Welcome to BuzzJack Song Contest, I'm guessing you are debuting in the next contest like me?
Welcome And like Oricon, I will be debuting in the next contest too
Just voted in my semi-final
A very good quality semi-final in my opinion
Thanks to Dalisska, Palmyra, Botanikka, Numayania, Allecian, Espen, Mezidinia, Farahtyn, Zechonian and Seyetana for voting
Oh well, we don't qualify
But best of luck to everyone in the final. Good Luck.
Disappointed, I gave Funda 12pts!
I gave you 4 points as well, I guess it's not enough from a very indie semi
Oh well, we didn't qualify in the final.
It was a high quality semi-final.
But best of luck to everyone in the final
Daehun sends our commiserations to Usfland
Greenfroze as well; it was a beautiful entry
Sorry for your DNQ, I really loved it and would have given it 7 or 8 points had I been in your semi!
So Usfland are in semi-final 2
Usfland here, wishing Jonas Alaska good luck in the semi-final.
Possibly we could get to the final:
What do our fellow countries think of Usfland's entry? What's your honest opinion?
Good luck to every country taking part in the semi-finals
Just voted in our semi-final.
Good luck to everyone taking part in BJSC XLI
Oh well we didn't qualify for the final in BJSC XLI.
In the next contest, Usfland may try K-Pop
What do other countries think?
Potential entries for the next contest:
10cm- sorrow
Teen Top/ Going Crazy
Dalshabet/ Hit U
Tell us what you think of these entries
YES, YOU SHOULD ALWAYS TRY K-POP!!
But 10cm isn't an idol group but an indie artist in K-Pop. A change in K-Pop I guess, I will fully support any K-Pop songs
Maybe you should send female vocals instead though, as male vocals backfire a lot. As seen with your latest entry which didn't qualify through and the more tragic B.A.P
Dalshabet
YES TO GOING CRAZY AND HIT U!!!
Why thank me, I must thank you for liking K/J-Pop actually
Best choice would be:
01: Hit U
02: Going Crazy
03: The 10cm song
What I prefer though:
01: Going Crazy
02: Hit U
03: The 10cm song
I would personally choose Teen Tops song as I think it's catchy. Downside is, the beats are generic (the producer is the one who produced SISTAR's So Cool who has a habit of recycling the sound..) so some voters who not vote it but I do think the pop side will. Also it's sung by a boy group aka male vocals thus it won't do incredibily justice in the contest
Hit U would be better, but it's too miss A styled..
Btw I too am sending a K-Pop song in the next contest, it's always good to have 2 right?
Usfland's entry has been confirmed.
We'll find out soon what our entry is. As our dive into K-Pop begins
So it is K-Pop
Oooh! I am really looking forward to this!
Here at Usfland we are increasing the capacity of our JC Usfland Area from 5,000 to 10,000. Should be ready soon for the final of BJSC XLII.
Also we're looking forward to what everyone has sent as their song for the semi-finals.
Hopefully with our gamble that we taking on, we can reach the final.
If its K-Pop, it's been on the barrier recently as you can see through myasthenia 3 entries. They only scratched to make the finals and always coming Bottom 7 in the results
But best of luck anyways and you will have Daehun's support
From the country pronouncation forum:
Which of these are best to pronounce Usfland?
You-seph-land
U-s-fland
used-fland
Us-flund
Us-ef-land
Eussthf-land
Thank you to the users who recommended these
You seph land and the last 2 practically sound the same, I'd say go for that one
I think my suggestion was the best.
Nope, mine was
So Dalshabet/ Hit U is our entry for BJSC XLIII. The gamble is K-Pop to try and get us to the final
We're in Semi-Final 1. Tell us what you think of our entry. And how well do you think we'll do?
I'm in a different semi from you, sadly I wish the best of luck in your entry though as it certainly is my favourite from what you entered so far into the contest
I'm in the same semi final as you, although I haven't heard it yet. But I generally love K-pop, so there's a big chance you'll get my support!
So Usfland are going to enter the upcoming contest. We couldn't take part in the last contest because of technicial problems. Hopefully we would have any this time.
Here is the possible song we might enter:
Let us know what you think
It's very risky ukcsf. It is a ballad and I sent one of them in and DNQed (my first ever entry), that said I LOVE the song to bits as she is from Girls' Generation whom I adore.
There's also another problem that it MIGHT get vetoed? I THINK (not too sure) that Tom is sending a K-Pop entry this time in which she is part of the trio so it might face some problems I reckon.
