April 23, 201114 yr I MIGHT have let personal feeling creep into this a bit, not that the top 10 is my vote or anything (at least a couple of the bottom 10 are my faves), but Lovelife is EPIC :wub: As for Katzerjammer, sorry Martin, but I don't really see the appeal (ditto a couple of the other big hypes of this contest...)
April 23, 201114 yr There's no way Riverside will crash and burn. Even if it doesn't win, if it fails to reach the top ten, I'll finally send that Slovakian rock track to the next contest :P I may be biased as I've fallen head over heels in love with the song in the last couple of weeks, but I don't see how it can fail - it stands right out, it's absolutely stunning, should technically appeal to both the pop and indie voters and would generally be a fantastic winner. I hope this comment doesn't bring the haters out of the woodwork, but usually when a song's had hype building up, people crawl out to say 'oh, I hate that, why's it the favourite', but I've only seen good feedback for the song thus far. actually I don't feel Riverside hype :kink: but I am the one who rarely give points to the winning song, unless you are Rontvia :P
April 23, 201114 yr I should have said unless you are Numayania as well but your winning song got nothing from me, because before I was cheap songs gets nothing from me :kink:
April 23, 201114 yr Alphabeat wasn't THAT cheap... or at least it wasn't a big hit when released :( By the way, last contest was the first time I had had two consecutive top 10 hits since XX :o
April 23, 201114 yr it was cheap in term of anticipation...BJ is very Alphabeat friendly and maybe that's why I thought it was cheap.
April 23, 201114 yr Author Strangely, Boyfriend just came on shuffle whilst reading this thread :lol: You should have won with either or both of Le Kid or Alcazar (grrr at Silly Boy winning by a landslide!) and Music Everywhere should have won XX but whatever :P I pretty much always give (usually high) points to the winning song, I guess I'm in tune with the majority of the voters :lol: In fact, looking at the list of winners, I've only not given points to 8 of them - 6 of them were mine (:lol:) and the other two were Mdice winners - Right Here (Departed), and Shark In The Water. Silly Boy I gave 3 points, and that was 3 points too many, I guess I was caught up in the hype, but admittedly not as much as most people were!
April 23, 201114 yr actually I don't feel Riverside hype :kink: Someone who hasn't been down by the Riverside. :cry:
April 23, 201114 yr Someone who hasn't been down by the Riverside. :cry: LOL you shouldn't be that worried. winners = Addy not impressed :P
April 23, 201114 yr I'm feeling the hype for all but one of the faves! :wub: I gave points to all of the top 3 last contest, which was my first contest, I'm not sure that'll be the case this time - there were so many brilliant songs some songs I expect to finish top 5 and love missed out :( :drama:
April 23, 201114 yr BOO! Hoping to be the dark horse again! Nobody (bar one or two) predicted me to go through to the final. Here's hoping I do better than the odds suggest. But these are odds to WIN, and I can't see anything other than Molly winning tbh. (Not even 'Riverside' - WHERE'S THE HYPE COME FROM?! :mellow: It's a nice enough song, don't get me wrong, but to win? I'm failing to see that personally)

Stick & Stones in the other hand :wub:...it was on my hitlist for the last contest but in the end went with Dev and Cataracs. I hope you will finish top 3 :wub:
April 23, 201114 yr Low for Molly Sanden and Katzenjammer there :o And very generous for Kate Ryan seeing as the EPIC Ella Elle L'a couldn't even reach the top five when it was entered! Very much THIS. I love the Kate Ryan track entered, but Ella Elle L'a is nothing short of inf***ingcredible. If the better track fails to hit the top5 the follow up usually does too. BOO! Hoping to be the dark horse again! Nobody (bar one or two) predicted me to go through to the final. Here's hoping I do better than the odds suggest. But these are odds to WIN, and I can't see anything other than Molly winning tbh. (Not even 'Riverside' - WHERE'S THE HYPE COME FROM?! :mellow: It's a nice enough song, don't get me wrong, but to win? I'm failing to see that personally) :wub: I too don't see the hype, nor do i see the hype for this Nattravn track [or however it's spelt] and i don't think Kopecka is a winner either.
April 23, 201114 yr I don't see the Riverside hype either. My first thought for winning would be Kopecka, but I wouldn't be surprised with Ashton winning (I'm just unsure as to whether many people will think this track is as good as Molly's winner). Ojnoj might be slightly under-rated, but I might just be thinking that because I really like it :unsure:
April 23, 201114 yr I do think there's a lot of odd hype surrounding this contest. None of the hyped songs strike me as winners. Edited April 23, 201114 yr by Sabrewulf
April 23, 201114 yr I do think there's a lot of odd hype surrounding this contest. None of the hyped songs strike me as winners. I can see a lot of block voting taking place in BJSC XXXIII. :heehee: Batidas is like Luxembourg, surrounded by bigger BJSC countries like Ashton, Caerfyrddia, FSR Rontvia and Numayania. ^_^
April 23, 201114 yr Seeing as everyone else is saying the songs they don't see the hype for, I really don't see the love for Natteravn :mellow: Plenty of songs are much better! And I totally agree Sticks N Stones is underrated! :wub:
April 23, 201114 yr As for Katzerjammer, sorry Martin, but I don't really see the appeal :cry: . That's a shame, but I guess it can be an acquired taste. If you get the chance to see them live though, I'd definitely recommend it. Apart from maybe Eurovision, I doubt any concert I go to in the future will top it. Utterly brilliant :wub:
