fountain Posted March 3, 2017 Author Share Posted March 3, 2017 (edited) Round #10 - The Dr. Luke Challenge What is Doctor Luke known for, other than abusing people? Repeating his hits. Your challenge this week is to write a song without the use of repetition - as in, no verse-pre-chorus-verse-chorus-bridge-chorus formulas this week. You can still have sections to your songs rather than in being one lump of text - and you can still have some minor repetition (eg. you could repeat a line) but no sections which repeat throughout the song such as a chorus would. It's kind of hard to explain, so if you're stuck wondering just ask in the thread or pm me on what I think. Here are a few various examples of what I'm expecting, to make it more clear hopefully: Lights - Portal Christina Perri - Butterfly Coldplay - Every Teardrop is a Waterfall Queen - Bohemian Rhapsody Imogen Heap - Hide & Seek David Bowie & Queen - Under Pressure What I would note from these examples is how different these songs all are. You have ballads, pop, rock, etc. - you aren't stuck in a box at all stylistically. Rules: No repeating sectionsPM your entries to me by this time! If something stops you from submitting on time, ideally keep me updated.

fountain Posted March 3, 2017 Author Share Posted March 3, 2017 Also sometimes a weak chorus can really drag a song down (see: the controversy over Jackson's Bottle) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fountain Posted March 3, 2017 Author Share Posted March 3, 2017 uh I just realised Halsey's iconic smash critically acclaimed song Is There Somewhere kinda qualifies for this challenge too (if you ignore that she repeats the last verse twice and just imagine she only put it in once) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hug Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 I wanted to share my chart runs from the lost seasons, because I want everyone to know how good I was This one was Season 2, the one I "won" This one was Season 4, where I got eliminated at the semi-finals. This season was different in that the judges went by ranks instead of scores, so basically, the LOWER the number, the better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