So Usfland have entered Kara/ Speed Up for the BJSC XLIV contest. How well do you think we'll do?
For our second entry in a row we've still stuck with K-Pop
Speed Up climbing all the time in Usfland's Top40 this week.
Usfland wishes all the countries that are taking part in BJSC XLIV
Usfland have just voted in our semi-final.
Good luck to everyone taking part
Sadly Kara failed to get to the final for Usfland.
But Usfland would like to say a big thank you to: Daehun, Umiiruka, Farahtyn, Hendinia, Sandeborg for giving us points.
Usfland will back for the next contest hopefully. May be a slight change of path for the next entry
So for BJSC XLV. Usfland has decided to enter this:
NETSKY/ COME ALIVE
Please tell us what do you think of this entry? And what chances do we have of getting to the final?
Sadly Netsky didn't make the final. Another DNQ for Usfland.
Well done to all the countries who made the final.
What now for us?
Commiserations from Daehun. I liked your entry but wasn't in your final to support it
I gave your entry 5 points as it was one of my favourites! A real shame you didn't make it, hopefully you will be able to qualify next time!
For BJSC XLVI
Usfland decided to enter Camo & Krooked/ Cross The Line ft Ayah Marar
We are in SF1.
What do you think of our entry?
From all in Usfland.
We wish to thank everyone who voted for our entry to help us reach the final for the first time since BJSC XXXVIII where Marlon Roudette/ New Age got us to that final.
How well do you think we'll do in the final?
We wish to thank the following countries for the points that you gave Camo & Krooked in the final for Usfland:
Tinnmark
#00274E
Daehun
Dandelanda
Keypopian Republic
Lake Thermwoods
N-Lazone
Eledan
Batidas
Hendinia
Kopecka
Sandeborg
Terra Avium
Ingermanlandia
Usfland came 26th out of 30 in the final with 72 points. We are delighted to have reached the final.
We'll see you for the next BJSC contest.
For BJSC XLVII. Usfland have decided to enter Calyx & TeeBee/ Elevate This Sound
We're in SF2 and in and placed 12th in that Semi-Final.
What other countries think for our entry and should we have stuck with the same genre or not?
For BJSC 48.
Usfland have decided to enter Twin Shadow/ Five Seconds. A switch from drum 'n' bass that we had done doing for the last 3 BJSC contests. What do you think of this? And how do you think we'll do?
I kinda forgot about Twin Shadow's existence between their debut and when you entered this. I'm not in your semi (that's Skall), but it will be absolutely criminal if this doesn't qualify. What an instant fucking classic!
TWIN SHADOW REACH THE FINAL FOR USFLAND.
Twin Shadow's 'Five Seconds' has qualified for the final for Usfland. Which will be our 4th BJSC final in 11 contests that we've completed in. We are absolutely delighted that we qualified in our semi-final and we wait and see how we do in the final.
Thank you to everyone who voted.
TWIN SHADOW FINISH IN 9TH FOR USFLAND
Usfland has got their 1st ever Top10 finish thanks to Twin Shadow 'Five Seconds'. We finished 9th in this contest with 116 points. The best we've ever done in the final which eclipses our 18th place in our very first contest with Charice 'One Day'. Thank you for voting for our entry and we'll see you in for the next contest.
So not long to the semi-finals in BJSC XLIX. Here in Usfland, we are looking to reach our second final in a row after the success of Twin Shadow which gave us our best result ever in BJSC. Good luck to all the countries taking part in BJSC 49.
ANOTHER really really good entry. I may have first heard it 18 months ago but that's a minor detail. Plus, it has connections to last month's winner:
Furthermore, when I entered 'Goth Star' by the same artist, it won Unknown Pleasures, woo!!! So I'm sincerely hoping this qualifies.
So Usfland have entered for BJSC XLIX:
PICTUREPLANE/ REAL IS A FEELING
What are people's prospects of this entry? Also how do you think this will do for us in BJSC
So Pictureplane has qualified through their semi-final for us and get us to our 2nd final in a row. 5th in total since we've completed in BJSC since September 2011.
Thank you to everyone who voted for us.
PICTUREPLANE FINISH 22ND IN THE BJSC XLIX FINAL FOR USFLAND
Pictureplane's 'Real Is A Feeling' have managed to finish in 22nd out of 29 in the final of BJSC 49 with a total of 64pts. We wish to thank everyone who voted for us and we will be back for BJSC L for the 50th contest. It will be a big honour for us to take part in the 50th song contest.
For the 50th BJSC- Usfland have entered:
COLOUR CODING/ PERFECT
What do people think of our entry? How well do you think we'll do?
Netsky's 'Come Alive' come 20th in the BJSC TBO REJECTS V Final.

