Results for last week's polling on our favorite songs! (2022 edition)
Hey Neverland!
I asked you two weeks ago to vote for your favorite gidle songs, the results are in!
We got 86 unique lists with 39 song mentions (including an OST, but hey :D)
I decided to showcase the top 20 here, if people really wanna see all the song mentions, i might add to it (but i thought it might become too much)

I'm gonna be totally honest, despite having listened to it dozens of times at this point I still don't understand Dahlia. I respect ya'll for liking it so much but damn it ain't even in like my top 25 I-DLE songs tbh!
I do love seeing Moon so high though, she's truly a gem i hope the Soyeon Minnie combo comes back someday.
ALSO i love how high the average points and #1s are for Maybe compared to the songs around it, not everyone put it on their list but the people that did on average rated it highly! Myself included since that's my #1 song as of now. Interesting bits of data to look at for sure. Interesting that My Bag got 0 #1 spots,
I'm also a bit surprised Tomboy isn't higher but i think we're also in peak Tomboy atm so i can understand people not being AS into it right now as they mighta been. I think in about 2 years it will have moved up significantly. It's easily up there with Lion and Hann as their best fully conceptualized songs imo.
Haha personally i agree, dahlia isn't really that much on my radar, which is why i was rather surprised, but hey that's the beauty of the polling i think!
Yep that is why i included these stats too, to give a little more context this time around, i think it's rather interesting how certain songs seem to have a pretty high average point count but simply lack the broader appeal seemingly.
In regards to tomboy i am not sure tbh, i guess the next one in two years will show us (hehe hopefully sooner, was my bad to have waited for sooo long, but tbf i also didn't wanna do it with the whole debacle last year :()
I've seen you say you wanna see the full list, i might write it down, some point this week, maybe! Gonna let people know in the wdt when i do.
I can't speak for everyone but the reason I love the song has nothing to do with how the song sounds but more so the content of the lyrics. To me, its... to simplify it, its basically Oh My God (Minnie's Version) with multiple meanings, ambiguity... but with a noticeable lack of overt gayness - a possible point of criticism for some π
This is how I feel about Maybe. I got no clue why you love it so much, but that's the beauty of IDLE's discography; the group has branched out and tried so many genres and subgenres that there's bound to be something for everyone, which also means there's bound to be something that's not for everyone.
Moon is in my top 5 but honestly, I am more interested in seeing another combo first. We've already seen what Soyeon & Minnie can do, we've seen what Minnie & Yuqi can do, but I really want to see what kind of magic Soyeon & Yuqi can produce together π§
