July 22, 201113 yr I knew it was you! You probably both will make it, or just Grebo. :o The track has been on my radar for a while I found it on my MW playlist, about a month ago. And I was toying with it to use it for BJSC, I just was in two minds over it, one of those tracks that could be a hit or a miss.
July 22, 201113 yr 40/1 ChrIseland: Akcent - My Passion Not looking good for my BJSC debut! :lol: Fingers crossed I'll still get through to the final though, I really love the song. :wub: If not, there's always next time! Edited July 22, 201113 yr by CHЯIS.
July 22, 201113 yr The track has been on my radar for a while I found it on my MW playlist, about a month ago. And I was toying with it to use it for BJSC, I just was in two minds over it, one of those tracks that could be a hit or a miss. I'm pretty sure I was the first person to chart this here (back in May) and I sure wasn't going to miss out on using Video Games like I did with Agnes Obel. She was my second choice for the contest she won. I had my PM ready and waiting to go as soon as noms opened. Glad it looks like it could do well coz it's a great song.

I still think you were robbed in the last contest. :( I've yet to listen to 'Video Games' but if you're comparing this to Agnes Obel then it must be good. :D
July 22, 201113 yr I'm surprised I haven't been placed bottom in your odd Rich! :lol: I haven't listened to any of the songs yet but I'd guess that Quintessa entry must be INCREDIBLY BJSC-unfriendly to come in below me... :P Also, do you have an MP3 pack for semi-2, I do all my listening on my phone to and from work as I have like no other time... :lol: (actually I'll PM you, probably a better idea... :P :()
July 23, 201113 yr 'Video Games' is absolutely stunning! Beautiful song :wub: And I can definitely see the 'Riverside' comparisons too ^_^
July 23, 201113 yr I will be astonished if Human Life do as well as you're predicting GD! I'm not even totally behind the track myself so god knows why other people would be! :D
July 23, 201113 yr Author I will be astonished if Human Life do as well as you're predicting GD! I'm not even totally behind the track myself so god knows why other people would be! :D You *may* disown me for this comment but the last 30 seconds of it sort of reminded me of ATB, hence it instantly made a positive impression on me!
July 23, 201113 yr You *may* disown me for this comment but the last 30 seconds of it sort of reminded me of ATB, hence it instantly made a positive impression on me! Well that's something I guess, I didn't think I'd ever enter anything that would gain any FSR Rontvia approval! :o
July 23, 201113 yr Author Well that's something I guess, I didn't think I'd ever enter anything that would gain any FSR Rontvia approval! :o I did like your first entry too, it was very very close to getting points to me - I've kept it on my iPod and still listen to it a fair bit! Did I mention that Chart Music were another alias of Le Prix? :o
July 23, 201113 yr WOW :o Did not know that! And I am also loving Human Life, both for the 80s factor, and the ATB wobbly guitar thing :wub:
July 23, 201113 yr I didn't realise that - although I did like the Chart Music track so it does figure it would be akin to something I already liked. I may have to investigate Le Prix more as I've only really gone through the Johan Agebjorn back catalogue.
July 23, 201113 yr WOW :o Did not know that! And I am also loving Human Life, both for the 80s factor, and the ATB wobbly guitar thing :wub: Fab! I did enter it on the basis that people here may like it more than a lot of the other music I listen to... I know it's quite cheap really but I'd rather not turn into one of those countries that enter something to try and prove my superior music taste etc so instead I'm aiming to submit tracks that may suit the tastes of other people in the competition.
July 23, 201113 yr Author WOW :o Did not know that! And I am also loving Human Life, both for the 80s factor, and the ATB wobbly guitar thing :wub: That fact was quite well publicised on Scandipop (and other blogs that wrote about All My Life)! I do love anything that uses the bendy synth sound, I used to have a knob on my old keyboard at home that you could move, sort of like a joystick, which made the 'bending' sound effect, but I don't have it anymore :( I taught myself to be able to play 9PM (Till I Come) complete with bendy effect! My friends were all very impressed :lol: Fab! I did enter it on the basis that people here may like it more than a lot of the other music I listen to...

It's up to you how you approach it! My approach is somewhere in the middle. I practically always send the song that I like the most, but if there are two songs that I like equally then I'll always go with the one that more people are likely to appreciate - not necessarily to get a good result, but so that more people are likely to make a decent discovery. Every now and then though I will just throw something out there which I want people to hear regardless - Example and Caro Emerald being my main two to fall under this category - and look how big they both are now! They may have flopped in BJSC but I was right all along :P
