Kinda when the "concept" for my song that you suggested was that I "needed an explosive chorus", something practically everyone who saw my verse said, which was an obvious progression from my verse anyway. I'd actually already written a demo version of the first part of the chorus on the day the challenge was posted before I wrote that verse, I just hadn't tied the two together at that stage which is why you only saw the verse. But it was pretty obvious that I was leaning towards a volcanic theme with the use of "I've lain dormant for too long," like a dormant volcano. That's how it began, and it only progressed into a song about birds when I compared the dormant volcano to a bird without a song and decided to explore that concept a little more too.
The only idea of yours that I included was when you jokingly suggested I combine both themes and write about a phoenix, which was just combining my two core concepts together anyway. I included it in a way that was artistic, tasteful and worked with the overall message of my song, and it only featured in one line at the end of the song that was overshadowed by my song title; the little bird motif.
I'm secure in what I wrote and I never would have submitted somebody else's concepts or lyrics. Also, do I have to remind you that you contacted
me first about reading your entry, and I showed you my lyrics as a response (this is how it was with everyone I showed, btw) as a show of good faith? I never went fishing for advice.
