ughgabriel Posted March 18, 2017 Posted March 18, 2017 @keshaspearsxo @Hug since you're the only two judges aside from @Temporal that read all my songs this season. What song would you suggest me to retouch? Hunter's choice was Prologue/Epilogue

Galah Posted March 18, 2017 Posted March 18, 2017 I'd also be interested to know which songs you'd like me to retouch @keshaspearsxo @Hug @Temporal @Citrus @swiftie13, if you have any opinion to share that is! Won't be able to meet everyone's requests obviously but it'd be nice to have some suggestions. Have an idea for my redo, although I'm still keeping my options wide open. Unsure as to what direction I'd like to take my free zone finale song, and I feel the most pressure with that one right now.

What song would you suggest me to retouch? Hunter's choice was Prologue/Epilogue Like I said, the biggest issue you faced with your self-portrait were some issues with word choice or meter that could've been easily fixed, so that'd be a good choice. If you're too worried about resending something you sent literally last round, then Prologue/Epilogue, or the one you wrote based on Shelter would both be good choices, I think. EDIT: As for Aurora, um...I'm going to be honest I can't really think of anything right now.

Sure Also, so no one has to ask - all of the songs are worth the same amount, so you shouldn't necessarily feel more pressure for that one. It's just gonna be an averaged out thing again like the semi final. Although, I see what you mean with it being your last message to us.

The word choices is something everyone has mentioned and at this stage of the competition I do realise that such a thing that was once a minor flaw is going to be my downfall if I don't work it through. At the same time, I do love using this language, so I've got a lot to think about moving forward with my writing after this competition. As far as the collaboration, I understand where it missed the mark for you. The Egyptian imagery was very surface level admittedly, but I didn't want one of those songs where the connections weren't obvious or y'all needed a degree in Egyptology to understand all the references. But it's a fair critique, similar to what Citrus said about expecting a mummy to pop up. Thanks for being such a great host-judge, I think you were questioning whether to judge as well as host at first but I'm glad you did. I missed this cause I was preparing for results but thanks Sam

That's okay, I think I'll have to reflect on all of my entries and re-read all the feedback and make a decision based on that. 20 minutes ago, keshaspearsxo said: Sure Also, so no one has to ask - all of the songs are worth the same amount, so you shouldn't necessarily feel more pressure for that one.

And yes, I'm only feeling the most pressure because the other two have a little more direction. Sometimes too much freedom can be just that, too much. Hopefully inspiration will strike. 14 minutes ago, keshaspearsxo said: I missed this cause I was preparing for results but thanks Sam
Jackson Posted March 18, 2017 Posted March 18, 2017 I already know what I want to do for each challenge, but I might get some input before I start actually writing

swiftie13 Posted March 18, 2017 Posted March 18, 2017 (edited) WOW. I am so upset at @ceremonials being eliminated. It would have been hard seeing anyone go but Ceremonials really personified what the platinum hit franchise means, personal growth. Sure, at times we all get competitive and such but after all we have through each season crafted a songwriting family who pushes for each individual to grow as writers. I was so pleased to see that after believing in him for two seasons, Cere broke out and in a big way, getting a #1 before me . His streak this season is nothing to be ashamed of and I am looking forward to what you have in store for us next season!! Again, it was a pleasure working with you and I wish it had been under different circumstances. Edited March 18, 2017 by swiftie13
Jackson Posted March 18, 2017 Posted March 18, 2017 I have one in mind, but what song do you judges/contestants think I should retouch?

ceremonials Posted March 18, 2017 Posted March 18, 2017 What's the difference between retouch and redo
Jackson Posted March 18, 2017 Posted March 18, 2017 Just now, ceremonials said: What's the difference between retouch and redo retouch = improve an old song redo = do an entire challenge over from scratch
ceremonials Posted March 18, 2017 Posted March 18, 2017 Oh 8th - "The Story You Didn't Know" Gabe - "Prologue/Epilogue" Jackson - "Welcome to My World" Sam - "Enemy" My suggestions!
