Welcome castaways to the 7th results show of the season! Below will be your individual scores from each judge. After those are announced, I will post your final team averages as well as other statistics for you all to look at. The lowest final team average will be heading to Tribal Council to send one of their members home.
The Merge will be effective this results show so you will all be listed like you were in the Merge announcement.
Also, both K$Ellie & Lucky#17 will have one point deducted from their final scores for being tardy this round.
For a general idea of what each score means, I have a little explanation for each one.
10 = Perfect.
9 - 9.5 = Great but not the best.
8 - 8.5 = Good but not great.
7 - 7.5 = Fits decent but something is off about it.
6 - 6.5 = Somewhat relates to the topic but falls flat for whatever reason.
5 - 5.5 = Barely anything to do with the subject at all.
4 - 4.5 = Virtually nothing to do with the topic at all.
3 - 3.5 = Doesn't relate in any way whatsoever.
2 - 2.5 = Horrible but not 1 worthy.
1 - 1.5 = The worst possible example to submit.
With that said, let's get started...
Tribe Bonbondi

1. gotintoririfever1 - 1998 - Celine Dion - My Heart Will Go On
Quote:
|
Songs may come and go but there is one song that truly defines a year. 1998; the year for resurgence, rejuvenation, and domination. A musical celebration spawning classics from diverse artists in different fronts in music making it a very memorable year for everyone to witness. The song My Heart will go on by Celine Dion the soundtrack from the blockbuster film Titanic is the epitome of an iconic song. The romantic ballad became one of the bestselling song in history topping charts across the globe, racking up awards and influencing the whole love ballad for tragedy song in films.
|
Quote:
|
Dylan - 10 - Pretty much the definition of an iconic single as you said. Also, you're very good at elaborating which will definitely help you in the Merge assuming you're there. Very nice choice. Loving the improvement from R1 to now!
|
Quote:
Ethan - 10
Another song that just transcends being a radio hit and just affects everyone in the year one way or another. Between being in Titanic, being such a massive movie, and just being a huge (and amazing) song itself, it's perfect for this year.

