I know it was your first crack at making a trinity and everything, which makes me sad that you were passionate to play and got chopped down so early on. Thank you for playing while you did, and if you find yourself back in here another season, sign up because I think you can really pull through and slay!

If you're a bit confused and unsure of where to go of this already, that's precisely the point! This round is quite open-ended, because an "anthem" can be anything. It can be the sound of a social movement or it can just be a cute, empowering jam that makes you feel unstoppable. But one thing all anthems do is stand for something: put themselves in a pool of other anthems, create their own lane of anthem-hood or pay homage to something through the music and lyrics.
Try thinking outside of the box. If you think someone might be using a song, mostly likely they will be.
You should also think of connecting your anthems in more than one way. Meaning, don't just pick three anthems at random, instead choose anthems that relate to each other while relating them back to yourself.
Anthems are EVERYWHERE, y'all. Be open minded! It's part of the fun of the game, YOU decide what works.
Literally anything with, like, an explosive chorus is a good fit for this round, really
I'd give some more examples but I don't want to take any ideas from y'all, so I'll just say good luck!
And a shame to everyone who used We Can't Stop last round rather than this round
Sidenote: averages (which are a part of this game, underlying) will be coming before entries are posted.

Great advice, as usual. Hear what YSL tells you, contestants!
There are other types of anthems, though!
I can name many songs from AlunaGeorge's album that would work in this round, for example.
Just be creative. You'd be surprised what will work. There's no specific criteria to shape an "anthem" here.
If you're gonna keep to one style of theme for your songs etc: Pop, "hipster", rap, whatever its gonna get old really quick and you'll find yourself at the bottom. Try to explore outside your comfort zone is what we look for sometimes, which is why we have the Me trinity to see what you like.

But I want to do something the judges will agree on.
