Pushing back the start of the results to 8:30 as I'm not quite ready with the prep yet (just 4 more posts left to write up!) - stay tuned ~ results should go on for about 2 hours. Perhaps a good excuse to whack on the Spotify playlist again in the background as you watch the results unfold Any predictions? I can exclusively confirm #leaks that we don't have a runaway winner, a good handful of different songs get their turn at #1 on the running scoreboards and it was still flipping between the ultimate contenders right up to the last couple of votes! Happy that we did get a full house of voters to ensure that our eventual winner is definitive x |

hyping the Cassandra Jenkins entry, it felt like a more mellow female equivalent to Black Country New Road (which probably means it won't appeal to anyone but me)
I'd expected Wolfclub to be a landslide winner, but i guess not? still pretty sure it'll win though |

Looking forward to the results! Glad there's a full house of voters too (or indeed an overflowing one!)
Aeroplane Jane has become iconic, would be cool to see it do well here. Very interesting that there isn't a runaway winner, should keep things entertaining throughout! |

Right, let's get cracking ~ will post once every 4 minutes (I'm a minute late to this first one #flop but I've just finished with the prep posts so I'll be on time for the rest, unless of course the site crashes again). Please do post along with any nice words about the songs / ponderings about the developing results as they're revealed, as I don't want to be just posting to myself too much x
01/30 | Ghosty. Anna Ternheim - Lovers Dream (feat. Fyfe Dangerfield) Despite taking a full week after the thread went up to deliver votes, first-time Nuggets participant Ghosty nonetheless is our earlybird of the contest so we kick off proceedings revealing his entry to come from Swedish 'anti-folk' singer Anna Ternheim, with a little help from a feature slot from English musician Fyfe Dangerfield of Guillemots fame - one of the more recognisable names in the contest thanks to his success both with his band and with his solo release 'She's Always A Woman' which made the UK top 10 in 2010 - but will that translate to Nuggets success? Stay tuned to find out. QUOTE Hey, here are my votes for Nuggets 12 THE HARDKISS - Kobra (feat. MONATIK) 10 Starbenders - Cover Me 08 Dalriada - Őszi Ének 07 One Night Only - Plasticine 06 Kalandra - Slow Motion 05 Manchester Orchestra - The Silence 04 MiG 15 - Cowboys & Indians 03 The Joy Formidable - The Leopard And The Lung 02 Soda Stereo - De Música Ligera 01 Kid Kapichi - Glitterati Thanks, Martin 1 12 THE HARDKISS - Kobra (feat. MONATIK) 2 10 Starbenders - Cover Me 3 8 Dalriada - Őszi Ének 4 7 One Night Only - Plasticine 5 6 Kalandra - Slow Motion 6 5 Manchester Orchestra - The Silence 7 4 MiG 15 - Cowboys & Indians 8 3 The Joy Formidable - The Leopard And The Lung 9 2 Soda Stereo - De Música Ligera 10 1 Kid Kapichi - Glitterati 11 0 Anna Ternheim - Lovers Dream (feat. Fyfe Dangerfield) [Ghosty.] 12 0 Cassandra Jenkins - Hard Drive 13 0 ENVYYOU - New Friends 14 0 Frozen Night and PrinceWhateverer - Lunar Eclipse III (feat. Holly Frances Royle and Andra Stefan) 15 0 Ian Post - Once And For All 16 0 Joe Wong - Dreams Wash Away 17 0 Karen Zoid - Aeroplane Jane 18 0 King Hannah - Crème Brûlée 19 0 Le Tigre - Deceptacon 20 0 Michigander - Misery 21 0 Miss Grit - Impostor 22 0 Mute Swan - Life-Like Dream 23 0 Rinse & Repeat - Noise Inside My Ear 24 0 Saint Nomad - Nothing To Lose 25 0 Seven Spires - Succumb 26 0 Story Untold - i luv that u hate me (feat. Kellin Quinn) 27 0 Told Slant - Family Still 28 0 W O L F C L U B - Just Drive (feat. Summer Haze) 29 0 Yard Act - Dark Days THE HARDKISS take the early lead and our initial podium positions are filled by Starbenders and Dalriada, with One Night Only and Kalandra rounding out the top 5. (BTW the scoreboards should have most ties broken throughout this - ties in points broken first by number of votes, then by number of 12s, 10s then 8s, anything still tied after that will remain just listed alphabetically by artist). |

