"It has been a while... I know I shouldn't have kept you waiting... But I am here now"
Hello!
Alrighty! After a semi-hiatus the game is back and closer to the end. I had very limited access to the internet and I couldn't keep it going but we're coming back stronger than ever. We're about to say goodbye to one of you and getting to know the THREE finalists! Who's excited?
I AM! Let's get it!
During this round, the judges vote were worth 100%. After the first part of the results were announced, every contestant had the possibility of deciding on what to do with their points: (a) Add the amount of points received to their album; (b) Remove the amount of points received from the album they were representing; (c) Split the votes.
#1: 100 Points
#2: 80 Points
#3: 50 Points
#4: 25 Points
1. Element: Florence + The Machine - How Big, How Blue, How Beautiful: 80 Points. 2nd Place.
2. holyground: Ellie Goulding - Delirium: 25 Points. 4th Place.
3. igor: Björk - Post: 50 Points. 3rd Place.
4. Vulnicura: Little Mix - Get Weird: 100 Points. 1st Place.
Every contestant decided to ADD the amount to their original album.
It is time to say goodbye to the last contestant... Igor, your time in this game is up BUT you did a phenomenal job. You made me proud by being a former judge and going so far in the competition. We'll be always here for you! Please comeback!
That was the sad news BUT! We did find the THREE finalists! CONGRATULATIONS! Tomorrow I will be posting the final round! Get READY.

Hello!
Wait, what?! We reached the long-waited FINAL ROUND? We started this by the end of January and we are ready now to wrap things up. We have three very strong albums fighting for the top spot and it won't be an easy task picking among them, I can assure you of that.
This round won't be easy and will take some hard working from everyone. I thought of calling it the "Work Bitch" round but I had a better idea. Are you ready to know what's waiting for the contestants?!
1. Element: Ellie Goulding - 'Delirium'
2. holyground: Florence + the Machine - 'How Big, How Blue, How Beautiful'
3. Vulnicura: Björk - 'Post'

We surely wouldn't be living in this beautiful planet Earth if it wasn't for the oxygen or for the water it provides us but could we live in it without music? I don't think so.
Everywhere we go, there's a song playing, someone singing, someone whistling to a song, sounds of the street, sounds of the ocean... Music is everywhere and every place has its own characteristics. In her single "L.A. Love", Fergie travels around the world with a bunch of refferences to multiple countries and cities but we will take that to another level.
Earth is composed by six (main) continents. Every continent has its history, its own sounds, its own characteristics and that's what we will be playing with. You will be attaching a song from your album to each continent and explain to us why you decided to attach that specific song to that specific continent with examples. Be convincing and original.
AFRICA
AMERICA
ANTARCTIDA
ASIA
EUROPE
OCEANIA
P.S.: You do not have to limit yourself to music. You can explore other components of the country as its history, its fashion, its countries or cities. Be original.
P.S.2: You can use EVERY song except the one you got rid off. Other than that, it doesn't matter if you used the song last round, it still is eligible.
Word limit: No limit. Be reasonable.
Good Luck,
Pedro.

I have a job interview with Six Flags that day, just a heads up. I guess it's perfect timing that this is the final round, so only one more judging round.
I saved my favorite Samantha outfit for last
Very interesting theme and I can't wait to see what you guys come up with
