Hard to call really, these look vastly different to my odds as I've been listening to the songs all afternoon...

:o @ KoS actually being included in one of the questions.

 

:huh: @ Rich's prediction for KoS

I just haven't noticed any discussion/hype/talk about it. Not that I dislike the song at all, quite the opposite. Somebody has to be predicted bottom five after all though :drama:

Then I insist we must hype it and talk about it now!

 

japayork is a 22-year old musician and graphic designer currently based in london but previously residing between japan and new york (hence the name). i have been an instant fan of his catchy synth-pop productions ever since i first heard him and finally managed to get ahold of a track for posting, so about time you fall in love with him too - and i've got a feeling that won't be too difficult, especially for the ladies around!
DiscoDust

 

Japayork is someone you will want to pay attention to. Not only is he a talented artist, but he also make delicious pop that is a bit easy to fall in love with
BigStereo

 

Lush, layered synth tunes and personal lyrics are sure to strike a chord with most people who hear them.

hype hype hype

 

Now go away and listen to the track more carefully but this time listen to it better :P

It sounds like your previous entry for me, but it's not that catchy unfortunately :(

Come On Over was fantastic and incredibly individual thanks to Tinashe's voice and the xylophone :wub: I guess this song just blends in more...I can see it picking up lots of 3's and 4's but I'm not sure it will be racking up the 8's and above like Come On Over did...

 

Who knows though, this contest has proved rather unpredictable so far, from Robyn going from favourite to not so much, practically all of semi 2's universally agreed DNQ's going through to the final. Perhaps KoS can pull off a shock win here?

lol Tyron.

 

nothing against Sangria (FYI I have confirmed Sun in 21 until I came back drunk and changed it to Sarah Connor :drama:) but somehow I don't see it finishing inside top 10.

I think people are getting a bit overconfident about Sun seeing as it got through the semis with a deduction, but it doesn't strike me as the sort of thing that will come top 5 in the final :o I'll gladly eat my words if it does though, it's a decent pop song plus I said the same about ADHD when Sangria sent that and look what happened there!
I see it being a definite top 10 finisher :o It sounds like the sort of thing Gwen could've come back with last year, provided she ditched the obsession with old musicals...

Plus it has been #1 in America...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

...on the dance chart :lol:

I would probably faint if Hide Me gets top 5 :o

 

Personally, it is my fave ever entry and that would be brilliant :wub:

It's probably my favourite ever entry of yours too :o The Golden Filter are love :wub: Have you listened to Voluspa yet?

01:: Skall: Lo-Fi-Fnk 'Marchin' In'

 

What on earth are you basing this on? I agree it has a good flewency to it, and a somewhat but quite catchy rythm, almost sound of arrows like, but the song is too long and therefore too slow to pass on a major appeal with the pop voters. And you definitely need points from them to win the whole thing! Besides, there has been more hype about Vita and Roll Deep (including Diana and Robyn). Though I guess if it is the "indie" favorite it could get higher than both Vita and Roll Deep as those votes will even each other out. Top 10, probably, but winning? If you're also trying to look at the fact that Delphic won and that this contest is trying to follow that pattern of sound somehow, I'd say Stanfour has a greater appeal of/in sound than Lo-Fi-Fnk. Skall won't win this, no way..

How are you so sure Freeze? :P

 

I think Skall have the biggest chance for the win :)
