Ok kidding, it won’t be anything spectacular tonight but I promise an exciting reveal and a new winner at the end of it all 🤩
Posted by: dandy* Apr 28 2021, 04:22 PM
Looking forward to it!
Posted by: Jade Apr 28 2021, 04:23 PM
Excited! I have absolutely no idea what to expect this time.
Posted by: RobBot Apr 28 2021, 04:27 PM
Definitely an unpredictable one tonight, so I'm excited! Just hoping for a top 20 placing for myself <3

Let me do better than predicted pls x

I have no idea what to expect from all of this - both in terms of winner and what to expect for India Jordan. Before the contest I thought she may do quite well but I think it didn't stand out among a pretty big sounding set of finalists. Could see it finishing almost anywhere so no doubt the results will be a ride
Posted by: Bré Apr 28 2021, 05:42 PM
I've had both 'The Other Black Dog' and 'For You' stuck in my head throughout today, will this be an omen xx
Posted by: Klumzee Apr 28 2021, 05:42 PM
Really excited for this! I'm just hoping it can wrap up soon after 11pm cause work tomorrow but I'm prepared to be WOWed!

idk what to expect but all I can say is the bookies have not learned from their stanning of Jessie Frye not coming to fruition

Looking forward to these. I'm expecting XYZ to receive 0 from 80+% of voters, with hopefully some big scores from the others

i felt confident about my entry when i confirmed until i actually listened to the rest, hoping there's an audience for this mid-table 2015 bop! looking forward to this!

Really excited to see this, I'm so pleased to have taken Unfinished Dream of Sadako to the final, not got my hopes too high but I'm hoping that it can get a somewhat decent result from the niche that it would appeal to.
Have mixed feelings towards the various contenders (as you may find out x), but it certainly seems very open so hope it's a close finish x
Posted by: PeteFromLeeds Apr 28 2021, 06:09 PM
Excitement! Annoyingly won't be around for a good chunk of this but hoping for a good result this time around!
Posted by: diva thin muffin Apr 28 2021, 07:00 PM
So before the results start lets remind ourselves of how tonight works!
First all of the finalists will vote, in order of performance. If you've forgotten what that order is, at the end of this post will be a recap along with links to the videos for each one.
After every 3 voters we'll recap the scoreboard to see who's in the lead and who's trailing. This will be done via scoreboard screenshot because it's easier for me lol.
Once all finalists have voted, we'll reveal the results of the DNQ votes, starting with the country in last place after the finalists have voted and ending with first place.
Well, there's no reason to wait! Let's start off our results reveal right here in Vinorel where we call up our neighbours to the south Thelonia! Thelonia, can we have your votes please?
QUOTE(THELONIA)
18 points: Lynks & Charlie Steen - This Is The Hit (Wholune) 15 points: LUM!X, KSHMR & Gabry Ponte feat. KARRA - Scare Me (Kingdom of Horanius) 13 points: ishi vu - This Is Your Life (FSR Rontvia) 12 points: Bklava - Fired Up (ABSOLUTE. Edit) (#00274E) 11 points: Christina Novelli - Numb (Land of DW) 10 points: poutyface - NEVR f***IN KNOW (New Lexico) 9 points: TDJ feat. fknsyd - Open Air (Kathaldazia) 8 points: Monolink - The Prey (Mind Against Remix) (Arcodesia) 7 points: COBRAH - GOOD PUSS (N DNTN) 6 points: moistbreezy - Breathless (Keeping Me Up All Night) (Hendinia) 5 points: Postiljonen - Atlantis (D'yermak'er) 4 points: Kid Francescoli - Moon (And It Went Like) (Rolloland) 3 points: Fear Of Tigers - I Hope You Know (Aeroche) 2 points: Quadeca - Sisyphus (Persephonia) 1 point: TeZATalks - Panic Attack (Elëdan)
So our first set of votes tonight sends the coveted 18 points right across the bay. Wholune, only just added to the map this week, lies approximately 400 km east of Wholune separated only by the Vinorel sea.

Next we'll head into the country that stretches itself almost all the way from the north edge of Quilvoria to the south: it's Skall! What do you say tonight, Skall?
QUOTE(SKALL)

While Skall and Utopia aren't neighbours per se, just like with Thelonia and Wholune the only thing separating these two is the ocean as Utopia lies about 800 km north of Skall. Neighbor voting starting off strong tonight!

Hey Diva! So I wrestled with my 18 this time around but in the end I decided that REALiTi was by far my favourite track even if I obvs did already know it so our max this month makes its way over to the Republic of Adonia! I really enjoyed everything I've listed below but sadly there could only be room for the top 15 - special mention to Genesis Owusu, TDJ and Boards of Canada who could easily have bagged themselves an 18 on another day in another contest...
18 Republic of Adonia: Grimes - REALiTi (Demo) 15 Jadakissnia: Genesis Owusu - The Other Black Dog 13 Kathaldazia: TDJ - Open Air (feat. fknsyd) 12 Utopia: Boards Of Canada - XYZ 11 FSR Rontvia: ishi vu - This Is Your Life 10 Jupiterdonia: Lissie - Don't You Give Up On Me 09 #00274E: Bklava - Fired Up (ABSOLUTE.

