Danaelanda says 
what kind of songs will you be entering? If it's dance we could exchange points
Posted by: Iz~ 23rd February 2015, 09:41 PM
Welcome from Séyetana! If your signature is any indication of what you may send, I will definitely be looking forward to your entries. 
Posted by: HausofFrasier 23rd February 2015, 09:54 PM
They could be a country like most others that send different "kinds of songs" ~ and is dance the ONLY way to get points from you?
(welcome Taahino
)
Posted by: ► ▲ N 23rd February 2015, 10:02 PM
I give points to non-dance songs too occasionally
Posted by: It's Lindsey 23rd February 2015, 10:34 PM
Honestly, I probably wont enter a lot of dance music, but then again you never know
I like a lot of different types of music so I will try and keep versatile...
My signature probably does give a good indication to what I might send in, Tonight Alive are my favourite band!

Good Luck 
Posted by: It's Lindsey 9th March 2015, 11:36 PM
Taahino have decided to go with a bit of Pop-Rock!
This is a band that I instantly became obsessed with after I saw them live whilst they were supporting Tonight Alive on their UK tour last November, it felt only right to chose a band that I personally love as Taahino's first BJSC entry because if it doesn't qualify then at least I've shared some of the music I and the people of Taahino like!
The Summer Set
Lightning in a Bottle
Posted by: CDC 13th March 2015, 04:59 PM
this song is AMAZING! i have loved the summer set for years now and this arguably my FAVE song of theirs
Posted by: Jay ジ 15th March 2015, 05:56 AM
Love your entry! Hope it does well for you.
And random but your nation was established on my birthday.
Posted by: JSG 15th March 2015, 10:09 AM
Great debut entry May luck be with you 
Posted by: It's Lindsey 16th March 2015, 11:09 PM
Taahino managed to qualify from semi final two! 
Thanks to all of you who supported Lightning In A Bottle and I hope you still do through the rest of the BJSC
Good Luck everyone!
Posted by: Noahspike 16th March 2015, 11:11 PM
Nice one Lindsey! Particularly great that you can participate fully in your brother's contest!
Really liking the song by the way.
Posted by: CDC 16th March 2015, 11:26 PM
omg well done, so glad you qualified w/ this amazing band / song! good luck for the final <33
Posted by: Ultraviolence1989 16th March 2015, 11:56 PM
Congrats Lindsay, absolutely loved this debut entry
Posted by: It's Lindsey 5th April 2015, 09:54 PM
We've decided to go with another pop-rock song, I found this band through a song by Pierce The Veil called Hold On Till May (some of you may have seen in in my personal chart before
) Lindsey Stamey, the lead vocalist of the band I've picked for this months contest features on Hold On Till May, I really love that song so I thought I'd look into who Lindsey Stamey was and if she released music of her own or if the song with PTV was just a one off thing, but to my delight it turns out she fronted an awesome band! Oh No Fiasco
All Systems Go
Posted by: It's Lindsey 13th April 2015, 09:38 PM
All Systems Go qualified!
Thanks to everyone who voted for Taahino, here's hoping you still like the song even more when voting in the final commences
Posted by: Lindsey ♌ 6th May 2015, 09:39 PM
We've decided to continue with the theme of rock bands but this time our entry is described as symphonic rock 
This particular track is one of their 'poppiest' I guess you could say, but it's really catchy so I hope people enjoy it! They are a very unique band, taking inspiration from artists like Fall Out Boy and also N-Sync, sounds like a weird mix but this band pull it off so well and hopefully that makes them stand out in the contest. I came across them about a month ago when they popped up as a related artist to some of my favourite bands on Spotify, I then started listening to their music, as well as some of their covers and became obsessed, I went out and bought their album shortly after and it honestly is one of my all time favourites
Set It Off
Forever Stuck In Our Youth
Posted by: Iz~ 6th May 2015, 09:55 PM
I initially started listening to Why Worry when I was getting into them (which was pretty much just after you showed me the Uptown Funk cover ), which is amazing and anthemic, but after taking a couple of listens to this, this might be an even better song from them. Hope it can be a third qualification in a row for you!

