March 5, 201015 yr I'm outraged that Stay The Night and Snalla Snalla are up for worst entry of the year :o
March 5, 201015 yr Author Only one nomination :lol: If I know Tinnmark right we are so unlucky country we might get it :P At least you're not nominated for Worst Entry :/
March 5, 201015 yr You can not vote for any of your own entries ;o Takes away about 50% of my options in some categories then :rofl: I can't believe I have 4 nominations in Best Discovery of 2009 :o pleasantly surprised to see that none of my entries were overwhelmingly hated enough to make it to the worst/most overrated entry categories. I'm a little bit sad that my two favourite songs of last year are apparently two of the most overrated entries of 2009 :( Obviously it was me doing the overrating :lol: If Stay The Night is really that hated - to the point that it got absolutely nowhere in the best of, I can't fathom how it came 2nd in the first place :lol:
March 5, 201015 yr Well, I could at least win something - I have to admit, Set Yourself On Fire was pretty awful :lol:
March 5, 201015 yr Alcazar was always going to get a backlash after it did well :lol: Nobody expected they'd all simultaneously have it as a guilty pleasure! :o
March 5, 201015 yr Author I meant to ask before I actually posted it, but what the f*** is TMBP? :lol: Oh and the not voting for your entries also applies to not voting for your own country :kink:
March 5, 201015 yr Voted. Sums up BJSC 2009 & early 2010 for Nonsuch = no nominations in either Best or Worst categories = mid table mediocrity.
March 5, 201015 yr TMBP is This Must Be Pop, a blog where I used to find a number of my entries from (as did other people). She barely ever updates it anymore though, it's become as good as useless for new music discoveries :(
March 5, 201015 yr Good set of nominations overall. I'd question the Sound Of Arrows being in the 'most inspired entry' category as (whether or not it was, I forget) it could easily have been one of those "I like this Popjustice song of the day, it shall be my BJSC entry" types. It makes me laugh how "Tik Tok" was once a discovery. Best entry though? :puke2: I'm just gonna vote now. ^_^
March 5, 201015 yr I meant to ask before I actually posted it, but what the f*** is TMBP? :lol: Tyron's Moorish Birthday Party :D
March 5, 201015 yr This still hanst been ? :lol: I though i'd missed them or something haha! Anyway Lorikeet FTW in both nominated categories
March 5, 201015 yr Good set of nominations overall. I'd question the Sound Of Arrows being in the 'most inspired entry' category as (whether or not it was, I forget) it could easily have been one of those "I like this Popjustice song of the day, it shall be my BJSC entry" types. It makes me laugh how "Tik Tok" was once a discovery. Best entry though? :puke2: I'm just gonna vote now. ^_^ I did indeed discover it on Popjustice, they were giving it away as a free MP3 at some point, I downloaded it, loved it and decided to send it - nothing inspired about the way I found the enty, but maybe a male act was a huge shock from Rontvia at the time (even though I'd sent Vincent the previous month) :lol: I definitely regard Robots In Love and I'm Going For Your Brother as being more inspired, but obviously the former at least was always going to be more BuzzJack friendly than M.A.G.I.C. I'm not sure that I ever felt that I'm Going For Your Brother was going to do very well at all...I thought it was a bit too different and niche.
