Welcome castaways to your 9th Results Show! Below will be the rates of each entry from all four judges. You were all ranked from 1-16 which will correlate to a score using the list below. Your average score will be added into a tribe average which will determine which tribes are losing a member.
You will also have a 5th score determined from the Public Vote as you already know.
After I post the scores, I will give you all a few minutes to look them over before I post the final results which will include how you ranked on your tribe, against all castaways, and finally the overall tribe rankings this round.
The 6th Redemption Island duel will be up following.
Only the losing tribe will be heading to Tribal Council. However, if you placed 1st on that tribe's ranking, you are immune.
With that said, here are the scores...
Tribe Mawimba
1. Golden - Mumford & Sons - I Gave You All
Quote:
And you rip it from my hands
And you swear it's all gone
And you rip out all I have
Just to say that you've won
And you rip it from my hands
And you swear it's all gone
And you rip out all I have
Just to say that you've won
well now you've won
Quote:
Dylan - 10th - 7.5 - Golden - Pretty much any round but this round would have been a good time to use Mumford & Sons. With that said, it completes its job of building up the track to a climax though it truly did not stand out for me. The last of the good entries this round in my opinion.
Quote:
Ethan - 11th - 7 - I Gave You All - It has a really nice build but it's kind of jarring, not very catchy. It doesn't stand out.
Quote:
Yvess - 13th - 6.5 - Golden - Not too bad but not that great.
Quote:
Mario - 9th - 7.5 - Golden - Definitely different and stronger from the rest of the song. It builds up to a moment of anger(?) that it's quite swallowed down during the song, especially in the repeating of "now you've won".
Quote:
Public Vote: 11. Golden - -4 - 7
2. dwuw - Kelly Clarkson - Sober
Quote:
Wake up
Three months and I'm still standing here
Three months and I'm getting better yeah
Three months and I still am
Three months and it's still harder now
Three months I've been living here without you now
Three months yeah, three months
Three months and I'm still breathing
Three months and I still remember it
Three months and I wake up
Quote:
Dylan - 1st - 10 - dwuw - The build up is real on this one. Absolutely love the final repeated verse of the bridge. Easily one of the strongest if not the strongest bridge here. Undeniable.
Quote:
Ethan - 8th - 8 - Sober - Beautiful lyrics and nice build, but I prefer bridges that are kind of the calm before the storm of a huge final chorus, and this didn't have that feeling.
Quote:
Yvess - 4th - 9 - dwuw - My favorite Kelly song of all time. Very heartfelt and infectious. Makes me wanna cry.
Quote:
Mario - 4th - 9 - dwuw - The gradual crescendo in vocals and feelings just left me bald.
Quote:
Public Vote: 2. dwuw +5 - 9.5
3. T-Swizz - Lady Gaga - Marry The Night
Quote:
Nothing's too cool
To take me from you
New York is not just a tan that you'll never lose
Love is the new denim or black
Skeleton guns are wedding bells in the attic
Get Ginger ready climb to El Camino front
Won't poke holes in the seats with my heels cause that's
Where we make love
Come on and run
Turn the car on and run
Quote:
Dylan - 6th - 8.5 - T-Swizz - I like the bridge's lyrics and I love the second verse's anticipation. One of the good bridges of the round.
Quote:
Ethan - 9th - 7.5 - Marry the Night - I like the sound of it and it fits well within the song, but the lyrics are baffling.
Quote:
Yvess - 7th - 8 - T-Swizz - Not really a fan of this song but I agree that the bridge slays!
Quote:
Mario - 5th - 8.5 - T-Swizz - If she wrote better lyrics in the first part instead of the semi-gibberish, this would've been in my Top 3.
Quote:
Public Vote: 4. T-Swizz - +2 - 9
4. Ares - Katy Perry - E.T. (Solo)
Quote:
This is transcendental
On another level
Boy, you're my lucky star
I wanna walk on your wave length
And be there when you vibrate
For you I'll risk it all
All
Quote:
Dylan - 15th - 6 - Ares - I don't like Katy's struggle vocals on this. It's a cute moment but it's so minimal in production I'm wondering why you'd send it in after my task talked about build-up and climax?
Quote:
Ethan - 1st - 10 - ET - This is a perfect bridge to me. It slowly builds and it's just so obviously building towards an explosive chorus. This was one of the first great bridges I thought of when I saw this round theme.
Quote:
Yvess - 12th - 7 - Ares - Its really hard to stand out this round. And E.T's bridge isnt the highlight of its totality as a song.
Quote:
Mario - 14th - 6.5 - Ares - This would've been better if done with actual powerful vocals.
Quote:
Pubic Vote: 10. Ares - -3 - 7.5
5. Bloomers - Taylor Swift - Out Of The Woods
Quote:
Remember when you hit the brakes too soon?
Twenty stitches in the hospital room
When you started cryin', baby, I did, too
But when the sun came up, I was lookin' at you
Remember when we couldn't take the heat
I walked out and said, "I'm settin' you free,"
But the monsters turned out to be just trees
And when the sun came up, you were lookin' at me
You were lookin' at me
You were lookin' at me,
I remember, oh, I remember
Quote:
Dylan - 8th - 8 - Bloomers - I find this bridge to be overrated though I do think it is good. Taylor just doesn't have that powerful voice I was personally looking for. Solid.
Quote:
Ethan - 2nd - 9.5 - Out of the Woods - Such a standout bridge! I go HARD when it gets to this part, it's really intense and then perfectly soft leading right up to the huge final chorus. I also love Jack Antonoff's background vocals.
Quote:
Yvess - 3rd - 9 - Bloomers - I totally enjoy the bridge of OOTW more than the chorus. So yeah, the bridge truly is the highlight of this song
Quote:
Mario - 8th - 8 - Bloomers - I love how there's this sense of urgency through the bridge that explodes in the final chorus.
Quote:
Public Vote: 5. Bloomers - +1 - 8.5
6. Sebas - Lady Gaga - Judas
Quote:
Ew
In the most Biblical sense,
I am beyond repentance
Fame hooker, prostitute wench, vomits her mind
But in the cultural sense
I just speak in future tense
Judas, kiss me if offenced,
Or wear an ear condom next time
I wanna love you,
But something’s pulling me away from you
Jesus is my virtue,
Judas is the demon I cling to
I cling to
Quote:
Dylan - 5th - 8.5 - Sebas - Questionable lyrics but the second verse is a great example of build-up for a final chorus.
Quote:
Ethan - 10th - 7.5 - Judas - I HATE the beginning part, it just isn't catchy to me. However, the second part is so perfect, I love the way it sounds and builds.
Quote:
Yvess - 14th - 6.5 - Sebas - I like some parts of Judas and the bridge works averagely.
Quote:
Mario - 3rd - 9 - Sebas - The bridge has always been the highlight of the song for me. Starting from the iconic "EW" which breaks down the song through the little rap and finishing with that strongly-felt "I-cling-to!".
Quote:
Public Vote: 3. Sebas - +4 - 9
Tribe Dalgani
1. Element - Demi Lovato - Heart Attack
Quote:
The feelings got lost in my lungs
They’re burning, I’d rather be numb
And there’s no one else to blame (no one else)
So scared I take off and I run
I’m flying too close to the sun
And I burst into flames
Quote:
Dylan - 4th - 9 - Element - One of the best bridges in recent pop music. Easily the highlight of the song as well as the climax of it. Demi's vocals are amazing at their best.
Quote:
Ethan - 12th - 7 - Heart Attack - It just isn't significant to me at all, it feels like it's just there. I have never been able to understand what she's saying. The only part that makes it stand out is the final "flames" that is insane.
Quote:
Yvess - 10th - 7.5 - Element - Builds up very well!