), which is amazing and anthemic, but after taking a couple of listens to this, this might be an even better song from them. Hope it can be a third qualification in a row for you!Thanks Iz, I'm glad you like them
I narrowed it down to like four songs from their Duality album, Why Worry was one of them as was Ancient History thinking that they or Forever Stuck In Our Youth would get the best reception on here but I think Wolf In Sheeps Clothing is my favourite from that album but anyone who I've got to listen to it doesn't like it as much as Forever Stuck In Our Youth Their Problem cover tops the Uptown Funk one imo
Posted by: Lindsey ♌ 14th May 2015, 09:32 PM
Third time UNlucky for Taahino, Perseventyfive unfortunately marks the end of our short qualification streak
We look forward to seeing how the final pans out Good luck everyone!

For the first time in Taahinian history we are going with a female soloist and not a band !
BJSC 76
Macy Kate - I H8 That
Posted by: Lindsey ♌ 21st July 2015, 11:49 AM
Taahino will be entering Forever Stuck In Our Youth by Set It Off into the Your Best Of, Rejects spin-off!
It came 24th in it's semi in BJSC 75. Since entering it Set It Off have removed a member from their band, released and acoustic EP and a music video for the very song I'm entering!

Loving this Lindsey
Posted by: Cody Slayberry 30th July 2015, 01:09 AM
The lead singer of The Summer Set was in one of my potentials for July.
HOW DID I NOT SEE THAT

HOW DID I NOT SEE THAT
oh I think I know what song you're talking about! It's great, you should keep it on your potentials list
Posted by: Lindsey ♌ 3rd August 2015, 12:24 AM
It's time to reveal out BJSC 77 entry!
KYKO - Animals
A bit different for Taahino genre wise, but hopefully it will be more successful than our previous two entries
Posted by: ℓindsey ♫ 8th September 2015, 05:20 PM
For BJSC 77 Taahino have gone with...
Big Data - Dangerous ft. Joywave
there is an official music video for this song that has over 8 million views, but it's pretty gory and sexualised and I hate it a lot and I thought it would put people off the song which is why I went with a link to a less-popular audio only video
Posted by: N💎lly. S 8th September 2015, 05:56 PM
I quite liked that disturbing gore-fest. 
But yay for you entering this! 
Posted by: Cody Slayberry 8th September 2015, 06:19 PM
I played the actual video on plug a few times tho
Posted by: ℓindsey ♫ 17th September 2015, 04:42 PM
oh yea, i forgot that it's bjsc ettiquette to update these things because it's been so long since I qualified
yes, Taahino actually end their DNQ streak here!!
Posted by: Bré 17th September 2015, 04:46 PM
You don't seem to have acknowledged your crowning achievement of 6th place in Worldvision yet either!
Congrats on making it to the final again anyway! Looking up the music video for your song actually made me like it more tbh. I don't think a bit of blood is that offputting, didn't seem to harm Audrey Napoleon
Posted by: ℓindsey ♫ 17th September 2015, 04:58 PM
Thanks Bre All update now!

Posted by: Lindsey ♌ 5th November 2015, 05:56 PM
So we came 36th in BJSC 79 with I Like It by We The Kings
For BJSC 80 Taahino will be sending a Canadian pop-punk trio, 2/3 of which are twins

YAS CANADA
I'm hoping it's as good as some of the other amazing discoveries I made from that country
Posted by: Lindsey ♌ 10th November 2015, 02:44 PM
Taahino may flop in the main contest but our Spin-Off entry history is looking pretty good! Halsey matched our peak and came 6th with Haunting
Posted by: Lindsey ♌ 13th November 2015, 02:20 PM
BJSC 80 | Courage My Love - Skin and Bone (L3 Remix)
[left to right: Brandon Lockwood (bass), Mercedes Arn-Horn (lead vocals, guitar) and Pheonix Arn-Horn (drums, backing vocals)]
Taahino are excited to introduce our entry into the final contest of 2015! Courage My Love are a Canadian pop-punk trio that have been on my potentials list for most of the year, except with another song by them called Kerosene. I stumbled across this when I was adding more of their music to my Spotify library a couple of months ago and found they have an EP with different remixes of one of their "Becoming" tracks, Skin and Bone. I think this song is stunning, I love it so much, this remixed version adds so much more to an already lovely song, it may actually be my 2nd favourite Taahinian entry so far, and I really hope you all like it as much
Posted by: Iz~ 13th November 2015, 05:24 PM
Oh yes now I recognise the name! I've had them on my radar for a while, good to see them entered. Looking forward to properly hearing this now, it sounds good from hearing it once, I hope it grows well.