4. Anna - 9
You are right, this song inspired the soundtracks to Pearl Harbour and Armageddon. Nice find on Wikipedia.
|
2. prezli - 2013 - Macklemore & Ryan Lewis feat. Wanz - Thrift Shop
Quote:
|
I was stuck between two songs, "Wrecking Ball" and "Thrift Shop", and I decided to choose this song because it definitely opened new doors in hip hop music and the independent music industry. "Thrift Shop" became the first song in 20 years to top the Hot 100 without the support of a major label. The hip hop artists received more attention in 2013 and 2014 because of this new wave. This song inspired the mainstream music, not only the music video itself. I'm sure "Fancy" by Iggy Azalea wouldn't be as big as it is without Macklemore and Ryan Lewis.
|
Quote:
|
Dylan - 8 - I can't deny the song wasn't one of the songs if not the song of 2013. However, the explanation lacked and the Fancy point was really unimportant when you're defining 2013 when Iggy wasn't even a thing. Great choice. Bad explanation.
|
Quote:
Ethan - 8
You focused on its impact on songs like Fancy, which wasn't 2013, so it's success is irrelevant. So your explanation didn't do you any favors, but as far as its impact on music in 2013, I see it because of how many other massive songs he had and how the white-faux-urban style became popular.
|
Quote:
3. Anna - 4
Your performance in this game has been a complete train wreck so far. Let me get you a ladder for that reach that Macklemore paved the way for Fancy’s success. We all know that happened mostly due to the infectious hook and the song has a completely different vibe from Thrift Shop. Thrift Shop was the biggest selling single of 2013 but that’s about it.
|
3. Speezy - 2012 - Rihanna feat. Calvin Harris - We Found Love
Quote:
2012..
We Found Love was released in 2011 but it set a trend in 2012 also it became a number 1 single in 2012. Rihanna and Calvis set a Europop trend in 2012. Top Ten songs like Nicki's Turn Me On & Starships, Part of Me(Katy), Titanium(David)and Scream(Usher) takes after some of the repetitiveness and catchiness in Rihanna's song We Found Love. It ended up being #8 on the year end 2012 chart AND CHARTED IN 2014 @ #100 (CZECH REPUBLIC)
It also became her biggest #1
it also opened up doors to Diamonds
|
Quote:
|
Dylan - 8.5 - Weak explanation but the song primarily speaks for itself. It was bigger in 2011 but in terms of influence, it was the start of the mainstream success of DJ's such as David Guetta and Calvin himself. Good.
|
Quote:
Ethan - 6
I think you tried to use the same formula Dylan gave in the example and it just doesn't work. 2012 had some MASSIVE songs like Call Me Maybe, Sexy and I Know It, We Are Young, Somebody That I Used to Know, etc. but none of those were inspired by We Found Love. There were better choices, and your explanation was weak (why do I care if it's charting this year?).
|
Quote:
3. Anna - 9
Good choice, it’s influence is undeniable as it was the song that introduced Calvin Harris and EDM into today’s pop landscape.
|
4. holyground - 2003 - 50 Cent - In da Club
Quote:
|
The early 2000s were the times when R&B and hip-hop dominated mainstream music everywhere, eventually peaking in 2003/2004. In da Club is the definition of ubiquitous in 2003. Featuring a simple yet catchy beat, the riff is something you most definitely have heard of. Being the prime example of a catchy party hip-hop track, it most definitely had spurred artists to create such effortless songs with infectious hooks in the next few years. Till now, 50 Cent is still regarded as a hip-hop icon with how he changed the hip-hop landscape with just his first single.
|
Quote:
|
Dylan - 9 - Huge song. The biggest of the year probably. 50 was a big fad then. But aside from that, that whole urban wave was being ridden with even the pop girls going urban to keep in sync with what was in. Good choice!
|
Quote:
Ethan - 10
50 Cent ruled the year, he had the top selling album of 2003 and songs like that became such staples this year and years after. The beat and hook became much more important than the real lyrical content. Perfect choice! Music like this wasn't my 2003, but for the rest of the country it definitely was!
|
Quote:
1. Anna - 6
You basically said it yourself, this song embodies the peak of early 00s hip hop/RnB. It didn’t introduce anything new and I don’t think it influenced anyone either. It was just a massive hit in itself.
|
5. Ivory. - 2009 - Lady Gaga - Bad Romance
Quote:
|
2009 was the year of Lady Gaga, with 2 #1’s and 5 top 10 songs on the BB Hot 100, you just couldn't escape her no matter how hard you tried. Of those 5 hit singles the biggest and most impactful is undoubtedly Bad Romance. The video is probably the most iconic video to come out of the last five years; the 604,352,014+ views speak for itself. As the peak of her creativity and success, the song and video cemented Lady Gaga as an undeniable pop icon and made the whole world stan for at least a second.
|
Quote:
|
Dylan - 6 - I think Just Dance or Poker Face were the more plausible options here. Bad Romance was huge and it did cement Gaga as a force to be reckoned with but it was released very late into the year which is my problem since I don't see how it necessarily inspired that year. It added on to what she had created but it wasn't the trendsetter of 2009. If anything, it left an impact on 2010.
|
Quote:
Ethan - 9
As you said, Gaga was music in 2009. She was unstoppable, and although this song didn't start that trend, it was a big part of her domination.
|
Quote:
2. Anna - 2
I don’t know what you did here, Bad Romance was not Gaga’s biggest hit in 2009 and overall it was not as influential on the music scene as Pokerface or Just Dance imo.
|
6. Yvess - 1991 - R.E.M. - Losing My Religion
Quote:
The biggest musical legacy of 1991 was thebreakthrough of "Alternative Rock" to mainstream . It started with this song released in February 1991.
The Grammy Award-winning song garnered success in terms of charts, sales, critical reception, social relevance & cultural impact. The song and its music video's unusual success at that time paved the way for Alternative Rock to gain popularity beyond its original fanbase, influencing other rock bands' success such as Nirvana, Pearl Jam, etc. by late 1991.
Even now, it sounds remarkably fresh, Truly a mark of an iconic song that defined an era.
|
Quote:
|
Dylan - 9 - So glad you changed your entry as it probably would have resulted in your departure this round. I like the choice because it was actually though through rather than just looking at wikipedia's biggest hit list and choosing the number one song. Great effort.
|
Quote:
Ethan - 9
Not what I excepted but I can see where the influence is for that song, especially with the other artists you mentioned dominating the year as well. Good choice!
|
Quote:
1. Anna - 7
A risky choice but I love your take on this and REM can be seen as one of the pioneers of the early 90s alternative/grunge movement.
|
7. Amaloner - 1995 - TLC - Waterfalls
Quote:
|
1995 was the year when RnB fully dominated the charts. So, it wasn't really a shocker that 9 of the top 10 songs in the Billboard Year-End Hot 100 singles of 1995 were RnB songs. This song, Waterfalls, placed second that year. I chose this song not just because this is arguably the group’s signature song but this song influenced some songs which talk about issues of illegal drug trade, promiscuity and HIV/AIDS. Gangsta's Paradise by Coolio is an example of this, which actually topped the list that year.
|
Quote:
|
Dylan - 9 - I liked how you went from a musical explanation to a cultural explanation. R&B was definitely the thing back then with the rise of the R&B icon Brandy. I think Waterfalls is a nice representation of that year. I'm actually glad you didn't choose Scream just because of it being a huge collab. Nice job!
|
Quote:
Ethan - 10
I like your explanation, it shows you have a handle on the year as a whole and made an informed choice. The mid-1990s were so R&B dominated it makes me sick to know I was alive then.
|
Quote:
5. Anna - 4
I don’t really see this song in particular representing 1995, or influencing any other releases of that year notably, especially not that Coolio song you mentioned. It might have broken a taboo with the video but that doesn’t automatically make it influential.
|
8. Gabegabe - 1989 - Madonna - Like A Prayer
Quote:
|
Iconic song with controversy by religious groups that shaped and inspired future music.
|
Quote:
|
Dylan - 7 - It sucks you chose to put no effort into this explanation because you actually chose nicely. However, I'm not going to give a good score to something so uninspired. A missed opportunity for you but luckily a good song!
|
Quote:
Ethan - 7
Shaped future music? Sure. Shaped music from 1989? Not sold on it.
|
Quote:
7. Anna - 5
Meaningless explanation with no content by a contestant who has failed to leave a lasting impression so far.
|
Tribe Brilando

