Word Of Mouth by Metroplane and Bree Runway

My choice would be George Ezra - Paradise, but I would happy with One Kiss, Solo, Do It or Anywhere winning.

Let's Eat Grandma made one of the lists then, hurrah! Yay for Rae Morris as well

cool to see Paradise included, though it might just be there so they have a white guy with guitar song to kick out first

I'd imagine Anywhere should take this prize if there's any justice

'Waking Up Slow' is a good curveball choice! I think 'Make Me Feel' really should've been included.

My heart tells me 'Anywhere' should win it, an undeniable banger.

Thanks Jonjo biggrin.gif I tried to add one straight after I posted the thread but it wouldn't let me.

My winner is "Anywhere" and my other votes in Q2 went to "One Kiss", "Solo", "Waking Up Slow", "Paradise", "Word of Mouth" and "All or Nothing". I know Popjustice himself loves "Do It" but I really really hope "Solo" is the other song in the final two instead of that.

"Falling Into Me" is by FAR the best song there, although I'm going to hedge a bet that it has zero chance of winning sad.gif

(other than that, Rae Morris and George Ezra would be great winners though they're also seemingly no-hopers~)

Anywhere easily has to win, one of my fave songs of the past few years and by far the best pop song here ❤️❤️ I also voted for love lasts forever, solo & waking up slow, the rest I can do without
