In particular, to specifically praise some passages, the third and fourth verse are like pure poetry to me. I think this is a really good take on the theme this round, and I love this personal, individualist look at things through the eyes, the emotions and the experiences of the narrator, which I found easy to connect to. While some of the emotions being portrayed are relatable and easy to understand, I love that you have framed the song in a unique way, with which your lyrics never fall into generic or common territory (though, this is something that can always be said of you as a writer, one of your biggest strengths in my opinion!). I also particularly like that although this song is very much from the emotional perspective of the narrator, it also features some commentary on the outside, for examples with the lines about the postman, which I think are timely and resonant with what is currently going on - and the overall state - of this island we (unfortunately) call home! And, personally, I did find this song to be quite hopeful even though it mentioned and was aware of past trauma. It felt to me that the song was coming from the perspective of somebody who has been through so much, that they are uncertain or slightly anxious at the concept of a new year, yet still want to remain somewhat optimistic because the truth is that you never know what life has in store (“could this year be one of facial rising? if perplexing, or if days of laugh and smiling”), even though it may come from a place of questioning due to that uncertainty I still found that to be the main message to me, personally, and I felt that it was one that was layered and I really appreciated it. Overall, this is a wonderful entry, certainly a poignant one and a standout amongst your work, I feel. If this is what you have in store for us this season, then I am excited, and believe it will be a good year after all! Your ability to understand my emotions so astutely is a rare gift I have endless gratitude for. Thank you for grasping the meaning behind the lines that I wrote - you got what I wanted to say, some of which I didn't even realise myself. And I love that u point out my postman verse! This island is mystifying ! I could cry a lot ! Thank you thank you thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is completely fine though, GH was designed with the ability to have writers come and go as they please. Not every challenge is going to be for everyone. Excited to read what you do this round!

fountain Posted January 30, 2023 Author Share Posted January 30, 2023 (edited) Round 1: New Year’s Challenge Results Lemme start this off with a big thank you to everybody who submitted! We got to read 14 brilliant songs showcasing many different emotions, concepts and interpretations of this challenge and it was amazing to see. Personally, looking across my scores, the average that I gave was an 8.9, so I hope this shows how strong I thought this first round turned out! We’re definitely looking forward to seeing what you all write next for Round 2’s Midjourney challenge, but first let’s reveal the results for Round 1! There are some really great debut scores this round and you’ve all shown great potential so I hope you’re proud of what you wrote and submitted no matter where it is that you rank. Starting off first with #14 in my next post… @Julia Fox @XO_Life @Legend E @8thPrince @DatChickDoe @JoeAg @mxtthewdelrey @Euterpe @Invisibility @Remmy @worldwide angel @beatinglikeadrum @Element @TruGemini Edited January 31, 2023 by fountain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fountain Posted January 30, 2023 Author Share Posted January 30, 2023 At #14 with a score of 6.68… @beatinglikeadrum with “The beginning.”! While this first round might not have worked out the best for you, you’ve shown your writing capability and your potential so well in the past, even scoring a #1 last season, and I can’t wait to see you return to that again when the challenge and timing is hopefully more fitting!