1. Truth Teller - 1986 - Madonna - Papa Don't Preach
Quote:
|
Madonna's Papa Don't Preach was the ultimate song of 1986! It topped the charts in the US, the UK, Australia, Canada and across Europe. It changed the pace of the industry, as the previous #1s that year were all slow jams. It was also a cultural phenomenon, since it tackles teen pregnancy, a controversial taboo at the time. In a decade when pop hits were meant to be just catchy and fun, this track was meaningful and empowering, opening doors for Cindy’s True Colors and Janet’s Nasty, which smashed soon after.
|
Quote:
|
Dylan - 8 - Obviously me and the other judges don't know music from the 80's so it causes your explanation to matter more than others. Luckily, your explanation is good and believable. Obviously it was a big hit and your explanation seems to back up it's impact.
|
Quote:
Ethan - 8
I don't remember 1994, but taking a look at the year, this song certainly seems to be a big one. I'm not sure that it really affected other music of the year, it just seems like one in a string of similar hits, but it encompasses the feeling of the year just fine.
|
Quote:
Anna - 8
I can see where you are coming from, your explanation is plausibe. It’s difficult to talk about music back then because I don’t really know who and what were the big influences and the music scene was also much more diverse back then, but your entry is believable.
|
2. Lucky#17 - 2006 - James Blunt - You're Beautiful
Quote:
|
Aside from being a #1 smash, James Blunt helped start a trend of Pop-Rock domination in the year of 2006 that was able to coexist with Hip-Pop. "You're Beautiful" paved the way for other Rock-driven Pop smashes "Bad Day", "What's Left of Me", "Chasing Cars", "How to Save a Life" and more. The song stands high and proud at #4 on the 2006 Billboard Year-End chart, and is still recognized to this date.
|
Quote:
|
Dylan - 7 - The rock influenced sound did rise this year so I see your point in how this was the first song to kinda break into the urban era and inspire future releases. However the song was released in mid 2005 worldwide except the US which makes it hard to believe the song defined the year of 2006 on a global scale. However, as I said earlier, one point will be deducted from your final score for being way late.
|
Quote:
Ethan - 10
I wasn't sure at first, but you convinced me and looking at the hits of the year, it definitely is 2006 in a song. Perfect choice!
|
Quote:
Anna - 4
My problem here is that this song was released and smashed everywhere mid-2005, apart from the US which got it 6 months later. So I don’t think this song represents 2006 very well.
|
3. Bey_RihStan - 2005 - Mariah Carey - We Belong Together
Quote:
|
I've chosen "We belong together" as my Entry to represent 2005, because not only was the song the #1 song of 2005 & #11 on the all time chart, but I feel that it was definitely one of the most defining songs of 2005. It inspired many ballads to follow it (Be Without You) & 2005 was Mimi's year.
|
Quote:
|
Dylan - 8 - It really was the song of 2005 but like others, you failed to explain why which was the purpose of this round. You mentioned MJB but aside from that, it wasn't a very good explanation. Nice song choice though.
|
Quote:
Ethan - 10
This song was definitely 2005! Good times for the elusive chanteuse.
|
Quote:
Anna - 5
You say it inspired many ballads yet only named one.. mhh. Your explanation just wears a bit thin and I mean, ballads have been around forever so it’s not like Mariah started a trend here.
|
4. Remmy - 1997 - Elton John - Candle in the Wind
Quote:
|
Even though 1997 was filled with plenty of pep, the biggest hits of the year were actually pretty somber. Out of the top 10 year-end singles, six of them were slow (whether in ballad or R&B downtempo form.) The biggest of these was Elton John's "Candle in the Wind 1997", a tribute single to Princess Diana whom tragically passed away that same year. Its success is simply undeniable: second biggest-selling single of all time, over 33 million sales, 3.5 million first week, #1 peaks in 19 countries... stats that our faves could only wish for.
|
Quote:
|
Dylan - 8 - Honestly, your year had no real trend to it. The next trend to come was the bubblegum trend which started in 1999. This was the biggest song of that year. It didn't necessarily set a trend, but it was huge and because your year didn't really have one, I can't be mad about it.
|
Quote:
Ethan - 9
1997 was a weird year for music, it was very varied, not quite dominated by R&B like previous years and not quite year taken over by pop like in years after. This song was massive, evidentially, so although it didn't necessarily set trends, it is a big part of this year in music!
|
Quote:
2. Anna - 5
It was a big hit that year but it had no influence on the music scene whatsoever. It was a tribute, rewritten from a previously existing version of this song for a pretty particular occasion. That’s a very narrow context.
