IGNORE!
Is this working or not? When I click on it is linking to my form but I have submissions so I presume it is?
Confirmed properly! Nice little April fools Sam!
Also hope you like the banners!
The original April Fools was the double bluffing of 11am and it was meant to go up then but usual me f***ed up and ran behind!!!! So that's why we posted that other thread for another April Fools *.*
Confirmed!
(It's working ~ at least it I think so)
confirmed~
Confirmed.
WE ALREADY HAVE A DOUBLE CONFIRMATION!!!!!!!!!!
What do I do, message the person who got their later saying someone else got their first?
OMG is it me?
someone got my song didn't they <____<
Confirmed
yes UV u can deal with double confs and let them know!
Confirmed
Confirmed
the last question got me, I take it you just post a link of an emoji.
sent a summer jam that y'all are gonna love!
confirmed early for once
only just found the song in the last 10 mins too so may change but it's a low-key banga
Oh I thought it meant a Buzzjack emoji.
The three people with the triple confirmation are all using a different emoji for it Must be a multifaceted song.
I've confirmed. I don't know emoji speak to properly edit it in but I have one in mind.
I was the third confirmation, I thought I'd risk trying it but thought I'd be too late bc missed the opening :') the artist in question is a feminist icon *.* but this means my german ballad banger has been confirmed instead!!
I really hope tho that the song 3 people tried to confirm already will be a veto in the end...
A triple confirmation?! Intrigued to see what that song was... Bhangra has confirmed anyway!
Didn't quite get up early enough to make this thread straight away but I'd be very surprised if anyone else had my song.
Confirmed!
I tried to be here for 11 but I'm physically incapable of being up that early on a Saturday. Nice fool tho m7
CONFIRMED. Hype hype hype
Confirmed - Gone alternative this time!
République d'Ashton has confirmed
Deviated slightly from what was our original plan for 94.
Confirmed, I hope no one else is using my emoji~
Flynnonda have confirmed, to think I thought the early confirmation time was a April fools joke
I hope I managed to get the right emoji link to you Sam, confirmed anyway. Deciding to have a rest from our exploration of genres this month
So this isn't April Fool's?
Confirmed, I have a pop banger.
Why is there no lighter emoji I can't
I bet my song is already taken
I did say I refused to stay up until 3AM to confirm but an hour later does not help matters AT ALL
Confirmed I be.
My song has a sample from a pretty famous song so if I've understood the veto rules right that should be 10 veto points and I don't think it's got any more than that so it should be okay.
Oh and I am going v ~~~~u r b a n~~~~ this contest!
I'm one of the big urban lurvahs in thos contest tbh!
At a risk of pulling a Lotti, I've just made my third confirmation ~
Judging by the fact i received no pm i guess my song wasn't confirmed by anyone else. Yassss it's already my song of the year and it better not get vetoed
There have been no double confirmations bar the triple one from earlier.
Up to 33 countries already, keep entering guys!
I hope someone's playing an April fool with one of these entries
The great nation of Alteria is making its glorious return after 9 months outside the contest. Ready for that mid-table semi-final performance as usual.
Aesthetica has confirmed! May switch it out later on, although I'm fairly confident in the song I sent in just now~ #HelloDanceBloc
Settled on something I adore, think it might be risky but hopefully not.
remember that time i used rick astley as my audio link and nobody noticed until voting was up
Already over 40 entries, continue entering guys!
Confirmed!

I think this should be on course to be the biggest contest of the year what with the lack of bans. Hopefully most of that list should be entering plus a forthcoming debut from Rolloland and likely(?) returns for N DNTN, Republic of Adonia, Greenfroze, maybe a few others too (as well as the 3 comebacks that have confirmed already). *.*
(Sam we should harass cqmerqn to join in Democats forum xx)
Reconfirmed, re-discovered a song and suddenly that "hit" feeling I last felt from an entry of mine with Ali Barter *comes 27th in semi instead*
(this isn't musically like that though, huge indie tinged electo-pop anthem instead *.*)
reconfirmed...i hope no one else got it
Have reconfirmed! A first for us but found something yesterday even better than our original choice.
Confirmed some Euro classical/trance extravaganza.
We have an auto-veto, as the track has already been sent before.
Lorn - Acid Rain 25
-ALREADY BEEN SENT! 25
'Acid Rain' is AMAZING but silly billy x
i've confirmed a bagpipe banger from someone who cruelly DNQ'ed twice by two places for two of my fave bjsc nations, hoping to serve some justice *.*
Alice - Running With Lions 18+
03 \\ Artist has previously been entered to the Buzzjack Song Contest
03 \\ In the last 24 months, the song has charted in the official chart of: Australia, Canada, Denmark, France, Japan, Germany, New Zealand, Norway, South Korea & Sweden
12 \\ Song has received substantial radio, internet, TV, or print media exposure
BOOOOOOOOOO
A flop melfest song gets vetoed but the favourite to win Finlands NF with online hyped doesn't? :') Back to the drawing board
I love Acid Rain, it's good that it got a mention again
+ yay for xxxxx, the bagpipe reject was a lot better than the actual entry
It's like comparing the Dacia Duster and a Lamborghini Aventador. Just coz the £9,995 SUV has been well received by the press doesn't mean it's in a league with a £250k hypercar.