Thanks for all of your excellent hosting throughout the contest. The level of effort has been so immense and the whole thing really has been flawless from beginning to end xx

Thank you for those kind words Dandy & Fljótavík! This time the 18 points (unfortunately for us) don't go to the neighbour nation but instead to another massive water nation in Republic of Adonia who happen to have a lake in an island in a lake which itself is part of the huge Hasbeenalia island. Fun fact!
Posted by: RabbitFurCoat Apr 28 2021, 07:14 PM
Oh Harve
Edit: And Dandy*. Pleasing start
Posted by: diva thin muffin Apr 28 2021, 07:14 PM
So after three votes all but fourteen nations have managed to score at least one point! This is what our scoreboard looks like after Thelonia, Skall & Fljótavík have voted!
FSR Rontvia, despite not having any top scores, is in the lead at the moment with 37 points. Utopia and Adonia, two of the 18-pointers, follow close behind. D'yermaker and Jadakissnia make up the rest of the Top 10. Fourteen nations, including the hosts (</3) are still at zero points but there's more than enough votes to go and the night is young!
Posted by: Jade Apr 28 2021, 07:14 PM
Pesky Grimes!! wow though, thanks so much Dandy really happy that you were into my song so much!
Ooh top 5
Posted by: Klumzee Apr 28 2021, 07:15 PM
A pretty 'indie' set of voters so far! Will be interesting to see how this affects the trajectory of songs as usually it's the pop ones out on top at first.

Posted by: Bré Apr 28 2021, 07:17 PM
Good taste on display thus far x
I really hope that ishi vu can actually be a big hit but I do think it'll probably fall completely flat with the more poppy voters. We'll see though.
Posted by: gooddelta Apr 28 2021, 07:20 PM
Yeah...it's going to be marmite, I'm not expecting to gather more than 15 points in total from the pop voters probably, so it's promising that the early indie voters have turned out in a big way for ishi vu because it needed their support to stand a chance of beating DJ Sabrina.
Also, thanks Dandy* !

Now we're in Terra Avium in Twikande, a nation of interesting shape which helps in blocking off their neighbour Quintessa from the sea! Will they give Quintessa their 18 points as a way of saying sorry?
QUOTE
Good evening all, our votes on this rainy evening come courtesy of our crow representatives, totally not because of a pun opportunity. Thank you very much to our hosts for their beautiful and dedicated hosting. As a reward, here's a picture of our Icelandic representatives, the puffin:
Here are our votes for this final, which was of quite stupendous quality:
18; Utopia: Boards Of Canada – XYZ 15; FSR Rontvia: ishi vu - This Is Your Life 13; Rolloland: Kid Francescoli - Moon (And It Went Like) 12; Bøtanikkä: Polo & Pan – Dorothy 11; Arcodesia: Monolink - The Prey (Mind Against Remix) 10; Kathaldazia: TDJ - Open Air (feat. fknsyd) 09; Quintessa: Marta Sango - ¿Qué Más Quieres De Mí? 08; #00274E: Bklava - Fired Up (ABSOLUTE. Edit) 07; Jadakissnia: Genesis Owusu - The Other Black Dog 06; Fljótavík: India Jordan - For You (Fljótavík Edit) 05; Elëdan: TeZATalks - Panic Attack 04; Persephonia: Quadeca – Sisyphus 03; Ojnoj: Tinashe - Ghetto Boy 02; N DNTN: COBRAH - GOOD PUSS 01; Trifoski: Parov Stelar – Catgroove"
"Very sorry to the following who would've almost certainly got points in most other months:
FARC: Ane Brun - Take Hold Of Me D'yermak'er: Postiljonen - Atlantis Hendinia: moistbreezy - Breathless (Keeping Me Up All Night) Land of DW: Christina Novelli – Numb Republic of Adonia: Grimes - REALiTi (Demo) Thelonia: The Prototypes - Reason (feat. LOWES) Numayania: Max Barskih & Zivert – BESTSELLER Altyr Muunilinst: Erika Vikman – Häpeä Varakë: Mark Diamond – Monster
Thank you once more!
Thank you Terra Avium! It does seem that while they didn't give Quintessa their 18 points, they did give them 9 points instead. Maybe that is compensation enough for landlocking! Their top scorer was Utopia who got their second set of 18 points!

Over to Adonia! They previously received 18 points from Fljótavík. Will they return the favour or go with something a little bit closer to home?

Turns out it's neither! Another set of 18 points for Utopia as they collect their third 18 top score after only five voters Could this be the start of a runaway victory? Adonia do still manage to pay the favour back by giving Fljótavík 9 points and interestingly also 4 points to the only other country from their continent present in the final: Rolloland!
Posted by: Cosmic Cody Apr 28 2021, 07:28 PM
anyway THE MAP ADDITION j'adore

Thank you Math! (It feels weird to have got points from nearly everyone so far (and in the commiserations for the one that I wasn't in) after I went through the entire semi-final stage only being aware of 1 person who particularly liked my song of course not expecting that to keep up).
Utopia really cleaning up with the 18s!

