'Chariots' being in the EOY top 10 for two different countries, the impact.

 Wallis Bird "Hardly Hardly" Andra Chansen Originally sent by Palmyra back in our second contest in 2014, this entry completely passed us by due to being in the opposite semi, until finally hearing it while nominating for TBO Rejects and it was SO instant. There were loads of fabulous flops to pick from for this Andra Chansen contest, but we felt this would stand out and even more so being near the end of the running order! For fun's sake here are the other entries that made our shortlist, including one of our own: Cumulonimbia - Jones "Deep" Harmonica - The Flavr Blue "We Can Go Blind" Pupok - Marina Kaye "Dancing With The Devil" Republic of Adonia - Anna Of The North "The Dreamer" |

 Joshua Micah "Who Says" CI This was already in our top 5 favorite entries of all time even before we sent it! It's a really really special one for us so hopefully it'll make an impression on at least one other person/country  |

Wallis Bird "Hardly Hardly" Andra Chansen: 17th We did it! We re-introduced 'Hardly Hardly' to the BJSC and they embraced it this time  In fact it was just 2 points away from making the top half of the scoreboard.12 points: Desbuanda 10 points: Hushkanukia 6 points: Lotunia 5 points: Vulkyria 4 points: Dobago 3 points: FSR Rontvia, Republique d'Ashton, Taahino 2 points: Persephonia, Trifoski Joshua Micah "Who Says" CI: 34th So, we did the unthinkable and got a twink in the final without the help of Actual Bellamia or Bignia-Zaragovina  and with the final being smaller than usual too. A finish near the bottom was to be expected really, but it's always nice to start the year off with a song qualifying, especially when it's one of your favorite entries you've ever sent. We managed to get votes from 16 countries, and honestly are really shocked at some of those that pointed it, so thanks!18 points: Niceland 15 points: Ramrynia 13 points: Suedeonia 9 points: Greenfroze, Republique d'Ashton 8 points: Holland-Oats 7 points: Azure, Tinnmark 5 points: Aesthetica, Taahino 4 points: Altyr Muunilinst 3 points: #00274E, Quintessa, Singerpurear 1 point: Jupiterdonia, New Lexico |

 Malory "Rapture" CII: did not qualify Malory is a singer from South London and 'Rapture' was discovered on an episode of The Challenge on MTV! Was hoping y'all would appreciate her lovely voice, the way the verses build, and the "ethereal perfection" as one Soundcloud comment puts it...but only like three people voted for it in the semifinal  |

 Marc E. Bassy feat. Kyle "Plot Twist" CIII: did not qualify PLOT TWIST INDEED. I never thought it would end up like this. It should be no secret that 'iSpy' was my least favorite song of 2017. Awful awful awful, I hoped to never hear from Kyle again after that. I was first introduced to 'Plot Twist' in its remix form which featured Hailee Steinfeld. Obviously that'd be vetoed, so I ventured further and found the original. Gave it a go, what's the worst that could happen etc....lo and behold Kyle's version is just as good as Hailee's . I didn't send it last month because I couldn't bear to see it bottom 3 in the semi, then I ended up getting bottom 3 in the semi anyway. This did just a little bit better (still DNQd tho), so maybe it should've been sent last month in the first place. Seriously though, TUNE <3 |

 Ary "Already There" CIV: did not qualify Happy 40th anniversary to ourselves We mark the occasion by sending (for a second time) Ary, the vocalist on our second-favorite BJSC entry of all time. We were going to save this for BJFestivalen, but the circumstances were right and we're too excited to wait on this one! 'Already There' is soooo much more instant than her last entry ('Higher', which scraped through to the final in 93) so hopefully Ary will get a new peak in BJSC!Edit:  Still not over this

 Dinovski feat. Caitlyn Scarlett "Island Of Sin" CV: did not qualify Another entry of ours gets completely overlooked, despite being perfect for summer and sounding like something a handful of Buzzfaves would record (Dua especially came to mind). Our DNQ streak is now 4, our longest since 80-83! |

 Ocean Park Standoff feat. Lil Yachty "If You Were Mine" CVI A male pop entry with a featured rapper, what could possibly go wrong?  This was a radio discovery, our third this year following 'Who Says?' and 'Plot Twist'. It was surprisingly instant for us and we're in a pop-friendly semi so we'll see if a miracle can happen. Just hoping one or two people will like it really!Edit: apparently Samantha Ronson is in this band!? That's weird Edit: Happy 5-year Buzzjack anniversary to me |

Ocean Park Standoff feat. Lil Yachty "If You Were Mine" CVI: 33rd It worked, we qualified! It was never meant to be the most memorable entry but for just a simple and catchy song it was definitely worth sending. Stay tuned to see what we've got lined up for August! And for now, thanks to the following 17 countries for pointing us: 15 points: Ramrynia 12 points: Frandoot, Oslol 11 points: Aeroche, Enty, Tinnmark 9 points: New Lexico 7 points: Seyetana 6 points: Ojnoj, Yehesi 4 points: Unovia, Vulkyria 3 points: Desbuanda, Flynnonda, Suedeonia 2 points: Taahino 1 point: Republique d'Ashton |

 The Aces "Put It On The Line" CVII Saw this band live two months ago and just had to send them here! It's our first even remotely rock entry in nearly two years. Also didn't realize Triangledonia had sent The Aces exactly two years ago (in BJSC 87) and they DNQd, so here they are again aiming for justice. |

 Campsite Dream "Dreams" Re-Invention II: 25th Twas a bit of a risk to send a tropical house cover when it's no longer a trend, and when the original is so highly regarded here, but twas nice to get this off our potentials list after a year and a half. It sadly didn't do as well as our previous Re-Invention entry (The Amity Affliction's screamo cover of Lana's 'Born To Die') but this easily could've been bottom 5 so fortunately we were spared that embarrassment! The Aces "Put It On The Line" CVII: 18th BLOWN AWAY by the success of this entry! Not only did we avenge The Aces' previous DNQ, we got ourselves our first Q streak in 8 contests, our first top 30 in 8 contests AND our first top 20 in 8 contests! Aeroche and Cor Lupus who?  Obligatory thanks to the following!15 points: New Lexico, Trifoski 13 points: Florina, Holland-Oats 12 points: Taahino, Ultraviolenceland 11 points: Quintessa 10 points: Lotunia 9 points: Republique d'Ashton 8 points: Aesthetica, Tartford 7 points: Altyr Muunilinst 6 points: Botanikka, Daehun 5 points: Azure, Skall 4 points: Hushkanukia 3 points: Cor Lupus, FARC, Persephonia, Singerpurear, The Actual Republic of Bellamia 2 points: Summericia 1 point: Ojnoj, Ramrynia |

 for KING & COUNTRY "joy." CVIII Hey, we were sending Christian entries before it became popular. That said I can't believe we're actually sending this one! We do like to alternate between male artists and female artists, plus it's certainly gonna stand out. Do you choose joy? Let it move you  BREAKING NEWS
Speaking of Christian music, our BJSC 100 entry 'Cover The Earth' by Daniella Mason has been covered by two Christian artists - fitting right into current BJSC trends - and was just spotted in the top 100 on US iTunes! It's a great cover too, justice for its DNQ *.* |