Cameron, I think you dodged a bullet there. Melfest brings expectations with it (not that those expectations are ever going to be met in the contest as it's just too big a thing here but it's like if someone sees an artist name they recognise and are disappointed by what they hear, see Truls last contest) and that one wasn't even especially well received so I think it'd have been very borderline even if it was let through.
You can support Alice when her heat arrives in Buzzfestivalen in the Eurovision forum in a few weeks!
And if anybody else is itching for songs that didn't quite make it to Eurovision and also haven't been whored out by Ryan here, check out our http://www.buzzjack.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=199047, including BJSC darling Kerli, X Factor flop Sada Vidoo and Alex Range's favourite Lithuanian drag queen!
#JusticeForAlice
My three month probation is over so Rolloland has confirmed.
Truls was in melfest?!
Recycling. Recycling hard.
Zanmatony confirmed.

I hope Espen confirms and slays us once again!!!
Confirmed, with a great song I found from danG's favourite dance subgenre of progressive house (courting that South Danaelandan vote )
oops better find something new to send (enough oldies from me) asap
Two more vetoed coming soon oops!
I somehow feel like I have the biggest chance of getting vetoed
Lizzo - Scuse Me 22
10 \\ Song was confirmed by 3 or 4 people
12 \\ Song has received substantial radio, internet, TV, or print media exposure
("Featured on pitchfork, diymag, idolator, soulbounce, kodemag, npr, thefader, xxlmag, punchland, rehabonlinemag, nylon, portlandmercury, afropunk, spin, fuse, msn" are the examples given by Yu, whether people view that as 'substantial' or 'moderate' it would work out as 17+ points)
RAY BLK - Chill Out 12
-Buzzjack thread with 3 responses
-BBC Sound of 2017 winner
12 \\ Song has received substantial radio, internet, TV, or print media exposure
("Featured on vogue, sbtv, cozymag, hungertv, purplesneakers, thefourohfive, gaytimes, standard, hillydilly, nationofbillions, thefader, clashmusic, mtvuk, contentdope, ventsmagazine, guestlist, thesinglesjukebox, thevandallist, rehabonlinemag, okayafrica, rollingstone, attitude, pressplayok, nylon, aaronlee, josepvinaixa, theguardian, mixmag, notionmagazine, stereoboard, famemagazine, irishtimes, gigwise, afropunk and more" are the examples given by Yu)
What even are 90% of those blogs lmaoooo
Examples? Look more like the first 20 pages of Google to me.
Google is one of the source for online hype from us. I mean if your entry has been featured in THAT many websites, it's never a good sign.
The song must have exposure somewhere, on blogs / sites that people do visit, if three people tried to go for it ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ (which is what swung it, I wouldn't have voted against it on blogs alone)
Poor Lizzo
I'm not in the opening post, has my entry been received?
No way Lizzo would have gone on blogs alone. Not enough big names to justify it. However the triple confirmation. That killed it dead.
Confirmed my next dnq
Couldnt copy and paste the emoji due to my incompetence and my phone being a bit touch and go. I'll try and do it in a couple of days. Just left a description for now.
How many confirmations is that now then?
has anyone ever put together a 'now that's what call...VETO!' playlist? it'd make an interesting listen i'm sure
🐩
I'm still pissed about Tremble tbh
this is my first "old" entry, and the act is one of my favorite old discoveries in literally years; the album my entry is from is currently in heavy rotation and i have already fallen deeply in love with it
Reconfirmed as the dance track I had submitted I wasn't fully into. Pretty happy with what I've gone with now and it's hard to describe genre-wise but I suppose it's more electronic/indie than anything else.
I just wish the full single version was the video version as the intro is so much better!
gone with one that has popped into a couple or 3 or so buzzjack charts outside mine. If I've miscounted, I have 2 spares...
Just over 2 days left to confirm! Will update opening post now!

Medhelnia should be on that list as well based on the OP!
(I see Mezidinia making a quiet return after over 2 years nu Palmyra x)
well there goes the opportunity for Danaelanda to invade the Mezidinian land due to their inactivity
welcome back tho! interested to see what new direction you're going in!
Sabrina Washington - Omg was a mega bop
Confirmed!
2 more vetoes on their way
wtf is going on this month!!!
