I know this type of comment is discouraged, but i am assuming the intent of the challenge is for our lyrics to take the form of a villanelle, not merely to say, include the word villanelle in our lyrics....

This is your solution to all the math and vitriol?
If I had a dollar for every one of my songs j$ has called a 90s pastiche, I'd have $1 for every song I've written.

I like this challenge and title. I especially like it because last time I had to write a sonnet, I won the round! But then again, there was no bgm then. I have a feeling that guy is going to do a good job with this.

But you have immunity this week, so you don't need to enter. Just put your feet up and relax till next round.

Oh man, I don't know about that.
If you'd asked me a few hours ago, before I saw the Wikipedia page, I'd have said a Villanelle was a female bad-guy or something.

Trust me, I know. I remember being severely disappointed the last time I won a Round Four and was informed that I did not have immunity. I like immunity. And I didn't have any this time. :evil:

Except in Nur Ein! 1, where for some reason round three immunity was cancelled.
