El Sueño is the only one I recognise in here, I reckon that’ll do pretty well.
not Daehun sending their fourth Red Velvet song!
Great choice from Hendinia from my semi and Summericia from the other semi!
(also kinda glad that the song I thought people were gonna end didn’t end up in this contest, looks like it’s free for another month )
PJ Brennan has a music career?
Thanks for stepping in to host once more Leww xx (the final may yet still be hosted by Brechtoria btw but not sure yet)
'El Sueño' is the only one I know in my semi as well, that's quite a bop so a good start! Know a couple more in the other semi, sending my hype over to Flynnonda and particularly Skall.
Unovia sending the third different artist named Luna to appear in BJSC *_*
DOBAGO SENDING EDEN I LOVE YOU AND THAT SONG
That Hot Since 82 song is fab too, ofc both are not in my semi ffs
I'm fully back in the #dancebloc this time so semi 2 looks pretty good *.*
Brechtoria sending a Hushky potential YASSSS
ARRHULT getting vetoed with some of the names on this list though
omg - circle add new reply "excited"
omg ew not swmrs!!!!
saw them live when they supported all time low and ive never wanted to leave a gig so much in my life lmao but fully giving this a chance dw x
also recognise ok kid and dutch uncles from my semi *.*
Not Only Fire
S P O T I F Y
Unavailable...
nothing
Unavailable
3 // Vülkyria // Ridgewalkers - Find (Emitters Remix) (feat. EL)
10 // Jupiterdonia // Antonia - Touch Me
Addy !!!!!!!!!!!
Also know a few others, looks good from what I know!
BTW my song is all about black empowerment so I am fully #BJSCSoWhite if it DNQs xx
(YT playlists will appear in the second post of this thread later tonight, not gonna take days to do them this time x)
So with Eluveitie and Chisu, that's like a reunion in my semi of my European artists... as I've sent another one. Semi 1 has some good/interesting names besides that too, I reckon that might be a tough one.
Hmm, I’d feel a lot more confident in the other semi
Sending the first legitimately competitive (at least theoretically until everyone's woot buttons mysteriously break on plug) entry this year so don't y'all dare let it flop!
Lidl is way bettee than that Ultra!!
If you want a song with a 2000s chorus, then mine is IT.
(And a proper chorus ofc)
Bugger, almost every country who I thought might vote for mine is in the other semi
umpah umpah being allowed when i wasn’t allowed to send peekaboo
I SEE YALL
but anyway
VOTE AESTHETICA OR YOU’RE HOMOPHOBIC
How very apt for my entry to be at the start of the songlist. Here's hoping it didn't finish at the end of the scoreboard.
your welcome brewhoria <3
Hey guys, I want to apologise for my absence. My boyfriend has been in hospital so it’s been a tough time in the real world! Thanks so much to the mods for sorting out the semi’s! I’ll be back to do the final, I’m sure of it!
Thanks and sorry to everyone for the delay!
welcome back holland-oats, yet another show stopper here wow what a fantastic entry
Not in it, but FARC have nailed it. What a bop!
Hopefully some of the pop countries in semi 2 enjoy mine!
Sorry to hear that Bradders, hope he is fine.
Was Psycho Girl Ava Max’s first demo she recorded in her bedroom at 16 that later become ‘Sweet But Psycho’... because it certainly sounds like it?
croi croi croi
Aw Bradders hope all is fine!
The most hilarious thing about Psycho Girl (along with croi croi croi) is Sam told me that Lisa has been on social media going on and on about how it sounds like Sweet But Psycho and trying to prove it
Semi 1 should be labelled produced and directed by Aeroche, it's fab. I can only assume t'other one is pop, this is rather varied, I'm down to 21 tracks I want to point after one runthrough.
That means 11 good tracks getting nul, zero, nada, sweet FA, less than 1 point, nothing, they are cannonfodder, pushing up the points daisies. Don't blame me, I blame the voting system
I foresee all the nice ones getting passed over in the results. Boooooo....
Voted. A decent, high quality semi on the whole with a few brill discoveries. Semi 1 is better overall though, what a qualification bloodbath that will be, almost everything is good/great.
voted. Semi 1 is so fab, bloodbath is the word!
Semi Two is great! Definitely needed a break from the contest to come back and appreciate it! I currently have 18 songs I want to vote for so I'm gonna have to whittle them down in the next few days. Only the one song I wouldn't give a second chance which is very good!
psycho girl is a LAUGH AND A HALF but I think cruel summer is the better novelty entry fidldjfkgjdk
'Novelty'? I'm pretty sure 'Cruel Summer' is an entirely serious entry tbh.
As no one else has volunteered yet I'm happy to do some plug sessions over the next few days btw ~ maybe tomorrow and Tuesday unless that's clashing with anything important? x
!!!
Pa Pa Pa Pa Pafect Illusion Part 2!
We plugging at some point?
Happy to host Semi 2 if no one else does- which evening is best for everyone?
I'll try to join in if I'm around... tomorrow for semi 1 would suit me
^ would be good if you could take semi 2 (@ Jacob), I'll host semi 1 tomorrow evening!
^Okay I'll go for Tuesday for Semi 2 in that case!
Shame I’m not in the west anymore, I’m really curious as to what people think of my entry, more than most months this time, but now all your evenings are 3am again.
It's very funny you should say that^, as I was giving Semi 1 a quick spin yesterday and found something so specifically obscure when I came across your entry.
The song samples what I believe is an old Bulgarian folk song, and I was very close to sending a cover version of that very song:
This was right up there on my potentials list but what put me off it is a) not being able to find a version without the off-putting speech throughout (the song was modified into being a failed mountain rescue mission or something) and b) there not being a Spotify version to fall back on. As such there's no way I'll ever be sending it now but it feels necessary to get this into the open.