Now to the nation that after a map revamp fittingly looks like a trident! Trifoski's closest neighbour in the final is Scherzland. Does this mean they'll get some points?
QUOTE
+18 Bøtanikkä: Polo & Pan - Dorothy +15 N DNTN: COBRAH - GOOD PUSS +13 Republic of Adonia: Grimes - REALiTi (Demo) +12 Jadakissnia: Genesis Owusu - The Other Black Dog +11 FSR Rontvia: ishi vu - This Is Your Life +10 St. Burbia: Nasty Cherry - Her Body +9 Taahino: chloe moriondo - GIRL ON TV +8 Numayania: Max Barskih & Zivert - BESTSELLER +7 Hendinia: moistbreezy - Breathless (Keeping Me Up All Night) +6 Persephonia: Quadeca - Sisyphus +5 Hushkanukia: KING - Only U +4 D'yermak'er: Postiljonen - Atlantis +3 The Actual Republic of Bellamia: Robin Packalen - Hard To Love (feat. Alex Mattson) +2 Rolloland: Kid Francescoli - Moon (And It Went Like) +1 Fljótavík: India Jordan - For You (Fljótavík Edit)
Scherzland get completely snuffed by their neighbours so it's safe to assume tonight border security may have to be doubled in Trifoski :eyes: Meanwhile, the top score stays on the continent though as Trifoski's 18 points go to Botanikka who are also on the south coast of the continent, just a little further west.
Posted by: gooddelta Apr 28 2021, 07:33 PM
Have all the indie votes been grouped together? I think the entire current top 10 can ready themselves for a major drought later on
Thanks Adonia and Trifoski for keeping the points rolling in <3

Posted by: diva thin muffin Apr 28 2021, 07:40 PM
Still a few countries without points including yours truly but FSR Rontvia stays on top. Utopia, despite having had three 18's so far is still relegated to the runner-up position. N DNTN has picked up some steam since last update and is now third, followed by Jadakissnia in fourth and #00274E in fifth. Quintessa, Thelonia, Taahino, Numayania, Hushkanukia & Bellamia join the party at various places.
Posted by: Jade Apr 28 2021, 07:41 PM

Indeed the neighbour voting continues as Aeroche send their 18 points directly across the water to their closest neighbour N DNTN! Presumably Aerochans are hoping not to have to pay so much for the airfare next contest after they were supposed to only take a 30 minute flight this month before fate intervened. Elsewhere Mosquetania once again is relegated to the bridesmaid slot. Will we ever join the party?

Leww <3 N DNTN could be coming for a second win on the trot, as it has more pop appeal than anything else in the top five currently so will surely keep the momentum up as others fade away.

It's time for Greenfroze now! They don't have any immediate neighbours competing this month but right across the bay sits Hushkanukia. Will Greenfroze send their top score in a ferry across the pond or will it be air freight tonight?

"Thank you so much for an amazing show! You've been a wonderful host
QUINTESSA: Marta Sango - ""¿Qué Más Quieres De Mí?"" - 18

Chestoria: Ylona Garcia - All That - 9 Thelonia: The Prototypes - Reason (feat. LOWES) - 8 D'YERMAK'ER: Postiljonen - ""Atlantis"" – 7
Niceland: Schiller & Alphaville - Summer In Berlin - 6 Jupiterdonia: Lissie - Don't You Give Up On Me - 5 Cor Lupus: Olga Seryabkina - Что Же Ты Наделал - 4

Air freight it is, but keen eyes will notice that Hushkanukia still received the Greenfroze silver medal so it's obvious that all is love in Miskantha. Mosquetanians everywhere cheer in unison as we finally get points and a 12 pointer at that! Thank you Greenfroze!

Eledan is next up. This country is smack dab in the middle of Miskantha, bordered by two finalists: Niceland and New Lexico. They have some tense relations with Persephonia too due to a disputed land claim by the latter right at the border of Eledan so a complex neighbourhood could spell trouble for neighbourhood voting.
QUOTE
18 Terra Avium: Crows In The Rain - Unfinished Dream Of Sadako 15 Cor Lupus: Olga Seryabkina - Что Же Ты Наделал 13 Persephonia: Quadeca - Sisyphus 12 FARC: Ane Brun - Take Hold Of Me 11 Altyr Muunilinst: Erika Vikman - Häpeä
10 Jadakissnia: Genesis Owusu - The Other Black Dog 09 Niceland: Schiller & Alphaville - Summer In Berlin 08 D'yermak'er: Postiljonen - Atlantis 07 N DNTN: COBRAH - GOOD PUSS 06 Mosquetania: Drew Sycamore - 45 Fahrenheit Girl

..and yet 13 points go to Persephonia! It may seem that the nation's view of the East Twikande giant isn't as black and white as it may seem. Terra Avium manage the top score from Eledan, making it their first top score tonight! Mosquetania also manages a few points, much to our joy.