What a lovely top 20. There's me of course but also PVRIS, R-Chord, AK & LYNX, Meg Myers, New Politics, Son Lux, Twenty One Pilots, in fact, all of those are good entries. And about the right winner for your entry rank although Oh No Fiasco is really too low.
Posted by: CodySleighBell-y 12th December 2015, 03:25 PM
I'm surprised Five Knives is your favorite out of all my entries.
Poor "Slow Dancing", I thought that was one of Pupok's best entries to date.
Posted by: SantasLindsleigh 12th December 2015, 03:31 PM
Yea, Oh No Fiasco is one of my favourite entries and one which I thought a lot of people would catch onto, in hindsight I maybe picked the wrong song by them but then Idk what one I would have sent instead as they're all so good
Poor "Slow Dancing", I thought that was one of Pupok's best entries to date.
ooh really
As much as I love West End Kids, I just love the energy etc in Savages, it has more of an edge to it in comparison I like all of Pupok's entries but Slow Dancing is my least favourite, probably because it's a lot dancier than her other entries. Margaux Avril almost didn't make my chart but I just feel it's such a pretty song and very underrated for what it is
Black Out Days though >>>>
Posted by: Michael Bubré 12th December 2015, 03:35 PM
Ooh yay a top 50 place! <3
Good showing for Sleeping With Sirens, v underrated ~
Posted by: Slade 12th December 2015, 04:46 PM
Ooh I knew you were a fan of 'Virtual Paradise' but not quite to the extent of a top 10 EOY placing! I'm so happy to see that you loved it so much.
The results of your own entries is pretty pleasing too! Really glad to see 'Dangerous' as high as third as that's the one in particular that has grabbed me this year.

So the first contest of 2016 is just around the corner but 2015 has brought a lot for Taahino (not a BJSC win no, but still
). Our nation was established in February, we made our BuzzJack Song Contest debut the following month, we found our rock bloc sound pretty quickly but still experimented a little between spin-offs and the main contest. Next year Taahino will develop and grow and come into each contest bigger and better than before (I hope ) SO to mark this new era that we are about to venture into, the people of Taahino felt an image change was necessary. Introducing the new national flag of Taahino...
|||-/
Posted by: popchartfreak 18th December 2015, 12:42 PM
hey L cool flag waving in the virtual breeze there! jealous much!
keep on with the BJSC entries, I always enjoy Taahino tunes
Posted by: SantasLindsleigh 20th December 2015, 01:07 AM
Taahino did better than expected in The Best Of Rejects contest! KYKO - Animals finished 25th and Set It Off - Forever Stuck In Our Youth came 2nd!! I can't described how happy I am about Set It Off's placing, excluding spin-offs, FSIOY is my favourite entry that I've sent this year, and I adore Set It Off so I was really sad at them not qualifying back when I entered them into the main contest, however that doesn't matter now as it did better than any of my songs have this year
Thanks again to those who have pointed Taahino through out the year

So roll on CHRISTMAS!

