Masquerade III: Marit Larsen - I Don't Want To Talk About It All of the good that remains All that memory contains All that is still unexplained after he walked away He is the reason You are the reason why I Don't talk about what we are Don't talk about what we've been What's done is done, I don't want to talk about it It's never just one mistake It's never just one heartbreak What's done is done, I don't want to talk about it So, we were a little too late to enter properly this spin-off  Anyway, we ended up masquerading as Tinnmark with a pretty good scandipop song by the norwegian artist Marit Larsen. Which is someone that I have considered entering in the past, so i'm very happy that I got the chance now. In the end we landed at 24th which is fine more than good enough.~~~ BJSC 144: M83 ft. Susanne Sundfør - Oblivion Since I was young, I knew I'd find you But our love was a song sung by a dying swan And in the night, you hear me calling You hear me calling And in your dreams you see me falling, falling Breathe in the light I'll stay here in the shadow Waiting for a sign, as the tide grows Higher, and higher, and higher There was never really any doubt that Susanne Sundfør was going to by my anniversary entrant. Please enjoy the beautiful "Oblivion" by M83 and Susanne Sundfør! ~~~ *Looks at my iTunes playlist*
Huh. 70 songs combined, eh? I never really thought that I would enter every single spin-off and main contest since I first started participating back in 2017, but here we are. Phew, it's been a good run. Mind you, there were a few close calls were I almost did not enter duo to uni kicking my ass every other month or because of travelling. To sum up my little journey: I've won once, had some top 20 hits (qualifying this days is nothing short of a miracle for me tbh), had some ( |

BJSC 145: Tomorrow X Together - Nap of A Star I wanna be your nap And forever dream together As if nothing was wrong The magical moments The glowing night sky They're engraved in my heart Duo to winning the last contest we got a guaranteed spot in the final. This gave us the chance to send something that normally would strand in the semifinal. "Nap Of A Star" by TXT was the first song that sprung to my mine, a song that I would rather have sent to a spin-off contest under normal circumstances. The MV is essential to the experience and makes the song lullaby-esque or almost fairytale like. I'm very aware that this is not going to set the scoreboard on fire, but I do hope that it gets some fans - so please enjoy!

Pride III: BeBe Zahara Benet - Banjo Gonna take more than a pretty little face Sweet, sweet words in my space No dey play hard, no dey play chase If I wanted to, you’d be laid up in my space Good friends?

BJSC 147: Taeyeon - INVU So I can't love you Even though I do Even if I push you away I can't beat you Even I abandon myself And lose more of myself The irony is that you shine brighter I envy you ~
Such. A. Good. Song. Please enjoy! (Also if you have time, take a listen to "FOREVER 1" - The newest song by Girls' Generation!) |

BJSC 148: IU ft. Suga - Eight So are you happy now? Finally happy now? Yeah Well, I'm just the same I feel like I lost everything Everyone comes and goes as they wish Even without a goodbye If this is how things are I don't want to love again I travel through memories That have become old and worn out Under the orange sun We dance together Where there are no shadows There is no promised seperation See you in my memory That was once beautiful Performance Version From her "coming-of-age" series, here is "Eight" by IU and Suga.

Halloween IV: Faun - Hekate And now you are my anchor In the rapture of this day And your name will be my prayer: Hekate, Hekate, Hekate! You bestow upon me the dreams And now I dream of thee Hekate, approach, I beseech thee Result: 11/29 (61 points) ~~~ BJSC 150: Yoko Kanno ft. Arnór Dan - Von Where things grow, there is hope All that heals holds hope Out of bonds of ice, she appears from Out of a frosty sky, she slowly moves forward When all seems still, all is calm All is silent, hope ignites While everything seeks forward, flows forward Comes into being, then there is hope "I asked Nine what he was always listening to. And he said it was music from a cold land... From Iceland. And then... He said that in Icelandic, V-O-N means... 'hope.'" - Lisa Mishima Went for an japanese-icelandic collaboration this time. This song is taken from Zankyō no Terror which is an anime that Yoko Kanno and Arnór Dan made the soundtrack for. The song is taken from this scene. The artist themselves have appeared in BJSC in the past. Yoko Kanno represented Deandria in the first Movies spin-off, and Arnór Dan represented Jadakissnia together with Hugar in BJSC 95. Edit: Arnór Dan also represented Caerfyrddia together with Ólafur Arnalds on the song "So Close" in BJSC 54.

Arnór Dan was also featured on another BJSC entry which is still up there with my faves of all time, Ólafur Arnalds' 'So Close' (a little before your time, Caerfyrddia in BJSC 54). I loved 'Waves' too so very much looking forward to hearing this one!

Worldvision VII: Chisu - Mysteeri A day goes by, a night goes by A year goes by but still my heart beats for you I guess I can never forget you The streets are full of people, mysteries But they never make me linger Like you always do For this edition of Worldvision we got the choice between Türkiye and Helsinki. At first I intended to send this folk band representing Türkiye. However, I discovered that they were only based there and that almost none of the members were actually turkish. Which led me to Helsinki. Chisu and the song "Mysteeri" was a song I had down for bjsc 151, so sending this song here would free up a spot for the upcoming year. Winning came as a little surprise - I finally now have one of each the medal postions  Well at least in the spin-off forum. Again, thank you so much for the points!Received points from: 12p | Sovarasma
10p | Flynnonda and Pestolia 08p | Altyr Muunilinst, Cor Lupus, République d'Áskorza and Séyetana 07p | Danæviia, Jadakissnia and Land of DW 05p | 04p | 03p | 02p | Beaverdonia, Persephonia, Rolloland and Terra Avium |

Deserved winner. Would actually love to see this in the main contest as it also screams a top 10 contender for me.

Movies II: Gain & Minseo - The Footsteps of My Dear Love Let's dream a happy dream Just like long ago Thrilled to have reached 8th with this beauty (and in a contest we hosted no less!) . Huge thanks to everyone that voted us!~~~ BJSC 152: Adanna Duru - Pop!
Not a beauty in the world you ever seen like this Tell me do you wanna watch me move my waist like this RnB-dreamyesque-Pop. Idk. I first found this back when the MV for the song was released - been loving it ever since and now felt like a good time to enter it. Hope you enjoy! |
