You need to have 3,000 total posts in order to chart. You're a bit off sis

There's some songs that are radio favorites but don't have the same effect on me when I play it voluntarily, and this is definitely one of them lately

"The beat also slays & i feels like it carries me into another dimension while I listen to it."

Although, that's probably because riding in the car while this plays gives it the full effect because of what you stated here.

God, I love this song. I loved it for the first time I heard it when MTV was playing five tracks from the album. It’s something kind of different, but still very mainstream and catchy. Now as for the explanation, it is what I told some of the others, but I wanted more. You scrapped the surface of why this is your favorite song of the year thus far, but I kind of wanted more. Other than already being a fan of both artists, what about the beat or lyrics might have struck you to make it your favorite.

Do what you want don't stop let's party... oh wait hey. Sorry I must have dozed off and dreamed of Do What U Want reading this entry. Step it up girl, where's the effort?

Originally posted by Celebrate

I like the points you made about what the stood out in the song Love Me Harder. My problem was I didn't get how you liked this song more then Compass and how you enjoyed the song in a personal connection sort of way.

Originally posted by DOMINO

Girl, step it up. You’ve been here before. The judges liked your personality and that has gotten you back into the competition but please. What is this? The first sentence made me cringe. You probably just wrote it and sent without skimming through it again. I am not impressed, miss thing.

I also find your entry to be a bit short, but that's just me :straightcroco:

Originally posted by Matty

“Rather Be” is such a great song and one of my favorites of this year as well. Now about your explanation, I was kind of wanting more. Music has the ability to capture us and there are reasons why we love songs. It could be the beat because it takes us to a certain place that makes us happy/sad/angry/all the feels or it could be the lyrics because it reminds us of certain situations. I’m not saying you had to give an entire autobiography on why this song resonates with you, but it would have been nice to understand more on why you love it.

Originally posted by Cupid

[/B]"video-game like" "vocals of the singer" - you're really selling your love of this song to me.. For future reference, use the artist name, if you put "the singer" it gives off a vibe that you don't really care about the song enough to use the artists name. Very basic. The song itself is maybe in my top 10 of the year, so at least you picked a good song.

Originally posted by Celebrate

I liked your simplistic explanation for why you like the song. It gave me a bit of perspective as to why you like the song. I would have liked to hear what this song had over the other 2 songs tied for your favorite song of the year.

Originally posted by DOMINO

Superiore, you are giving me a few reasons why this is your favorite song of this year. However, it’s not enough. I don’t know why this song is connected to you. Of course, you love how it sounds, but you only gave me a tiny bit of personal information when you mentioned the Japan-based video. It’s not bad by no means. It’s just not enough. And I have read very often that you are insecure about your entries because of the formatting - that is really nothing you should worry about. As long as your content is good enough there is no need to format your entries at all.

Originally posted by Matty

No need to apologize for being personal. Like I’ve said in some of the commentary, the reason we like what we like is because it captures us and reminds of situations or takes us to other places. Yours, unfortunately, takes you to a dark time in your life in which your heart was broken. I’m sorry about that situation by the way. When a song is able to speak to you in that way and kind of makes you come full circle in a way; it’s beautiful.

Originally posted by Cupid

Don't be sorry for making your entries personal, I for one love when contestants do that. I'd much rather hear a story about your life and why something relates to you than a generic "this is the best omg the beat slays" entry. Love your connection to the song, even though the song is generic fodder.

Originally posted by Celebrate

I liked that your entry had a grand personal touch to it. I just would have liked to have seen why you prioritized this song above all the other songs released this year.

Originally posted by DOMINO

Thank you for being honest and true to yourself. This was a good read, although I knew a lot of this due to our slightly longer friendship. I love the fact that this is shorter but you really went in and told us about the song’s connection to you. Great job, you should be proud of yourself, petiteuse.

Although I really appreciate the conciseness after attempting to read panda's entry, I'm a bit bummed you left me guessing on a few things, like, how did you run into this song? Is this an artist you're familiar with? I mean gurr -- the whole point of this subjective challenge was based on effort. Other than that, I'm kind of loving this song too. It's not boring at all, just different from the usual here. Screaming at that gif though.

I’m just gonna add this here like I’ve been adding to my social media for my friends to read, I need someone to make a parody called “Take me to CHURCH’S” like the chicken place. Lord, that’d be amazing. Now about your entry.... why? Why? Why? Why? Why do you like the song? What spoke to you about it? Stacie Orrico – There’s Gotta Be More…. (To Life).

