I sat Season 9 out altogether, actually.

I don't think I'm going to post this one just out of some privacy stuff, but maybe in the upcoming rounds I'll have some that I can post. But because I like you I don't really mind sending it to you if you want to see
Jackson Posted August 28, 2017 Author Posted August 28, 2017 WINNER'S SONG @Aurora - Aftertaste “Aftertaste” inspired by 8thPrince’s “Erased” verse one I hear you’ve finally made it home, a quarter after five Your kisses on my neck conceal these disenchanted eyes Resisting your embrace, I push your briefcase to the floor Then gesture at the couch and say, “I think we need to talk.” You understand what’s coming; I can hear it in your breath Your silence only tells me you agree there’s nothing left This wasn’t what I had in mind while praying for a truce But say you’ll always care for me the way I care for you chorus I’d rather lose you now before I’m lost for someone else I’d rather hear your heartache than an echo of myself I’d rather reminisce and miss kaleidoscopic dreams Than linger on the aftertaste of tainted memories verse two I help you pack the final box, a quarter after five The moving van is waiting to erase me from your life Traces of our love enrich the tears upon my face Preserved within a photograph that’s destined to decay I send you on your way and know you’ll brave the aftermath But some things can’t survive within a box or photograph I wait until the cruel horizon takes you out of view And hope you’ll always care for me the way I care for you chorus I’d rather lose you now before I’m lost for someone else I’d rather hear your heartache than an echo of myself I’d rather reminisce and miss kaleidoscopic dreams Than linger on the aftertaste of tainted memories ▴ ▴ ▴ Commentary I chose 8thPrince’s “Erased” as inspiration because I loved the way so much care and attention was placed on otherwise insignificant details. I wanted to utilise as many of these as possible, but showcase them in a new light. “Aftertaste” shares similarities in both arrangement and writing style, but diverges from the original with its core concept of two lovers in a failing relationship. While they still love each other, they’re no longer in love with one another, and would rather end things now while they’re still on good terms than wait until things take a turn for the worse. This song was further inspired by the situation one of my co-workers has found herself in with her, now former, partner.
