I feel like the main point of the reviews is that you're getting 5 completely different (most of the time) opinions about your entry, so you know you've written a masterpiece when 5 different people praise you. Other than that, if the review includes advice other than feedback, you can choose if you want to follow it or not. Also, if the reviewer points out something specific (not "I don't like the verse", more like "I don't like how that word works" or "I don't like one specific thing about the execution"), you can re-read your song and see if you feel that way too, like pears did with his entry.
