April 3, 201213 yr DNQ -_- Just some advice - If you post things of this ilk then that acts kinda old, godsake you know about how bad I am at these things!

April 4, 201213 yr Predictions then; Semi 1: Tinnmark - Bertine Zetlitz; SamSaya - Electric Feet Bignia-Zaragovina - Katharine McPhee - Touch Me Kopečka - Catcall - The World Is Ours Umiiruka - Baron Von Luxxury ft.

Mike Noyce - Lay Your Cards Out Palmyra - Daughter - Youth This month is going to be a bloodbath of EPIC proportions, all I've done here is ripped out the top 14 from each semi that are highest in my odds but that would mean DNQ's for former big hitters Eric Saade and Little Boots as well as two or three other songs that are easily strong enough to qualify from Semi 1. And then in Semi 2 there are 3 or 4 songs I've got down as DNQ's which will probably qualify thanks to the mass indie contingent in the semi. I'll stick to my guns anyway but I expect I'll be more wrong than I've ever been before with this month's predictions!
April 4, 201213 yr 100% so far for Ivy. Good news, although Jessie had the same rate contest and failed to qualify. :drama:
April 6, 201213 yr Hmm... I've had a good listen through... and this is where I think this is going (I've also written a bit of an essay here, blame being bored late at night). Tinnmark - Bertine Zetlitz; SamSaya - Electric Feet Bignia-Zaragovina - Katharine McPhee - Touch Me Kopečka - Catcall - The World Is Ours Umiiruka - Baron Von Luxxury ft. Little Boots - That Disco Beat Unovia - Eva Simons - I Don't Like You Numayania - Dragonette - Let It Go Fljótavík - Vanbot - Lost Without You Lake Thermwoods - Mary Gauthier - The Foundling Kylienips - Morgan Page feat. Tegan & Sara - Bodywork Terra Avium - Bastille - Overjoyed Greenfroze - Radio Ink - Who We Are Tonight Scherzland - Sebastian Ingrosso & Alesso ft. Ryan Tedder - Calling (Lose My Mind) Keypopian Republic - Co-Ed - Too Late Batidas - Ida - I Can Be Syndare - Laura Welsh - Ghosts Ojnoj - My Name Is Kay - 'Stranger' (feat. Pusha T) Hendinia - Electric Lady Lab - Taking Off Sangria - Eric Saade - Fingerprints Zechonia - Lindsey Stirling - Crystalize Vojvodina - Darkness Falls - The Void Yuxhaaq - Paulina Rubio - Boys Will Be Boys Bellamia - Greyson Chance - Running Away Land Of Jack - Robin - Frontside Ollie B.a.N.G. - Siobhan Dillon - Powerless For the qualifiers Yuxhaaq, Kylienips, Unovia, Fljótavík, Numayania, Tinnmark, Batidas, and Kopecka are the certainties for me in that order, beyond that it gets difficult. Syndare will likely scrape through and then do better in the final, same with Vojvodina as they rely on a few crossover points from a few pop countries and also the few indie countries here. Ojnoj, Hendinia and Scherzland could be any of the pop tracks on the same level really, but I think they're more likely push through than their compatriots. Umiiruka will have to rely on the Little Boots effect, but it could be enough to get them through. By the same reasoning, Sangria would be 15th in my predictions, but I'm not sure if it'd get enough votes to go through. B.a.N.G, Bignia-Zaragovina and Greenfroze could make it through on a lucky day, but this semi is just TOO pop-oriented for the likes of Lake Thermwoods and Terra Avium to stand a chance really. :( Keypopian Republic is a difficult one but I'm gonna go with it because recently, the non-Daehun K-Pop song hasn't done too well and I'm not sure Co-Ed is the one to change that. I think Zechonia could have done rather well in semi-2, most of the big dance countries are there too as well as the majority of the indie contingent, which should have got its brand of haunting-stringy-dubstep through nicely. Finally Bellamia and Land Of Jack, I'm just not sure who they are going to appeal to. Bellamia being a ballad... if Unfriend You couldn't get through I doubt this will. Frontside Ollie is a song I never expected to see in BJSC if I'm honest, and I don't think it'll do anything. Semi 2: Daehun - Brown Eyed Girls - Abracadabra Ramrynia - Emma Lewin - No Excuses Allecian - Bright Light Bright Light - Waiting For The Feeling ChrIseland - Sisse Marie - Kill For Your Love Sandebörg - Norlie & KKV - Tröjan Du Hatar Ingermanlandia - Orbital - New France Isconia - Regina Spektor - All The Rowboats Kluminican Republic - DJ Andi feat. Stella - Happiness Utopia - Grimes - Genesis UnoShake - Shane Harper - Rocketship Caerfyrddia - Susanne Sundfør - White Foxes Farahtyn - Lucie Silvas - Reset FSR Rontvia - Rae Morris - Don't Go Séyetana - Shell Perris - Where Is My Happy Ending? Ashton - Nause - Mellow Mdice - Beach House - Myth Danaelanda - Christina Walls - Carry Me To Paradise Eledan - iamamiwhoami - play Espen - Ivy Quainoo - Do You Like What You See? Letland - Garçon Garçon - Save Our Sould Budtar - Shake It Up - Something To Dance For/TYYLXOX PRoJ - Antoine Clamaran ft. Soraya - Feeling You Persephonia - Poliça feat. Mike Noyce - Lay Your Cards Out Palmyra - Daughter - Youth Doing the same thing I did here, certain qualifiers being Ramrynia, Eledan (I can see this receiving a HUGE amount of votes actually), Isconia, FSR Rontvia, Utopia, Allecian and tentatively me, although I'm always wary, I think I'll have enough support from this semi myself. Caerfryddia, Persephonia and possibly Ingermanlandia could get through from concentrated indie votes. Espen aren't so indie this time, but I'm inclined to think they'll still get back to the final. Concentrated dance votes will probably do the same for Danaelanda, Ashton and PRoJ, probably the only time I'll be able to say this, as it seems most of the dance fans, Yuxhaaq aside, have been lodged in here. Kluminican Republic is very hard to call, I think, it should get enough votes to see it safely through normally, but with Klumzee possibly not semi-voting (due to being away) it could be in trouble. If he does vote, it will probably be through but I'm still not sure. For the non-qualifiers, Mdice might be a little subtle, although in an indie semi it could easily knock out one of the borderline ones, same with Palmyra, I'm inclined to think Daughter might have more chance than Beach House though. Daehun is hard again because it's a fine example of a K-Pop song and would get through in the other semi I think. I'm just really uncertain here. ChrIsland could be an example of a pop song failing here, I'm not sure if it's got enough fans to get through. Farahtyn also, FSR Rontvia will be stealing votes from it, it could make it through if its lucky though. And, sorry guys, but I think Sandeborg, Letland, Budtar and UnoShake have no chance at all, not in this bloodbath. I wouldn't mind it if these results went a whole lot differently, but that's my objective side showing, as much as it can. Like Rich, I expect to be very wrong.
April 6, 201213 yr Author I like the essay/commentary. Props given for the effort :o. I reckon the Eledan track is going to fare well and might be in contender to win this contest. There's just something about it that makes the track strikingly unique amongst the other tracks. Edited April 6, 201213 yr by Oricon
April 7, 201213 yr All predicting a qualification for Emma so far :cheer: Hopefully we'll get some more predictions (and odds) tomorrow! We seem to not have as many as usual at the moment! I suppose I might have a go at some predictions again at some point :)
April 8, 201213 yr Now that all songs have been broadcast on BJSCRadieau.ny and Jacquajatz FM (the most listened commercial station in Numayania) these are our predictions for the semis... Semi 1: Tinnmark - Bertine Zetlitz; SamSaya - Electric Feet Bignia-Zaragovina - Katharine McPhee - Touch Me Kopečka - Catcall - The World Is Ours Umiiruka - Baron Von Luxxury ft. Little Boots - That Disco Beat Unovia - Eva Simons - I Don't Like You :/ Numayania - Dragonette - Let It Go Fljótavík - Vanbot - Lost Without You Lake Thermwoods - Mary Gauthier - The Foundling Kylienips - Morgan Page feat.