Rontvia stays in the lead despite only getting points from one of the last three voters. N DNTN puts their eyes on a second win in a row as the climb to second while Utopia stays third after getting zero from this lot. D'yermak'er with a full house in this round is in fourth and Jadakissnia stays in the top 5 for a third time. Mosquetania, Altyr, Scherzland, Chestoria, Skall and Greenfroze finally join the party with most of them being lifted off zero points by Greenfroze! <3

Next up is this tiny little island off the coast of Quilvoria. They don't have any immediate neighbours in the final but Botanikka are the closest they've got. Let's see if they send some love across the continent.

While, sure some points here have been shared with fellow Quilvorians - notably 13 points to the Kluminican Republic who are finally off zero, Horanius send their 18 points over to Twikande as well as their 15 points!

I was enjoying the schadenfreude of 'LazyBaby' being on 0 for so long while it lasted but I'm pretty certain it'll mount a big comeback and still end up being at least top 5 (as it were it's got off 0 before Varakë now at least...)

Niceland is next, with plenty of neighbours to vote for including the immediate ones: Eledan, Chestoria and Cor Lupus. Let's see if that's where their votes go tonight.

Thanks!
Thank you Niceland both for the compliments and points! Niceland prove to not give into neighbourhood voting and instead show that they are indeed nice to everybody! Botanikka receive another top score , with Rolloland and Trifoski getting the silver and bronze - none of them on the Miskantha continent with Niceland.

Jupiterdonia is the next one to vote! It's a nation sandwiched between two finalists: Kathaldazia and Numayania so both of these may very well have large diaspora in Jupiterdonia who could affect the vote tonight.
QUOTE
look at me getting these in nice and easy
this was a strong final. I think I'm bucking the trend in going for mostly my opposite semi this time! missing the plug session does that to ya maybe x
had to give top points to an act I know personally (indirectly) though great to see them be sent and clearly well known enough :3
+18 Postiljonen (D'Yermak'Er) +15 Christina Novelli (Land of DW) +13 Zac Tenenbaum (Scherzland) +12 Moistbreezy (Hendinia) +11 Grimes (R Adonia) +10 TDJ (Kathaldazia) +9 The Prototypes (Thelonia) +8 Lumix + Kshmr (Kingdom of Horanius) +7 Cobrah (N DNTN) +6 Zolita (Greenfroze) +5 Monolink (Arcodesia) +4 Polo + Pan (Botanikka) +3 King (Hushkanukia) +2 Niki + the Dove (Skall) +1 Robin Packalen (Bellamia)
Well, not quite what could have been expected. Kathaldazia manages to get a decent score here but Numayania is completely snubbed. D'yermak'er get the coveted 18 points for the second time since the last scoreboard update!

While FARC isn't exactly Ojnoj's neighbour they are the next finalist country if you draw a straight line to the east from Ojnoj so somewhat neighbourly.

From Ojnoj to the country that got their top spot it's time for FARC's votes! Most of their neighbours failed to qualify, including Cumulonimbia who own that strange enclave inside FARC, so their closest neighbours would be Skall if they were to vote by borderlines.

D'yermak'er is the first country to three digits thanks to another set of 18 points as well as 3 points from FARC. FARC themselves join N DNTN in the top 3 after getting some big scores this round! Rontvia stays top 5 but another three voters pay them dust as they fall further from the top spot they kept for so long at first. Bellamia makes a huge leap into the top 5 too, thanks to big scores from all three countries!

And now, your hosts! Of course we would never dabble in the laviscious sin of neighbourhood voting but if we did we'd have plenty to choose from with Fljótavík, Thelonia, Land of DW, Wholune and Rontvia all in close proximity. But I promise if we give any of them high scores it's only a coincidence!

Thankfully, we manage to prove that neighbourhood voting isn't our forté but Thelonia still manage to sneak in 6 points as our closest neighbour. Things will be awkward at the border tomorrow though as Thelonians paid us dust in their voting. Bellamia though get another top score in a row! Could they be running away with the crown at this point?

Hushkanukia are next up, with two immediate neighbours in this final in Greenfroze and Chestoria. Greenfroze famously send their silver medal right across the pond so potentially Hushkanukia could return the favour right here, right now.
Almost. 12 points across the bay and 4 points to Chestoria, Hushkanukia manage a full house of neighbour voting! Their top choice may seem somewhat inspired though, but in fact Hushkanukia and Ojnoj are only really separated by the sea as well as the People's Republic of Jester which juts out in between them but assuming that some diaspora has managed to travel the distance isn't too far fetched!

Thank you so much Jafet! I noticed you playing my song on Spotify the other day so I had a good feeling, sorry if that’s creepy
Getting big points or nothing then... hmmm
Ohh didn't know you were following me on Spotify but nah I don't consider that creepy Yeah I quite like it!

New Lexico are next up! Let's see how their votes go!
Another set of 18 points to Bellamia! The third set of 18 pts out of the last four voters! Mosquetania also happy to be there! Not a neighbourly vote in sight as Eledan and Persephonia (who claim land in New Lexico) are both completely snubbed from the ballot!
Posted by: coi Apr 28 2021, 08:51 PM
Plummeting down the leaderboard as our drought is in full swing now, 0 points from 6 (edit: 7) votes and still going, any points would be great at this stage!

