Welcome castaways to the 3rd results show of the season! Below will be your individual scores from each judge. After those are announced, I will post your final team averages as well as other statistics for you all to look at. The two lowest final team average will be heading to Tribal Council to send one of their members home. In total, two of you will leave.
Anna had a little crisis to deal with so her commentary will be mostly only scores. You can ask her for an explanation if you really want to know why you received whatever score you received.
For a general idea of what each score means, I have a little explanation for each one.
10 = Perfect.
9 - 9.5 = Great but not the best.
8 - 8.5 = Good but not great.
7 - 7.5 = Fits decent but something is off about it.
6 - 6.5 = Somewhat relates to the topic but falls flat for whatever reason.
5 - 5.5 = Barely anything to do with the subject at all.
4 - 4.5 = Virtually nothing to do with the topic at all.
3 - 3.5 = Doesn't relate in any way whatsoever.
2 - 2.5 = Horrible but not 1 worthy.
1 - 1.5 = The worst possible example to submit.
With that said, let's get started...
Tribe Bonbondi
1. holyground - Snow Patrol feat. Martha Wainwright - Set the Fire to the Third Bar
Quote:
|
Dylan - 10 - I remember loving this song when it was used in the Dear John trailer. The movie was about a long distance relationship and so is the song so you hit it right on the head here. You've improved each round so keep it up.

Ethan - 10
When I saw this round, I immediately thought of a different Snow Patrol song, evidentially whoever writes their songs has experience with long distance relationships!
|
2. Remmy - Journey - Faithfully
Quote:
|
Dylan - 9.5 - Really unique choice here. I didn't even think of this song when I was writing up the round. Much better than last round Remmy!
|
Quote:
Ethan - 10
Perfect choice!
|
3. Speezy - Drake - I Get Too Lonely
Quote:
|
Dylan - 5.5 - Unfortunately, your first choice was taken which pretty much defined the entire round. Your second choice was also good. This isn't as good though. It doesn't seem that they are even in a relationship yet so I'm not sure how exactly they could be in a long distance relationship. A step in the wrong direction.

Ethan - 6
It doesn’t even really seem like they are in a relationship yet, he’s just being horny and he remembers some girl he met.
|
Quote:
|
4. Anna - 4 Don't really understand this, isn't it more about his life on the road and not being able to have a normal relationship than about missing his gf?
|
4. Truth Teller - 3 Doors Down - Here Without You
Quote:
|
Dylan - 9 - I totally know this song yet I had no idea it was titled this or sung by 3 Doors Down. I really like the song. The song's lyrics fit the round well so you've once again done a good job selecting a song. A couple others tried to nab this so it was definitely a popular choice this round.
|
Quote:
Ethan - 9
The line about it being a hundred days since they’ve seen each other and the lies or whatever makes me question it a little, but maybe he’s like in the military or in jail or something? I don’t know, I give it the benefit of the doubt because the rest of it is pretty spot on.
|
5. EuphorianSea - Bjork - Unravel
Quote:
|
Dylan - 8 - I'm gonna give you props for having the guts to send in a Bjork song. It works for the most part, but there are a few lyrics that don't really make sense because well... it's a Bjork song. Overall, I'm liking the diversity of your song choices.
|
Quote:
Ethan - 8
Hell yeah, bringing some Bjork in this bitch! The lyrics are a bit weird (as is the case for most Bjork songs) so it’s not a clean cut perfect fit for the theme but it’s easy to see the interpretation of it being about a long distance relationship.
|
Quote:
|
6. Anna - 6 very cryptic, don't really see a message of her missing her s/o
|
6. Lucky#17 - Melanie Amaro - Long Distance
Quote:
|
Dylan - 9.5 - I remember this song. It was cute. Anyway, a huge improvement from your last two rounds. You stepped it up at the right time. The title alone fits the round and the lyrics just expand on it correctly. Keep this type of score going for you.
|
Quote:
Ethan - 10
The lyrics are very detailed and specific. Awesome choice!
|
Quote:
7. Anna - 10
Nailed it. The title already gives it away and the lyrics support the theme.
|
7. Gabegabe - Paramore - Proof
Quote:
|
Dylan - 8 - You've managed to make your faves fit these themes without forcing it. Pretty good choice. Not my favorite choice this round but still a good choice overall.
|
Quote:
Ethan - 10
Hayley “Ugly Hair” Williams definitely knocked it out of the park!
|
Tribe Adranaha
1. K$Ellie - The Saturdays - Leave A Light On
Quote:
|
Dylan - 9.5 - Yes K$Ellie! This is what we have been waiting for from you. This song completely fits the themes with no questions about it. It's also a nice little pop song. Keep sending in entries like this one and you'll be just fine. Huge improvement.
|
Quote:
Ethan - 10
The struggles of being a popstar!
|
2. Bey_RihStan - Brandy - Long Distance
Quote:
|
Dylan - 10 - This was going to be the example song but I thought A Thousand Miles was more widely known so I used that. Therefore, this song pretty much represents the round so props to you once again. You're slaying.