Ryan Tedder - Calling (Lose My Mind) Keypopian Republic - Co-Ed - Too Late Batidas - Ida - I Can Be Syndare - Laura Welsh - Ghosts :( Ojnoj - My Name Is Kay - 'Stranger' (feat. Pusha T) Hendinia - Electric Lady Lab - Taking Off Sangria - Eric Saade - Fingerprints :( Zechonia - Lindsey Stirling - Crystalize Vojvodina - Darkness Falls - The Void Yuxhaaq - Paulina Rubio - Boys Will Be Boys Bellamia - Greyson Chance - Running Away Land Of Jack - Robin - Frontside Ollie B.a.N.G. - Siobhan Dillon - Powerless Fairly easy to call, though I can see there being a few surprises here and there, I can see Ojnoj and Batidas as surprise DNQs, possibly at the expense of Unovia and Bellamia, but it's a small, maybe 10% chance, though I don't think these are all 100% correct :lol: Semi 2: Daehun - Brown Eyed Girls - Abracadabra :( Ramrynia - Emma Lewin - No Excuses Allecian - Bright Light Bright Light - Waiting For The Feeling ChrIseland - Sisse Marie - Kill For Your Love Sandebörg - Norlie & KKV - Tröjan Du Hatar Ingermanlandia - Orbital - New France Isconia - Regina Spektor - All The Rowboats Kluminican Republic - DJ Andi feat.

Letland - Garçon Garçon - Save Our Souls Budtar - Shake It Up - Something To Dance For/TYYLXOX PRoJ - Antoine Clamaran ft. Soraya - Feeling You :snif: Persephonia - Poliça feat. Mike Noyce - Lay Your Cards Out Palmyra - Daughter - Youth Harder to call than SF1. I was going to put Ashton as a DNQ in SF2 at first, but on reflection I think PRoJ is likely to have less crossover appeal with the indie voters, as much as it tears me up to say so :( Budtar actually sent a half decent song this month (well, half of one) but it's not going anywhere near the final given the other voters within... Rich is right, this will be a total bloodbath :snif:
April 8, 201213 yr Some controversial DNQ's, I reckon Batidas and Syndare will qualify in the top few of their semi, I certainly wouldn't have thought that either are likely to DNQ :o
April 8, 201213 yr I wouldn't be shocked with a DNQ for me (probably just me being pessimistic as usual), there's not a lot of hype at all around Eva and admittedly the song isn't anywhere near as strong as Silly Boy.
April 8, 201213 yr Nah, I reckon you're certain to qualify Liam, you're in the right kind of semi, it's stronger than Silly Boy for me, and it just seems like it should be lapped up, and should be well within the safe zone. Then again, I was as sure of this with Anjulie too, so... :(
April 8, 201213 yr Fairly easy to call, though I can see there being a few surprises here and there, I can see Ojnoj and Batidas as surprise DNQs, possibly at the expense of Unovia and Bellamia, but it's a small, maybe 10% chance, though I don't think these are all 100% correct :lol: Ah, a little bit of hope in these predictions. :P Now I REALLY hope Running Away can be the darkhorse that qualifies despite no-one predicting it...
April 8, 201213 yr Semi 1: Tinnmark - Bertine Zetlitz; SamSaya - Electric Feet Bignia-Zaragovina - Katharine McPhee - Touch Me Kopečka - Catcall - The World Is Ours Umiiruka - Baron Von Luxxury ft.

Mike Noyce - Lay Your Cards Out Palmyra - Daughter - Youth A good few through that may actually be on the cusp of qualifying in reality, but still have a big chance of winning - wrong semi effect (I usually hate using that as an excuse) could also come into play - Sisse Marie for example could ease through but in semi 2 I think she will struggle. Definitely going to be an interesting month anyway!
