Bit late, but I would really like for Love to Love You to have a chance in future rounds, you could just send the single edit?

One I’m considering for the next free choice round!

I’ve got so many options for that round so I’ll see!

Ok so we came a dismal 10th place but it’s all good we’re just gonna get some Donna Summer bangers out there now as clearly she is not one of the front runners- with many of the songs being submitted by other artists I’ve grown up with them and connected memories to them whereas most people, including myself, have not particularly grown up with Donna so I recognise there’s not that fact that they might already be well-known.

We move on with optimism because my number 1 pick for this round is a somewhat, dark, disco number, True Love Survives.

I think the 2 number 1 non-single choices for Donna are Lucky and Romeo so I’m going to save that battle for the final non-single round!

My only other option for this round is Nightlife which I put forward for the first non-single round but I was quite happy with how Tokyo did!

Just reposting this:

As a source as to what is and isn't considered "uptempo", google states that typically an uptempo track is 120 bpm. I think we'd be willing to look at anything over 100 bpm (Beyonce - Crazy In Love & Justin Timberlake - Rock Your Body both come up as roughly 100 bpm so we'll use that as a guide)

If you can't be bothered to find out what would be eligible lmk and I'll source it! happy.gif

I really enjoyed True Love Survives! Slowly but surely I'm becoming a Donna fan *.*

Brilliant stuff!!! This song hasn’t done the best it seems but I think it’s a fab track and love it being listened to by so many!

Not a vintage round for us but hey-ho onwards we go!!!

So this is a round where I’ve got SO many choices to get through here they are-
On The Radio
Last Dance
Macarthur Park
Love To Love You Baby
State of Independence

Last Dance is my favourite (because I have the Drag Race love for Scarlet attached to it) but State of Independence is a different sound to what’s been displayed. They’re all super strong pop tracks and would love some ideas on what to send

LTLYB is one that I can’t imagine would do to well in this competition but it’s a fantastic song!

I think it’s between Last Dance (which is quite similar to songs I’ve already sent) or State of Independence which is a slightly different sound for her

On The Radio and Macarthur Park are both very similar to Last Dance so can be swapped in place of that

Ok I’ve put them in a random selector and I think the choice I’ve made could very well not be the most successful (for one particular reason) but it’s a phenomenal track

So between Lucky and Romeo for this one-

Romeo has a very Blondie-feel to it which I really adore and Lucky is her most streamed non-single and is very I Feel Love in its production

Another round, another time for Donna to do mediocre!!!

Go vote for Romeo- it’s one you’ll love if you’re a fan of Blondie, the B-52s etc, it’s very New York punk rock 80s kinda energy!

Well- she’s not had a stellar run but Donna’s ready to Shangela her way to the top spot with a comeback so powerful it could be a song by Major Lazer and Ellie Goulding

It’s the pinnacle of pop and dance music and one of the songs that is claimed to be the start of EDM music as we know it-