|
5. DOMINO - 1987 - Whitney Houston - I Wanna Dance with Somebody (Who Loves Me)
Quote:
I Wanna Dance with Somebody released by Whitney Houston in 1987 became not only a chart-topping song in the United States, it was number one in over fourteen countries.
In a year that was naturally characterized by rock music, this song pulled through and became big. After it has stayed at the top spot for weeks 1987 became more and more pop influenced. The success of songs like "Bad" by Michael Jackson, "Who's that Girl" by Madonna & "Faith" by George Michael were the result of this - all released after Whitney's single in the same year.
|
Quote:
|
Dylan - 9.5 - I think you finally got it right this round. I'm young and I know this song very well so it's definitely left its mark. Also, I'm a fan of your explanations which will always be helpful in this game later on in the Merge if you make it. Nice job!
|
Quote:
Ethan - 9
Rock music was definitely a strong contender but looking at the iconic songs that came after it, it shows what this song made way for. It's also one of my favorites!
|
Quote:
Anna - 8
Once again difficult to judge because I don’t know much about music from back then but you have a solid explanation that seems in line with what happened in music that year/the year after.
|
6. K$Ellie - 1994 - Ace of Base - The Sign
Quote:
I wasn't alive back in 1994 but I searched up the biggest hits that year and this came up. Obviously I heard it before and I'm sure most of you have too. The Sign topped Billboard's end year chart, came 11th in the end of decade chart and is still remembered today, so I think it represents 1994 very well .
|
Quote:
|
Dylan - 8 - One of the weaker explanations for sure. However, the song itself really did define 1994 so you got lucky with that. Unfortunately, you were way late so you'll be getting one point marked off like I said above. Nice choice. Just wish it was on time and elaborated on.
|
Quote:
Ethan - 8
I don't remember 1994, but taking a look at the year, this song certainly seems to be a big one. I'm not sure that it really affected other music of the year, it just seems like one in a string of similar hits, but it encompasses the feeling of the year just fine.
|
Quote:
1. Anna - 7
You did not say anything about how this song influenced music in general but Ace of Base have been influential so you are lucky.
|
7. EuphorianSea - 2001 - Christina Aguilera, Mya, Lil Kim, & P!nk - Lady Marmalade
Quote:
|
2001 witnessed one of the greatest female collaborations in music industry history. It contributed to society/pop culture by paving the way of being more comfortable in expressing sexuality. The song topped the charts around the world (holding the #1 position for 9 consecutive weeks on the Billboard Top 40), quickly becoming a notable global force, even going so far as to winning a Grammy for Best Pop Collaboration with Vocals. It's sold approx. 5.2 million copies WW. Lady Marmalade gave new meaning to the phrase 'girl power' and defined 2001 by setting trends later on in the millennium.
|
Quote:
|
Dylan - 7 - It was definitely a huge song and collaboration as you said. But the explanation seemed to be reaching to heights I can't see. You got the major hit part right, but the trend part is where you lacked here. Okay choice.
|
Quote:
Ethan - 7
This song stands out when I look at the hits of 2001, and not in a strong way. It is so different and unique that it can't really encompass the year as a whole. Some of the reaches in your explanation made me laugh.
|
Quote:
5. Anna - 4
I don’t really think this song influenced many artists. It was seen as a one off, some sort of supergroup/all star collab for a modern interpretation of this song complimenting the movie but nothing more. Also, it was only really a big hit in the US.
|
8. Superiore - 1999 - Britney Spears - ...Baby One More Time
Quote:
|
I know it was released in late '98 but it really blew to planetary success at the dawn of 1999. Mostly thank to its video, which played with both kid and adult audiences, BOMT rose to mega-smash status becoming a cultural phenomenon for the years to come. It created a new wave of "Lolitas" pandering to kids with bubblegum pop hits crafted by Max Martin, who took this genre to its highest popularity, yet to men's fantasies through their sexy but innocent imagery.
|
Quote:
|
Dylan - 10 - You had a pretty easy year. I think anyone who didn't choose BOMT would have to be a complete moron. It completely changed the music scene overnight while introducing a pop icon and a new genre to the world. Really loved the explanation too. Awesome!
|
Quote:
Ethan - 10
The impact this song had on pop culture and music is just unmatched since then. It was such a moment! Perfect choice.
|
Quote:
Anna - 10
Yes. This was a massive hit obviously and also opened the door for a lot of child stars that catered to both teenage and adult audiences. Good choice and well explained.

