Best Dolly Style entry

[Tisch]

10 years of GRAFT () has finally seen them through to the final. But what do you consider MOST BEST?

 

[Penelope]

They blazed out the gate with one of the most unmistakable, iconic debuts of all time. BRITNEY-ESQUE

 

[ZenGiraffe]

It's Habibi and it's not even close

How does baby Tischguana rate 'n' rank the Dolly Style oeuvre? I DEMAND reviews and marks out of ten

This is absolutely an experiment that needs doing!

 

[D5K]

1 vote each for each song. Stop the count!

 

[ButterTart]

Every one is an obvious home run but I have to go with Hello Hi.

 

[ButterTart]

If I had to rank them:

1. Hello Hi
2. Yihaa
3. Habibi
4. Rollercoaster

 

[ZenGiraffe]

1. Habibi
2. Hello Hi
3. Rollercoaster
4. Yihaa

 

[Devil]

I’ve never actively heard any of the others. So I think I’m in for a treat on a DEEP DIVE

But Yihaa has wiped Klara aside to be my favourite track of the year

 

[Velvet Skies]

1. Yihaa
2. Habibi
3. Hello Hi


4. Rollercoaster (with the purple one's solo being both the highlight and the worst moment of this effort )

 

[FetchFugly]

Hello Hi was Dolly Style in its purest form. And I just love the 'BUT you have to COME ALONG' bit.

 

[Penelope]

1. Hello Hi (a neverending odyssey)
2. Rollercoaster (SUCH FUN!)
3. Habibi (a truly sultry spiritual journey )
4. YIHAA (more thrilling than heroin AND going reverse cowgirl)

All 9/10s or above

 

[Jacques]

1. Hello Hi
2. Yihaa
3. Rollercoaster

4. Habibi

It's only Habibi that I don't really get the desire to go back to, the other three are all fabulous.

4. Rollercoaster (with the purple one's solo being both the highlight and the worst moment of this effort )

10K HIGH WE ARE RIDING THE SKIES

*singing in the style of Cinderella's wicked stepsisters*
YOU GET WINGS WHEN TWO HEARTS COLLIDE
*sees her contract terminated and her wig scalped as soon as she exits the stage*

Putting on my DOLLY BOOTS to the Ivor Novello-winning YIHAA! today

Added videos to the initial post. I love how @Tisch assumed everyone would have instant recall of their previous AC or bust flops.

Not my fault if people round here don't open a HISTORY BOOK now and then!

I need to catch him up on everything Eurovision '25-related! Will start with a lesson on culturally important Maltese "singing" and go from there.

Trying to figure out the Dolly timeline is harder than keeping track of the storylines in Game of Thrones.

As far as I can tell, the O.Gs were of course Holly, Molly & Polly in 2016. (Not even getting into their government names right now)

Then by the time of Rollercoaster, both Molly and Polly had been replaced with Dolly 2.0 and Molly 2.0.

Come Habibi, and Holly 1.0 and Polly 2.0 had been given the boot, meaning the lineup was now Holly 2.0, Molly 2.0 and Polly 3.0

Flash forward to 2025, and Molly 2.0 is out, meaning the lineup is Holly 2.0, Molly 3.0 and Polly 3.0, plus a mysterious interloper named YOLLY (1.0), who's actually played by the same girl who had previously been Molly 2.0.

Whew!

 

[auretz]

Don’t forget Yolly!

Someone has actually gone to the effort of making the member timeline on wiki: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dolly_Style

 

[VoR]

I don't trust the current Polly. She's missing the strong sense of 'starved of oxygen at birth' that made Pollies 1.0 and 2.0 the clear stars of their respective lineups.

 

[VoR]

That said, I do love how the current Holly is clearly a cool 15-20 years older than the rest of the group
