Welcome back to the Genre Forum Song Contest!

I'm happy to finally bring you the voting thread for the grand final

Each forum has nominated, shortlisted and then voted from numerous songs to find ones that both the moderators and posters alike feel represent their favourite genre forum(s) the best. Below is a list of twenty five songs, five from each of the five genre forums participating [Indie, Rock and Alternative, Pop, R&B and Urban, Dance, Electro and House and Eurovision]. The mods set up voting rounds to determine 4/5 of those songs but it was up to them what went through as the 5th, a little last minute wildcard introduction there . The running order has been determined by random.org but alternates between the forums to ensure fairness, except for the wildcards, they all appear at the end

here are your finalists!

POP 2 WIN

Going to find it very hard to vote in this, amazing set of songs as a whole!

Posted by: lewistgreen 18th November 2016, 10:26 PM

Such a fantastic concept, cannot wait to vote! Going to be difficult to chose just 10

Posted by: Ryan. 18th November 2016, 10:28 PM

Fabulous! *.*

Could I be awkward and change Ivi's link to this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4yYlH_p_4ic
The audio on the Eurovision channel has always been muffled for some reason, her VEVO version is how it is supposed to sound!

Thank you!

I think we all agree that Eurovision has beat Pop at their own game with some of these choices *.*

Posted by: ʟɪɴᴅsᴇ 18th November 2016, 10:39 PM

I'm impressed with the standard you guys have come out with, even pop

It's so difficult to pick out what will win this as it's an equal mix of genres and each one has it's own "bloc" effectively so it could go any way i think

Posted by: Addy K!ng 19th November 2016, 04:17 PM

this is so good...that opener OMG

And wish plug dj session was on Monday or Wednesday

Posted by: Dobbo 19th November 2016, 04:30 PM

So many fantastic songs here across ALL the genres (well except one but I shan't mention ), really great playlist this makes actually!

Posted by: 152chris 19th November 2016, 04:45 PM

this is gonna be HARD

Posted by: ʟɪɴᴅsᴇ 19th November 2016, 05:37 PM

I can do Monday if more people prefer that, Monday or Tuesday is the best for me since I'm gonna be busy from Thursday through until Sunday

Plug session now or this time tomorrow? These are the only chances I've really got to do it folks

Posted by: Iz~ 21st November 2016, 08:00 PM

If it's on tonight I'll come, if it's on tomorrow I'll come, I can make both. I guess that's not very specific. Maybe I'd say tomorrow now?

Just realised I came off without saying thanks for running this Lindsey - and effectively, the forums have gotten together a good set of songs here. My provisional votes are looking very 'best of the best'.

Posted by: ʟɪɴᴅsᴇ 26th November 2016, 02:21 PM

More pls

Posted by: ʟɪɴᴅsᴇ 28th November 2016, 10:14 AM

CLOSED!

Thanks to Cameron, darkstar79, Dobbo, Pete, Alanna, Sam, Harry, Iz , Dan, Riser, Mattias, Seven and Pavel for voting

Results should be with you tonight

Posted by: Oliver 28th November 2016, 04:24 PM

Gah missed this! And judging by the amount of voters my 12 points could have really made a difference!

Posted by: Cameron 28th November 2016, 05:07 PM

All Genre Forum Mods should have made the effort to vote! Judging my Co-Mods so much

Posted by: UltraBasicWitch 28th November 2016, 05:10 PM

Lindsey did you get my votes?!

Posted by: ʟɪɴᴅsᴇ 28th November 2016, 05:20 PM

I did Sam! Sorry I just forgot your name when listing everyone

Guys how important are scoreboards to you?.... Asking for a friend

Posted by: Iz~ 28th November 2016, 05:38 PM

We can live without them if you don't have time

Posted by: ʟɪɴᴅsᴇ 28th November 2016, 05:42 PM

I'm on my way back up to Perth atm, my bus to the train was late so I'm getting back an hour later than planned, may just have to do scoreboards every few votes or something

Yea Cameron the turn out was a little disappointing with over a week for voting but I got a decent amount I guess without sending pms, I never had a chance to go around everyone and tbh idk who I would have gone to other than the genre mods so I can't complain really

Posted by: ʟɪɴᴅsᴇ 28th November 2016, 06:14 PM

Okay guys I'm going to have to postpone results coming tonight, my train is stopped and delayed like half an hour from where I need to be, idk when we'll be moving and I've just had an email regarding something I need to do for a big event in my town, I didn't know a thing about it until now and it's urgent so I'll need to do it tonight.

This does mean anyone who wants to vote late can do so and I'll probably get results up around 9pm when I'm home from work tomorrow. I hate postponing things, hopefully y'all don't mind too much

Posted by: Jonjo 28th November 2016, 07:11 PM

GAHHHH! I'll vote now! Completely forgot to do this!

Posted by: dandy* 28th November 2016, 07:53 PM

I'll vote too!

Posted by: ʟɪɴᴅsᴇ 28th November 2016, 09:48 PM

Thanks guys, I'll accept late votes until midnight, I need to get the scoreboards done tonight as I wont have a chance tomorrow :')

Posted by: Jade 28th November 2016, 10:34 PM

Sent in some votes! x

Posted by: ʟɪɴᴅsᴇ 28th November 2016, 11:58 PM

no more pls xox
