I agree your decision.

[Pedro]

I need to say this before the update:

The judges were meant to rate the SINGLE CHOICE, I mean if the song was single material or not, because if it was to rate based on the judge's taste it would be unfair to many.

[Pedro]

Hello ATRL!

Welcome to the sixth round of...

"Choose the album, then a song", the name says it all. You'll have to pick an album and stick with it during the entire game, until you get kicked out. Each round there will be a different challenge and in that challenge you'll ONLY be allowed to use ONE song of the album you picked.

All the players will choose a song from the album for each round and hope he doesn't get eliminated. After that the public (50%) and the judges (50%) will rate the entries.

There is some stuff you must pay attention to:

1. You can NOT use the same song twice, you have to wait three rounds until you can use it again;
2. (NEW) You can ONLY use the same song THREE TIMES;
3. (NEW) If you fail the deadline, I will submit a random song for you from that album. If you miss the deadline three times, you're eliminated;
3. I allow you to ask for help, you can PM whoever you want, but a person can only vote ONCE;
4. The JUDGES can not be biased, if you detect any unfair move from a judge, report it to me I'll analyze the case.

With this being said let me introduce you to...

THE JUDGES
1. Pedro
2. Regina George
3. Señor Emÿro

SIXTH ROUND

In this round the contestants had to pick a song from the album they chose that fits into this category:

The Single

Now that they are all in and you, public, and the judges decided who did better, let's find out the results. Remember the judges' rates will count 50% and the public votes other 50%.

Here are the results:

1. castle13 - Taylor Swift - Speak Now (Deluxe Edition): Back To December

Votes: Twelve Off + Eight Saves = -4 Points (9th Place of the public votes)

Judges:

I actually really like this song, it’s a very pretty country/pop song and I think it’s what Taylor Swift uses the fans to, this kind of sad ballads, it reminds me of the style of White Horse, one of my favorites from her. With this being said I think this is definitely single material, at least in Taylor Swift world, it has much country elements on it and it has that catchy country point in, great job. I’d rather an uptempo from her, something like Mine or Mean or The Story Of Us, but I really think this is the most adequate.

Hell yeah! This is one of Christina’s best singles for me, it’s just so out of her comfort zone, back in 2006 she had nothing in her discography like this. What I love about X-tina is that she is not afraid of trying new stuff and this was the perfect first single, very catchy, very new, very fresh! I actually know the album and this is definitely single material!

Another epic choice! This, so far, is the one that really is single material, this had to be a single, no matter what. It has hit written all over. It’s catchy, it’s simple, it’s lovely, it’s romantic, it has really everything. This is so that kind of song that you don’t even need to think to know that it would be huge, bet even no-pop lovers love it! It’s so what people love!

Judges:

Originally posted by Pedro

So we are going into a different field here. The Fame Monster is an album that has no imperfections, every song is so different and flawless, Alejandro is no exception. It is catchy and very dark, very The Fame Monster era, sure it is a great promo for the album, but the lyrics are a little messed up, I remember my father asking me “what the hell is she trying to say with this song?” and I couldn’t answer, you know? To be honest, eventhough, of course, this song was well succeeded, I think there were better choices in her album. I bet the song Monster, for example, would have slayed as bad as Bad Romance. Nevertheless you did great and by the way I completely love this song.

Originally posted by Pedro

We are still in a dark place, if you know what I mean. Can’t Be Tamed has such a very dark side attached to it. The song is completely flawless and if we match it to Miley’s era it completely fits, Miley was trying to be less controlled she didn’t want to be ‘tamed’, so this was an amazing song for that crossover from Disney to real music, you know? The lyrics are smart and the song is so catchy, so dark and so cool, sounds so fresh, I find it an amazing choice!

Originally posted by Pedro

And here we go to the ballads that melt my heart. My mother completely loves this song, I remember everytime it aired on the radio she went crazy and put it like in the highest volume! Oh well, this song is completely beautiful and yes it was a wise single choice. The Best Damn Thing was a crossover album for Avril, she went from this wannabe punk girl to this (sorry) wannabe punk girl mixed with Pop with Girlfriend and stuff, she knew this song was very her and comparing this with Girlfriend and Hot it really is something into old Avril than new Avril in that time. I think it was a very wise choice!

Originally posted by Pedro

This song, until Hold It Against Me came, was my favorite song of all time, and to be honest, listening to it right now, I don’t know which one I prefer. This is such a masterpiece, what I love about it is the fierceness in it, the beat is sick, the vocals are kinda clean until the pre-chorus and the chorus. This song is so Britney Spears, it’s so her, you know? It ain’t some generic **** that Dr.Luke does for Katy or Ke$ha, it is gold actually, it’s so catchy and so dancy, the breakdown is epic. This was definitely an amazing choice as a single and this could easily have smashed harder than Womanizer if it was the first single, I believe.

Originally posted by Pedro

So I know you’ve used the other two singles already so you couldn’t choose them, you had to go with this one. I completely adore this song, at first I was like “okay… kelly… this is a nice song but really?” and to be honest eventhough I find it completely flawless and has a kinda catchy chorus, I really don’t think this was a nice single choice, I feel like her album has some better songs, What Doesn’t Kill You would have smashed as a first single I believe, harder than what it did. I think Mr. Know It All got a nice way in the Billboard/radio charts because she was performing it everywhere, of course people would ask for it. Don’t get me wrong, I love the song.

Originally posted by Pedro

So I sent this song in your place, so I’m basically judging myself. Anyway, eventhough it was a random choice it is pure gold, this song is flawless and actually very experimental, just like the entire Ray Of Light album. Madonna was very dark in this time so it’s hard, since she was experimenting new things, to judge anything as single material, but this one is a slow jam, easy listening, so I really think it’s a great choice as a single.

IT SHOULD BE THE RIHMIX FEATURING BRITNEY SPEARS! I’m kidding, but I’m not either. Britney makes anything single worthy to be honest, but anyway! This song HAD to be a single, it’s so Rihanna and when I heard the album for the first time I was like “Why wasn’t this the first single?”. Well it’s kinda obvious why now, Only Girl was much safer, this song has very sexual lyrics and wouldn’t sell as great as Only Girl did. Nevertheless its catchiness and the “I like it Like it” had to become legendary. This is Rihanna at her best!

Judges:

Originally posted by Pedro

Really, just for the title this song should become a single for the controversy. Lily Allen is a very different artist from everything we have in the game now, she and Gwen are the most alternative inside the Pop act so it’s hard to rate, but yes this really had to be a single. It’s radio friendly (eventhough it would never play) and very easy listening! I can't give a 10 because I feel like the '****' word would always censure this, eventhough it catches attention.

Originally posted by Pedro

This was so different from everything, but I’m so glad it was successful, eventhough it deserved much more, of course. The world is not fair. Anyway, I really think this is single material, but not safe you know what I mean? Something, maybe like Rihanna, she would have done a better job if she would release this one a little later. Hollaback Girl is a safer choice, nevertheless I think this really had to become a single! It’s epic!
