is my brain across your walls? Joined: 14 February 2009 Posts: 115,078 User: 8,300	Our first few qualifiers through Quarter-Final 2 are... Pupok 124 // Erika Vikman - Cicciolina () Skall 127 // Krystal Klear - Neutron Dance Sandénia 124 // renforshort - i drive me mad () Numayania 129 // Marie Davidson & L'Œil Nu - Renegade Breakdown While we play the world's smallest violin for the following fallen soldiers... 40th (11 points) Pagasa 128 // Ministry - Work For Love () 39th (12 points) Kylienips 121 // Papa Roach - Periscope (feat. Skylar Grey) () 38th (16 points) Aesthetica 124 // CHUNG HA - Stay Tonight () 37th (17 points) East Rukahavian 125 // Gabry Ponte and Jerome - Lonely () Pupok, despite suffering the deduction for both of their entries, have a really strong showing as they both advance to the semi-finals, with Erika Vikman doing so despite coming just 34th in the original contest (though in fairness that was also after a deduction). Two more non-top 20 hits also advance - renforshort who came 21st, and Marie Davidson & L'Œil Nu who came 22nd and swiftly give Numayania some better news after losing their other song in the last post. There are a few more sub-20 point scorers in this quarter-final (all post-deduction), none of which should be too surprising.

Aelandor 130 // Clubhouse - Kyra (The Midnight Remix) () Niceland 124 // Boston Manor - Welcome To The Neighbourhood (LeBrock Remix) Oslol 122 // Colton Dixon - Miracles () Danæviia 129 // Aly & Fila and Plumb - Somebody Loves You Lookylion 130 // Gregory Dillon - Sad Magic () And our next batch whose run ends here... 36th (21 points) Daehun 124 // APRIL - LALALILALA () 34th (26 points) Holland-Oats 130 // Wafia - Good Things 30th (38 points) St. Burbia 122 // Grace Carter - Amnesia () 28th (44 points) Unovia 123 // LIZ - Lottery (feat. Aja) () LIZ is the second top 10 hit to fall out and unlike Kat Cunning this one would have missed out even without a deduction sadly.

is my brain across your walls? Joined: 14 February 2009 Posts: 115,078 User: 8,300	Also safely through from Quarter-Final 2 are... Arcodesia 121 // My Nu Leng - City Lights () Dobago 124 // MASTER BOOT RECORD - BAYAREA.BMP () D'yermak'er 123 // NIMMO - Do I Have To Learn It? () Suedeonia 125 // Georgia, Mahotella Queens, Otim Alpha and Nick Zinner - City In Lights And commiserations go out to... 26th (49 points) Why So Sirius 130 // grandson - Dirty 25th (52 points) Elëdan 128 // Essy - One () 24th (57 points) Cadelicia 124 // Icarus - Sirens () 21st (70 points) Kathaldazia 124 // Pascal Letoublon - Friendships A bit of an oof to Essy who has the third and final top 10 hit to not make it through here (and again would have missed out even without the deduction). And to think if it hadn't had the deduction in its original contest it would have been auto-qualifying to the semi-finals here! Kathaldazia put in a good showing considering they didn't make the top 30 with either of their entries in their original contests, but Pascal Letoublon heartbreakingly ends up falling just 1 point short of advancing. Meanwhile, Arcodesia seem to have gone AWOL again here after voting in the first round, but nonetheless they have at least one song in the next round as My Nu Leng is through. Satisfyingly both 'City Lights' and 'City In Lights' advance together. Observant viewers may have noted that I have been going through all the songs that qualified in their original contests first; we'll be going back to Quarter-Final 1 next to see which DNQs have made it through a second TBO round. Results of the Quarter-Final 1 songs which originally DNQed: Q () Q Q Q Q 21st (64 points) 25th (60 points) 26th (56 points) () 27th (56 points) 29th (53 points) 30th (52 points) () 34th (47 points) () 35th (44 points) 37th (33 points) () 39th (30 points) (*) identities to be revealed in the next few posts o: (20th place scored 71 points in both quarter-finals btw)

is my brain across your walls? Joined: 14 February 2009 Posts: 115,078 User: 8,300	The first couple of the Quarter-Final 1 DNQs to make it through to the semi-finals are (still in no particular order)... Holland-Oats 127 // Ball Park Music - Day & Age Danæviia 130 // Adriatique and Marino Canal - Home (feat. Delhia De France) And a valiant effort from these but it's back to reject status for... 39th (30 points) Buzzjack Mountain 127 // dan_g - clouds disappear (e-wurscht mix) () 37th (33 points) Aesthetica 130 // STAYC - SO BAD () 35th (44 points) Land of DW 123 // Kent - Då Som Nu För Alltid 34th (47 points) Arcodesia 122 // Band Of Skulls - Asleep At The Wheel () 30th (52 points) Frandoot 128 // Millie B - Soph Aspin Send () Holland-Oats may have missed out with their actual 'hit', but their reject keeps their TBO career alive for the year! Meanwhile Danæviia successfully keep both of their songs in the competition.