are you caught up in the mystery of our BJSC 81 entry? 
Posted by: ℒ𝓲𝓷⻤ 20th January 2016, 10:03 PM
BJSC 81
Tonight Alive - How Does It Feel?
It's about time we sent some Tonight Alive and with the release of their new album approaching, now is the best time to do so! I can't describe how much I love this band and I really hope people catch onto them this month with what we've sent!
Posted by: ℒ𝓲𝓷⻤ 16th February 2016, 01:36 AM
I updated the main post with how Tonight Alive did in the final of '81 but I never actually posted about it so in case you did miss it, How Does It Feel placed 18th giving Taahino a new peak record for the main contest!!
______
So can we improve on that at all with our entry into BJSC 82?
Crystalyne - Punks Don't Dance
Taahino are kind of recycling with this as I sent a much rockier song by them into the last nuggets contest, I discovered this track back then when I was looking for an entry and I really liked it but felt it wasn't quite right for Nuggets but I also thought it was even too poppy for BJSC so never really regarded it as a potential, but it has caught the attention of a few of you on here when I've played it randomly so I thought why not represent the pop-rock genre once again but try my luck with a song that leans more on the pop side.

WITH THE BEST SONG ON THEIR DISCOGRAPHY

*Announcement*
Taahino has undergone some political changes. The people of Taahino felt they could no longer run themselves and needed a strong figure head to lead us to victory (hopefully) in BJSC and also establish ourselves as one of BuzzJacks most loved nations. It's with great honour to announce that http://the100.wikia.com/wiki/Lexa is the leader we have been longing for and has welcomed us with open arms as the thirteenth http://the100.wikia.com/wiki/The_Grounders_(Earth) clan. We're also the first clan to exist as part of the Kongeda that's situated overseas and not under the capital of Polis. This has been an extremely positive change that was introduced at the beginning of the year, Heda felt that we needed a 'trial period' of sorts before solidifying our place as the thirteenth clan given their problems with the past thirteenth clan and the fact we're situated further away from the capital than the other 12 clans, hence why this announcement is coming now, just before the next contest. We've also adopted the native grounder tongue of http://the100.wikia.com/wiki/Trigedasleng_(language) as some of you may have noticed. 
I realise this will mean near enough nothing to most of you unless you watch The 100 oops
Oh and we came 12th with Evanescence - Bring Me To Life in the BuzzJack 10 Year Anniversary Contest!

BJSC 83 | SEVEN LIONS - LOSE MYSELF FT. LYNN GUNN
Taahino have finally dived into the POOL of the dance bloc after merely dipping our toes in at the end of 2015. Jeff Montalvo, aka Seven Lions is the artist that has managed to temporarily~ convert us, and not only because Lyndsey Gunnulfsen aka Lynn Gunn aka PVRIS' vocalist is featured This song is one that I've loved for a while now and has been a Taahinian potential since May last year, I still adore it so I'm glad to finally be sharing it via the contest!

I've been loving Seven Lions since "Strangers" and I probably would have gone crazy had you not sent it (or sent a different song by them)

BJSC 84 ||| ICON FOR HIRE - NOW YOU KNOW
god I'm almost as bad at remembering to update this as I am with my personal chart
Taahino have gone pretty different again this month with a feminist rap anthem by a female fronted rock band *.* It's still pretty rocky and infectious though so hopefully has the potential to be one of our signature tracks
WHO GAVE US THE IDEA THAT FEMALE FRONTED IS A GENRE ANYWAY?!
Posted by: ℒ𝓲𝓷⻤ 31st May 2016, 10:24 PM
BJSC 84 ||| RESULT
Icon For Hire managed to get us a new peak at 14th! A little disappointing that we just missed out on our first top ten but 14th is still amazing and more than we expected so thanks to everyone that supported Taahino this contest
In BJSC 85 Taahino plan to bring you something a little bit different! I was dead set on sending a 'typical' Taahinian entry to 85 but something's not quite clicking with the rest of the BuzzJack globe with such tracks so it's time to adjust our sound a little, hopefully it will pay off! We'll no doubt share the other entry at some point but now is definitely the time to experiment a little bit more. It's got drums.

Definitely would have been a fantastic first top 10 for you, unlucky at being so close. You'll get there eventually I'm sure.

