WHO might win? questions must be answered
February 24, 201015 yr any predictions I have are in my odds - I think it's a three horse race between Kingdom Of Shadow, Sangria and FSR Rontvia (:kink:) with Kopecka, Angelicland, Numayania and Liechenstaan as strong outsiders. Mdice are my tip for dark horse, I have a feeling that Muchuu will appeal slightly more to the pop crowd than the other indie tracks will. I expect another top ten for it.

February 24, 201015 yr I really hope Freeze's bottom half of the leaderboard prediction doesn't come true for Backseat - it's possibly my favourite song of the year so far :o
February 24, 201015 yr That may be, but unfortunately it doesn't seem like a dead certain hit, imo :( The song has up until now only recieved much love from just a couple of people. And (to me at least) it doesn't have the potential to win. Quite catchy, but too much rap, and no outstanting hooks on it. Backseat might be number 11th in most peoples votes - if the appeal is as heavy as you say. In my opinion though :) Edited February 24, 201015 yr by Freeze

Backseat might be number 11th in most peoples votes - if the appeal is as heavy as you say. In my opinion though :) I guess rap's always a risk on BJSC, solo female pop is always the favoured genre here - not that I don't enjoy it of course, I vote for a lot of it :lol: Having said that, I don't think that the rap is that long in the context of the full track. I don't know how much appeal it will have exactly seeing as it's not exactly like the 'typical' BJSC entry, I just know that I personally love it and hope that others can see the appeal in it that I see.

I guess you're right about this. It sort of bumps along, instead of getting stuck in the rap sequences. Although the appeal is quite uncertain, but I seem to be alone in this anyway ( :lol: ) so we'll just have to wait and see. And I meant Flop as in it not being a possible winner btw. That could still be top 15, at least, perhaps. Edited February 24, 201015 yr by Freeze

That could still be top 15, at least, perhaps. I'm not going to be distraught if it doesn't finish inside the top ten, last time I tried rap it finished 25th :rofl: Maybe if it finishes in the bottom five then I'll be a bit distraught :heehee: But I do love these months when I send something completely different which is unpredictable how it will do...I mean there are a hundred Caroline Jonsson's and Shackles' type acts that I could find and send every month but I'd be incredibly bored (and typecast) :lol: I'd rather come top 3 or bottom five with a risk than 14th with some generic Scandi-pop song. *Cue next month when I send a generic Scandi-pop song and it finishes 14th :kink:*
February 24, 201015 yr F = bottom 15, H = top 15 :P Don't be rude, Jerick. My definition of hit doesn't necessarily mean top 15. If a song is predicted to be a winner by ,most people, and it finishes 14th, that's a flop. This is for Backseat only, perhaps -_-

February 24, 201015 yr I also hope I don't flop, Freeze and Nick :snif: Will do this soon but i'm sure it was said that we would try and avoid hype?
February 24, 201015 yr Author I also hope I don't flop, Freeze and Nick :snif: Will do this soon but i'm sure it was said that we would try and avoid hype? Aaron and I concluded in a private discussion that the contest becomes pretty boring without any discussion - I believe Rich made this point when I proposed to scrap the odds thread for XIII when I hosted :lol: Nay, if the contest is to be remembered well as it deserves, there ought to be discussion :o

February 25, 201015 yr How was that rude? :mellow: It was subtle. You didn't HAVE to point it out and/or try to correct me etc -_- Edited February 25, 201015 yr by Freeze