HENRY KRINKLE QUALIFIES FOR THE BJSC LIX FINAL

i honestly think if there's gonna be a shock win this month it's gonna be this!!! i think top 5 isn't out of the question.
HENRY KRINKLE FINISHES 7TH IN BJSC LIX FINAL
Henry Krinkle's 'Stay' has finished 7th in BJSC LIX for us with a total of 141 points. 'Stay' has surpassed our best place in BJSC which was 9th in BJSC 48 with Twin Shadow's 'Five Seconds'.
This is the second time ever that we have finished in the Top10 in a BJSC final.
We wish to thank everyone who voted for our entry.
We look forward to BJSC LX.
FOR BJSC LX-
We have entered:
TOM DAY- GOING HOME
What do our fellow countries think of our entry?
TOM DAY HAS QUALIFIED FOR THE BJSC LX FINAL
We wish to thank everyone who has voted for our entry in our semi-final.
Thank you very much for introducing me to this, it really is gorgeous. Might just be my favorite thing you've ever sent (and that's tough when Sir Sly & Twin Shadow are included there!)
On the flipside~ I'm not a huge fan of Tom Day's song but as I didn't post in here before I have to thank you for introducing me to 'Stay'
Due to unforeseen circumstances, Usfland will be pulling out of BJSC.
We wish to thank everyone who has supported us throughout the last 2 years.
Our highest place was 7th in BJSC LIX with Henry Krinkle's 'Stay'
!
Wat!
NOOOOOOO.
BJSC LXX beckons for Usfland as we are back following an agreement to come back to BJSC. That's if you want us back though.

The organiser behind the entry of 'Set The Mood' has been fined heavily for his involvement in entering that song. Usfland's organisers have made sure that nothing like this will happen again and that there will be a overhaul on how songs get entered by Usfland for future BJSCs.

So it is a 7th DNQ in a row for us with 'Pinnacle' finishing 26th in the semi-final. We wish to thank everyone who voted for us. There is always next time.

What do people think of our entry?
Ah very nice retro throwback there!
This is my favourite entry from you for a long time! Really hope it can qualify.
I hope so too. Thought it was worth a punt entering this. Missed the last BJSC as I completely forgot about the Google form to enter BJSC.
For the first time in forever pardon the Frozen pan. We have qualified for our 2nd BJSC final in a row bar the last contest we missed due a silly admin error.

LIDO- SO COLD (MINNESOTA REMIX)
What do you think of our entry?
It's official
Usfland will be changing their name to East Rukahavian.
This was done after controversy over the country's name and an decision was taken by deed poll to change it.
this is possibly my favourite entry from you this year, very chainsmokers mixed with Ella Eyre soundalike vocals which the latter is a very good thing imo!
We have finished 37th for BJSC 98. Thank you to everyone who voted.
Thanks to everyone who voted for Maja Amcoff. Cheers.
For BJSC 103:

