arcade Fire

5) Catharsis
Making music or listening to it is a means of catharsis for many. I'm looking for songs which feature those parts of our life and aid to release strong or repressed emotions, positive and negative, due to circumstances around us.

Threads - Portishead

6) [Redacted]
What’s this category about? Well that’s for you to find out! For this submission you’ll need to submit a small description of what the category is along with your song.

Category: Counterculture anthems
Bodys - Car Seat Headrest

7) Dance (with decorum!)
Planning to head down to the club to go wild and dance to some beats?? Have fun! Just don't submit the kind of songs you'd find playing there. I'm looking for songs to which people can groove with ease and grace, with class and etiquette.

So Into You - Tamia

8) I've fallen for you... And I can't get up:
Keep those towels by the bed stand handy. I'm looking for passionate songs celebrating love and harmony and all the warm and fuzzy feelings that come with it.

Cocoon - Bjork

9) Legendary
Rarely do musicians ever break out of the trends that influence them. Rarely does someone make something that is so detached from their presumed influences that it seems like it's not derivative of anything at all for its time. Often Imitated, never duplicated, their then unique sound in defiance of the normal is remembered, revered and immortalized today. The trendsetters, the trailblazers, the ensuing legends... put them all here.

In France They Kiss on Main Street - Joni Mitchell

S) Special Connections (Instrumental Only):
I'm looking to replicate an experience I had with this one and never found anything similar ever again. For me, this song is the official soundtrack of Humanity: tragic yet hopeful. I would like to replicate those two emotions in that exact order on a grand scale.The example song lasts barely three minutes, never really goes anywhere, has an extremely basic key structure and yet is extremely profound. This category is special so make sure you read the rules!