BuzzJack Enthusiast Joined: 22 December 2009 Posts: 1,863 User: 10,284	Yeah, I figured that Kent might be the lowest scoring DNQ (without deduction), really happy for 'Day & Age' though!

Though it did still get one more point than one of the non-deducted qualifiers (Ariana And The Rose)!

is my brain across your walls? Joined: 14 February 2009 Posts: 115,078 User: 8,300	We complete our list of Quarter-Final 1 qualifiers with... Lotunia 126 // Masaru Yokoyama - Uso To Honto Skall 121 // Four Tet - Anna Painting Scherzland 124 // SG Lewis - Chemicals () Which leaves the following going home... 29th (53 points) Summericia 124 // Amy Peters - Salt 27th (56 points) Rolloland 128 // 4 Strings and Susanne Teutenberg - Start Again 26th (56 points) Oslol 130 // Javiera Mena - Corazón Astral () 25th (60 points) Niceland 122 // Duo Teslar - Basement Groove 21st (64 points) Suedeonia 129 // Nation Of Language - The Wall & I Skall are now 2 for 3 on qualifiers through the quarter-finals and with Instinct still in play from QF2 will they maintain a full house? Scherzland have the only DNQ to make it through with a deduction from this quarter-final - out of those with a deduction, Javiera Mena would, like Kat Cunning, have scraped through on a tiebreak if not for being deducted. Sad to see Nation Of Language just missing out, although it's by a 7 point margin this time so not as close as Pascal Letoublon was. Now to inspect Quarter-Final 2's DNQs. Here's how they did, to be filled in in the last two results posts (there were as many as 7 that qualified here, so in all there are 12 songs in the semi-finals vying to repeat Cavetown's feat of making it all the way to the TBO final from the qualifiers last year). Q () Q Q Q Q Q Q 22nd (65 points) () 23rd (59 points) () 27th (47 points) () 29th (43 points) 31st (36 points) 32nd (34 points) () 33rd (33 points) () 35th (22 points)

is my brain across your walls? Joined: 14 February 2009 Posts: 115,078 User: 8,300	The penultimate set of Quarter-Final 2 qualifiers... République d'Áskorza 130 // Rea Garvey and VIZE - The One FARC 130 // Oonagh - Kuliko Jana - Eine Neue Zeit Land of DW 129 // Gloryhammer - Hootsforce And the penultimate set of exits... 35th (22 points) Summericia 128 // Elliot Lee - Pink (Freak) 33rd (33 points) Ojnoj 130 // NIKI DEMAR - Alone In My Car () 32nd (34 points) Hushkanukia 128 // Anja Nissen - Never Alone () 31st (36 points) Aeroche 123 // Tchami - Ghosts (feat. HANA) Like Holland-Oats, they have lost their best performing qualifier but République d'Áskorza march onwards to the semi-final thanks to their reject contender. Land of DW manage to make it 1 for 2 on their rejects, but it's sadly an underwhelming outcome for Summericia who have lost both of theirs, with Elliot Lee somehow ending up with the lowest pre-deduction score of any song across both quarter-finals despite only just missing the final of its original contest. Ouchies. At least Summericia will still have KAS:ST representing them in the semi-finals of course!

is my brain across your walls? Joined: 14 February 2009 Posts: 115,078 User: 8,300	And our last four songs to be heading to the semi-finals from Quarter-Final 2 are... Wholune 129 // Kelsy Karter - Liquor Store On Mars (feat. Adam Slack) () Flynnonda 123 // Yaeji - WAKING UP DOWN Kluminican Republic 129 // Death Grips - Hacker Skall 128 // Instinct - Pistolwhip And we say our last farewells to... 29th (43 points) Mulgracia 128 // Jerome - Take My Hand 27th (47 points) Thelonia 122 // Sono - Keep Control (ARTBAT Remix) () 23rd (59 points) Frandoot 124 // Chappell Roan - Pink Pony Club () 22nd (65 points) Quintessa 129 // Dynazty - The Human Paradox () Skall take their crown as kings of the early TBO rounds as they've managed to keep all three of their eligible songs in going to the penultimate round. Meanwhile Wholune are the third country whose last remaining song in the competition is a DNQ, as Kelsy Karter also joins SG Lewis in the distinction of making it through the quarter-finals despite a deduction. Frandoot die as they lived, with Chappell Roan once again denied advancement due to a deduction; Dynazty would also have made it if not for the lost 15 points (though Quintessa still have some representation left with YooA making it through QF1). Congrats to all qualifiers, commiserations to all non-qualifiers, and thanks to all who have followed along, the TBO semi-finals should be starting in the very near future. x

The owls are not what they seem Pronouns: He/him Joined: 11 July 2009 Posts: 37,129 User: 9,232	Wow I only lost five across both semis and none more than double figures, that has to be one of the best TBO results ever for me? . I swear I'm used to losing like half of my votes, maybe it'll happen next round. Shame about Nation of Language, Duo Teslar and Javiera Mena though, all wonderful.
