Hype cheer.gif I imagine my entry will be another retro one that doesn't set the contest alight a la Judith Durham but hopefully it'll have a few big fans.

Sorry, we are encountering technical difficulties with our spaceship. Please wait for a good couple of minutes before we begin.


Posted by: CodySleighBell-y 23rd December 2022, 07:53 PM

I think most of those who would be fans of BROODS didn’t vote so I’m expecting this to be a big flop but I’ve been wrong before!

Posted by: awardinary 23rd December 2022, 07:57 PM

Let’s get this overseas party started! cheer.gif

We are sorry for the slight delay due to thrusters not working properly as intended x

Welcome to the spaceship departing from Agerson to Earth. Please read the safety card in front of you. Food and drinks will be served. Have a nice journey. We are up in space, man! Cheers!

ooh is the Elevator music embed a sign that Danæviia are about to win tonight? biggrin.gif

(probably not as I don't suspect the host, nor anyone else, remembers that it was briefly sampled in my previous BJSC entry "Overkill" by Riot)

We first have our lovely passenger Jade, HoD of Jadakissnia, presenting us votes on who should take the free ticket in the first class cabin:
QUOTE(Jade)
12 points: Persephonia
10 points: Danæviia
8 points: Pestolia
7 points: Lotunia
6 points: Land of DW
5 points: République d'Áskorza
4 points: Flynnonda
3 points: Trifoski
2 points: Cor Lupus
1 point: Zanmatony
Commiserations:
xx // Terra Avium // Suriname // Damaru - Suriname
xx // Rolloland // Toronto // Rush - 2112

Jadakissnia has Hispaniola as their destination. In this set, Azerbaijan is the country. Personally, I am not very familiar with the Azerbaijani scene but they give us some bops from time to time x They used to have a decent music industry though but now their NMF playlist contains a lot of artists from Turkey too, so I wasn't able to chart a lot of the songs from there x

We will provide the full song names after every 5th vote so I don't spend too much time writing this up x


SCOREBOARD:

1. Persephonia (12 points)
2. Danæviia (10 points)
3. Pestolia (8 points)
4. Lotunia (7 points)
5. Land of DW (6 points)
6. République d'Áskorza (5 points)
7. Flynnonda (4 points)
8. Trifoski (3 points)
9. Cor Lupus (2 points)
10. Zanmatony (1 point)
11. Kyriatine (0 points)
12. Beaverdonia (0 points)
13. Bøtanikkä (0 points)
14. Dobago (0 points)

21. Sovarasma (0 points)

Yay a nice little point to get me off the mark from the Queen of Jadakissnia! happy.gif

Posted by: uhsting 23rd December 2022, 08:28 PM



The HoD of Zanmatony, lovely Wardy, has snuck in their votes in the pocket of a flight attendant, and they gave me this:
QUOTE(Wardy)
+12 Sovarasma // Fiji // GLVES - Free
+10 Pestolia // Rome // Winter Severity Index - A Sudden Cold
+8 Trifoski // Faroe Islands // Dánjal - The Big Wheel Keeper
+7 Rolloland // Toronto // Rush - 2112
+6 Danæviia // Taiwan // Waves of Doppler - You Are Poem, You Are Rain; You Are the Water to My Flame
+5 Jadakissnia // Birmingham // The Moody Blues - Melancholy Man
+4 Kyriatine // Copenhagen // Drew Sycamore - Jungle
+3 Eastovka // DR Congo // GIMS - MAINTENANT
+2 Cor Lupus // Auckland // BROODS ft. Tove Lo - I Keep
+1. Altyr Muunilinst // Costa Rica // MishCatt - Ferris Wheel

Zanmatony has quite a difficult set ngl. I'm quite surprised he has found a decent song from Malmo! Egypt is an interesting country. I'm still going through their catalogue of new pop music at the moment, but one name stood out for me: Samira Said (also eligible for Morocco x)

Also thanks for the 12 points SLAYYYYY cheer.gif cheer.gif

Captain! We are receiving a distress signal from Fiole! What does it say??
QUOTE(Iz)
A cry for help in time of need, await relief from holy league
60 days of siege, outnumbered and weak
Sent a message to the sky, wounded soldiers left to die
Will they hold the wall or will the city fall
Dedication
Dedication
They're outnumbered 15 to one
And the battle's begun
Then the winged hussars arrived
Coming down the mountainside
Then the winged hussars arrived
Coming down they turned the tide

Jeszcze Polska nie Zginęła!"