Now over to Rolloland, one of only two countries competing tonight in Hasbeenalia.
QUOTE
Good evening, Prosperity calling. We would like to thank Mosquetania for their phenomenal, highly skilled hosting of this contest. The Rolloland jury were impressed with the high standard of songs entered this month and could find no room in their top 15 for Cor Lupus, Fljotavik, Varake or Numayania. Here is their vote:
1pt to Trifoski - Parov Stelar - Catgroove 2pts to Utopia - Boards Of Canada - XYZ 3pts to Jupiterdonia - Lissie - Don't You Give Up On Me 4pts to Persephonia - Quadeca - Sisyphus 5pts to Quintessa - Marta Sango - ¿Qué Más Quieres De Mí? 6pts to Botanikka - Polo & Pan - Dorothy 7pts to Taahino - Chloe Moriondo - Girl On TV 8pts to Niceland - Schiller & Alphaville - Summer In Berlin 9pts to Land of DW - Christina Novelli - Numb 10pts to Kathaldazia - TDJ featuring Fknsyd - Open Air 11pts to Terra Avium - Crows In The Rain - Unfinished Dream of Sadako 12pts to D'yermak'er - Postiljonen - Atlantis
13pts to Arcodesia - Monolink - The Prey (Mind Against Remix)
15pts to FSR Rontvia - Ishi Vu - This Is Your Life
And our 18 points go to FARC - Ane Brun - Take Hold Of Me
Thank you for the kind words King Rollo! FARC manage their second 18 pointer of the night, the first since Ojnoj, a few votes ago. As Adonia is the only country competing sharing a continent with Rolloland, zero points for them means no neighbourhood voting here!

Yay for ishi vu finally getting some more points as well - apart from one 5 pointer they've so far only got double figure points or nothing, which seems about right.

Chestoria is one of the most recent additions to the map which gained them three neighbours in the final: Niceland, Hushkanukia & Greenfroze. Did any of those get points here?

Hi
Here are the votes from Chestoria
18 Kluminican Republic: Dove Cameron - LazyBaby 15 Republic of Adonia: Grimes - REALiTi (Demo) 13 St. Burbia: Nasty Cherry - Her Body 12 Hushkanukia: KING - Only U 11 Jadakissnia: Genesis Owusu - The Other Black Dog 10 Ojnoj: Tinashe - Ghetto Boy 09 Skall: Niki & The Dove - So Much It Hurts 08 Greenfroze: Zolita - Truth Tea 07 Thelonia: The Prototypes - Reason (feat.

Both Hushkanukia & Greenfroze manage points while Niceland got snubbed. Kluminican Republic's late jump from zero gets avenged here though as they get the top score from Chestoria tonight! Not such a lazy baby after all! Mosquetania says thanks to Chestoria for the 4 points ! <3

Hej Buzzjack World, this is Andreas Lundstedt from Alcazar, Numayania's first ever entrant and first ever winner, so you know what time it is Best of luck tonight to Max Barskih & ZIVERT, it's great to see the classic Numayanian electropop sound back. But what sounds have we enjoyed the most this month? It's time to find out! Here is the combined Numayanian jury and televote.
Let's start with points 1-12:
12 Quintessa: Marta Sango - ¿Qué Más Quieres De Mí? 11 Skall: Niki & The Dove - So Much It Hurts 10 Cor Lupus: Olga Seryabkina - Что Же Ты Наделал 9 The Actual Republic of Bellamia: Robin Packalen - Hard To Love (feat. Alex Mattson) 8 Chestoria: Ylona Garcia - All That 7 Bøtanikkä: Polo & Pan - Dorothy 6 Niceland: Schiller & Alphaville - Summer In Berlin 5 FSR Rontvia: ishi vu - This Is Your Life 4 Persephonia: Quadeca - Sisyphus 3 Arcodesia: Monolink - The Prey (Mind Against Remix) 2 New Lexico: poutyface - NEVER f***IN KNOW 1 Republic of Adonia: Grimes - REALiTi (Demo)
So who is getting our big three?
Well our 13 goes to a country who we don't believe ever made our podium before, but we love funky electro songs that do what they say on the tin, and let me tell you this has been SMASHING in Numayania. Trieze points sont attribuées à:
13 Wholune: Lynks & Charlie Steen - This Is The Hit
And who is close, but no cigar? She's a diva, she's a bear advocate and her Cicciolina was one of the biggest hits of 20202 in Numayania. She's had mixed fortunes in BJSC so far, but could third time be the charm? I hope she'll be happier at least Quinze points sont attribuées à: 15 Altyr Muunilinst: Erika Vikman - Häpeä
And who is our number one this time? As you know electropop and scandipop are very dear to our hearts, and we just can't get enough of a song that builds and builds, or this country lately! Let's just say we can't stop playing this! Quinze points et nos felicitations sont attribuées à:
18 FARC: Ane Brun - Take Hold Of Me
Apologies in no particular order to Kluminican Republic, Land of DW, Mosquetania and Thelonia.
Thank you for a great show Mosquetania, and to all fans and Numayanians across the world, sanque-tes --- 18-1 table for ease of copying:
18 FARC: Ane Brun - Take Hold Of Me 15 Altyr Muunilinst: Erika Vikman - Häpeä 13 Wholune: Lynks & Charlie Steen - This Is The Hit 12 Quintessa: Marta Sango - ¿Qué Más Quieres De Mí? 11 Skall: Niki & The Dove - So Much It Hurts 10 Cor Lupus: Olga Seryabkina - Что Же Ты Наделал 9 The Actual Republic of Bellamia: Robin Packalen - Hard To Love (feat. Alex Mattson) 8 Chestoria: Ylona Garcia - All That 7 Bøtanikkä: Polo & Pan - Dorothy 6 Niceland: Schiller & Alphaville - Summer In Berlin 5 FSR Rontvia: ishi vu - This Is Your Life 4 Persephonia: Quadeca - Sisyphus 3 Arcodesia: Monolink - The Prey (Mind Against Remix) 2 New Lexico: poutyface - NEVER f***IN KNOW 1 Republic of Adonia: Grimes - REALiTi (Demo)