02/30 | FrankLuck
Dalriada - Őszi Ének Frank is up next and in a classic Nuggets shock, I'm sure absolutely no one would have ever predicted he'd be the one sending the Hungarian act! He is represented by folk metal band Dalriada, who got off to a great start getting a medal position from the first voter. Let's see how far Frank's own votes push his song down. QUOTE Hey Bré, What a great contest, ranking these gems is close to impossible Here's what I came up with: 12 The Joy Formidable - The Leopard And The Lung 10 Seven Spires - Succumb 08 Miss Grit - Impostor 07 Manchester Orchestra - The Silence 06 Soda Stereo - De Música Ligera 05 Michigander - Misery 04 One Night Only - Plasticine 03 THE HARDKISS - Kobra (feat. MONATIK) 02 Le Tigre - Deceptacon 01 Rinse & Repeat - Noise Inside My Ear Commis next, as some of these songs were in the 'will definitely vote fo it' pack (I had 20 to vote for, these are the next 5) 00 Yard Act - Dark Days 00 ENVYYOU - New Friends 00 Saint Nomad - Nothing To Lose 00 Kalandra - Slow Motion 00 Kid Kapichi - Glitterati 'Őszi ének' will be bottom 5 for sure, but 1) I hope it will find it's 1-2(-3) fans 2) I love it to bits 3) Dalriada is huge in Hungary, it's my duty to educate y'all Fantastic discoveries in my top 10, the only entry I already knew was 'Кобра' We need UP and Nuggets more often!! 1 15 THE HARDKISS - Kobra (feat. MONATIK) 2 15 The Joy Formidable - The Leopard And The Lung 3 12 Manchester Orchestra - The Silence 4 11 One Night Only - Plasticine 5 10 Seven Spires - Succumb 6 10 Starbenders - Cover Me 7 8 Soda Stereo - De Música Ligera 8 8 Dalriada - Őszi Ének [FrankLuck] 9 8 Miss Grit - Impostor 10 6 Kalandra - Slow Motion 11 5 Michigander - Misery 12 4 MiG 15 - Cowboys & Indians 13 2 Le Tigre - Deceptacon 14 1 Kid Kapichi - Glitterati 15 1 Rinse & Repeat - Noise Inside My Ear 16 0 Anna Ternheim - Lovers Dream (feat. Fyfe Dangerfield) [Ghosty.] 17 0 Cassandra Jenkins - Hard Drive 18 0 ENVYYOU - New Friends 19 0 Frozen Night and PrinceWhateverer - Lunar Eclipse III (feat. Holly Frances Royle and Andra Stefan) 20 0 Ian Post - Once And For All 21 0 Joe Wong - Dreams Wash Away 22 0 Karen Zoid - Aeroplane Jane 23 0 King Hannah - Crème Brûlée 24 0 Mute Swan - Life-Like Dream 25 0 Saint Nomad - Nothing To Lose 26 0 Story Untold - i luv that u hate me (feat. Kellin Quinn) 27 0 Told Slant - Family Still 28 0 W O L F C L U B - Just Drive (feat. Summer Haze) 29 0 Yard Act - Dark Days Following our second vote, we actually have a dead tie for first place as two songs have each got a 12 pointer and a 3 pointer - The Joy Formidable taking the 12 here to tie with THE HARDKISS. (Pretend it doesn't say The Joy Formidable are 2nd, I couldn't be bothered to iron out these edge cases). Manchester Orchestra move up to 3rd place, One Night Only hold in 4th and Seven Spires zoom from 0 points to 5th place. Frank lifts 5 songs off 0 points, 14 to go (unfortunately including Ghosty as Frank doesn't repay the favour). |

