<b>Please scroll down for results of round 21.</b>
___________________________________________________________
THE BASICS ::

[01] Each round will have a song as a theme.
[02] You must use that song and you must relate that song to the blend that you make.
[03] Each round is the same type of graphic --- blends, let's get better at making those! :)
[04] a. In your graphic, you must have the lyrics of the song, the name of the song, and the artist.
------ b. You do not have to use the entire lyrics, you must have a minimum of TWO verses, however.
[05] The images you use in your blend is at your discretion but no pictures can imply anything against the forum rules.

+++++++++++++++
<center>Song Themed Contest - Round 22
Song :: "Paperthin Hymn" by Anberlin
Graphic :: Blend</center>


Suggested by Altariel Frodo

Paperthin Hymn wrote:
When your only friends are hotel rooms
Hands are distant lullabies
If I could turn around I would tonight

These roads never seemed so long
Since your paper heart stopped beating leaving me suddenly alone
Will daybreak ever come?

Who's gonna call on Sunday morning?
Who's gonna drive you home?
I just want one more chance
To put my arms in fragile hands

I thought you said forever
Over and over
A sleepless night becomes bitter oblivion

These thoughts run through my head
Over and over
Complaints of violins become my only friends

August evenings
Bring solemn warnings
To remember to kiss the ones you love goodnight

You never know what temporal days may bring
Laugh, love, live free and sing
When life is in discord
Praise ye the lord

Who's gonna call on Sunday morning?
Who's gonna drive you home?
I just want one more chance
To put my arms in fragile hands

I thought you said forever
Over and over
The sleepless night becomes bitter oblivion

These thoughts run through my head
Over and over
Complaints of violins become my only friends

I thought you said forever
over and over
The sleepless night becomes bitter oblivion

These thoughts run through my head
over and over
Complaints of violins become my only friends

I thought you said forever
over and over
These thoughts run through my head

First?! Wow, thank you everyone who voted, and Kit for the terrific award! I'll join this round too. ^_^

As for song suggestions, hm...[have to narrow it down, as I'm a total music junkie:teehee:] 10 More Minutes With You by Kill Hannah is a good one. That, and Who Needs Air by the Classic Crime. I can't decide which I like better.

EDIT:

Oops! Lyrics, right.

As for songs, what about "Annie", "Shine On" or "I Can't Hear The Music" by James Blunt?

A contest with the Paperthin Hymn? I love Anberlin!! :-D And I second Aliana's The Classic Crime recommendation. That band is great. :)

Ok, here it is! It's very different from my usual style, but I like it.

Here's my entry, Kit.

And song suggestions..Umm, how many is too many, Kit? Because I have quite a few. But I'll limit it to these three

Disco 2000 by Pulp
Je Ferme Les Yeux by Najoua Belyzel
Knives Out by Radiohead

I have my entry done. Considering it's my favorite song ever, I wanted it to be good... not sure how well it turned out. It looks alright on my laptop, but it will be darker on other screens. :duh:

Cool song, and you're right Kitoky, the blends rock. They're all personify the song in their own way. I can't help, but enter!

I hope I put in enough lyrics. :)

Contest is now closed unless someone wants to submit a last minute entry. I probably won't be able to put the voting up until the weekend.