Originally posted by Cupid

What a disappointment. Nothing you said about the song made me want to listen to it. Where's the connection? Where's the passion? You can't just say "hi this is my fav bye", that won't get you far in this game.

Originally posted by Celebrate

I liked that you were a bit animated in your entry, but I wanted to at least see things about the song you liked, how you loved the song for yourself specifically, and why you liked this song over all the other ones released this year.

Originally posted by DOMINO

No Buddy, just no. This was so short I literally got nothing. You should have told us what its difference is, and why it’s related to you.

Did not submit, so no comments from the judges.
I just want to add that I am extremely disappointed because I had high hopes for you.
You could have at least made an announcement or come to me in private and say
that you don't want to participate no longer.

Originally posted by Matty

First things first I’m the realist, I’m pretty sure the rules stated something like ‘about a paragraph’. But I would be a hypocrite if I based my opinion solely on that because in ANTM people will write long entries and I’d over look them. However, that rule can be bypassed if you write something capturing that people forget how long it is. Yours did just that in a way. The reasoning on why the song is your favorite thus far this year was laid out so well and with detail. You’re not giving out much personal detail, but capturing the essence on why you like it.

Originally posted by Cupid

Firstly, length was unnecessary. Secondly, Do It Again >>>. Thirdly, I do love the explanation, you just went on a little too much. I can see the song means a lot to you though.

Originally posted by Celebrate

You really assured me that this song is one of your favorite songs period yet alone 2014. Well done.

Originally posted by DOMINO

Slay me, Allstar.
What a journey you have created with this entry. I love it, I must say. Yes it was a lot of text but at least you were on point and explicitly told me why you love this song so much. The details were phenomenal. Just like Capital B you know your stuff. I have learned a few things about you here.
Keep up the great work.

Lana Del Rey, my lullaby musician… I really shouldn’t be listening to this at 3 in the morning while tired and trying to get my comments done. I will say, somehow this song is sounding really good right now when I originally didn’t care for it. It did take me a while to get into the album Born to Die. As for the explanation, you gave some detail on why you love the song. However, it was more on the reasons why the song is different from everything else at the time is the reason why you love the song. Hipster? At least you gave me a little something though.

Originally posted by Cupid

The song is trash but I was prepared to hear you out. "Revolutionary" "Original".. You're really testing me here.

Originally posted by Celebrate

"Amazing" I'm laughing since you placed that word a lot in your entry. When I leave your entry, I'm left lingering and wondering where your personal preferences for this song for the song of the year. I mean what did other songs like Habits and Say Something not have that placed West Coast at #1.

Originally posted by DOMINO

Since you were a contestant on season one I have to be a bit harder on you. You didn’t rock this challenge in season one and you are not rocking it now. It’s not bad, it’s not good either. You had this problem throughout the first season - floating in the middle. Step it up, e! I know you can do better than this. It’s just not on par with the others.

Hold uP. This song is a bop! I love the lyrics but reading through the lyric part of your entry, I realized I thought it said "I made a meal while I took your man" oh well that would've worked too. Appreciate the breakdown of that part of your entry too; it wrapped it all up well.

Oh, DK4/3/2. Oh, Drea. Oh, the feels. If I could dance, I would be trying to find a masculine dance routine to memorize. Honestly, this entry is so short, sweet, and to the point, but it’s like everything without the major personal aspect. I get the reason why you love the song, why It’s your favorite, and it has character that makes it stand out… outside of your signature aesthetic Melvina

Originally posted by Cupid

I know you love your formatting, but I feel like there's text all over the place I'm not sure where to look. Try toning it down a little if you're here next round. You better thank your lucky stars this ain't 2013 cuz I would have automatically evicted you if you sent that song you referred to. I'm just really confused by this, the song is bad and i'm just not feeling the explanation.

Originally posted by Celebrate

I got a great sense of what attracted you to this song as well as what stood out in the song you picked. I would have liked to hear how you prioritized this song above some of the other songs released this year and how All In A Days Work was no doubt the clear winner over the other 2014 released songs.

Originally posted by DOMINO

Great layout and slay for using that cover that I created. You are telling me why this is connected to you, which is amazing. Also you have picked out some lyrics to back up your entry which I think was a nice addition. Overall impressive. Well done.