The YouTube sound quality does sound a bit sus to me (but not for others) thinking.gif Apologies for not checking the Spotify version as well x Poland has a large pop scene and I believe they have a decent dance scene too, if you remember SARAPATA from Sovarasma earlier in the year wink.gif

Hope an invasion is not going on in Sovarasma, or are we doomed? x

12 Pestolia // Winter Severity Index - A Sudden Cold
10 Land of DW // Perturbator - She Is Young, She Is Beautiful, She Is Next
8 Jadakissnia // The Moody Blues - Melancholy Man

7 Dobago // Soraia Ramos and Nenny - Trompete
6 Danæviia // Waves Of Doppler - You Are Poem, You Are Rain; You Are The Water To My Flame

3 Terra Avium // Damaru - Suriname
2 Lotunia // Chisu - Mysteeri
1 Rolloland // Rush - 2112


Thought Land of DW's song would be hard to beat early on in the listenthrough but then it was beaten 2 songs later by my fellow coldwave connoisseur - I actually like Pestolia's song more than my own entry, what a tune. Still a great top 2 of discoveries anyway and medals rounded out by a great song discovered from the UK #1 albums listenthroughs and good to hear it again here.

'Commiserations' to Blondie which I like enough to probably give like 5 points but I decided to prioritise more inspired entries kink.gif

Love to see Bre entering a Kyrgyz artist based in Tokyo ohmy.gif I recommended Tamga the other day. Their pop music scene is quite interesting. I love their traditional instruments incorporated into the music. Some of the songs are really grand x

And oh yes so it is two 1 pointers in a row for these Rolloland prog spinoff entries. '2112' had some parts that I wasn't that keen on but other parts that I loved so it was a bit of a difficult one to rank but I did on balance enjoy it enough that I still thought it deserved a point. Maybe I thought the same thing about 'Grendel', I forget x

Despite hosting a relatively small Worldvision this edition, I thoroughly enjoyed the quality of the edition. I thought I might struggle to point half of the songs in this contest. Lotunia gave us a stunner which sounded really big in the recap. Dobago served us something really spicy. Kyriatine found form with pop song again! I admire Rolloland's entry with the story told in 20 minutes across several movements. Talk about writing a symphony but in popular music!

I originally went with Brooke Fraser's Magical Machine which would have flopped tbh x Glad Bre "reminded" me to be more inspiring, especially as a host, hence I went with the tasteful GLVES instead. wink.gif

TY for putting Danæviia top 10 tonight!

congrats to Lotunia, a very worthy winner there, and to my fave Land of DW for finishing 2nd.

6th is so much better than I was expecting for 'Melancholy Man', really pleased with that result *.* and my 12 just ahead of me, yay!

Congrats NocheLuna on the win! Gave your entry 7 points, I'm yet to hear a bad Chisu song tbh. Great to see Jadakissnia alumnus Perturbator going down so well too <3

Thank you for a super enthusiastic hosting effort uhsting! clap.gif

Clearly someone is coming for the hardest working song contest host award! kink.gif

How was I not the last received?!

Posted by: Ansel 23rd December 2022, 10:52 PM

Yay @ a Pestolia top ten! Great to be back on track with that after a Halloween flop (maybe some day I'll get there in the main contest too kink.gif )

Congrats Lotunia, Chisu is a great winner. I'm a big fan of most of that top ten so great results really, I would've liked to see Zanmatony a bit higher though.

Thanks uhsting for hosting! happy.gif

Did you add deductions in for non-voters? Apologies if I missed it, my top 10 return could happen if not x

Pleasantly surprised by how well I did with this though, it was possibly the laziest selection of an entry ever (guess how I found it kink.gif) but I wasn't all that taken by the few other Surinamese sounds I heard and the song was pretty instantly catchy for me and I'm pleased it went down well with others too and makes up for my floppage last time.

Congrats to Lotunia, that did sound like a really big song and is typically wonderful from Finnish pop so no complaints. The two list-of-three titled entries were beautiful, Trifoski and Persephonia also sounded like classic worldvision quirky picks so pleased to see all of those do well.

Congrats Noche, oops I said on SyncTube that this song didn't really give me winner vibes so me being wrong again x It was a nice song though and got a couple of points from me so happy with that as the winner! Justice for 'Sabotage' though.

