I was Top 10 for every round all the way up to the finale, where I lost to Citrus.

 

Also, I never once got a #1 that season.

That's how all of my songs have been this season.   

Except for the one I had to write super early when I went to St Lucia.

I guess we will see!

[SaintWest]

When will someone pull a me in PH, only making Top 10 once in a season yet still making it to the finale against PH greats.

Round #5 - The Judge's Pick Round

 

This week is similar to the record label challenge - each member of the panel has picked their own challenge for this week, of which you get to choose from. There will be different 4 challenges for you to pick from, and you only have to do one. Alike the record label challenge, the judge in charge of each challenge will be able to assign bonus points to those who they believe met they challenge criteria the best.

 

Our judge's picks are:

 

 @keshaspearsxo - The Dr Luke Challenge:

A repeat from last season, your challenge is to write a song out of the typical verse-prechorus-chorus-bridge-chorus pop formula, by instead writing a song without the use of repeating sections (like a pre chorus or a chorus). You may use some small repetition, such as repeating a line as part of a motif, but there should be no repeating sections. Examples of songs you could use as a blueprint are Portal - Lights, Butterfly - Christina Perri, Every Teardrop is a Waterfall - Coldplay, Bohemian Rhapsody - Queen, Hide & Seek - Imogen Heap, Under Pressure - David Bowie & Queen.

 

 @ughgabriel - The Former Self Portrait Challenge

A new challenge suggested by Gabe, the challenge here is to write a song directed to your former self. From Gabe himself:

"The purpose of this one would be to write about things that they regret, that were left unfinished, telling things to their inner child that they needed to listen when they were going through a bad situation, like finding in themselves the comfort and comprehension they needed from people on a past stage of life.

I think it could help them to heal and give closure to these open wounds they carry. And of course the song has to be directed to their former self."

 

 @Aurora - The MC Challenge

A new challenge suggested by Sam, the challenge here is to write a song using rap. From Sam himself:

"Rap writing has never been discouraged in PH but it's never been compulsory either. Done right, it can allow some of the best lyricism imo. So long as they're not trying to go for the radio-friendly "rapping about cars and chains and big asses" angle, but then again the same can be said about regular writing not relying on the cliche and drinking in the club etc."

 

 @Temporal - The Sequel Challenge

A repeat from PH9, your challenge here is to write a sequel to a pre-existing song, along the lines of what Paramore did with their songs "Let the Flames Begin" and "Part II". The song you are writing a sequel to must not be something you yourself have already written, but rather a pre-existing song by an artist which you have chosen to expand upon. Your song should remain from the same perspective as the original.

 

If you have any questions or need any clearer information feel free to ask us!

 

Rules:

PM your entry to me by this time!

Late entries will receive late penalties

@ceremonials PM me hourglass so I can stan for ha. I love songs dealing with time and always wanted to see one done well. I tried last season but it was a flop.

[Bandito]

Def doing either Gabe or Temporal's challenge.

I already have concept ideas for both written so we shall see how it goes.

[Hug]

I already did a self portrait song last round...but then again I do have an idea perfect for that challenge.  

 

I could potentially do Aurora's as well and write a diss track about that ugly mutant Whimsicott