Cheers to everyone who voted for us in the final. 39th out of 39th in the final. Still glad to have qualified for the final.
really liked this one!
For BJSC 113.
We have entered:
MALLA- SABRINA
What do you think of our entry?
This is your best entry for ages! Surely this one HAS to qualify.
I like that you've suddenly switched from endless Spanish/Portuguese songs to endless Finnish songs
After five and a half years, East Rukahavian have surpassed their highest position in BJSC by finishing sixth with "Sabrina '. October 2013 with 'Stay' by Henry Krinkle was out highest position until then.
We wish to thank everyone for voting for us.
This missed out on my votes but great to see you finally get another top ten and it is your best entry in a good while too!
Thanks for being my biggest supporter of all time too, this month you've overtook Ethanola
For BJSC 114
We have entered:
Jannika B ~ Kaksi Jotka Pelkää

What do you think of our entry?
For BJSC 117
We have entered:
CHISU- Ikävä
What do you think of our entry?
For BJSC 119.
We have entered:
NEA- SOME SAY
What do you think of our entry?
I don't know if it was intentional but this sounds like it samples Blue by Eiffel 65? There are definite similarities in the melody.
Congratulations are in order to the people of East Rukahavian tonight for their former entry Breaking Me now becoming a UK top 40 hit! An extremely rare and impressive achievement in this day and age.
yasss breaking me is such a tune - got scherzland’s 12 points in the final. we know a hit when we hear one x
congrats!
I've just seen that 'Some Say' was a hit in Europe too!
People in East Rukahavian are celebrating tonight as 'Breaking Me' becomes a UK Top 20 hit.
Well done!
PS. loving your current entry too
Thanks to everyone who voted for our entry in BJSC 124.
It was at this point East Rukahavian knew they messed up.
Bottom of the table not great hence the time for a change in direction for the next contest?
An administrative error is the reason East Rukahavian failed to submit an entry.
Sorry really need to update this:
We have entered for BJSC 138:
PRIYANKA FT LEMON- COME THROUGH
What do you think of our entry?
For BJSC 142,
We entered:
+44- No It Isn't
What do you think of our entry?
Very blink-182! I liked it.
No It Isn't has finished bottom for East Rukahavian in BJSC 142.
A change in direction possibly for our next entry. We thought we had a chance of making the final but not to be.
For Pride III
We have entered:
DIVINE- SHOOT YOUR SHOT
What do you think of our entry?
Time for the truth.
Our 'cheap generic dance entries' will be no more in the future.
East Rukahavian have always done their utmost to participate in BJSC and will continue to do so.
aw come on don’t let these haters gaslight you out of sending something that’s a tried and tested method!
Tbf Spinning Records era East Rukahavian did bring gems like Serotonin and Mr Belt & Wezol *.*
mack mr belt and wezol / redondo were two FANTASTIC discoveries for me. send what you want!!! and i really enjoy ur latest entry ♥️
So without using our 'cheap generic dance entries', East Rukahavian have qualified for the final. A spokesman reported that they don't accept our Head of BJSC entries is not a 'cheap hoe' as it was reported that he was following their entries with Spinnin' Records and are demanding an apology. We spoke to Faith Capaldi and she said 'East Rukahavian will always continue to support BJSC'. however this is the first time people of East Rukahavian have listened to her as with her surnames both being two singers that are forbidden to listen to.
An immediate investigation is underway at East Rukahavian, as the embarassment of a nil pointer has happened last night during the semi-final results. A spokesman for East Rukahavian said:
0 points is iconic! A very exclusive club to be part of. I’m sure you’ll bounce back strong with something you’re proud of sending!
For BJSC 150,
We have entered:
soft serve- Wait For You
Following the fiasco of BJSC 149. we have decided to change genre for this contest. We spoke to Faith Capaldi and she said
Not meant to be, but we'll be back, thanks to everyone for your votes. Better feedback than previous entries which include the nul-pointer, generic dance entries and the notorious David Jordan entry.
There's always the next contest, the options start now.
I am quite sad this one didn't make it as I thought it stood out a lot in the semi, thanks for a great song discovery anyway!
This already sounded good from when I was previewing the songs before the contest started but it did continue to grow also, not enough to make votes but it was included in the difficult batch to cut really. It'll be more down to how strong most found the semi more than anything. Keep it up tho Mack!
It may be an similar genre for our next entry.
For BJSC 155:
