7 days of the week. 7 colors in the rainbow. 7 stages of grief. 7 wonder of the world. What about...




7 planets?


Round 8: Into the Stars

Discounting Earth and the underrated indie planet Pluto, there are 7 planets in our little solar system. Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. In mythology and cultures around the world there have been various meanings attached to these planets. For our purposes I have chosen a few to associate with each one. You must incorporate the themes in your song, as well as some mention of the cosmos, whether it be stars, the night sky, the sun, or the planet itself.

And here are the requirements associated with each planet:

Planet	Symbol	Symbolic Attributes	Example
Mercury		Intellect, communication, understanding
Venus		Beauty, harmony, attraction
Mars		Energy, vigor, initiative
Jupiter		Belief, travel, expansion
Saturn		control, deep study, fixation
Uranus		Change, invention, revolution
Neptune		Intuition, dreams, collective unconscious

To make it fair for all times zones, I'm opening sign ups for the first 4 planets right now and the last 3 12 hours from now.

Sorry I think I got there just in time TT. Although we all know you would write the better song, I really wanted it ahahah

[Truth Teller]

I think I want Neptune, but GotSkill could you explain Saturn a little bit?

WAIT : They're not open for sign ups yet

Be back in 12 hours

I wake up at like 7, so once 6:00 MTN hits (in 11 hours and 40 minutes) you can go ahead and sign up for the last 3. You don't need my permission

[Speezy]

Maybe if you submit your song and you still rank in the top 3 I can add you to this round, but have another double elimination if you make it

I said nothing about you. Fun fact: the world doesn't revolve around you and your barely-scraping-by scoring.

(Yes, I'm late, but paper #1 is done so I came to check in.)

(Also, Jackson, are you are a FM fan?? "Dreams" is one of my all-time favorite songs )

[Jackson]

No I only know the Bastille cover of dreams

[Aurora]

I'll take Mars, please!

[MattyTacos]

Can you give me a few more Venus-type songs that I can use for inspiration? Thank you.

Well, there's the non-Lady Gaga song called "Venus"

[Element]

I tend to love writing about space/cosmos/stars, so this round has me thinking already!