Hi everyone,
Good evening, here are this months votes from Utopia at this fantastic contest. It's the easiest award of 18 points for a while with ishi vu of FSR Rontvia being the significant standout song of the contest. It's joined at the top by Botanikka and D'Yermak'er , all three appearing in the top 3 of our votes for the first time in a while. Also near the top, Kathaldazia and Rolloland continue runs of brilliant entries with regular recipients of points Terra Avium and Jadakissnia returning to the top 6 after missing out altogether recently. Other points of note, Arcodesia continue a 100% record with this the lowest scoring of 7 entries, and FARC, Hendinia and Ojnoj get their first Utopian points for a while, whilst St. Burbia beat New Lexico in the battle between countries we never seem to give points for the final points placing.
18 FSR Rontvia - ishi vu 15 Botanikka - Polo & Pan 13 D'Yermak'er - Postiljonen 12 Kathaldazia - TDJ 11 Terra Avium - Crows In The Rain 10 Jadakissnia - Genesis Owusu 09 FARC - Ane Brun 08 Rolloland - Kid Francescoli 07 Arcodesia - Monolink 06 Hendinia - moistbreezy 05 Ojnoj - Tinashe 04 Republic of Adonia - Grimes 03 Niceland - Schiller & Alphaville 02 Fljotavik - India Jordan 01 St. Burbia - Nasty Cherry
Ooh yay, very pleased to be back in the Utopian points thanks RFC! Almost an exact points swap ;o

Good evening, we'd like to thank Mosquetania for their wonderful hospitality and running an excellent show this month and we're very happy to be a part of this final. Here are the final votes from Persephonia ~
It was a tough choice to order our top 3 this month, all feeling very worthy of the full 18 points but alas there can only be one. As it were the top 2 ended up being between two nations who have already had one 18 from us this year - it is Rolloland who manage to pull off the feat again in the end with their wistful electronic track which gives them a second 18 in the span of three contests after CLANN took the gold in BJSC 132, while Terra Avium settle for 15 with their post-rock epic (as always, a cheat code to high points from us) after getting the full 18 with Varien in BJSC 131. This is the 4th time in total we've given our gold to Rolloland (while they have received our silver and bronze 2 times each), and Terra Avium's medal tally is boosted to 5 golds, 8 silvers and 3 bronzes. Completing the runaway top 3 with 13 points is FSR Rontvia with a sample-laden underground rave style track which marks their first appearance in our top 3 since they also got 13 for another entry in a similar style, DJ Sabrina The Teenage DJ in BJSC 113; their last better result from us was a full 18 to Tina Guo in BJSC 93 and their medal tally from us now stands at 3 golds, 1 silver and 5 bronzes. Falling short of top 3 but nonetheless serving a couple more excellent songs which could easily have also been medal contenders in another contest, 12 points go to the earwormy and kooky rap offering from Jadakissnia and 11 go to a punchy slice of Russian electropop from Cor Lupus, marking our highest points to the latter since our 13 points to Aesthetic Perfection in BJSC 99 and only the third time Cor Lupus have got double figure pointage from us in all.
Utopia's glitchy electronic track from the archives lands 10 points, the rather fabulous electronic/rock crossover from Wholune gets 9 points and we hope it lives up to its title (also aside, only just discovered that Charlie Steen is the singer from shame, that's kind of cool x), #00274E's rave banger gets 8 points as we celebrate their proper comeback after last month's buzz entry (their last appearance in our votes being 15 points to Rival Consoles in BJSC 107), and the dance/electronic domination continues to round out the rest of the top 10 with 7 points to the rather hypnotising offering from Fljótavík and 6 points to Kathaldazia who continue to serve consistent quality since their comeback.
Continuing our contractual obligation to vote for all long songs, 5 points go to yet another dance offering from Arcodesia for their first points from us since their comeback (last appearing in our votes when My Nu Leng also got 5 points in BJSC 121). Elëdan's 100th entry outdoes all of the actual anniversary entries for us as their short but sweet (but short xx) banger picks up 4 points. Potential win contenders FARC get 3 points for a good serving of Scandi synthpop, our second time voting for FARC this year (!!1) and their highest points from us since 6 points to Rein in BJSC 112. One of the anniversary entries does end up sneaking in, Republic of Adonia managing to get 2 points (which were quite hard fought as this turned out to be one of the bigger growers of the month for me, I'm a little lukewarm compared to the hype on some of Grimes' earlier material and initially thought this might have been the same!) and finally the mealworm point goes to auto-qualifiers N DNTN who don't replicate the 18 points from last month but still delivered another tune why didn't you send 'DIP N DRIP' though.
TL;DR:
18 Rolloland // Kid Francescoli - Moon 15 Terra Avium // Crows In The Rain - Unfinished Dream Of Sadako 13 FSR Rontvia // ishi vu - This Is Your Life
12 Jadakissnia // Genesis Owusu - The Other Black Dog 11 Cor Lupus // Olga Seryabkina - Chto Zhe Ty Nadelal 10 Utopia // Boards Of Canada - XYZ 9 Wholune // Lynks and Charlie Steen - This Is The Hit 8 #00274E // Bklava - Fired Up (ABSOLUTE. Edit) 7 Fljótavík // India Jordan - For You 6 Kathaldazia // TDJ - Open Air (feat. fknsyd) 5 Arcodesia // Monolink - The Prey (Mind Against Remix) 4 Elëdan // TeZATalks - Panic Attack 3 FARC // Ane Brun - Take Hold Of Me 2 Republic of Adonia // Grimes - REALiTi (Demo) 1 N DNTN // COBRAH - GOOD PUSS
Our commiserations this month:
16th Quintessa // Marta Sango - ¿Qué Más Quieres De Mí? 17th Land of DW // Christina Novelli - Numb 18th Hendinia // moistbreezy - Breathless (Keeping Me Up All Night)
Then like the next ~9 songs after that could be a lower tier of commiseration with not a lot separating them so I'll keep it brief and exclusive x
and nothing to Iz (but he should have qualified for the memes and because it was actually a banger let's not lie)
Thanks for the compliments Bré! <3

