Note: Legend E is a flop and responded to my PM entitled SEMIFINAL ENTRIES POSTED thinking it's the finale so that's the reason for the way some of his comments are worded.
In case you didn't know, this isn't the finale. This was the Ending Trinity because it's the last round, but we still have the finale after this. Sorry if that was misunderstood.

The entry was nice and I liked each song. The theme is a bit weak but it's nothing to hate on.

What is it with you and ugly fonts? Regarding the actual entry, I get the concept, but at the same time, "Young Forever" just isn't cutting it for me and doesn't work as well as the other two. By no means a bad entry, though.

I kind of like this entry, but it doesn't really say "ending" to me, but yet, somehow it does with the theme of the songs, but it's just not so explicit, I guess. It's still a good entry, but it still lacks something that would make me say "winner".

Huga- I really do like this. I think you let the songs speak for themselves. And that's good with an overall theme like this. Kinda get those 'omg it's overrrr :(((' emotions going, ya know~?

I think that choosing movie soundtracks for this trinity was a perfect idea. Maybe a bit too safe considering all of them are from the same "Lord of the Rings"/"Hobbit" soundtracks, but who cares? It's cohesive and it fits with the theme. Congratulations!

Kitt- "I also find it kind of appropriately fitting that the concept for the music video is apocalypse themed." dd; @Lovesong. Now sis, i'm glad you decided to think outside of the box. Trying to avoid the whole cliche ending ****, like death or whatever. But I just don't know how I feel about this? A cohesive theme would have been nice, instead I felt like everything was scattered. On the bright side I think each song is great<3<3<3

I like the personal feel of your entry, and the songs aren't sonically similar. Pretty cute concept.

I mean I get what you were trying to achieve with this entry, but I don't think the choices were that great. I like the concept that you tried to aim, but it still doesn't feel like a truly "ending" trinity to me, especially with "Window Seat" finishing it, and judging by your comment, it seems more like a break. However, I still think you did a pretty good job at this entry.

Aww this is cute. Truly a reverse Warholian experience! But like..my only problem is, ending this competition with something you've already done? The songs are all fine and the overall theme is great! Love how you tied 'ending' with the competition ending itself<3

I really like the cyclic feel to your entry. Pretty clever idea, as well as using the reprise of one of the songs in your first entry. The atmospheric feel to the whole thing makes for a really nice listen. Good job bb.

As some of your fellow finalists mentioned in their posts, your concept is really awesome with this whole circular/cycle style. Thematically I'd say they are pretty okay too, maybe sometimes it's a bit exaggerated, but it's still okay overall. I'd also add that maybe it is not that cohesive musically (the Best Coast song especially), but I think it is a good entry, overall.

Another different 'ending' theme and I think it's nice. The songs aren't great but I do like how they revolve around the apocalypse.

A good entry. Diversity in the songs, and a good concept. I expected no less from you!

What a good idea to include happier songs as a sort of "happy end" theme. I know what you mean with the apocalyptic thing, but they don't even seem that bad to me haha. Yes, the St. Vincent song is the most odd one out of there, and I will continue to think it doesn't fit with the other two songs, but oh well, you've still done a good job.

What kind of horrible outcome  I'm glad you showcased that not all endings can be happy (which for the most part they aren't) So, I mean you played it safe in a way. Even though it's depressing. Overall it's great though. Each song greatly reflects your point.

I like how you interpreted the challenge and how you showed different types of ending. My problem is that it does feel kind of monotone, but it's still a great entry. Also, no shade but everyone talks about how sad "Concrete Angel" is, but I've always found it to just be a block of cheddar.

The Martina song made me cry just a little bit, such a beautifully written song. I think the entry is pretty cohesive, maybe a bit too safe with Nelly's song, but other than that, it definitely is an entry that proves your strength as a contestant in this game! Congrats.