03/30 | Harry
Miss Grit - Impostor Next up we have Harry with Korean-American singer Miss Grit, with her song that may or may not have been inspired by Among Us. I'm proud of her for spelling the word 'impostor' correctly. This song went down pretty well on Synctube, Harry hasn't always had much luck in the song contests but could this one be a hit for him? From the limited returns we have so far he sits just inside the top 10. QUOTE Hi, Honourable Mentions Karen Zoid - Aeroplane Jane Yard Act - Dark Days Ian Post - Once And For All MiG 15 - Cowboys & Indians Rinse & Repeat - Noise Inside My Ear 12 // THE HARDKISS - Kobra (feat. MONATIK) 10 // Frozen Night and PrinceWhateverer - Lunar Eclipse III (feat. Holly Frances Royle and Andra Stefan) 08 // W O L F C L U B - Just Drive (feat.

Seven Spires move up three places to #2, knocking The Joy Formidable down to 3rd. Frank is continuing to do pretty well early on with Dalriada moving back up to 4th while One Night Only slip to 5th. Another 6 songs get off the 0 point mark leaving 8 yet to score (still including Ghosty). |

I have all the Guillemots and Fyfe Dangerfield albums but wasn't aware until now of that song that Fyfe did with Anna Ternheim.

Glad y'all are enjoying the commentary, I hope it isn't too much to read in 4 minutes xo
~ 04/30 | Severin Kid Kapichi - Glitterati Making a return to Nuggets after entering the first two editions but no others since, it's a welcome back to Severin who has made his comeback with English alternative rock band Kid Kapichi, whose debut album appeared in the UK midweek charts the other week (though fell short of the final chart). So far the song, which also opened up the running order of the contest, has only picked up one point but there's of course plenty of votes to come yet. QUOTE 12 - Yard Act 10 - Joe Wong 08 - Anna Ternheim 07 - Wolfclub 06 - Joy Formidable 05 - Soda Stereo 04 - Seven Spires 03 - Rinse & Repeat 02 - ENVYYOU 01 - Starbenders 1 27 THE HARDKISS - Kobra (feat. MONATIK) 2 21 The Joy Formidable - The Leopard And The Lung 3 20 Seven Spires - Succumb 4 15 W O L F C L U B - Just Drive (feat. Summer Haze) 5 13 Soda Stereo - De Música Ligera 6 13 Dalriada - Őszi Ének [FrankLuck] 7 12 One Night Only - Plasticine 8 12 Joe Wong - Dreams Wash Away 9 12 Manchester Orchestra - The Silence 10 12 Yard Act - Dark Days 11 11 Starbenders - Cover Me 12 10 Frozen Night and PrinceWhateverer - Lunar Eclipse III (feat. Holly Frances Royle and Andra Stefan) 13 8 Anna Ternheim - Lovers Dream (feat. Fyfe Dangerfield) [Ghosty.] 14 8 Miss Grit - Impostor [Harry] 15 7 Story Untold - i luv that u hate me (feat. Kellin Quinn) 16 6 Kalandra - Slow Motion 17 5 Michigander - Misery 18 4 Rinse & Repeat - Noise Inside My Ear 19 4 MiG 15 - Cowboys & Indians 20 4 Saint Nomad - Nothing To Lose 21 3 Told Slant - Family Still 22 2 ENVYYOU - New Friends 23 2 Le Tigre - Deceptacon 24 1 Kid Kapichi - Glitterati [Severin] 25 0 Cassandra Jenkins - Hard Drive 26 0 Ian Post - Once And For All 27 0 Karen Zoid - Aeroplane Jane 28 0 King Hannah - Crème Brûlée 29 0 Mute Swan - Life-Like Dream No points to THE HARDKISS for the first time, but they remain in the lead, 6 points ahead of The Joy Formidable who climb back to 2nd place. Seven Spires slip to 3rd, while W O L F C L U B rise into the top 5 for the first time at #4 as do Soda Stereo up to 5th. Yard Act jump off the 0 point mark in style picking up a 12 here, while 2 others also get off the mark, including at last Ghosty (also getting a medal position) meaning everyone whose entry has been revealed so far is on the board now, only 5 songs yet to score. |

I knew one Miss Grit song before which I liked and this was a good choice too from Harry, think I'll have to check out more.
