I wasn’t in Herbilore’s semi final last time around, so I didn’t get a chance to support them, but this entry is marvellous and compelling. I might add it has grown on me even more since I heard it in the semi final! Truly delighted at your first qualification!

BJSC 167 - HUSK
For our 6th contest, Herbilore are sending the trans acceptance anthem 'Born Again' by HUSK. HUSK is another friend of the president, bringing entrancing gaelic electrofolk into the competition. Final Position: 28th in Semi Final 1 Points scored: 20 Interesting this one. When I first heard all the songs in SF1 I expected to not qualify (there was definitely a theme and I expected other countries to vote on that theme). We then got some nice comments and a few predictions to qualify. So of course we came last in the semi.....(at least we only lost 2 of our semi final votes this time) Thanks to the following nations for points: * Wholune - 7pts * Persephonia - 5pts * Trifoski - 4pts * FSR Rontvia - 2pts * Skall - 2pts This post has been edited by Herbs: 12th September 2024, 07:29 AM |