Eh, I agree that I had a pretty odd year. I think my choice was one of the best I could do, really.  Still some pretty decent scores.
SLAY at our new team staying safe  Whoops at me leaving Bonbondi right when its safety streak ended.  Good luck to y'all on the other side!
Superiore getting that EASY triple 10 for our tribe.  Can't complain about that one.

Just got to see the final average and that .1 difference is too painful.
Btw thanks ethan, dylan and anna for liking the risk that I made in my entry. It is really hard to look for a song in a year that you werent born yet. (thx dylan for letting me change my entry and responding on twitter, such a cutie xoxo)
My original entry was Nirvana but I got the red flag on it when i saw it was released by the late part of the year and it truly gained success by the next years. So glad i changed my choice.

Baby One More Time expanding its impact into saving Survivor tribes too
I know it was an easy choice but I'm happy also the explanation was well-liked.
Finally both my first thriple 10s and immunity + I broke into the overall Top 10. I guess Britney is really a saint
The new tribe Brilando slays anyway

You need to stop changing your entries. Have a proper think about them before you send, look at your options and don't rush. It gives a really bad impression and I get the feeling you're not even taking submitting your entry seriously because you know you can change it again anyway if you end up finding something better.

I apologize if you thought im not serious in this game.
I'm not trolling around with my entries, It is never my intention. I just want to clear that. I only changed my entries for the better. I did not send in late or changed abruptly. I thought about changing it multiple times first coz I dont want to cause any trouble to the host or judges.
Thanks for that advice, I'll keep that in mind and I hope I get to please you next time if I still have the chance.

Well yeah, that's the smart move on your part - you are sending in some rash decision entry to make sure you have an entry in and won't get penalised. And once you have that safety net, you start thinking about your real entry. It's unfair towards the other players who don't change entries but take time to think about them first, risking the song to be taken or missing the deadline if they think for too long. And obviously you changed them for the better, since you had more time to think about them.

Why is it unfair though? Did I break any rules tho? If thats unfair, it shouldnt be allowed in the game.
I just dont thought of it in that way. Or maybe im too dumb to not see it in that way. I dunno.
I honestly think that I didn't do anything wrong in changing entries because i stll take a risk. I dunno if my first choice is much better than the entry im gonna be using. I dont have a confirmation from anyone that it will do me good or not, So It is still a risky move that could hurt my chances in the game. But if it's wrong in your eyes or to anyone here, I sincerely apologize if you think I'm playing tricks or anything or if I ruined the game's core. Peace out.

I'll definitely miss Tribe Bonbondi though, all those times we busted coconuts together.
There's literally NO OTHER way I couldn't gotten a higher score with 2001 but having Lady Marmalade as my entry btw, oh well. At least Cursetina won't get mad at me cause I finally submitted you for a round bitch! ily