Quote:
Mario - 7th - 8 - Element - Good one. I especially love the contrast between the belting that almost turns into screaming of pain at the end of the bridge with the soft reprise of the final chorus,
Quote:
Public Vote: 8. Element - +0 - 8
2. Bey_RihStan - Rihanna - Fire Bomb
Quote:
Baby we were killing them
They couldnt handle the millionth degree
We were criminals
As we were burning
The world called the police
Fire department, ambulance
You can call me crazy cause I believe
The only move for me and you
Is to go out blazing
Quote:
Dylan - 7th - 8 - Bey_RihStan - I feel you got snubbed a bit. Rihanna doesn't give bridges very often and this is one of the few I feel she really put her heart into which is great to see.
Quote:
Ethan - 13th - 6.5 - Fire Bomb - Nothing stands out about this bridge to me. Rihanna sounds good, but nothing special. The lyrics aren't especially good, the energy and sound isn't exciting. It's not a bad bridge, but it's not great.
Quote:
Yvess - 11th - 7 - Bey_RihStan - An ok choice.
Quote:
Mario - 12th - 7 - Bey_Rihstan - I LOVE this song but the bridge, in my opinion, doesn't differ that much from the rest of the song
Quote:
Public Vote: 11. Bey_RihStan - -4 - 7
3. wesleywalrus - Lana Del Rey - Ultraviolence
Quote:
We can go back to New York
Loving you was really hard
We can go back 'til it's dark
Where they don't know who we are
Heaven is on earth
I will do anything for you, babe
Blessed is this, this union
Crying tears of gold, like lemonade
I love you the first time
I love you the last time
Yo soy la princesa, comprende mis white lines
'Cause I'm your jazz singer
And you're my cult leader
I love you forever,
I love you forever
Quote:
Dylan - 16th - 5.5 - wesleywalrus - I have to agree with the public on this one. Lana herself could have done very well this round had you chosen Without You or another one of her bridges but this goes nowhere for me. It sounds like it could very well be a regular verse.
Quote:
Ethan - 16th - 5.5 - Ultraviolence - I like the spoken part, but it doesn't feel like a necessary moment the song needed, it's very same-y and doesn't excite me for the chorus at all.
Quote:
Yvess - 16th - 5.5 - wesleywalrus - Sorry. I just find this song the weakest out of the bunch.
Quote:
Mario - 15th - 6 - wesleywalrus - Same problem as Bey_Rih, except here I didn't even like the way the first part of the bridge was so whispered to almost be incomprehensible.
Quote:
Public Vote: 16. wesleywalrus - -10 - 5.5
4. Mariah4life - Rihanna - You Da One
Quote:
And yes I'm kinda crazy
That's what happens baby
When you put it down
You should've give it to me
Good like that
Should've hit it like that
Had me yellin' like that
Didn't know you would've had me coming back
You the one that i'm feeling
You the one that i'm loving
Ain't no other, that's like you
No there's just one, one, one
No baby just one, one
I bet you wanna know
Quote:
Dylan - 13th - 6.5 - Mariah4life - I actually enjoy this bridge to an extent but it is one of the weaker entries in my opinion as well. The breakdown is nice but I don't think it builds up to anything which is what I looked for on top of personal opinion.
Quote:
Ethan - 6th - 8.5 - You Da One - The beginning part builds really nicely, and the second part keeps it going and slowly gets more intense. It's a strong bridge!
Quote:
Yvess - 15th - 6 - Mariah4life - Sorry Mariah. With a strong list of songs this round, your choice just didnt stand out well.
Quote:
Mario - 16th - 5.5 - Mariah4Life - The bridge has always been the dullest part of an already pretty dull song so, yeah, I'm confused by this choice.
Quote:
Public Vote: 15. Mariah4life - -8 - 6
Tribe Strujala
1. prezli - Ashlee Simpson feat. Tom Higgenson - Little Miss Obsessive
Quote:
It's like a fairy tale without a happy ending
But then again maybe we are just pretending
Why does it have to be so unfair?
Tell me that you care
Quote:
Dylan - 9th - 7.5 - prezli - I feel like choosing an Ashlee Simpson track that's not on Autobiography was sort of a death statement but I actually like this bridge. It serves its purpose of building up though Ashlee was never the best vocalist.