How interesting! That part sounds quite otherworldly, and it was a big part of what convinced me to send my song, though I hadn't realised it was Bulgarian or knew it was a sample (and not just a guest recording or something). Shame about those news reports, it'd work very well without it.
Voted. Some great discoveries here
If anyone wants them:

Come join xx will start some time after 8 as ever.
Lotunia's entry stole my heart this month. Shoutout to Arcodesia and BuzzJack Mountain too!! Great semi, shame I can't vote in it.
Great semi this month - I'm going to have quite a tough time cutting them down for votes. Only about three that I didn't like.
OK now I'm really gutted I didn't sneak something in as I can't vote for Lotunia :'( Be good to that one guys x
Semi 2 plug is tomorrow right guys?
That is the plan! Assuming Jacob will still be good to go with it x
Got my votes in now, only doing one listen as I don't know if I'll have the time to do a relisten, think my top 10 looks pretty solid and wouldn't change much anyway though. This was a very consistently good semi especially in the first half, it was slightly lacking in really huge favourites but a lot of moderately big favourites.
Rooting for the underdog nations here, Buzzjack Mountain, East Rukahavian and Lotunia did gud. Some hype to Cor Lupus, Fljótavík and Hendinia too x
Voted! Enjoyed the variety in that semi.
Yas, I will aim for roughly 8:30 to 9pm start so should be all done by 11ish! Similar to Bré I'll just say "sometime after 8:30". Would've preferred to do it earlier but something's come up today, all going well it won't be too late for most people, you bunch of night owls. x
Thats grand thanks superstar
Voted, this might be my fave semi top 10 of the year!
Set le playlist up so as soon as I'm free later I'll be able to get things going pretty quickly (allowing time for people to arrive of course x).
Heading on now for a pre-party!
https://plug.dj/buzzjack-listen-throughs
Ta-daaaa!
I may join later but obvs Bake Off has to take priority
Wherefore art thou Jacob x
has lew won yet
Just started with AQs now! Apologies on being late something came up irl. x

Soz for unnecessary lines this is just how I formatted and cba to change. x
Jadakissnia have voted!
That’s right folks, a full house for Cruel Summer!
Sending major hype for Florina, don't let me down please semi 2 voters!! Reminded me so much of early Arctic Monkeys, what a banger.
Dobago (again!), Espen, Thelonia and Utopia get my hype as well x (although Thelonia to DNQ #starttheloniaracism)
Also Only Fire was legit kinda good.
this really is flynnonda's year huh. that one contest break did harry wonders
Flynnonda have been so good this year! It was always going to be hard for me to not stan a Paradis song though
Voted. Semi 1 was very good but the absence of anything that stood out made it a struggle to decide which song to give 12 points to. My top 10 all changed positions after the second listen.
Voted!
Voted!
Only knew 'TRXD - Someone Else' from before. It was a pretty decent semi.
okay you succulent christmas divas i'm awaiting 41 votes and you should ALL have a reminder so don't let me down x
TOMORROW AT 23:59 XXXXX
Will be with you today Lewww
Voted, I didn't know Lotunia was THAT by name omg, MY HEART
Voted!
Some really good songs in this month's batch.
That semi really wasn't for me whoops, have a feeling my songs not gonna do too great in that bunch ffs
Oh I dunno, it's likely to stand out at least. I liked it!
Vülkyria has voted! We are fully prepared to DNQ 🤸♀️
Voted! Pretty good semi! Not feeling too confident about qualifying in that!
Rép d'Ákz has voted
Speedlistening atm but who dafuq took Majela ZeZe Diamond lyrics, set it to a cheap beat and tried to pass it off as a Taylor Swift song?
New Lexico's wo...VOTES are in!
See, I didn't do it!
Voted, glad to see some people like my Kingdom Hearts track, means a lot to me
omfg
I just wanna say thank you to Klumzee bc thanks to his BJSC entry I finally found that fake Ariana Grande song meme that was floating around tumblr this time last year
Psycho Girl to win
Also Cruel Summer to slay plz (even tho I'm low-key bitter that this got through and Ma-Ma-Pa-Pa-Pa Perfect Illusion got vetoed for me about 50 times xxx)
Results will be tomorrow guys, I’ve been at my mum’s house over the last 24 hours on account of an emergency so they should be with you tomorrow! 😊
Weave emergency. I'd passed through the area, snatching weave in all direction.
oh no Lew </3 praying that everything will be okay
Don’t worry if they’re not finished Lewwww. Hope things are now okay?
Things are good now and we should be on track for results tonight! 😊. Thank you guys for your messages X
Glad to see things are OK now!
I'm listening to Semi 2, doing stuff, and then it's Cruel Summer Wow.
I've never cringed so badly at a song until I heard Psycho Girl. Then Cruel Summer came along and topped it
Both are fab and I want to see both in the final.
lmao cruel summer is a JOURNEY
Cruel Summe5 and apsycho girl to Q please
Sorry guys, really late day at work and I'm exhausted so it will need to be tomorrow now Just been unlucky this week!
dont worry lew, you gotta put yourself first x
I don't even need to hype up my entry this month. Look at this CRUEL SUMMER IMPAKT *.*
No worries Leww, whenever works best for you! Wouldn't have been around today anyway so maybe I'll catch it live.
thanks my crispy turkey escalopes, just had a six hour nap and back 2 normal so yessss sunday night results party #susanalbumparty xxxx
Who wouldn’t look forward to a Sunday susanalbumparty!
Guys quick question, I'm trying to send a PM to the mods regarding my 50th entry but can seemingly only send it to one mod at a time + Oricon, is there a way to send it to all at once at all?
send it my way and i'll let them all know!
