Thanks to those of you who submitted nominations a while back, apologies for the delay but we're now finally moving on to the voting for the eleventh edition of The Best of BJSC - The Rejects. We'll be skipping the semi-finals stage (it's been a long enough delay already x) and going straight to a final - out of 205 eligible songs, 39 managed to secure nominations from at least six countries which is about the average size of a normal BJSC final so that seems like an appropriate cutoff.

Stay tuned tonight if you're around as I reveal the lucky 39 songs which missed out on a final position last year but will now get a belated shot at some justice in the Rejects final cool.gif starting pretty soon and I'll try and get through it quickly ~

First a quick reminder of last year's Rejects winner from Ultraviolenceland...



A tough act to follow wub.gif x

< FINALISTS 01 - 04 >

01 Daehun 109 // IU - You & I
02 Altyr Muunilinst 109 // Laura Branigan - Solitaire
03 Vülkyria 103 // Brendan Maclean - House Of Air
04 Summericia 109 // Anne Clark - Our Darkness


Excel's random number generator has frontloaded this Rejects final with songs from BJSC 109 (there may be a few more to come ~) Daehun open the show with K-Pop megastar IU, who was behind Daehun's first ever BJSC top 10 hit with 'Good Day' but has DNQed all four times she's been entered since (three more for Daehun and one for Elëdan). 'You & I' only just missed out on the final of BJSC 109 though and it's made it through here. The other two BJSC 109 cuts here are of the retro variety, with Altyr Muunilinst's 1983 electropop offering from the late Laura Branigan making it in alongside the 1984 spoken word/darkwave track from Anne Clark representing the currently dormant Summericia. We go back to BJSC 103 for the other finalist here, Vülkyria with Brendan Maclean's 'House Of Air', of infamous NSFW/L music video fame (still not linked here lest Google shut the site down xx). This one would have made it the first time around if not for a deduction so no surprise to see it sail through here.

I've not prepared any fancy graphics or anything so this'll just be a basic reveal with some rambly paragraphs xox

Good to see Vülkyria and Summericia through there. I still haven't watched the video for the former though and I probably don't want to either. laugh.gif

Anyway we demand justice for our flop!1!

'House Of Air' was an obvious qualifier but great to see it through nevertheless wub.gif

< FINALISTS 05 - 08 >

01 Daehun 109 // IU - You & I
02 Altyr Muunilinst 109 // Laura Branigan - Solitaire
03 Vülkyria 103 // Brendan Maclean - House Of Air
04 Summericia 109 // Anne Clark - Our Darkness
05 Ultraviolenceland 105 // Vennu Mallesh - It's My Life What Ever I Wanna Do
06 Wholune 108 // Deco - Chances
07 Thelonia 102 // Madeaux - The Wave (feat. BRUX)
08 Lotunia 105 // Sofia Jannok - Snölejoninna (feat. Addeboy Vs. Cliff)


Last year's Rejects winners Ultraviolenceland book themselves a place in this year's final as well with the ICON Vennu Mallesh's inspirational anthem. Time will tell if the voting public will search good in bad or just search bad in good in this final. Wholune's debut entry from Deco is getting a lot of mileage ('Chances' is an appropriate title) as, on top of it being in Your Best of BJSC II (results pending x), it's also made it through here for a third shot at glory. Thelonia make it through with Madeaux featuring BRUX which, fun fact, is an alias of Elizabeth Rose, this one fell 1 place short of the final early last year as Thelonia often did prior to their recent rise to making the final much more consistently. Lastly in this section is a Sámi bop from Lotunia's Sofia Jannok, whose title translates to 'snow lion' #cats.

