Yet again, another close one. I've actually really liked #1, but there are some musical concepts in #2 I preferred. I would say that I would've liked #2 more as a composition, but the sound of its screams at some parts slightly take away from my experience with the song.
I had to value that by overall usage of interesting concepts, and
#2 was the one to come out on top with that. #1 is constant in a sense and I like that, just not enough that hooks me in, even though i do love the sound of #1.

oof
Okay, so #1 here is pretty decent as far as the guitarwork goes. The vocals are alright and somewhat blend in, so it doesn't detract from the song or anything. It does seem a bit mediocre for what it does, though.
Then there's #2, with some pretty good instrumentation, it sounds nice, even if there isn't much inherently interesting, it's a familiar and nice arrangement. The thing about this one is the way the vocals are sung, and personally, it didn't work out that well. I do appreciate that it help set up a nice melancholic mood, but it's... well, something I'd be conflicted listening to. I do like how it ends, with a nice piano outro.
On second thought, I think I can get used to the vocals, it was just a little off-putting for me initially is all.
A bit hard to gauge. I feel like I should know enough about your taste by now but then here I am struggling to see what you'd prefer ( >~<)
#2? I dont know how you'd feel on the vocals for that. #1? Well, I'm not sure whether or not it's interesting.
hOlY sHiT this is difficult
I'll go with #2 as a quick guess, but the vocals are oof.
