March 27, 201213 yr If the person you entered happens to be a record breaking former winner, it's because the hype around the track you've entered is absolutely zero. So my suspicions about Liam's track WERE correct! :o
March 27, 201213 yr If the person you entered happens to be a record breaking former winner, it's because the hype around the track you've entered is absolutely zero. It is that yes :P True, I think I just get too paranoid when it comes to veto'ing, I could send an obscure Icelandic indie track and still be worried it'll be veto'd!
March 27, 201213 yr Oh I hope not. :( It's the most decent track I've discovered over these last 7 days. My back up is also a track I like but it's a guaranteed DNQ - I just can't imagine many Buzzjackers liking it. :( I can't see you being one of the veto's we just sent to Addy. I'll say who after Addy has been able to PM those affected.
March 27, 201213 yr It is that yes :P True, I think I just get too paranoid when it comes to veto'ing, I could send an obscure Icelandic indie track and still be worried it'll be veto'd! She's utterly diabolical and on Ashton's 'Shoot upon Sight' list but not veto worthy.
March 27, 201213 yr Author I can't see you being one of the veto's we just sent to Addy. I'll say who after Addy has been able to PM those affected. PM's sent :D
March 27, 201213 yr PM's sent :D Ta! In that case our veto's thus far looks like so: Kerli - Zero Gravity Ricki-Lee - Do It Like That Neon Hitch - Fuck U Betta Rita Ora - Party & Bullshit Molly Sandén - Spread A Little Light (You really thought you were getting this past Ashton? Really?)
March 27, 201213 yr Lol someone actually tried to enter Rita Ora and Neon Hitch?! Also I really should be more subtle/less predictable :P
March 27, 201213 yr A Molly Sandén album track got vetoed? Er, you do realise you're her only loon right Phil?
March 27, 201213 yr I'm quite baffled with Molly's 6 month old track getting vetoed as well... She didn't even win by a huge margin.
March 27, 201213 yr A Molly Sandén album track got vetoed? Er, you do realise you're her only loon right Phil? 1 it was a single. 2 it was a unanimous decision, all of these were. 3 her fanbase has significantly increased post MF from the just me that it was prior to MF. 4 if this was her Swedish stuff then it'd probably have sailed through but her English stuff has become rather popular post-WAIC.
March 27, 201213 yr Er...has her English stuff really increased in popularity? I don't see how you'd have any way of knowing that given she doesn't even really have a thread or anything on here. I think the people doing the vetoing are just a bit jaded on this decision by all four of them following Melodifestivalen. Barely anyone who takes part in this will be familiar with that Molly Sandén track, and it's not exactly about to blow up. I'd hazard a guess that out of those who follow MF who also take part in BJSC you could probably count the number of people who've explored Molly's stuff as a result of Why Am I Crying on one hand, if that. Don't get me wrong, I think all the other veto decisions are sound but that one strikes me as kind of unneeded.
March 27, 201213 yr I obviously really liked Why Am I Crying? - but I can't say it made me want to explore her rest, so I haven't heard that song. So, in reply to earlier, no Phil, I didn't send Molly :kink: See, inspired I tell you! Edited March 27, 201213 yr by ROBOT

Don't get me wrong, I think all the other veto decisions are sound but that one strikes me as kind of unneeded. As with literally EVERY other month we are not changing any of our decisions. We felt it was necessary that the track be vetoed and to be blunt, that's all that matters when it comes to vetoing.
March 27, 201213 yr As with literally EVERY other month we are not changing any of our decisions. We felt it was necessary that the track be vetoed and to be blunt, that's all that matters when it comes to vetoing. Er, surely what matters when it comes to the veto is that it prevents tracks the majority of people are likely to come across anyway (either in the future or as a result of current hype) and which are therefore subject to an unfair advantage from being entered? If the reasoning the moderators applied when they came to the decision that that was the case is shown to be wrong then what is the point of holding the veto for that track other than just because you can? It's no argument to say that what matters is that certain people have taken the decision. The argument should be that the reasoning for those people taking that decision holds. (And for the matter that decisions have never been changed, I can think of at least one example to my mind where a veto's been overturned. Overturning a veto doesn't necessarily mean mindless anarchy will take hold like when everything got put to a poll, it just shows that you're willing to listen to reason.)
March 27, 201213 yr Sangria have confirmed again ^_^ Not as good as my original entry but I've just discovered it and I like it, so hope it will do well. *fingers crossed
March 27, 201213 yr We're on for a record number of veto's this month. Jesus it's like a group of y'all simultaneously decided to become shit, uninspired and the occasional thief.None of the above. Try "desperate" to get back in the game and you'll have me! :P Anyway, I had a feeling she'd be vetoed (but it was worth a try ha!) so luckily I had something else backed up. I thought I might have gotten away with P&B considering it's not her UK launch :heehee: I do agree with it's vetoing though this time :P
