Worst-votes minus best-votes = the official RM score. Retrograde with the worst score so far, Quick Escape with the best.

1. Retrograde 14 - 0 = 14
2. Superblood Wolfmoon 13 - 0 = 13
3. Never Destination 12 - 1 = 11
4. Buckle Up 14 - 6 = 8
5. Take the Long Way 8 - 3 = 5
6. River Cross 3 - 1 = 2
7. Alright 1 - 3 = -2
8. Seven O'Clock 3 - 6 = -3
9. Comes Then Goes 2 - 6 = -4
10. Who Ever Said 2 - 7 - 2 = -5
11. Dance of the Clairvoyants 0 - 11 = -11
12. Quick Escape 0 - 27 + 0 = -27

that seems about right, even if it isn't my rankings. Buckle Up is such a specific flavor I can see it turning people off. And SBWM is woefully underappreciated! At least it has PhatJ and I to champion it

It's like Ed drunkenly half-assing a cover of a rejected song from They Might Be Giants' 'Bed Bed Bed' Ep. It's so uncomfortable and discongruent.

Never Destination is a good song but at least there are a couple of parts that I like. And I don't make a sour face when I listen to it. I just feel so bad for Buckle Up. It's like the song version of watching Michael Scott kiss Oscar.