Good evening Mosquetania, this is Ricardo Delta calling with the results of this month's Rontvian televote. We must thank you for possibly the best hosting effort we have ever seen. This was another fantastic, high quality final and we once again struggled to choose just 15 songs to vote for. We lost a few great songs in the semis but particularly wanted to pay tribute to Flynnonda, which was our 12 in the semi and a fantastic discovery. We could also commiserate about 10 entries in the final but are going to give just the three, to Trifoski, Niceland and Hendinia, which closely finished behind our 1 pointer.
Now without further ado, here are our votes:
18 Points: QUINTESSA: Marta Sango - ""¿Qué Más Quieres De Mí?"" 15 Points: THELONIA: The Prototypes - ""Reason (feat. LOWES)"" 13 Points: KINGDOM OF HORANIUS: LUM!X, KSHMR & Gabry Ponte - ""Scare Me (feat. KARRA)"" 12 Points: GREENFROZE: Zolita - ""Truth Tea"" 11 Points: ALTYR MUUNILINST: Erika Vikman - ""Häpeä"" 10 Points: ROLLOLAND: Kid Francescoli - ""Moon (And It Went Like)"" 9 Points: NEW LEXICO: poutyface - ""NEVER f***IN KNOW"" 8 Points: #00274E: Bklava - ""Fired Up (ABSOLUTE. Edit)” 7 Points: THE ACTUAL REPUBLIC OF BELLAMIA: Robin Packalen - ""Hard To Love (feat. Alex Mattson)” 6 Points: FLJÓTAVÍK: India Jordan - ""For You (Fljótavík Edit)"" 5 Points: MOSQUETANIA: Drew Sycamore - ""45 Fahrenheit Girl"" 4 Points: COR LUPUS: Olga Seryabkina - ""Что Же Ты Наделал"" 3 Points: FARC: Ane Brun - ""Take Hold Of Me"" 2 Points: BØTANIKKÄ: Polo & Pan - ""Dorothy"" 1 Point: NUMAYANIA: Max Barskih & Zivert - ""BESTSELLER""
This concludes the Rontvian voting. Thank you and goodnight!
Aww thank you so much for the sweet words GD and also for the points <33

Good evening, Arcodesia calling! Firstly we would like to thank everyone who voted for Monolink, and secondly we want to say there were so many songs we really enjoyed from this contest! As we've been placed at the very end of the running order, it's an honour to be providing the last individual vote reveal tonight before the semi-finalists' votes are revealed together. With that said, here are Arcodesia's votes for the BJSC 134 final:
+18 Land of DW | Christina Novelli - Numb +15 Trifoski | Parov Stelar - Catgroove +13 Terra Avium | Crows In The Rain - Unfinished Dream Of Sadako +12 D'yermak'er | Postiljonen - Atlantis +11 #00274E | Bklava - Fired Up (ABSOLUTE. Edit) +10 Persephonia | Quadeca - Sisyphus +9 Fljótavík | India Jordan - For You (Fljótavík Edit) +8 FSR Rontvia | ishi vu - This Is Your Life +7 Kathaldazia | TDJ - Open Air (feat. fknsyd) +6 Rolloland | Kid Francescoli - Moon (And It Went Like) +5 FARC | Ane Brun - Take Hold Of Me +4 Jadakissnia | Genesis Owusu - The Other Black Dog +3 Quintessa | Marta Sango - ¿Qué Más Quieres De Mí? +2 Niceland | Schiller & Alphaville - Summer In Berlin +1 Varakë | Mark Diamond - Monster
Commiserations to Cor Lupus and Republic of Adonia especially, but of course there were loads more we would have been happy to vote for.
Good luck to all nations as we prepare for the dramatic televote reveal!