Quote:
Ethan - 14th - 6.5 - Little Miss Overdose - It feels very short and insignificant. It's not bad, but I have already forgotten it and I just listened to it seconds ago. It's not catchy or especially lyrically significant.
Quote:
Yvess - 6th - 8.5 - prezli - I hate Ashlee. But this one surprisingly works well for me.
Quote:
Mario - 11th - 7 - prezli - I guess it works but it's nothing too outstanding.
Quote:
Public Vote: 13. prezli - -5 - 6.5
2. rl231 - Avril Lavigne - When You're Gone
Quote:
We were made for each other
Out here forever
I know we were, yeah, yeah
All I ever wanted was for you to know
Everything I do, I give my heart and soul
I can hardly breathe, I need to feel you here with me, yeah
Quote:
Dylan - 3rd - 9 - rl231 - Avril has such great bridges. Yours is one of my favorites. One of her best vocal moments and definitely builds up anticipation for that final chorus.
Quote:
Ethan - 7th - 8 - When You're Gone - It has a very nice build, and while it's pretty basic outside of that, I really love the way it gets more intense leading to the final chorus.
Quote:
Yvess - 1st - 10 - rl231 - Avril has a lot of beautiful bridges and I am glad you picked this one. This is so perfect since it truly prepares the song to reach the final chorus and you can feel the emotion through Avril's powerhouse vocals. Congratulations!
Quote:
Mario - 2nd - 9.5 - rl231 - One of my favorite bridges ever. It builds up so greatly.
Quote:
Public Vote: 5. rl231 - +1 - 8.5
3. Rider - Christina Aguilera - Hurt
Quote:
If I had just one more day
I would tell you how much that
I've missed you since you've been away
Oh, it's dangerous
It's so out of line
To try and turn back time
Quote:
Dylan - 2nd - 9.5 - Rider - One of my personal favorites. Vulnerable Xtina is always nice to see and it really is the build up to the climax of the track. Bravo.
Quote:
Ethan - 4th - 9 - Hurt - Her vocals are so good! I love how it builds and then gets soft just at the end. It's an intense moment in an already emotional song.
Quote:
Yvess - 2nd - 9.5 - Rider - Xtina ruled last season's Bridge round. I honestly thought of sending this song during my season. The dramatic lyrics and vocals blended well!
Quote:
Mario - 1st - 10 - Rider - This PUNCHES me so hard every time I listen to it. Queen can't do no wrong, except Lotus.
Quote:
Public Vote: 1. Rider - +6 - 10
4. Ivory. - Avril Lavigne - Innocence
Quote:
It's a state of bliss, you think you're dreaming
It's the happiness inside that you're feeling
It's so beautiful it makes you wanna cry
It's a state of bliss, you think you're dreaming
It's the happiness inside that you're feeling
It's so beautiful it makes you wanna cry
It's so beautiful it makes you wanna cry
Quote:
Dylan - 14th - 6.5 - Ivory. - You chose a girl with great bridges but didn't choose the right one. This is a cute bridge but Avril has far better and unfortunately so did the other contestants.
Quote:
Ethan - 3rd - 9 - Innocence - I have never heard this song, but the bridge made me want to! I love the groove of it, it feels really severe. I love that she doesn't get too screams until the very end.
Quote:
Yvess - 5th - 8.5 - Ivory. - I will always stan for this song. I love how this bridge makes you feel the sadness and happiness at the same time
Quote:
Mario - 13th - 6.5 - Ivory. - This is really cute but I hate how overly repetitive it is.

Hello, genetic fail & Guero to the 6th Redemption Island Duel. Last duel, genetic fail came out victorious eliminating Capital B in the process. Can he do it again? Or will Guero end his Survivor journey as we know it? Now is the time one of you moves forward in the game, and the other is officially sent packing.
Let's see what you both brought to the table this duel...
