Denmark - 2 - 3 = -1 ELIMINATED I don't really have the patience to wait a minute or more for Denmark's theme to get remotely better. For that first segment, it's nothing but boring lyres or zithers or whatever they are, with the occasional horn, and afterwards it morphs into classical music very unbecoming of Vikings.

Mongolia - At first, this felt like a dumbed-down version of the excellent war theme. However, as it develops it becomes surprisingly moving and soulful. It would have been easy to make Mongolia's themes generic and bland, but Geoff Knorr manages to develop complex melodies while evoking the Steppes.

Germany - A great example of how to make a theme boring and bland.
 
And Germany.... It's gone.

Giving my support for Russia, as it still better than plenty that are still remaining.

It's getting harder and harder to find someone to downvote, and I suppose Siam's turn has arrived.

I seem to be the only one to love Korea's peace theme... it sounds exactly like what Koreais supposed to be : peaceful and advanced.

As for the Ottomans... it's a pretty boring theme, doesn't really deserve to sit above 20 points right now considering how many awesome themes there are.
 
I think it's been a little over 24h for me...

Poland - 28 + 1 = 29 To build on Gustavus Rex's comment about the Ducth, 24h+ later, Polands theme is still AWESOME! :D I've tried putting it into a audio modulation program and have found it hard to make it sound bad! And I don't know how to work the program either, so that's also saying something!
Polynesia - 19
Portugal - 19 - 3 = 16 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:

Portugal's peace theme sounds depressing.
 
Teproc and Gustavus posted really close together and Gustavus' votes didn't get pasted over, so I went ahead and factored those back in.

England: So regal and majestic, and works really well with the leader scene. It makes talking to Lizzy feel like you're in the presence of greatness.

Dutch: There might be a theme or two I'd peg as worse, but it has way too many points for how mediocre it is. Beginning and end in particular are quite drab and the whole thing just sounds like generic classical music.

Also, I think wires got crossed somewhere with Arabia. They went from 23 a few days ago to 22 and I didn't see them get voted down anywhere.

Brazil: Even though I love the Dutch theme, chances are that one of you guys are going to upvote them and tell the other guys off in the next twelve hours.

Siam: This theme is a little off-place in my mind.

Siam places 35th!
