QUOTE(Tafty @ Apr 8 2021, 02:17 PM)  KARA - STEP I don't understand why more KARA songs haven't been sent around that time period, I feel like Pandora and Damaged Lady would have been decent sized hitsSo unjust and absolutely heartbroken it failed to qualify.  My favourite K-Pop song of all time. It's a stunner! One of the most perfect pop songs ever. Deserved to be the first (?) K-Pop winner.although if i read the songs of page correctly Asian pop was just flat out ignored by BJSC in 2013 which is kinda sus but okay |

So that’s better than most periods in BJSC. Swear I remember 4minute getting a hit around that time too, and Namie Amuro and Girls Generation also. Late 2012-early 2013 was the golden age for Asian pop and KARA DNQing was very unexpected and undeserved at the time iirc |

Of course the issue there is more like the contest is receptive to Asian big names but much less of Asian obscure artists than western obscure artists which is why after that initial period of big name success it became briefly harder to find a hit. But these things go in cycles, one day my love for Japanese music will hit everyone else. One day.

One day. bruh that's why I thought BJSC 124 was a one-off bc all the K-pop qualified and the biggest hit of all of them was APRIL and they'rea. not girl crush like most K-pop groups that get huge hits like EVERGLOW, ITZY, 4Minute, BP, etc. b. practically nugu in Korea (before the scandal at least) at least the Asian pop audience has grown significantly since then which kinda helped |

Most surprising qualifier is definitely Use My Body While It’s Still Young by Rebekka Karijord and most surprising NQ for me is a toss up between Erdem Kinay’s Isporta, Owlle’s Ticky Ticky and Lucia’s Catastrophe. I was also really gutted when Rachel Zeffira’s The Deserters was snubbed

'Use My Body While It's Still Young' is another one that I remember quite well, didn't know that one was a 'surprise' qualifier
 Definitely remember Owlle being a surprise DNQ though! |

I think it was just surprising for me personally, but from the perspective of everybody else, Lone Wolf is probably the most surprising qualifier for Caerfyrddia I’d say?

Needless to say, this is the most shocking DNQ in BJSC history...I don't know what ya'll were thinking!!!
2NE1 - I Am The Best and the most surprised qualifier...I just was shocked to see pure 90's club trance qualifying  Storm - Huri-Khan |

Most surprising qualifier:
Not exactly surprising as such but the DNQs I'd have most liked to have qualified are... |

I'm late but:
I think my most surprising DNQs come when I send pop like above, to the point where I probably shouldn't be surprised anymore. And this was from an era where like 3/4 of my entries were DNQing so I was quite surprised that THIS was the track that stopped me getting 6 DNQs in a row. |

I guess just wanted to bump this bc now I have some actually surprising qualifiers?
The fact that I was convinced that this was gonna flop and almost everyone thought it would DNQ only for it to do pretty well in the end *.* I think for this one it was a manifestation of me having to reconfirm an ungodly amount of times and as a result feeling very apathetic about how y’all would receive this bc typically if I get vetoed I’m not performing at my highest potential so I thought this was gonna be bottom 3 in the semi… and it came top 15. Expecting disappointment really is my superpower huh |

I was pleasantly surprised by The Ritchie Family's 1978 flop doing so well, against predicted expectations:
and was a bit "doh!" at my first ever entry not qualifying, not least because it actually should have qualified but for an accounting error, so a belated shout out 10 years later for this 2000 flop, that I loved that year, and later ended up in Kill Bill Volume 2. Yes this summer will be ten years of Buzzjack Song Contest for Singerpurear, so time permitting I may do a chart Best Of rundown, cos we may be the biggest flop nation of all-time (official!) but as several of them got kudos subsequently or previously outside buzzjack despite DNQ'ing, and my love for almost all of them (bar 2 or 3) remains undimmed, I think they make a fabulous eclectic collection. Well I would wouldn't I?  |

Most surprising qualifier: Get F**ked by an Anchor by Seyetana iirc (ikonek)
Most surprising DNQ: Someone Else by Rezz and Grabbitz by Holland-Oats iirc I still stand by the fact that Seize The Power should never have DNQed and agree with Jafet that the snubbing of BATHSHEBA was a mistake. |

Bumping this thread to add doechii - Crazy and Simon Goff - Vale to the most surprising DNQ or the most robbed entries in the last two editions! Especially the former I had it down to win the entire thing.