Taahino have gone back to our roots firmly this month sending a rock track with female vocals. I feel like this is our 'signature' sounds really and possibly one of my favourite ever entries I've sent. I was very indecisive this month but I'm glad this is what I went with in the end! I hope you all really like it and give it a couple of listens as it's a total grower but hopefully it has enough instant appeal too!
Beautiful Bodies have released their debut album 'Battles' already and this track is one of the highlights but it's an extremely consistent album and every song is amazing and of the same high standard so if you like C&R then I urge you to listen to it asap!
Posted by: Jacob Alan 13th June 2016, 10:42 PM
YAS Lindsey!
Posted by: Iz~ 16th June 2016, 01:47 AM
It's too late to be awake but having just been properly blown away by this - I have to say I think I shall have to be checking out that album as soon as possible.
Posted by: ℒ𝓲𝓷⻤ 16th June 2016, 10:55 AM
Yay! It's possibly one of my all time faves, I'd put it up there with White Noise by PVRIS tbh, I completely adore it, Ravens, Lies, Invincible and Subversive Lover make up my top five from it with Capture and Release so defo give them a listen
Posted by: Iz~ 16th June 2016, 08:38 PM
Ravens is instantly a fave <3 Very lovely album, thanks for the discovery.

||| UPDATE |||
This year saw Commander Lexa take her place as Taahino's rightful ruler. Since then changes have been made to cement our place within the alliance of the thirteen clans. Our cities have improved, our industries are thriving, Taahino's economy has never looked better. People are more patriotic and loving of one another thanks to the unity Heda Leksa has brought to us. As a symbol of our gratitude and just how much being part of the Kongeda means to the people of Taahino, a lot of our cities have now undergone a title change. Here is the new map of Taahino as well as a brief outline about each area.
Oneirozo - Our capital city remains the same. The name loosely translates to 'city of dreams'. It was titled this as it was the first town to be built when Taahino first came to be, the locals saw the potential it had and never doubted what could be achieved there. 100 years ago it was the centre of everything, our industry, our politics, our culture, our trade but now all of that has expanded across the nation. Oneirozo is Taahino's most built up city, it's massively populated and is refered to the city that never sleeps. There's always something going on, if not during business hours there's fabulous nightlife and culture to be had.
Floudonku - Is one of the smaller towns of Taahino, mostly home to those in the fishing industry. It's costal location makes it a fine place to trade, as well as it being the closest city to our border with Pupok. There's not much else to see in Floudonku, it's very much a residential area or a place to escape for those who don't like the hustle and bustle of Oneirozo. It has a small village that is still has old, original buildings and oozes local history.
Maun Gunneda - 'Gunneda Mountains' is the second of our small towns that are fairly secluded from the rest of the country. Like Floudonku it's home to those who wish to escape city life and is home to a lot of outdoors-y people as there are some stunning nature trails at the base of the mountains. There are even less locals living here that in Floudonku as it does not have a village but instead some log cabins built with the forest. There's two camp sites though so it does attract a lot of tourists who want to spend time with nature, go hikes, climb the mountains or witness the vast amount of nature that inhabits the forest.
Triianya - Is the most popular holiday nation for people visiting Taahino as it has a little bit of everything that the country has to offer. A lot of the grounders that migrated to Taahino after we joined Lexa's Kongeda settled here as it's described to hold little elements of their homes too. There's a long sandy beach that stretches for miles along the coastline, fishing at the river and a dense forest, not unlike the one at the south of the country in Maun Gunneda. It also has a busy town making it the best place to go shopping if natives don't wish to make the trip to Oneirozo.
Yorkappolis - Is the prime spot for all things music and culture. Any Taahinian person who wishes to pursue a career in music, art, theatre etc aspires to live here as it's the best place for creatives to thrive. It was the second city to be built after the capital and has always had cultured roots. It's nicknamed 'rock city' as it's most known for being home to so many rock fans. It's also home to the countries largest arena which has won awards for it's sound quality. Franklin Arena really is the ultimate venue for a lot of artists to play, not just those native to Taahino but to a lot of artists across the buzzjack globe. There's also a couple of schools and a university in Yorkappolis,as well as a shopping centre, cinema, theatre, arts centre and a museum and gallery.
Leksoncha - Is the heart of all Taahino's industry, it's not very residential at all and doesn't have much attraction except for jobs. There's also a university in Leksoncha but whilst Yorkappolis University focuses on art and literature and the likes, The University of Leksoncha is more about business, trade and all things science. Unlike Triianya the coastline by Leksoncha is filled with boats and market stalls rather than tourists. All of Taahino's factories are in Leksoncha also.
Polis 
It's a strange place for a 21st century nation, it's only major building is Lexa's tower which is central to Natblida Isle. It was formerly a holiday destination before the alliance but now it's used for all our political matters and as an army training ground, Lexa also stays here on her visits as she can see the whole country from the top of her tower, apparently. The Kongeda bridge was built at the beginning of 2016 running from south Leksoncha to Polis as a symbol of the people of Taahino linking with those of the other clans of Polis, although the land has always been part of Taahino, it very much belongs to all of the clans now and is the central meeting place for all the ambassadors.
Some Taahinan history will be coming soon also