I'll happily take that, you are another person who I wouldn't really have expected to be a fan this month anyway (although I feel like I can say that for most people with this song haha).
I forget if I posted this on BuzzJack already so apologies if I'm repeating myself but I'm glad you sent 'XYZ' as it's one of those songs that slightly went over my head the first time I listened to it but it's clicked a lot more hearing it again for the contest.

That's a pretty good score to be on going into the jury vote so I can hang on to midtable, providing I don't bomb ofc., who knows with the jury
Will have to follow the rest from my phone as I need to go to bed, willing on FARC to win out of the contenders! (Though FARC vs Bellamia again! It's like my contest again )

The fact there's only 30 points between 11th and 30th is pretty daunting!
Posted by: Bré Apr 28 2021, 10:11 PM
Just taken this moment to compare the scoreboard I have so far for yours for posterity - it is all matching (well Greenfroze are on 117 rather than 137 but I assume that is just a typo in your scoreboard that you just posted since they are in the right place)
Wonderful to see ishi vu still as high as 4th at this stage & Kathaldazia still in the top 5 too <3 I'd be cool with any of the current top 5 winning really.

Oops it's indeed a typo. I was testing if the formula I was using was working and forgot to change it back it's not a spoiler for Greenfroze's final score either btw. Just a random number I wrote It should indeed be 117!

'Her Body' actually grew on me a lot with my last relisten - still ended up just outside my commiserations as well but that was an improvement from originally being around 30th!

Posted by: coi Apr 28 2021, 11:37 PM
If I've got this right I think we're going to finish marginally higher than last contest, wouldn't have predicted that! Gotta love that mid-table consistency throughout the night too

GAH! Good climb for Adonia there, glad it's not won because it's quite uninspired BUT it'll manage a top 5/10 placing which feels fair!
Posted by: Bré Apr 28 2021, 11:40 PM
Yeah I am fast running out of opportunities to come any higher than 25th xx
(but wouldn't it be hilarious if 'LazyBaby' only got 43 points (fully expecting it to get at least double that))

That's ended up quite a bit short of the win some were predicting!

the way it would've been an 18 like any other tournament this year but I was not docking my cheap faves (aka Grimes & Tinashe)

i haven't been 18th in a LONG time so I will count that as a unique position x The closest is 15th which is unreachable unfortunately but Top 20 is fab and I was DEAD LAST at some point during the voting so it's a HUGE win
Posted by: King Rollo Apr 28 2021, 11:53 PM
I'm happy with 92 points from the jury. I think that gives me a worst position of 11th. Thanks to the four countries there who put Moon in their top 3 and all the others.
Posted by: RobBot Apr 28 2021, 11:54 PM
Oh wow, King has definitely exceeded my expectations but a really good entry so I'm happy to see it!

I think everything now will get around 80-120, I don't see anyone other than Bellamia making up that gap from FARC, but I don't think that'll be enough.

That confirms a 22nd place finish for us then, one place (and one point!) higher than Best of Me last contest so very pleased with that result
Also there's a pretty good chance I'll have given points to the winner here, I voted for three of the four winning contenders so yay!
Posted by: diva thin muffin Apr 29 2021, 12:04 AM
So it's now clear one out of D'yermak'er, FARC, FSR Rontvia and The Actual Republic of Bellamia will win. But who takes the cake?
Posted by: Jade Apr 29 2021, 12:05 AM
Just realised that 15th has been confirmed for me for a lil while now and that's a unique position I only needed 11th and 15th from the 11-20 zone !

Yass! Definitely not going to be a winning score but so happy to breach the 300 mark!
Huge thanks to all the voters, especially two more 18s from Doctor Blind and Rob!

Bellamia and FARC in the Top 2. I have seen that before :')
Posted by: Bré Apr 29 2021, 12:06 AM
Top 5 for ishi vu thinking these last 3 should all do well enough to remain as the top 3 overall but 4th will still be great for that.
Have a gut feeling that D'yermak'er are about to snatch x

Well done Haus, not far out of my votes. Bellamia was highest in my vote so I’m rooting for that now but I suspect FARC will live up to the odds, and it did make my votes too.

will i just go out on a complete nonsensical limb and say that farc will get 390-400 points?
Posted by: diva thin muffin Apr 29 2021, 12:13 AM
I can reveal that there's 188 points left in the pot.
This means that no matter what happens, D'yermak'er is not the winner.
FARC needs to snatch 68 of those points to beat D'yermak'er and 82 points to beat Bellamia. Bellamia needs to get 93 points to beat D'yermak'er and 107 points to beat Bellamia.
