I had exactly the same experience with Backseat last month (albeit without the Popjustice approval, or even a mention :mellow:). Shame only about 7 or 8 people properly 'got' it, one of my favourite entries to date :wub:

 

 

yeah

 

shame that it came only #10 despite being on top of Kopecka's odds.

I believe it was actually joint top with, er, Tania Foster :blush: In my defence Tinashe was third!

I had KoS on top, Tania second and I believe Backseat 3rd.

yeah

Odds are hard to do, it's easy to confuse your personal favourites with potential winners, and vice versa, to try and guage which of the songs you really couldn't care for are likely to be liked by everyone else :lol: There are songs high in the current odds that wash over me completely but there are 39 people in this contest, not just 1 :heehee:

also hype machine has a big effect on odds :no: PrOJ were 25/1 and now down to 3/1 :lol:

Naturally, you see everyone else raving about it, it obviously seems more likely that it's going to win/do well :heehee:

you all know i'm gonna win, you just don't wanna ADMIT IT.

I'll give you that we don't want to admit it... :kink:

It's still open to an extent but I really think it's between Skall and Hendinia with Nonsuch, Kopecka, Botanikka with some winning potential and PROJ and Torchwood with some

you all know i'm gonna win, you just don't wanna ADMIT IT.

I actually think you could win it. You've got a good track with some crossover appeal.

I was tempted to put it higher in the odds but I've literally not seen one person talk about it, well until you just then :heehee:

I don't see how more than let's say, 15 people, will vote for Good Times. I honestly don't see it coming Top 5, let alone #1.

:lol: I quite like it.

 

I either adore or loathe Mdice's winners tho so watch it come in 9th or somethin now :lol: :(

150/1 Dulpaen: Nick Cave and The Bad Seeds; Kylie Minogue 'Where The Wild Roses Grow'

 

Basically, more money is being put on a non-Robyn/Diana winner. Land Of Jack get a big increase as I didn't realise it was such a huge European hit that was about to be given a shot over here, maybe have more fans that I first thought.

My top 3 songs are almost exclusively put in the bottom 10. Awesome. :lol:

I'm glad someone still sees me as a contender :lol:

Thanks for the confidence in the odds, makes a nice change to not see myself at the bottom :lol:

:o at so many low predictions for D.O.O.G. Egabbac, one of the better Indie tracks in the contest surely :wub:

Tom's Alternative odds :cheer: As always this is simply how I feel the songs will do it has nothing to do wth which songs I like and isn't really influenced by anyone else's odds.
