Will next round be just as "open" as round one or will there be more of a theme?

As far as the comeback round goes, we already have 43 contestants, so I'm not sure there will be time. If it happens, it will be in either week 4 or 5, so we have time for that. |
Whew lemme hope that I make it that far for a possible comeback round.
But thank you for the answer! Sounds good

Tomorrow morning is perfect. I have to do up an entry for another game today/tonight, so this works out nicely.

Every time I go on tinder
The cute ones swipe left on me
Is it my face, my shirt or my jumper?
I'm stuck on this swiping spree
Inspired by the cute guys who never swipe back

Very good question 
Since there are many new guys here, I will add conceptual limitations gradually, so expect a relatively open round, but not as open as round 1.
You'll also be writing short songs again because, lbr, there's 43 of you

I was a liar
I gave in to the fire
I know I should've fought it
At least I'm being honest
Feel like a failure
'Cause I know that I failed you
I should've done you better
'Cause you don't want a liar

Write how you normally would, and let whatever inspiration you have from the challenge just flow out of you as it normally would and don't worry too much, just do whatever feels natural and comes to you in your creative process. Then, when you feel you have the skeleton of a song, you can edit it and focus on all the intricate details like flow or meter. Don't keep that in your mind when you and trying to write, because I feel like that will probably block some of your creativity. Don't think about that until you have your entire song outlined. It's a lot easier to chip away at a song and give it flow, rather than concentrate so hard on flow that you lose creativity and write a bad song. Use as much time as you can throughout the week to edit it, because we literally have days. Don't worry about sending it as early as possible just because other people are. Wait literally until the deadline if you want. And obviously, I can help you edit your song in pms.

Darn, a short song
all my ideas are out again, because the song I wanted to write was a big story, it can't be told in a chorus + verse

I'd prefer a theme, too. I need rules and boundaries in my life.

I'm gonna say that with love, but please listen to me and follow my advice : you need to master the basic skills of songwriting (meter, vocabulary, pace, logical connection) before going for something this ambitious. I'm protecting you, not shading you.

There will be a theme, it just won't be too specific or restricting

THANK YOU! I'm so used to just letting everything flow out of my mind that I become nervous when I have to actually analyse my lyrics and pick at its flaws. Of course, I change them from time to time but there's always a nagging voice in the back of my mind that tells me not to. It makes sense when you put it like this. I'll definitely PM you once I finished the first draft!

Thank You!
Really surprised, but happy that the judges liked my song so much. I can't wait for the next challenge.
