Second
Temporary Home - Carrie Underwood
In three words:
Hopefulness, Eternity, Powerful
The meaning:
Although where we are right now may not be the best place we want to be, we all are given the strength, the faith (by the song) to move on in life cause we know the fact that this is just our temporary home.
Next we have our impressive contestants…the following people did impress the judges and are doing a great job as well, so keep up the hard work! (in no particular order)
Challenge 1 - Impressive Contestants
(The Climb - Miley Cyrus)
KarlosVzla
The climb in 3 words:
Hopeful, Encouraging, Meaningful
The meaning of "The Climb".
"The climb" is a song that tells you that is okay to make mistakes. Basically it says that there are always going to be bumps in the race but it's all about how you learn from you mistakes, and how they make you stronger at the end.
The Meaning Of It's Too Late!, Its Very Confusing , but hes singing about dreaming, and thinking its way too late, since its from the album dream, half of the songs off the album is him, singing about the dreams they have had, and put them into songs.
i also choose the song cause the video, is different, their ln a little blue Forrest looking so cute, with clocks stopped, and clocks running backwards.
"Everytime" in 3 words:
Haunting, Personal, Tragic
The meaning of "Everytime":
"Everytime" is a controversial and confessional ballad that gives Britney a closure after the end of her relationship with Justin Timberlake. It has a simple piano beat with few guitar strings and plays like a lullaby in which Britney sings in an effective, but fragile mood, as if she's singing directly to Justin.
(Disturbia - Rihanna)
RudeBoy
- Dark
- Unique
- Catchy
Meaning of Disturbia:
Disturbia is about letting the dark side of yours control your mind and behavior (Being in "Disturbia"), and once that happens, there is no escape. (Release me from this curse I'm in..)
This was so hard. I could write a pages about what Disturbia is, narrowing it to one line was hard. But that's what basically Disturbia is about, and it's much more than people think it is.
(Together Again - Janet Jackson)
ashuduff
JANET - TOGETHER AGAIN
Together Again in 3 words:
Uplifting, Joyous, Celebration
The meaning of Together Again:
Together Again is a song celebrating the lives of the deceased, and the promise that the living will indeed meet their deceased love ones once again and they will be together again.
(Gravity - Pixie Lott)
PopBoi
'Gravity' In 3 Words; Emotional, Passionate, Contemporary
'Gravity' Song Meaning; Gravity is basically about not being able to give up on someone you love, even though deep down you know they are no good for you. The various emotions represented in the lyrics can be heard in Pixie's vocals, and a lot of passion is reflected throughout the song and it's overall sound.
(Bulletproof - La Roux)
sticks
Bulletproof in 3 words:
Dance, Good-bye, Confident
The meaning of Bulletproof:
The song Bulletproof is Elly Jackson's warning to her ex, that she won't be so naive as she was when she first dated him. She warns him to stay away, because this time she is Bulletproof, essentially the song is saying "I'm over you, and you better not mess with me."
(Dance in the Dark - Lady GaGa)
Gohustle
Guarded, Insecurity, Emotional
Dance in the Dark is about being embarrassed about your body---feeling insecure until the lights are out and you can let yourself be free & let your inner animal out. Best reflected in the massive emotionally-charged chorus.
(Here to Stay - Korn)
Johnald
1. "Here to Stay"
2. Vengeful, aggressive, and uplifting. The song is about somebody being fed up with people taking advantage of them.
The following contestants did an ok job, but take caution to work really hard next time!
Challenge 1 - Average Contestants
(Hot N Cold - Katy Perry)
HotNCold
3 words: Fun, Empowering, Bitchy
Meaning: HNC is a fun, yet empowering anthem on how a undecisive boyfriend can't do anything the way he wants, and is ruining their relationship.
You did do pretty well on this challenge, and almost scored enough points to get into the impressive contestants group, but your lyrical description seemed like a rehash of the 3 words you chose, which was the downside.
(Circus - Britney Spears)
Pedro
Circus by Britney Spears
Circus In 3 Words:
Leader, Dance, Fearless
The meaning of Circus:
Circus in general defines Britney Spears as the biggest performer ever, dance is what she loves and in this song she defenitely shows who is the ringleader in charge.
This was a good Britney song choice, but your explanation was a bit shallow and not relatable.
(Speechless - Lady GaGa)
Jimmyxcore
Personal - Emotional - Strong
Speechless is a breathtaking song written by Lady GaGa when she tried to convice her father to undergo open-hearted surgery. it talks about the fear of Death Monster.
Jimmy, we know you're a great Lady GaGa stan! This was a great song choice, but some of the judges felt that there was something missing in your explanation…
The BOTTOM TWO…
remeese and fiercE, you thought you could stan but you've already fallen flat in this round.

(no single cover/ music video but its a single)
2. Happy, Fun, Nice
.well its all about the things/stuffs that makes a person/him happy
fiercE - your entry was too short and you picked really general words to describe the song. Your explanation is too vague.

"Ridin' Solo" by Jason DeRulo
'Ridin' Solo' in 3 words: fame, life, single. [tbh, I had a hard time with this part.. my words are weak, but they basically match the song. ]
The meaning of 'Ridin' Solo': The meaning of this amazing song is DeRulo getting over a break-up ("I'm so sorry, that it didn't work out.. I'm movin' on"), and getting over it quickly by just living his life and enjoying himself ("finally doin' me & it feels so right", "goin' to the club everything's alright"). Now he feels even better than before. ("I'm feelin' like a star.. you can't stop my shine.")
remeese - one judge thought your word choices were contradictory and didn't make sense. Another thought that your lyrical description was just a retread of the lyrics themselves instead of actually describing anything significant.
So who deserves a second chance?

remeese!
You can still prove yourself because you will be staying for the second challenge! Congratulations, but make sure you IMPRESS the judges next round!
I'm sorry fiercE, but your entry was too weak. You may not be continuing in So You Think You Can Stan, but don't give up on Drake Bell just yet!
