There's a silver lining to being eliminated, after all.

I felt really similarly back in Nur Ein IV when the first title/challenge after I got eliminated was "Spider to the Fly"/Must be through-composed.

This one's worse. Y'all have fun!

I think we've got our approach nailed down. Hopefully it's the easiest to implement (and least annoying) of the concepts we came up with. Really interested to hear what y'all come up with for this one...

Huh? Is he now a mom? I sent a message to a distant longshot. Crossing fingers now. I will get in this fight somehow, and would rather be voted out than not enter. NUR EIN!!!!!!!!

Oh...does "mom" mean "mother"?!?

Sorry , but this use of regional slang is a bit confusing for non-Americans.

Can me, Pedro and Carlo have extra points?

The perfect opportunity to finally write a song about my wang, and get my mum* to sing on it.

Although there are numerous other subjects I could write about, it's almost too hard to choose one.

*note correct spelling. No need to thank me, I know it's implied.

I have predicted that we the judges will get 20 songs about wangs even though there are only 16 people submitting... the subject matter is that good.

Umm, Pedro? Why is your wang purple? You might want a doctor to take a look at that.

Gripping too hard. And I don't need a doctor when the answer to "does this look normal to you?" is always definitely a resounding "no" (or insert nur ein title here).