|
Quote:
Ethan - 10
Brandy’s candy
|
3. Lippy - Avril Lavigne - When You're Gone
Quote:
|
Dylan - 6.5 - Same with Stay by Miley, it could be about a long distance relationship but it could also be about death and other scenarios. You needed a song that only fits long distance rather than one thats ambiguous. Decent choice but I know you can do better.
|
Quote:
Ethan - 7
It seems like it could be, some lyrics definitely work for a long distance relationship, but some others make it seem like he’s died or something.
|
Quote:
|
3. Anna - 5 too vague, could be about someone who died
|
4. Superiore - Plain White T's - Hey There Delilah
Quote:
|
Dylan - 8.5 - A lot of people tired to nab this song. It definitely fits the round lyrically though it wasn't the absolute best choice. Another solid round for you!
|
Quote:
Ethan - 10
8th grade Ethan is crazy about this choice.
|
5. gotintoririfever1 - Sara Bareilles - Many The Miles
Quote:
|
Dylan - 5 - There isn't any ongoing relationship so the long distance thing can't really be applied here. It seems like she wants some guy so she's singing about going after what you want in life. I wouldn't classify that as long distance though I can see how the song title led you on. But titles can be deceiving and this is an example of that.
|
Quote:
Ethan - 8
The chorus works really well but the verses are confusing me. It’s not a bad choice.
|
Quote:
|
5. Anna - 3 it's not about long distance she hasn't even found someone to love yet
|
6. Amaloner - 5 Seconds of Summer - Beside You
Quote:
|
Dylan - 9.5 - Though you had to find a new song last minute, you still triumphed. Song completely fits the long distance scenario that was given to you all. Another nice round for you.
|
Quote:
Ethan - 10
This was a good choice, it’s a weird one but the lyrics are spot on.
|
7. Sebas - Dash Berlin feat. Emma Hewitt - Waiting
Quote:
|
Dylan - 7.5 - I wish the lyrics expanded a bit more because the lyrics we do have fit right in. It's just the song is limited in lyrics therefore I can't give you a higher score. Still a decent choice. Unique for sure.
|
Quote:
Ethan - 8
I could see an argument for it being about a long distance relationship and an argument for it not. Songs like this aren’t best for rounds where we’re looking at lyrics because this one doesn’t have many specific ones.
|
Tribe Brilando
1. Bloomers - Michael Bublé - Home
Quote:
|
Dylan - 10 - I want to know why no one else sent this in when it's literally one of the best available options. Miles better than last round. You literally shot from the bottom to top in a matter of one round.
|
Quote:
Ethan - 10
Michael Buble could sing the Shakespeare homework I should be doing right now and it would make it the most interesting thing I’d ever heard.
|
2. FunkyDinevo - Oleta Adams- Get Here
Quote:
|
Dylan - 8 - It fits the round. I didn't recognize the song until I actually listened to it. Lyrics are on point. It's a nice song. Overall, nice job.
|
Quote:
Ethan - 10
Oleta “Stinky Pits” Adams definitely nailed it!
|
3. Yvess - Simple Plan feat. Natasha Bedingfield - Jet Lag
Quote:
|
Dylan - 9.5 - Really cute song! I love Natasha so much. She deserved better. Anyway, the lyrics definitely define what I asked for this round so props to you for another good round.
|
Quote:
Ethan - 10
A weird collaboration but it works really well. Natasha Bedingfield is the queen.
|
4. Ivory. - Evan & Jaron - The Distance
Quote:
|
Dylan - 9.5 - I actually haven't heard of this but you once again prevailed. I'm loving your song selections so far. All of them have been spot on. Great choice!
|
Quote:
Ethan - 10
Never heard of it or them but it’s perfect!
|
5. prezli - Hey Ocean! - Islands
Quote:
|
Dylan - 7- I actually do see where this is coming from. It's a little far fetched but I can see where you were coming from. Your best round so far but you still have some work to do.
|
Quote:
Ethan - 9
Doesn’t really feel like it’s about the long distance relationship but I can see that it’s there.
|
6. Ihdang2000 - Lifehouse - From Where You Are
Quote:
|
Dylan - 6.5 - I love this song. Thanks for sharing it with me. However, it's kinda similar to When You're Gone in the sense that it could fit this round but it also could be related to death and other situations. I also looked up the actual meaning which is about death but because we don't judge based off that, I didn't mark you off. It's just too ambiguous.
|
Quote:
|
6. Anna - 3 break up song alert
|
7. DOMINO - Madonna - Miles Away
Quote:
|
Dylan - 6 - The lyrics are really iffy. It's definitely about long distance but it's not really about missing each other. She makes it seem as if the relationship is better off when they're not together physically. Not the best choice for this round.
|
Quote:
Ethan - 7
I don’t think this song is really about a long distance relationship where she misses him. I can see the long distance part, but the lyrics don’t match up.
|
Quote:
|
7. Anna - 6 different approach and I love the song, but it's not really about how they miss each other
