This challenge is hint #8, Katy Perry's underrated flop, "Birthday". And why is that? Because this challenge relates to Birthdays...
CHALLENGE #9
THE ZODIAC CHALLENGE
This is another semi-Platinum Hit 9 original, loosely based off of the Into the Stars challenge from Season 6.
No, you don't have to write a song based on YOUR Zodiac, you get to choose a sign that's characteristics you think you can describe or illustrate best. Your challenge is to write a song that incorporates the keywords into your song. You don't need to use these words explictly, just write a song that captures their essence. How you choose to do that is up to your interpretation, but it must be present in order to fulfill the challenge.

NNn I was gonna choose Pisces, but I see Tilly got it.
this is a bit similar to the Pokemon challenge, except I won't do as well with it.
I'll take Cancer because that's what I am.

This is honestly the perfect challenge to write the sequel to "Welcome to the World", so I'm thinking that's what I'm gonna do.

I'll stick around for 15 minutes or so and then I'm off to catch Pokémon.

Sorry I was a bit tied up.
Honestly was expecting an elimination, such a bad week for me last week. Definitely a pleasant surprise with 7!
Sorry Dyblobs and Tyler!
Congrats everyone else.

All of the words in this challenge are really different. Like each sign is full of diff ones.
I'll just take whatever's left because nothing is jumping out at me.

I'm not expecting y'all to incorporate EVERY word, that would be low-key impossible. Like 2 or 3 would be fine.

I guess I shouldn't write a song about an assertive power bottom given how our new judge apparently feels about sex songs.
