Safe is a great entry, is it all over the radio in Germany currently?
I always buy the Bravo Hits compilations and it's on the latest edition of that so I heard the song for the first time a few weeks back. You may be interested to know that Auf Uns was a very close 2nd in choosing what to send to YBO, I still listen to it all the time, <3 German pop *.* |

Thanks! Yeah it’s had some solid airplay here although i think it’s been a little displaced by “Oh hello” now as that dropped a couple of weeks ago (album was out on Friday)
I’ve been holding onto it since it came out trying to decide if i should send it or not. Ooooh yay! Although I’ve got to say the pick you went with was excellent! Very timely too, this past couple of months it’s worked it’s way back into regular rotation for me so I’m thrilled to see it in the line up. Einfach zwölf! |

Ashton doesn't speak French in BJSC CX
Namika, with her Ashton & German #1 smash hit Je Ne Parle Pas Français, is the final representative of the year for the Federal Republic of Ashton. With very #relatable lyrics. Namika is the latest German to represent Ashton, and aside from a couple of lines in French, is singing in German making it Ashton's 4th German Language entry of the year. |

A decade of Áskorzjan rule
After a rough run of 10 contests, SNÁ and the ASC have vowed to come out swinging as they approach their 100th contest in charge of the Buzzjack Song Contest. At a press conference the GRd'Á promised to ensure the contest fired into the next decade of Áskorzjan rule with the revolutionary spirit that their reign started with. As for the unceremonious dumping out of the Áskorzjan entrant in the semi's for the last three contests, the SNÁ had only this to say: "We will stay true to ourselves, but have absolute faith that just because you think you can stuff us back on the shelf that doesn't mean we can't do what you do better" They then hit play on the below video and left the room. A reminder that the Sugababes only Brit award was for Best Dance Act? A reminder that their cover of a Rihanna track is better than the original? Who knows what was going through the mind of the SNÁ commissioners, but for the first time in a while they didn't throw their usual "xenophobic showers of racists" soundbites at the assembled media. |

What's in a name change
The Governa République d'Áskorza has today confirmed that the Federal Republic of Ashton will be abandoning the hybrid English-Áskorzjan name République d'Ashton in favour of the full Áskorzjan "République d'Áskorza". The countries official short names are "Rép d'Ákz" and "Rd'Á". The correct demonym is Áskorzjan. Our entrant this month has also seen success under a previous moniker. A legend returns. |

Only You have the power to return Ashton to its final positioning
https://soundcloud.com/phil-kelly-657388534...sc-cxiv/s-HKDX7 The legends of pop and Áskorzjan royalty Mutya Keisha Siobhan return to BJSC to represent République d'Áskorza for the 6th time in the main contest. Only You, from the post-Polydor sessions is a fantastic uptempo sorta quasi dancepop banger. We look forward to Áskorza returning to the final this month. |

There's always a chance at redemption
After a highly offensive placing for 15/10 SONG OF LIFE moment that is Only You (SNÁ and ÁSC notes and appreciates the high level of support from #00247E (better known within Ashton by it's Áskorzjan translation Natio d'la coláir - nation of the colour)) and the disgraceful dumping of yet another Áskorzjan entry in the semi-finals, the SNÁ and ÁSC were not holding much hope for BJSC CXVI entrant Lotte - indeed news has been slow to come out from the SNÁ/ÁSC BJSC HQ after the shock qualification was announced. Our sources have indicated that a lot of preprepared press materials relating to the reaction from CXVI and the Federal Republic's 117th entry was hastily shredded this morning! Performing "Schau Mich Nicht So An" (don't look at me like that), Lotte has brought a magical midtempo about the struggle of not going back to an ex-lover, as much as you are drawn to them. Schau Mich Nicht So An is Áskorza's 6th German language entry since the start of the new century of BJSC contests. (English with 8 leads the way with Spanish and Polish on one each) You can give our fantastic entry a spin below!!  VOTE FOR LOTTE AshtonTimes has tracked down some exclusive footage from an intimate gig that Lotte performed in Aeroche following her qualification to the BJSC final. We thank Aeroche for their hospitality! Be sure to also check out more from the excellent Lotte! Schau Mich Nicht So An is the first single from her second album (coming later this year), but her debut contained some wonderful track and a few former Áskorzjan potentials including 'Auf beiden beinen' and our personal favourite from Lotte's debut album, 'Farben'. |

Redemption 2.0
Not since Powder has an entry from République d'Áskorza hit the top 10, in spite of solid gold BANGERS like "Only You" from the Sugababes and "Better" by actual Eurovision winner Lena with Nico Santos among many others, but still we persevere with the underappreciated and heavily slept on German music scene. Today the SNÁ and ÁSC say "Mehr Davon!!" and have confirmed that the country will enter it's 4th German language track of the decade and 5th German entry of the decade. A former entrant, who in the eyes of the SNÁ and ÁSC did not place as highly as was deserved, has been selected to be the nations entry on home turf. Our sources indicate that the artist, who has been revealed to the domestic audience along with the chosen song, beat out strong competition from Áskorzjan royalty and another German language track which we can exclusively reveal below.

This sort of reminds me of a female (German) Macklemore song. It's very infectious, I heard it on a compilation a couple of months ago but hearing it again here has definitely helped it click, will check out her other stuff.

Numa Numa Looo-oooo-oooooh-oooh-oooove
Still committed to Deutschland, République d’Áskorza has entered German Leony with her new track „Faded Love“. And yes. It samples Dragostea Din Tei which you can relive below for fun and then you can vote Rép d‘Ákz in SF2 |

Greetings République d'Áskorza (though I still just want to address you as Ashton, given it’s the name of a suburb of Bristol close to me and the partial name of Bristol City”s stadium!
 )I had come across your entry in January... QUOTE(awardinary @ Jan 15 2021, 11:40 AM)  Samples O-Zone’s single Dragostea Din Tei; I wasn’t disappointed by the sample, and I have a strong feeling I’d we were in the same Semi I would point you! Hope this month your nation gets a deserved qualification!

No we never never never not try
Fresh from victory in Deutschland Sucht den Superstar (German Pop Idol) Jan-Marten is tackling a more daunting competition in the form of the 134th Buzzjack Song Contest in Mosquetania. "Never Not Try" is his winners single from DSDS and it is, in our humble opinion, the best reality tv winners single since Sound of the Underground. You can check it out above and vote for Jan-Marten and République d'Áskorza in SF2. And for added fun, here is Jan-Marten's winners performance from a slightly pared back DSDS final event (Cheers for that Corona!) |

Oh I am familiar with this one! It must be on a Bravo Hits compilaition I have, it's certainly catchy for its genre.
I hope you follow through with that schlager-rap entry at some point *.* |

Yeah I’d be shocked if it wasn’t on a Bravo Hits, was a huge hit here!
But I think I will defo follow this up with the Schlager-rap. Not sure if I’ll send the first one or it’s follow up yet but will see how I feel when confirmations open (or what I do in June 👀) |
