Well, I think that best is still subjectable to an extent, just not as subjectable than your personal favorite.
Rating "Best" is just as subjective as rating "Favourites", to
every extent.
The difference here, which Vercetti has validated more than once in the past, is that many people choose to measure their favourites on different terms than their best. I don't see any difference whatsoever; my best music is my favourite music. If Metal music doesn't move me emotionally, it isn't good;
technical skill is another matter. You can spend all your life perfecting a guitar riff, but if it doesn't hit my
heart strings, it's been pretty ineffective. If I appreciate it on a "technical" level, then it
has hit me emotionally. Not in the tearful way, in the appreciative way.
Everything in Art is subjective. Everything. We
know nothing.