The Entries:
1. genetic fail - Adele - Rumour Has It
Quote:
All of these words whispered in my ear,
Tell a story that I cannot bear to hear,
Just 'cause I said it, it don't mean that I meant it,
People say crazy things,
Just 'cause I said it, don't mean that I meant it,
Just 'cause you heard it
Quote:
Dylan - 12th - 7 - genetic fail - This is just an okay bridge for me. I like the instrumental build up of the track but with a voice like Adele's, there could have been more of an anticipation.
Quote:
Ethan - 15th - 6 - Rumor Has It - I have never cared for this song, I find it so boring, and this bridge definitely contributes to that. It doesn't feel like it's building up for anything.
Quote:
Yvess - 8th - 8 - genetic fail - Adele slays and everyone has to deal with it.
Quote:
Mario - 10th - 7.5 - genetic fail - The change of tempo brings a good moment to the song but it slows it down rather than building the anticipation for the final chorus.
Quote:
Public Vote: 5. genetic fail - +1 - 8.5
2. Guero - Taylor Swift - Wildest Dreams
Quote:
You see me in hindsight
Tangled up with you all night
Burning it down
Someday when you leave me
I bet these memories
Follow you around
You see me in hindsight
Tangled up with you all night
Burning it down
Someday when you leave me
I bet these memories
Follow you around
Quote:
Dylan - 11th - 7 - Guero - It's a cute bridge but we had some great entries this round and this one got pushed back to make room. I like the lyrics but my problem with Taylor is she needs large production on her bridges since she's not a powerhouse vocalist.
Quote:
Ethan - 5th - 8.5 - Wildest Dreams - I love how quick it is and I really go hard when it comes on, but the bridge just leads to a light, suspended chorus and I wish it had more of a gradual build to a big last chorus.
Quote:
Yvess - 9th - 7.5 - Guero - Taylor Swift - Wildest Dreams
I love this bridge!
Quote:
Mario - 6th - 8.5 - Guero - Taylor definitely knows how to write a good bridge. Even not being her best one, this still is much better than some other artists' best bridges. Good choice.

Winner
Guero - 7.8
You've won your first duel of the season, Guero! It wasn't a terrific round for you or genetic, but you managed to have the higher average score in the end by a tad.
Eliminated:
16. genetic fail - 7.4
genetic fail - After two duel wins, your streak has come to an end. You score averagely much like Guero, but he managed to take the win over you in the end. On the bright side, you improved your placement by three positions going from 19th to 16th during this process. However, your journey on this season of Survivor is officially over. Thank you for partaking this season and doing your best on Redemption Island. Best of luck to Beauty and the Geek as well!
Hello Tribe Dalgani! You guys are currently heading to Tribal Council so I will be awaiting your votes. However, I need you guys to also send me something else when you send your votes in.
In Survivor, it is extremely rare that you're going to have a tribe of 6 competing against a tribe of 3. Obviously the less members you have, the less room for error there is.
I want to even out the tribe numbers in a way that will help out the soon to be three remaining castaways of Dalgani, but I also don't want Mawimba who has earned the amount of members they still have to feel played against as a result.
There is a way to do this in the real tv show of Survivor and we will be following it.
It's called the....
Tribe Dissolve
In Survivor, there is a method of tribe reorganization that can work in a variety ways. We are taking the absorbed route of tribe dissolves. An absorption in Survivor involves the tribe with the lowest number of members being scattered to the two other remaining tribes.
That is what is going to be happening to the remaining three of you on Tribe Dalgani. Things haven't been going so well for you guys as a new tribe and having only three members is more of a three musketeer situation than an actual tribe.
What To Do:
Along with your vote this round, please send me a number with your vote ranging from 1-100. This will correlate to a new tribal home for Element (immune) and the other two of you who make it out of this Tribal Council.
One of you will be joining Tribe Mawimba. The other two will be joining Tribe Strujala.
This way, Mawimba keeps their number lead with 7 members while Strujala remains only one below them with 6. Mawimba started out with 6 members to begin with while Strujala was at 5 so it all works out in the end.
Hopefully that makese sense. If not, feel free to ask any questions. Thanks for reading.
