I might never be your knight in shining armor
I might never be the one you take home to mother
And I might never be the one who brings you flowers
DELETE THESE FORCED RHYMES ZAYN!!

No need to be confused. Just focus on the US, like Taylor

Death at Adele declining with dark red updates but Hotline Bling not even ticking up half a percent and JB falling harder

Welcome to Platinum Hit Season 8!
After the first official elimination of the season, we've had to say goodbye to 18 fantastic contestants and are down to 31. It's never easy saying goodbye to contestants, especially when the scores are so close and so high on average.
Moving along, it's time to begin the next challenge. The Quadrinity of Moonchild, 8thPrince, JakeKills and Kworb, who finished in the Top 4 of Round 1 and 2's combined ranking were all given the opportunity to select which of two challenges they'd prefer to play. I can confirm that they did reach a unanimous verdict.
CHALLENGE #3
THE TITLE TRACK CHALLENGE
One very common occurrence with albums is for the artist to select what might be their favourite song, or the song they think best represents the overall theme of their album, to title their album. Title tracks are often some of the most acclaimed or favoured songs within the fanbases of the artist. However, there are also times when an artist titles their album for other reasons, and there isn't a title track at all.
Your challenge for this week is to select an album which doesn't have a title track, and to write a title track for that album (self-titled albums are unacceptable for obvious reasons). Below is a list of 50 well-known and popular albums that don't have a title track. You must select one of these albums and confirm in the thread which title you'd like to use. Only one contestant per title, so first in, first serve!
Available Song Titles & Contestants
1000 Forms of Fear, Sia (ausdaniel)
19, Adele
1989, Taylor Swift (JakeKills)
21, Adele
4, Beyoncé
A Day at the Races, Queen
A Night at the Opera, Queen
B'Day, Beyoncé

Living Proof, Cher (Moonchild)
Loud, Rihanna (BlueM)
Love Angel Music Baby, Gwen Stefani
Multiply, Ed Sheeran (TheCheetahwings)
News of the World, Queen (8thPrince)

Plus, Ed Sheeran (keshaspearsxo)
Prism, Katy Perry (jpow)
Pure Heroine, Lorde (HausofNiko)
Rated R, Rihanna
Recovery, Eminem
Riot!, Paramore (inuborg)

True Romance, Charli XCX (Obsession)

Yours Truly, Ariana Grande (conatus)
One more thing, the song you write has to thematically fit the parent album. If you were to select Adele's "21" for example, you wouldn't be able to submit a dance bop about reaching the legal drinking age, it'd be better suited as a soulful emotional ballad to fit in with the rest of 21.

Confessions on a Dance Floor seems like a really good one to pick. Probably easier than 1989 tbh. But I'll let someone else have it.

Ugh I was about to use 1989  bitch
I'll do a Madonna album. Lemme search right quick. I might snatch COADF
Edit: I can confirm that I'm doing Confessions on a Dance Floor. My nu-disco bop is coming y'all. It can't be coincidence that I've been listening to it a lot this past week. Madge is always watching over me
