Russia: Dissapointing at best.

Mongolia: Best theme for me. Especially the begging of the song it gives me a great feel of scope. When the later part kicks in it reminds of the past and gives me some special kind of joy.

Ottomans: Just... Pretty unremarkable and definitely could have been better.

Songhai - 10- 3= 7 Probably my least favorite theme, I can't put my finger on it but it sounds "off" for being a Songhai theme, plus i find it hard that Songhai can be peaceful when there's a burning city in the leader screen.
Spain - 22
Sweden - 24 + 1= 25 The music fits how sophisticated Sweeden is, plus Gustavus's pose makes it sound even better.

TBH I haven't actually listened past the first couple seconds of this. I'm not sure whether those first few seconds are offnotes or just what traditional Portuguese music sounds like, but it definitely sounds a bit ear-piercing to me. :thumbsdown:

The traditional Portuguese parts are the ones with the guitar in it. The intro isn't part of that, no.

Since I'm undecided on what to downvote next, I'll take a brief opportunity to take away a bit from Poland's massive lead. Don't take me wrong, it's a good song, but I don't think any of the themes here should have this big a lead (Sorry, AggresiveWimp). This'll be a one-time thing, really.

Anyway, I really don't get the general dislike for Russia's theme, so I'll make it live a bit longer. It's eerie, it's unsettling, and very much so. It really works.
 
I can't believed nobody noticed that Venice and Zulu were not in the rankings.
Until now.
Wow, I feel depressed now.

Poland: This theme is worthy of a massive lead. Worthy.

Russia: I'm sorry JonnasN, but I think this song deserves to be kicked out next.

Indonesia : A decent theme, but one that just doesn't sound particularly appropriate for Indonesia. Besides it reminds me of a Doctor Who theme (Clara's) which is off-putting. Yeah I know that's not the themes fault, but this is all subjective anyway so...

Russia : Come one, people, there are at least 15 themes that deserve to go out before this !

Russia - Definitely doesn't deserve to go next - great tune, distinctively Russian.

Russia - 6 - 3 = 3 JonnasN described this theme as "eerie... [and]unsettling", which I completely agree with. But personally I'm having trouble seeing how that makes a good peace theme. Very certainly deserves to go next, definitely before Songhai.

-3 to Russia and it's now gone. While one could perhaps call it a "360* MLG tactical snipe" I can honestly say that I really dislike this theme. It's unremarkable.

+1 to Songhai because it sounds cool and some fragments remind me of the Lion King (mostly the War theme but Peace also has some similar fragments). Doesn't deserve to go out so soon. It's also cool that this one is more "menacing" than some War themes of other civs.
 
All I am going to say, is that America should be voted out next, then Songhai.

Well, I let Brazil off the hook for a while (trying to avoid hounding on it just because I know the source material), but I really don't think it's better than any of the remaining themes.

Meanwhile, I think Songhai have one of the most pleasant and atmospheric peace themes. Surprised to see it so low.

Every time I play as the Dutch its peace theme is breath of fresh air compared to most civs.

Was playing a Hot Seat game with my friend and he was India and it was pretty rough.

Celts: It's a tough battle between the Celts, Poland and Sweden, but the Celts theme is just so great. It's pretty relaxing IMO.

Iroquois: It doesn't transmit any feelings! Get the creek and the animals that you hear in the Leader screen, and it feels decent even. Without, it just feels meh. Meh for a meh civ.
