I did my part for "Blah Blah Blah," giving it a 9.
Shocked at Nicki leading: Think the score is due to its being a mediocre track by someone who's capable of being terrific, which'll definitely split people in all sorts of ways. I don't even remember Jonsi. Surprised by Tim McGraw. The rest are credibly controversial, i.e., will attract people who love and hate unreasonably.
I think Nicki is leading largely due to a low(ish) sample size, honestly. I gave it a 7, on a bad day would give it a 5, on a good day would give it...um, a 7. I really can't imagine scores deviating too much higher or lower than that, though! I think it's an example of rating the artist as much as (if not more than) the song.
