AR TP OP. Not really sure if I was prepared to read an essay. But mess, i'll give you credit for going out of your way though.

Well, not that I would've expected anyone to tie these songs together gracefully, but this entry read as kind of uninspired to me. I did enjoy it, though.

I actually really liked this. Granted, it could definitely use a lot of condensing and some plotholes are gaping (the girl is “the one your distant[!!!!!] father insisted on dating”??), but I think exploring human relations as a theme was clever. You also did a good job with making I’m In Here be about God which it definitely isn’t but you made it work! However, again, please try to be more concise, or at least have paragraph splits, and make sure all of your ideas actually work.

I don't really get it? But then I do? I'm not sure how I feel about this. I mean obv the songs are fine since you didn't pick them, but like I feel like this is too much, once again. This isn't really cohesive either imo.

 I miss reading your little write-ups. Funny how a round like this seems to cater to your style of entries, but as always, it works well. Overtly tacky at points, but hey  |

My main issue with this trinity is that you didn’t seem to interpret the songs entirely right. Hero is fine, but Creep isn’t literally about being a creep and stalking someone. As for Sex on the Regular, your passage didn’t even mention sex, and the closest thing was that they were trying to have a baby which doesn’t seem to be the type of sex the band is hinting at. I mean they could’ve just met up and starting banging frequently that would’ve been more fitting. But like the story was cute bb.

I thought you had some great ideas here, especially with finding a twisted way to fit Watch Me (Whip / Neigh Neigh) [ft. Leona Lewis] into the mix. Call me nitpicky but I don’t really know why it’s the ‘identity’ trinity? It just doesn’t seem to be about identity, you said yourself in the description it’s about this rags to riches turning-my-life-around archetype. Only the Miguel song felt connected to identity while the other two seemed to be about the other theme which gave it a disconnect.

Trap Queen being the male vs. Bat For Lashes for female  That's too good. The way you put these songs together is truly phenomenal. |

So the girl’s perspective is she wants to have a baby but the guy is focused on their crackhouse? I mean it works I guess but you have to understand that’s a little weird. Anyhow I just don’t feel like there was much substance to this trinity. I’m sorry in advance for this comment if you spent a lot of time on this concept but it’s a little bland; a happy relationship has nothing to it really. |

You got really lucky with these songs, but anyhow. I really liked this entry! It was original, it was creative and the Snapchats were a great touch. Great job.

Well to be fair this wasn’t the most intriguing concept in the world. But wow, this could’ve been a trinity where the songs weren’t preselected imo, you really made it work. All of the songs fit in the story arc perfectly and the Shania song actually became a perfect, perfect transition. Good work!

I feel like Can’t Feel My Face didn’t really contribute anything to the story? It kind of just reiterated what the Suburbs was saying which made it a little null. In terms of what the trinity was about, I don’t know there were a lot of similar trinities so it didn’t stand out that much.

Not really getting it honestly. The songs are great- but you didn't even pick them out. I just don't get what's going on d;

Adam sneaking in Amanda Blank  I don't really know if I like the idea of this one. The songs are, yes, empowering, but not that significantly? I do like that you saw the message behind the songs and went with it. |

I agree with you descriptions entirely but I still don’t really see how You Mean the World to Me tied into it. I do think that the other two went together well but You Mean the World to Me just kinda sticks out. It’s not about pride in oneself like the other two were and like the trinity was about. However your idea was distinctive from everyone else’s which I liked.
