I realise literally no one else will vote for my +20 but I nominated it anyway so I can throw it that 20 as a complete waste.

 

EDIT: Oh, it's actually picking up quite a few points on the CTRL+F thingy. Not a chance of it qualifying though.

 

Such an insanely good year though <3 There were loads of other songs I wish I could have nominated too which are better than most of this list.

Edited June 10, 201213 yr by ‽‽‽

1. Eve – Tambourine (FAVE)

2. Gossip – Standing In The Way of Control

3. Kylie Minogue – 2 Hearts

4. Pink – Leave Me Alone

5. Mika – Grace Kelly

6. Gwen Stefani – Sweet Escape

7. Amerie – Take Control

8. Plain White T’s – Hey There Delilah

9. Take That – Shine

10. Fergie - Glamorous

 

As your late votes don't change the qualifiers I shall accept them....

Insanely close run for the final qualification position, with just 10 points separating 11 songs. Indie fans rue not putting 'The Magic Position' a little higher whilst Delta Goodrem fans with noted obsessive Joseph MJF 1D had voted this week!

Songs in BOLD were in the final last year but finished in the bottom 15.

Potential Break-Up Song? Really? :/

As if "Here (in Your Arms)" was 1 point from qualifying whilst "2 Hearts" went through :\ At least "Glamorous" went through.

Potential Break-Up Song? Really? :/

 

This is BuzzJack after all, mediocre songs with undue attention were BOUND to qualify.

 

I am more shocked that The Knife and Arcade Fire managed to qualify, admittedly Arcade Fire with the poorest of their song choices on offer, but I am grateful for small mercies.

Potential Break-Up Song? Really? :/

It gets in EVERY SINGLE YEAR! Utterly mind-boggling! I think last year was the first time it actually dropped out of the final automatically.

I've just looked back to last years and 'The Magic Position' finished 18th, poor Patrick. :(

Why does BuzzJack continually refuse to show love for 'Our Velocity'? First it fails to even get to the semis of the One Week Wonders game and now this :(

 

Anyway, fantastic to see Keep The Car Running and How To Save A Life qualify :cheer: Also Perfect (Exceeder) and Misery Business but I'd have been surprised if they didn't qualify.

 

Solta O Frango did reasonably well! I'm pleased enough.

 

Hellogoodbye and Patrick Wolf BOTH missing out by one point‽ :( Goodbye Mr. A so low is also an OUTRAGE.

Edited June 10, 201213 yr by ‽‽‽

RUBBISH INTERNET GAIS have a lot to answer for!

Great for The Fray, Gossip, JoJo, Mika, Mason vs Princess Kelly, and most of all Misery Business! :wub:

 

Could take or leave the other qualifiers, argh at Mutya and Delta getting so close though. Decent results overall I guess.

God damn it, Intervention should've gone through.