its defo one of my faves of the bunch but I think it's probably the most hit or miss and there's not really a comfortable middle ground where it can at least Q
Posted by: Iz~ 23rd July 2016, 09:24 PM
I didn't know Lacey Sturm had solo material
From taking quick snippet listens the first four sound potentially excellent. Maybe Andy Black as well.

Posted by: memebury. 25th July 2016, 12:21 AM
Well I've had consistent DNQs for ages and then suddenly top 10, perhaps your run of top 15s will end and you'll get a top 5 in a similar fashion? 
Posted by: meme 25th July 2016, 07:12 AM
Would Andy Black not get vetoed (coming from a veto expert ), but I'd go for that if you think it wouldn't
Posted by: ℒ𝓲𝓷⻤ 25th July 2016, 10:57 AM
Here's hoping Spadz
I'm not sure if Andy would get vetoed but it's probably worth a try at least I guess, I am completely stuck on which way to go this month though so any feedback is much appreciated guys, I've added a link to a surveymonkey rank thing at the bottom of the post so you can put them in order of your fave to your least if you want to
Posted by: Liаm 25th July 2016, 06:15 PM
Done the Surveymonkey, have to echo the Ghost Town love *.*
Posted by: memebury. 25th July 2016, 06:28 PM
Done the rank, the first two were alright but maybe not something I'd point, but the Openside song sounds like something I could give a decent amount of points to I think HEIRSOUND is giving me some Tonight Alive vibes also so I'd probably point that too. Ghost Town is quite good even if it is male rock
Posted by: ℒ𝓲𝓷⻤ 25th July 2016, 07:01 PM
I think HEIRSOUND is giving me some Tonight Alive vibes also so I'd probably point that too. Ghost Town is quite good even if it is male rock as apposed to 'female rock' as that's totally a separate genre....
Posted by: memebury. 25th July 2016, 07:10 PM
I just prefer female a lot more
Posted by: Bré 25th July 2016, 11:18 PM
Have done a ranking on the SurveyMonkey as well anyway cos why not But:
'Alive' > 'Spark' > 'Feels Like Forever' > 'We Don't Have To Dance' > 'My Own' > 'Worth It' > 'Mountain'
Most of these pretty much fit the standard Taahino niche which is good for getting another reliable top 20 I guess! (Actually the one that doesn't sound like a standard Taahino entry is the one I liked the least ) However those top 2 in particular I think are better than your usual entries for me. 'Alive' has a great chorus, which I often feel is lacking from your entries and lets them down a bit. I feel like I already know 'Spark' really well from it being played on plug.dj, would be a very good choice as well anyway, reminds me a little bit of Muse in the instrumental!
Posted by: HarryEzra 26th July 2016, 12:35 AM
Have done the ranking for you
Ghost Town what a beast of a song and also liked Herisound I think them two and also can see Openside and Tigress doing well Hope this helps
Posted by: Math ☂ 26th July 2016, 01:49 AM
Voted. 'Alive' is MILES better than the others imo, though I think you'll have varying levels of success with the rest. (except for maybe 'Mountain'.)
Posted by: ℒ𝓲𝓷⻤ 7th August 2016, 09:57 PM
BJSC 87 ||| GHOST TOWN - SPARK
That's right, we've gone with the slightly heavier sounding rock band that is Ghost Town. They've been on my radar for quite some time now, I first heard of them via a Kerrang 'One's to watch' show or something like that, they're signed to Fuelled By Ramen (Paramore, Against The Current, Panic! At The Disco etc) so really do have the makings of a solid rock band. They're a trio from California, described as an 'electronic rock band' but tbh their more recent stuff sounds more grungy than electronic, although there's some really strong dubstep influences in their earlier material. Spark is by far their most anthemic song though and has a pretty cool video which is why I went for it.
*Edit*
This also came out top in the ranking... Ghost Town > Lacey Sturm > Tigress/Openside > Andy Black > Heirsound > HalfNoise