Sofia Jannok was one of my 12s in a semi last year so I massively approve of that too - weird but wonderful wub.gif

10 Terra Avium 110 // Goblin - Suspiria
11 Holland-Oats 106 // Chet Faker - Gold
12 New Lexico 106 // CYN - Believer


Another track getting a third shot at success as it's also in YBO II, Cowtermont make it in here with the hypnotising 'Relax' by mau5trap signee REZZ. Chez's call for justice is answered as Terra Avium are also in with their spooky retro movie soundtrack from Goblin, the first qualifier so far from the most recent eligible contest. Unlike most of these qualifiers so far, this one was nowhere near qualifying first time round, actually finishing in second last place in the semi-final on equal points with the wooden spoon! They're followed by a pair of tracks which came close in BJSC 106, everyone's fave purveyor of Halloween music Chet Faker making it for Holland-Oats (I've always been surprised by how badly the handful of Chet Faker BJSC entries have all done) and New Lexico also qualifying with a poppy tune from CYN.

REZZ wub.gif wub.gif I was already a fan at the time but I've grown to love it even more now. Yay!! 'Gold' was also a big fave.

Well, that's a result *.* ALMOST makes up for that second last position for one of the best horror movie soundtracks ever. Would be lovely to get Goodbye (or Koto lol) in as well, but I'm less hopeful for that (clearly not as good as Vennu Mallesh x)

REZZ was a criminal DNQ for yay for that! Just kinda hoping for some tracks I remember here x

< FINALISTS 13 - 16 >

01 Daehun 109 // IU - You & I
02 Altyr Muunilinst 109 // Laura Branigan - Solitaire
03 Vülkyria 103 // Brendan Maclean - House Of Air
04 Summericia 109 // Anne Clark - Our Darkness
05 Ultraviolenceland 105 // Vennu Mallesh - It's My Life What Ever I Wanna Do
06 Wholune 108 // Deco - Chances
07 Thelonia 102 // Madeaux - The Wave (feat. BRUX)
08 Lotunia 105 // Sofia Jannok - Snölejoninna (feat. Addeboy Vs. Cliff)
09 Cowtermont 103 // REZZ - Relax
10 Terra Avium 110 // Goblin - Suspiria
11 Holland-Oats 106 // Chet Faker - Gold
12 New Lexico 106 // CYN - Believer
13 Tartford 106 // I'm From Barcelona - We're From Barcelona
14 Skall 101 // Bandolero - Paris Latino
15 Cowtermont 110 // GFOTY - Tongue
16 Kluminican Republic 109 // Peter Crowley - Queen Of The Sea


Another BJSC 106 song next and it's a bit of an unexpected oddball qualifier, Tartford make it through against the odds with the endearing I'm From Barcelona despite it coming dead last in its original semi-final - clearly made enough of an impression on those who nominated here to be through anyway (and in fact it got in pretty safely with more than 6 nominations). Skall's first entry of the year, and first of many undeserved DNQs, a multi-lingual retro bop from Bandolero (with the iconic Doctor B) is also through. Cowtermont become the first country with more than one appearance in this Rejects final as they are of course in with PC Music's GFOTY as well, it was very surprising this one missed out the first time following her top 5 smash with 'Friday Night'. That means Cowtermont have made it with both of their eligible songs, could they be vying to win this as well after winning the main TBO with Moby? Finally we have some epic siren music from Peter Crowley making it in for the Kluminican Republic.

19 Beaverdonia Impakt Nation 106 // Panama - Always
20 Taahino 108 // mewithoutYou - Julia (Or, 'Holy To The LORD' On The Bells Of Horses)


Our second K-Pop qualifier, although a very different style to IU, comes from Jupiterdonia with 'Lower' from f(x) members AMBER and LUNA. Keeping with the all caps artist names theme, Harmonica make it through with ARY's 'Already There' which I remember being one of the most surprising DNQs of the year having been tipped to be her first big hit in BJSC after two previous entries finishing in the 30s, could she get her redemption here? Beaverdonia's electronic offering from Panama, which they entered under their temporary rebrand as Beaverdonia Impakt Nation, also makes it through as does the rather incredible artsy rock from mewithoutYou representing Taahino, I'd have been having words with you all if that one didn't make it (I also see it has an official music video now ;o)
