DAY 36: ENDURANCE MISSION
 
Welcome, teams, to your next Endurance Mission! A few rewards are up for grabs. First, as you know, the Orange Team was eliminated. They have left behind one pyramid piece -- Knowledge -- which will be up for grabs in this challenge.

Knowledge: More than just intelligence, knowledge is the power to combine experiences with information to benefit you and others. Who will you share your knowledge with, and whose knowledge will you use?
The second prize, per usual, is the Endurance "Samadhi" -- the Buddhist term for contemplation. The team that wins the Samadhi has the option to give it to any other team they want, and what's inside the Samadhi will seriously handicap the chosen team in the next Endurance Mission.

For today's Endurance mission, we are taking inspiration from Survivor: ATRL Edition! As you may know, Endurance (the actual TV show) was based off of Survivor. I thought it would be cool to pay homage to Survivor, and what better way to do so than with a favorite challenge from Survivor: ATRL Edition -- I will give you a theme, and you will send a song that fits that theme. The theme for this round is...
Spring into Springtime!
The first day of spring just happened a few days ago in the Northern Hemisphere, and as it is my favorite season, I thought it would be a fantastic theme for this challenge! All 8 of you will individually PM me a song that fits the springtime. The song needs to lyrically present themes of spring. Here's a good description to reference:
Quote:

Spring is a great season to celebrate rebirth and new life. Pop music is the perfect accompaniment. These are songs that bring to mind: hope, joy, beauty, and the carefree spirit of springtime.

The song doesn't have to flat out state these themes, but the judges should be able to easily interpret it as such. As long as your song meets those guidelines, you should score just fine.
There is no explanation required. Your song should speak for itself. If it doesn't, then it probably isn't a good fit. PM me the EXACT video you would like me to send to the judges. If your song choice is already taken, I will PM you back ASAP to get another submission from you. Song selections are first come, first serve. Please keep your song choice a secret!
The example song for this round is "Feeling Good" by Nina Simone. Lyrically, the song represents just what I asked for.
Quote:
Birds flyin' high, you know how I feel
Sun in the sky, you know how I feel
Breeze driftin' on by, you know how I feel
It's a new dawn, it's a new day, it's a new life for me.
And I'm feelin' good.

You have 24 hours to complete this task (7:00 PM EST on Monday, March 23, 2015). The PERSON with the highest score will win the mission for their team!
Have fun and good luck!
