Wow I could recognise a few of them here. Really pleased to see a good number of foreign language songs in this contest so I'm expecting a lot from these entries!

Charlotte Sands - Dress finished 3rd in the BJSC so it's ineligible for this.

This contest is all about discovering the best pop music. For those who don’t know, we are nowhere near as harsh with vetoes as other contests on the site. Wardy, you have nothing to apologise for. ☺️

Sorry, I only pointed it out because this is what it said on the confirmation thread:

" 6. The song must not have been a top 20 hit in another song contest on the site. However, a song that has previously been entered into these contests may still be vetoed."

You're quite right Rollo, and I took the instructions from the template I used in 2020 when I hosted this same contest, I didn't even think to check if rules had changed since that time, despite participating in other PFSC contests since that time.

As long as everyone else is ok with this song being included in this contest, and as Cameron has given the ok, I trust this will be ok for this, but in the future if I am ever called upon to host again, I will make sure that rule is done away with.

Thank you though for keeping me on my toes! smile.gif

Noticed that the deadline is Sat 22nd when the 22nd is a Sunday. Just thought I'd mention as it'll confuse others and I only just noticed it a few minutes ago myself!

Thanks for that Rob, updated now but yes to confirm Saturday is the deadline (one week from voting window opening as standard).

Check back again soon for details of the listenthrough this week, likely to be Tuesday or Wednesday evening.

Well I used the version from the video link shared by that participant, so the YouTube link you see is the one they sent. If this means I need to alter the Spotify song please can they let me know.

I've heard like 3 of these songs (2 if we don't include my entry) lmao. I've heard of a couple more artists, but I don't think I've heard the songs that have been sent by them. Majority of these will be discoveries to most people I assume. If they're not, great for you for being on top of and discovering new music I guess lmao. (It's not like I've even heard of the tracks either - sometimes you don't need to know the artist or song to know if it's "cheap")