Yayyy at me hanging onto top 5, definitely a much better result than I expected (was a pretty last minute find, I instantly loved it for its instrumental but still thought it was a fairly niche sound that could have easily gone down like a lead balloon especially with the barely audible vocals)! I think that's my 2nd highest finish in Worldvision and iirc I still haven't ever come top 3 in any spinoff (excluding BJFestivalen) but this one adding to a decent handful of 4th-5th place finishes ~

Land of DW would have made a fantastic winner so a little aw at that narrowly missing out but 2nd is still great ofc. Very surprised but pleased to see Dobago finishing so high, also very pleasingly high for Jadakissnia (Jadaphonia finishing back to back *.*) and great to see Pestolia top 10 as well, I actually liked their entry more than my own so almost a little gutted to see them below me haha.

I voted for Cor Lupus and Danæviia too - and Terra Avium who should be top 10 when the deductions are applied x (edit: I see this has been addressed already) - so it's great to see a set of results that I actually feel in touch with, if only the main contests could be like this kink.gif

Thanks for hosting uhsting jump.gif think we should probably give Worldvision a rest for a little while now especially as we had two of them this year, maybe can do another one in 2024.

Thanks, another top 10 for me woop *.*

Thanks for hosting btw, was a great contest despite the smaller numbers.

Glad to have made a top 10 after a pretty shitty start! I get to finish the year with all top 10’s in spin-offs cheer.gif Three 18’s is a pretty good haul, thanks to Silas/John/Harry for the gold medals! heart.gif heart.gif also congrats to Noche, another really good slice of Finnish pop.

Great job on the hosting job uhsting! Sucks that this edition didn’t have as many participants but it felt a little more relaxed and intimate than previous iterations. Perfect for the holidays heart.gif now where’s the hot chocolate?

Posted by: uhsting 23rd December 2022, 11:11 PM

I really like the result personally. Glad to see Dobago so high. We want more of these entries in BJSC x I was right about Lotunia sounding really big. I do think this entry could've done really well in normal BJSC. Land of DW and Trifoski rounding up the top 3 is amazing, considering they probably would not do that well in the main contest. Overall, I agree with the top 10. This is also my first time being in the top half too, so thank you very much! wub.gif

Thanks for the nice words about the hosting this edition x Sad not to have more people joining this edition but we had a really nice bunch of songs wub.gif

WHOAAA we killed it in Worldvision again! chose the most difficult of the two options we were given, finished above much more buzzjack-friendly entries...the song was a last-minute swap too, glad I went with the right one!

Posted by: Silas 23rd December 2022, 11:25 PM

Thanks for hosting!! Country assignment was quite tough this time round but was a great selection of songs.

Posted by: Michael Bubré 23rd December 2022, 11:48 PM

Also still shook that the random Kyrgyz artist I found by Googling 'Kyrgyzstan post-punk' (kink.gif this wasn't actually a post-punk song at all but still that being a reliable Google search term to find some good stuff) turned out to also happen to be based in Tokyo meaning I did both the country and city that I was assigned.

Oh, shall I retract my 10 points? You did well with Indonesia, I enjoyed that one.

Congratulations to Lotunia, a Séyetan alumni winning these things is always good to see, Chisu never misses. Great to see Trifoski doing so well too.

I eventually found a Polish rock song I liked, glad to see it getting a few points here and there, so thank you guys!

oh and the text in my votes was lyrics from Sabaton's 'Winged Hussars', just a bit of random Polish nationalism.

First of all, thank you for hosting uhsting (and ty for the 12 points x)! Has been very fun to take part this time, even tho the numbers of participants are a little lower than usual. With that being said, I'm very happy to see Suriname, Cabo Verde, Farao Islands and Kyrgyzstan in the top 10. Finally, thank you all for the points and the win happy.gif Worldvision itself is by far my favorite of the spin-offs here, so i'm happy to have actually won an edition. A little confession, I was actually going to send a folk band representing Türkiye. However, I discovered that they were only based there and that almost none of the members were actually turkish - probably would not have done as well as "Mysteeri" ended up doing laugh.gif .
Anyway, I wish you all a happy holiday season!

Posted by: uhsting 25th December 2022, 12:11 AM

I'd be interested in your Turkish entry ngl xx

Happy holidays everyone! wub.gif

Hope you had a good time in Palawan ohmy.gif