We've got our fourth DNQ now. I think my streak was at 10 or something too but now that's kaput oooops
Anyway it's hella likely I'm gonna be taking a bit of a break from this, idk how long for, I guess until I find a song I'm not just entering for the sake of it as that's really what I have been doing for most of this year and I haven't really been enjoying it the way I was last year. In all honesty it was my qualification streak that was keeping me entering this long but now I don't have that as an excuse so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Posted by: Jacob Alan 12th September 2016, 11:00 PM
Aw, I hope you do enter still, your entries are really consistently great (for me) and I really need your support next contest.
But up to you obviously, I do get it especially if you've been entering nearly every month for over a year.
Posted by: The Codemeister 13th September 2016, 12:44 AM
Is this because of the Lexa gifs
(Then again I had the same type of meltdown after Snow Tha Product DNQ'd so this means history is on your side!)
Posted by: Lindsey⚙ 13th September 2016, 09:36 AM
Na like I said I'm just fed up of it atm and taking a break from the contest is something I've been wanting to do for months, I just didn't want to willingly walk away from my qualification streak so I've been waiting on it ending tbh
The only song I've had on my potentials list that I've been completely obsessed with and was really excited to send was the song that someone beat me to confirming this month so from the beginning I already wasn't as invested in it as I would have been. It's no fun when you don't really care about how your song does, aren't making the same amount of discoveries any more and you can't even share potentials without breaking any rules and if you do it the proper way you end up sabotaging yourself.
But yea I didn't really find the Lexa gifs funny in the context you used them in

gonna do something I didn't think I'd do again and post a few potentials in here because quite frankly idk what to send.

All good but the vocalist on Greywind really stands out v. well, like, that vocal style is impossible to ignore so if you're going for one of your rock entries go for that one. Okay is also a v. good song, I'm familiar with that one already of course but very strong song. Luna Blake is definitely an option for something different.

Hello, I am Lexa, Commander of the thirteen clans. I welcome you all into this new year. For the citizens of Taahino and others of the BuzzJack globe, I welcome you into a new era of BJSC. As by Taahinian tradition, a new year marks a new flag to represent our progression and development as a nation.
So without further ado, I present that to you.
I am also going to present to you our representatives for the year's first contest. A band that has been considered before, Greywind. An Irish duo, who reside in the Taahinian city of Yorkappolis. Myself and the kongeda ambassadors have decided to put what song they go with up for public decision. Of course, to stay within the contest guidelines you will not know which song has won the race - so to speak - until the semi finals of the first contest are up. You are however free to discuss the songs at your will.

'Afterthoughts' was my fav! Steph (it took me ages to find her name ) has such a unique voice and I think in 'Afterthoughts' it really shows that, especially at the beginning, that it was grabbed my attention and made me like it instantly! 'Car spin' is probably after that along with 'Forest Ablaze', the other two were good but I didn't think they stood out as much Good artist choice though! I've already made a discovery and the contest hasn't even started yet

It was a tough one, it was between this and afterthoughts in the end, this is their most recent and seems to be getting a lot of hype from Kerrang so that's how I ended up going with it Thanks guys!

