Previously on Round 4 of Survivor: ATRL Edition (All Stars), Round 4 boosted Team Zaid to the Top 2 for the first time since the start of the game. Team Dylan rose to 1st while Team Anna was sent to Tribal Council their first time in the bottom 2. VJoker and TheSeenScene were the victims of the Season 1 vs Season 2 vote resulting in a tie. One of them will be leaving before Round 5 results. After Tribal Council, a twist was introduced both helping and hurting the contestants. What will happen this Round?
Welcome to Round 5 of Survivor: ATRL Edition (All Stars)! Time to move on...
The theme for Round 5 is...
Imitation (The Highest Form of Flattery)
For this Round, you will each PM me a cover song. It's pretty simple. The only requirement is that the song is not a carbon copy of the original. It needs to have added something new to the song or put a modern twist on it. Also, do not use studio recordings from Reality TV Shows like the Voice or American Idol (although you could still submit a cover by an Idol if it was post Idol). I want covers by established artists. An example of what not to do would be the Dixie Chicks cover of Landslide originally performed by Fleetwood Mac. It's the same exact song with another person's voice. Try to stick to studio recordings, but if you really are passionate about a live cover, you may submit it to me with the youtube link.
Your first example is "My Prerogative" by Britney Spears which is a cover of Bobby Brown's original song.
Next we have "Lady Marmalade" by Xtina, Lil Kim, Mya & Pink which is a cover of the Labelle's original song.
And for a less mainstream approach we have "How Soon is Now" by t.A.T.u. which is a cover of the Smith's original song.
The Deadline for this Round is June 10th at 12 A.M. U.S. Pacific Time
Good luck you all once again. Remember, the 2nd post of the thread has all the links you'll need.
Once you submit a song, it's final. I recommend sending in a backup choice as well.
Isn't the point of a cover to essentially copy the original with someone else's voice though?
Let me just start packing my bags now.
Nevermind I think I found a good one.
Well I think Dylan's looking for a song that is a cover, but doesn't sound like one. If you listen to Britney and Bobby's My Prerogative, they sound different but with essentially the same lyrics.
I'm 99.9% sure MLD already took my first choice but this is a pretty easy round. Looking to get my average up. I also sent a bunch of choices just in case.
Wait, I've been ABSENT as hell but YAY @ the judges liking my entry this round I was nervous. Also, DanceForYou, I was ALMOST gonna send Lovebird but I thought it was too risky Glad you did well with it!
