I have a feeling I'm 9 just because Huga never seems to like my songs as much as the other judges. I could be wrong though

6 maybe? Or none.

My hints!
1. A bit basic and awkward.
2. They’re the type of lyrics that would actually touch other people.
3. Very weak chorus.
4. There was a distinct lack of flow.
5. You’re still missing crucial parts to your song like a structure.
6. I liked some of the images you were painting with the lyrics.
7. It was really cute in a love song way.
8. Really tugged on my heartstrings.
9. You have a fantastic outlook on provoking imagery.
10. The lyrical substance is really sweet and enjoyable to read.

Bar the emphasis on 7 minutes, this did the challenge requirements well.

Let me start off by apologizing to you. I have little-to-no faith in your ability when you submitted for the first challenge. I expected you to be gone within the first 3 rounds…so thank you for proving me wrong. I definitely see major improvement with this entry. I like how you referenced lullabies in the song, and the song itself is short enough to be one. The words are gentle enough to be one, too.
Brilliant.  I hope you continue to grow through this competition – I’d love to see how far you can go.

You like keeping things literal, huh? That’s really my only problem with this. Well that, and the obnoxious numbers at the end of every line. Adam did it at the end of every part of the song, and it worked out well.
I think you fulfilled the requirements of the challenge well.

Now bitch, did you really need to unapologetically slap us in the face with reality for this entry. I’m legit depressed now. This kind of reminds me of Unconditionally if Katy wasn’t singing a beautiful love song, but singing about a tragedy.
One of your best entries so far, imo.

That antidepressants line stuck out like a sore thumb. I’d like to think anything that makes someone happy is an antidepressant, so this makes it sound like you want to be depressed…and what’s with the hate of being young? I wouldn’t say adolescence is a curse…being old is the curse. I guess you have your own thoughts, though. Don’t change that just because some uglee judge on a forum game didn’t “get it”.
The structure was okay…I mean, I got it – it exists. Kudos on that.

Very weak chorus. I’m not sure if that’s the point, but it almost came off as sloppy-weak. The verses have their highlights, but even then they’re not as good as your previous work. You had some nice imagery in there like the camera effects like greyscale and sepia, but overall not your best. Sorry, man.

I wasn’t counting the words (I’m sure Nait’s got that covered), but thanks for the word count.
Now onto the entry…it’s still you. If Nait were to send me all of the entries anonymously and tell me to just guess who is who, your entry would be the easiest to pick out. You have a clear style in everything you write, which I really like.
This, I think, exemplified the challenge requirements best. We get exactly what’s going on, and you did it in under 100 words.

Reading this depressed me…Not because of the content of the song, but because this seems like a fall from grace for you. I didn’t like this nearly as much as I usually do. You’re usually one of the contestants I look forward to reading every week. It’s still nice and all, but I’m just left with this huge…”meh” feeling.
The “old/gone” part in the second verse was the worst part. It’s just so abrupt. I was expecting a rhyme. Like ‘told’, or ‘sold’…but gone popped up. I mean, it’s cute that you linked it to the end of verse one like that, but it didn’t really work well imo.

You have a fantastic outlook on provoking imagery. Your songs are very much imagery based anyway, but whatever you do you seem to pull it out so vividly, it’s amazing. A controversial topic, but an important one too. Reminded me of a type of song Lana Del Rey would sing, I guess. The lyrics are great though, well done!

That escalated quickly…lol jk I get there’s a challenge to do. The chorus was great! It’s definitely the stand-out part of the song to me. Only thing that gets me is the 2 line/3 line thing. I get not everything is 4/4, but the chorus seems like it’s 4/4, as does the bridge, so the verses confuse me in that sense.
There could also be instrumental breaks (which I know I have said plenty of times is ugly to see [instrumental break] jammed into lyrics, and that’d probably send you over the word limit (I didn’t count), so you wouldn’t do that…So, I guess I’m just saying the verses threw me off.

Eh. This was weird. The chorus was really basic, and while your verse lyrics were actually good, there was a distinct lack of flow. You would jump from several short lines to one big line which is really crammed and made it hard to read with a rhythm in my head. Could have been better, the chorus really goes nowhere. Sorry, man.

I do not see any reference to salt anywhere else in your song…or wolves…and I can’t even tell how the bridge would go. Seems like you’d either realllllly draw out the first 3 lines, or you’d have one of those disclaimer people from radio/tv ads fill in the last part of the bridge.
Sidenote: Is this song about crippling debt? Interesting thing to write about.

Pardon me, young gent, but how were the pictures of the silver screen referred to as discuses? I see you said ‘think’, which is good, because never in my days have I’d seen the moving picture referred to as a discus.
I also don’t get the structure here. 2 lines, then 3 lines, then 5 lines…it’s a pretty zany setup you got there. I’m trying to find a melody here, but no dice. I hope you improve from this.
