What is my music taste like?
Pop, Alternative Pop, Alternative, Country, Pop/Country crossover, French Pop, Italian Pop & Hip Hop, Spanish Pop, Christian, some pop rock, an ever so slight amount of rock.
I think these genres really capture the essence of my music taste. Also important to note, I lean very heavily towards modern music...I'd probably say mid 2000s and later.
As for languages, I included them in genres, but I'll just repeat to clarify, I can also understand French, Italian, and Spanish music well (usually).
I like high energy & fun, I like slow & beautiful, I like passionate, I like deep, I like painful, I like dark, I like powerful, I like a statement...there's a lot of things I gravitate towards.
HOW WILL YOU BE JUDGED?
When I listen, I'm focusing on FOUR THINGS!
The music/sound of the song. The voices/vocals. The lyrics. The overall vibe and how well everything meshes together.
I try to approach songs with a holistic view and even if I don't like one aspect I try staying open to the other elements. ALSO...I do look for how well it matches the theme of course.
A NEW POWER
I did away with immunities in my 3rd season, and that holds. HOWEVER...if your win is commanding, I will give you a REDO POWER. This can be used one time over the following TWO rounds, if needed. So, after I post results, if you find yourself in the bottom 2, you can use your redo power to see if you end up in a better position.
The caveat here is that your win must be commanding/deserving, not a...default, for lack of better word, win.
FACE OFFS
Staying true to my origins, there is the possibility that you will have to repeat the theme if you find yourself in a Face Off.
Crediting melindamrskk, another Face Off option is that I will post a song and you will have to send a song that is similar...in sound, vibe, lyrics...whatever fashion you want, but the similarity has to be clear.
Crediting Maxi1234, a new Face Off option this season could be that you will need to send a song from a certain artist.
SO, there are a few different possibilities for your Face Off if you find yourself in the bottom. There is, of course, also the possibility of a direct elimination.
OFF LIMIT SONGS
I'm deciding...Season 4 is giving the music studio a breath of fresh life. NO songs are off limit, to start of course. Once a song is used this season, it can not be used again. This will be updated in the google sheet.

OKAY...I think that's all the housekeeping we have to do, and the game can BEGIN. We will start with a non-elimination round where you can submit WHATEVER you want, babes. I'm being a little nicer than last season to start. I want to see what I'm working with as far as your taste goes & you guys can see how my feedback will look this season !
Theme: "comme tu veux" - as you want. There may be 1 or 2 winners!
