Ooh, a rare ROTD 0 pointer. Those really don't happen often.

With five of last year's finalists bumping up from 26-30, we've had a few shock eliminations here, My Delirium I definitely remember had two good qualification runs last time and the likes of Wearing My Rolex and Denial are fairly regular faces around here too. But what have they been replaced with?

Well, we have Live Your Life, In My Arms, No Air, Mercy, Violet Hill, the normal 2008 crowd, but there are a few new faces. Despite it getting nominated like 5 times this year, Break The Ice wasn't nominated last year and so is technically a 'new' finalist, though I'm sure it's just an old one repackaged, you know, like Brit herself. Vampire Weekend is this category too, in fact I recall when Vampire Weekend was a safe AQ for 2008 before falling out in 2015 and being left off the pitch last year.

I'm not certain about Jennifer Hudson and Pussycat Dolls but they are also through and looking fresh for the final. And Alphabeat, they normally qualify with Boyfriend but that's already in this time so it's 10,000 Nights' turn to shake off its status as the third Alphabeat song and join its compatriots in the final. Ting Tings with that other song they're known for (That's Not My Name being already in) I think might have been through once but it's certainly no sad sight to see it back.

Finally, there are two qualifiers I'm pretty sure have never been up this high before and I don't know how they've done it but a brilliant welcome to White Winter Hymnal and Spiralling, my 25 and Keane's best ever song no less. They don't normally come anywhere near this high so I'm shook, but incredibly pleased. You did good, guys biggrin.gif

1/6 of my nominations through so far with Coldplay - 'Violet Hill' making the cut! Also, shocked but ecstatic to see 'White Winter Hymnal' doing so well ohmy.gif what a gorgeous song. So here for 'Spiralling' advancing as well.