Kehlani - Undercover 32
03 \\ Artist has previously been entered to the Buzzjack Song Contest
07 \\ Artist has had a UK Top 40 album within past 18 months
10 \\ Song contains a sample of a well known song (Akon "Don't Matter" which in turn samples "Zimbabwe" by Bob Marley)
12 \\ Song has received substantial radio, internet, TV, or print media exposure
(Featured on pitchfork, billboard, stereogum, thefader, hillydilly, spin, complex, indieshuffle, nylon, vibe, rapdar, edmtunes, idolator, josepvinaixa, thissongslaps, rnbmagazine (twice), thefourohfive and a lot more)
This veto below I think was decided before the country who had sent this had changed their entry as this isn't on the spreadsheet anymore!
Nimmo - Dancing Makes Us Brave 22
03 \\ Artist has previously been entered to the Buzzjack Song Contest
07 \\ Artist has come top 15 in any final
12 \\ Song has received substantial radio, internet, TV, or print media exposure
(Featured on promonews, thefader, thelineofbestfit, diymag, josepvinaixa, bbc, theguardian, popjustice, mtvuk, pressplayok, stereoboard, independent, clashmusic and more)
+ song featured in the personal charts of at least six BJSC participants and spent eight weeks in the Multichart (peaking within the top 40)
Seems last month was just a fluke then for having barely any vetoes, quite a few already this month.
I love that Nimmo song but it would be ridiculous if that got in.
'Dancing Makes Us Brave' is an amazing song but I totally agree with that veto. It just won the PFSC as well so I suspect someone may have tried it due to that
Lmao who tried Kehlani :') Undercover is so good tho <3
Undercover was me lol, that's the veto cherry popped though so I guess that's something. Real talk I'd been going ever so slightly off that song since I confirmed it so this is as good an excuse as any to go with something else I guess!
Confirmed: The Re-Up
Why aren't I on the watchlist? Do I not count as a country anymore
But yeah, confirmed a track which MIGHT get vetoed - it's FIRMLY in the dancebloc for the third month in a row and I can see Dan probably being a big fan of it.
well I'm intrigued then.
Usfland will be changing their name to East Rukahavian.
What happened to the rest of 'Rukahavian'?? Did we have another Danaelanda-style civil war? x
Either that, it got annexed by a greater power (as with East Timor) or it sank into the sea. The choice is yours, Mack.
my entry would've been perfect for the 80s spinoff but i didn't know that was a thing lol and either way i'm glad i'm entering it for the main contest. it's my fav entry i've ever sent
If there was no civil war then where is West Rukahavian?
There's no Sudrhein-Ostfalen to go with Nordrhein-Westfalen.
Or a New North Wales
Reconfirmed, still hate u lotti
60 confirmations in! More please!
Continue confirming guys, just 7 hours left to con from!
Omg looks like my song has passed the veto?
I don't think I will qualify with my entry, but I really like it anyway. Also it is the newest of my entries (apart from the original entries), released on 13th March 2017 and I found it on Beatport.
That wasn't sufficient levels of disgust and frustration in that response tho'
I'm pretty sure that was meant to be joke?
you gotta commit tho
Confirmed at last.
So just to confirm when you switch your entry do the Mod team get a new notification? Some months it seems you can edit the Google doc whilst others a new blank form is generated. Just don't want the Semis to go up with my original entry there
Ah ok thanks! Looking forward to this contest commencing.
Just deandria and desbuanda
Now at 67 entries
Presuming Desbuanda will enter / Deandria not in which case Espen will AQ yay
I think we might be without Desbuanda this time, I spoke to Noah when we were harassing encouraging people to join Teams and it sounded like he had literally no spare time at the moment. D:
edit: that said he was online less than half an hour ago #stalker so I'd happily be proven wrong about that. x
edit2: I was wrong! Hooray. *.*
It's a shame we don't seem to have got N DNTN back this month. </3
Noah just entered!
Up to 68!
Hoping to get a pretty compatible semi this month
i'll be back sooooon i promise
Another veto!!
I've been informed that the Olivia Holt track is now in the Global top 100 on Spotify, thus making it an automatic veto!
Before this, it had picked up 7 points for charting in Sweden.
Reconfirmed x
Reconfirmed (had to edit my old form)
this was the final confirmation!
Zella Day - Hypnotic 24
- #08 in BJSC 65 (7), DNQ'ed in BJSC 67 (two within 30 contests 5)
- Billboard Magazine, Spin, discobelle, Nylon magazine, Earmilk, Idolator, Vogue, josepvinaixa all for high profile articles, many other lesser blogs both for this and the Vanic version [12]
- Performed on Late Night With Seth Meyers (major television exposure!)
how many times is that song gonna get vetoed before people realize anything involving Zella Day is an automatic AV?
It was worth a try, now shut up hoe
More that song in particular seeing as it's easily her most well-known and it's been tried so many times here (I think this is its third separate veto). Anything else by her would probably be alright.