So Greywind didn't do as well as I'd hoped, finishing 34th... Yup starting off the year with a placing even lower than anything seen in 2016 (besides our dnq)
Next month we're purposely making an effort to avoid guitars and rock all together and we're gonna try and find something very un-Taahino just to mix it up

!
It was a shame to see you so low but it was a qualifier. Very interested to see what you go with next month now.

I don't get how this did so badly especially with a new rock bloc member joining in this contest! This was my favourite of your female rock entries to date. Shame ~

'Human' is SO bloody wonderful.

Thank you! I should probably post it in here
BJSC 92 ||| SEVDALIZA - HUMAN
VERY different from our usual stuff but stunning all the same, got zero idea how this will do but I hope y'all like this change in direction from us
Posted by: Bré 19th February 2017, 04:29 PM
This is brillllll.
Posted by: Jade 19th February 2017, 04:38 PM
Oh yes this is very good, sooooo chilled! It's even better than 'That Other Girl' *.*
Switching it up this month was a great move, I hope you're rewarded with your best result to date!
Posted by: Cucumberella 19th February 2017, 04:57 PM
taahino's first top 10 pls
Posted by: ʟɪɴᴅsᴇ 27th February 2017, 12:53 PM
We managed to place higher than last time with 'Sevdaliza - Human' but unfortunately didn't meet expectations and fell short of the top twenty by coming in 26th :')

BJSC 93 ||| K.Flay - High Enough
Taahino is back to guitars, but not quite in our usual way. K.Flay brings us a lush moody bop, hoping to continue our Q streak this contest

why didn't you send blood in the cut tho 
Posted by: ʟɪɴᴅsᴇ 13th March 2017, 09:36 AM

Guess who actually updated their opening post for the first time since March
Posted by: Lindsey 🙃 26th January 2018, 08:51 PM
okay its 2018 and I am determined to get my first top ten (hopefully hayley can do it for me) but lets just take a minute to reflect on the amount of injustices i've had (see poll xxx)
Posted by: CodyOfTheWoods 26th January 2018, 09:55 PM
2016 Taahino was a GIFT FROM GOD
The fact that you got a song on DWTS before me tho

ikr and it was for lindsey stirling *.*
honestly my run from like Courage My Love - Skin and Bone (L3 Remix) to Ghost Town - Spark was so solid
Posted by: The-BrightPlaces 26th January 2018, 10:55 PM
I said them all bc u usually do badly lol
Posted by: Lindsey 🙃 26th January 2018, 11:12 PM
not that badly!! just not as well as i should be doing lol
Posted by: Bré 28th January 2018, 11:08 PM
Sevdaliza is clearly the biggest injustice.
(Courage My Love / Ghost Town / Tigress / Tonight Alive 'Temple' shoulda been top 10s too x)
Posted by: Liаm 28th January 2018, 11:28 PM
Now You Know and Temple not making top 10 were both absolutely ridic. I REALLY thought for both it would happen, surely it will with Curious but I won't hold my breath with the rampant Taahino racism :/
Posted by: Jade 29th January 2018, 12:36 AM
I voted for 'Now You Know' as your biggest injustice as I was SO sure that was going to be a top 10 bjsc should've rewarded that feisty feminist anthem more. 'Human' also finished way too low. I thiiiink it could finally be your time for a top 10 though as 'Curious' sounds big and I only feel that way about a handful of songs this time. Hope it doesn't suffer too much with the pophoe dropouts.
Posted by: SevenSeize 29th January 2018, 12:46 AM
DANGEROUS all the way
Posted by: Lindsey 🙃 29th January 2018, 03:33 AM
I'm feeling good about Curious tbh, Tonight Alive managed to get me 10th in Rejects and then 11th in AC so hopefully this is the start of a theme that will extend into the main contest and at the very least I can beat 14th and get a new peak *.*
*DNQs*
Posted by: Lindsey 🙃 5th February 2018, 10:24 PM
Yassssssss!! FINALLY we have a new peak and our first ever top ten!!
