God Kveld! Vfelkømmen til Morpeth Cove!! For not the first time we find ourselves back in the sprawling metropolis that is Ashton's capital city. Morpeth Cove, tucked away around the Bay of Morpeth on Ashton's south coast, is the home of the 4th of the 4 Deltävlingar of the 2017 Buzzjackfestivalen contest.

11 songs are fighting it out to be one of the 5 tracks to make it through to the next stages. The winner and runner up of the heat will go 'Direkt til Morpeth' and be guaranteed a place in the grand final back here in Morpeth Cove. The 3rd, 4th and 5th placed tracks will head to Bignia-Zaragovina for the 'Andra Chansen' round for a second chance at a spot in the final.

Couple of minor points before we unleash the music:

• You may not vote for your own entry
• You may only vote in the heat you have been drawn into. Anyone is allowed to vote in the later rounds
• Failure to vote by the deadline will result in a 15 point deduction
• No late votes will be accepted
• PM your votes to Silas (me!)

You have until 23:59 BST on Wednesday June 7th to vote! In classic Melodifestivalen style, points are allocated to your top 6. Please score your faves as follows:

12 poäng - Absolute Fave
10 poäng
08 poäng
06 poäng
04 poäng
02 poäng - 6th Fave

Posted by: Jonjo 2nd June 2017, 06:25 PM

As if 'Hello Bitches' didn't get vetoed!

Excited for this though.

OH MY GOD @ CL

Posted by: Cameron 2nd June 2017, 06:34 PM

CL is over 3 mins tho

Posted by: LexC♀ 2nd June 2017, 06:47 PM

Adonia stole what was gonna be my next main contest entry and Lotunia got to my confirmation first. THOSE BITCHES!

2:58

Posted by: Jonjo 2nd June 2017, 06:55 PM

It is 2:58 on Spotify. The video has a couple of extra bits!

Posted by: dandy* 2nd June 2017, 06:56 PM

To be fair to Cameron, the one in the opening post is over 3 mins - I can see why...

Who is hosting Heat #2 by the way? Tardiness! Plus I want to know who else is in it...

Posted by: Cameron 2nd June 2017, 07:01 PM

Mess, it was opening post one I listened to! Scrap that comment

Posted by: Silas 2nd June 2017, 07:11 PM

We did check the length of everything so as far as I'm aware nothing should have slipped through, although a few of the videos are longer than 3mins we did say that was fine provided the actual song was 3mins or less.

Yu is!

Posted by: Iz~ 2nd June 2017, 07:24 PM

Well, I seem to have avoided at least some of the novelty in my heat. Maybe that'll help, maybe it won't and I'll spend another BJFest pretending it doesn't exist. But I'll be SAFE. Strong and safe.

Posted by: Addy K!ng 2nd June 2017, 07:49 PM

Jesus christ i didn't know we can actually go down the cheap route for this...feels like all these big names will advance instead of unknown ones!!!

Posted by: Willy's Tears 2nd June 2017, 07:54 PM

Posted by: Oricon 2nd June 2017, 10:40 PM

The audio MP3 I've sent is only 2:58 as well. The video has just added intro to the song (but it's not officially part of the song)

Posted by: Silas 7th June 2017, 10:44 PM

17 minutes RoAdonia




(Trav, need your amended vote too please some time before 5pm UK time tomorrow ta)

Posted by: Brer 7th June 2017, 10:47 PM

Republic of Adonia not voting would throw a bit of a spanner in since Brooke Candy seemed like one of the most obvious qualifiers... (probably has a good shot of making it to AC even after a deduction)

Posted by: *Tim 7th June 2017, 10:52 PM

Omg cant he be excluded anyway for not voting. Thats really messy in a contest like this

Posted by: Silas 7th June 2017, 10:56 PM

Late votes will not be accepted.


Excuses can be forwarded to:

Posted by: Silas 7th June 2017, 11:17 PM

Voting Closed. No RoAdonia votes.


Surprise in store for the results tomorrow. 7pm x

Posted by: Jonjo 7th June 2017, 11:18 PM

I better qualify!

I'm falling in love with my song the more I listen to it!

Posted by: Math ☂ 8th June 2017, 12:17 AM

o great I overslept x

Posted by: danG 8th June 2017, 11:50 AM

Brooke Candy should go to AC at least despite the deduction, surely?

It better.
