I was being told what was happening on MSN and I think I died several times during the results. I am/was quite crushed to lose it by TWO BLOODY POINTS but Moan is a fabulous song and I can't imagine a better host than Leww. Were those results really in random order? I find it hard to believe they were. Thank you for hosting an excellent contest Arrs!

 

Thanks to everyone who voted for Charli btw! Third place is mildly better than I expected so I'm choosing to be happy based on that + getting on the medal table.

Wow. I am actually AGOG at coming 7th. I think that's a joint personal best?! THANKS EVERYONE. LOVE YA.

 

AMAZING winner too. Truly haunting max track.

 

ETA: THANK YOU FREEZE (and to Sabrewulf as well). That's MORE LIKE IT.

 

You're welcome! Lovely discovery! :wub:

 

2 points, thank you Freeze! :D

 

You send so much good stuff these days and this must be your most inspired entry as of yet! And a wonderful choice at that! ^_^

 

Points again from Freeze in two contests in a row. :heart:. I appreciate it a lot. ^_^

Bullshit.

 

Deserved! Keep sending fantastic K-POP and you'll most likely have my continued support! :cheer:

 

Thank you Freeze. :wub:

 

I've began to like it even more now, so I'm very glad you decided to send it in the end! :D

 

Cheers Freeze!

 

Have you ever noticed points from me to you before? I don't think I've EVER given you points before, so that was most definitely a majorly belated one. Great discovery, though! :D

 

Especially after the mess and debacle that was the last UP.

 

Bitch please :(

 

 

HELL TO THE NO. When I saw the semi final results I saw "slightly" different picture to the final one.

 

Although somehow I knew that Isa would underperform in the final.

 

Here you go.

Wait. This isn't THAT important, but aren't I supposed to be 20th here? Given I've received one 10-pointer as well and Allecian did not? :unsure:

I'm surprised Rich didin't actually finish bottom three, his tracks seem to be declining in quality each month for me.

27th! :/ thanks to those who voted for it though, I'll comment further tomorrow...

half way through reading this and already betrayed by #00274E and Persephonia NOT HAPPY

REFUSING TO BE IMPRESSED BY PAVEL'S GIF

 

(just sounding eternally bitter wot. also don't wanna clog up with three posts in a row but i am so so happy with the winner! i was genuinely agonising over my top two and to THINK what would have happened if i'd put pavel top. LESSON FOR YOU ALL)

Bitch please :(

I really didn't mean your hosting Freeze. That was absolutely top notch.

 

I meant the quality of the entries. I just feel that UP is losing a bit of its identity but that's a discussion for the UP forum.

SOZ :(

SO glad I gave Trentemøller that one point. Congrats leww <3

Wow, thanks Bellamia for the 8, most unexpected. :o

 

Bit late, but you're welcome! It's a great track.

 

Meh at the winner, would've preferred Isa, but well done anyway Lew!

Just finished reading back through, well done to Aeroche, even though I can't recall how the track goes right this second, I'll give it another listen in a bit! Nice hosting from Arrs too!

 

A little gutted with 27th, I've been terribly off form this year but I've still been sending my favourite songs so I can't grumble too much, it's just that my music tastes aren't really as much in line with what does well in BJSC anymore :lol:

Omg Moan won :o So shocked, biggest shock winner since I've been competing even BJSC is basically Unknown Pleasures now so we maybe should have expected Bomb and The Begining Of The End to not do as well as we thought. It grew on me in the end too, I actually wish I had given it a point or two now! COngrats Leww, a great shock winner and more than likely a fabulous host!

 

I'll go back and read the whole thing in a minute, thanks to everyone who voted for So High, thank god for Mark at the end lifting me just off last at the last minute :lol: Well at least I qualified this time!

even BJSC is basically Unknown Pleasures now

Oh please.

Jake sending the gayest scandi pop song EVER doesn't really qualify him as a proper smoothie tbh.

BJSC is UP now... seriously? The bolded songs wouldn't go anywhere NEAR the Top 10 in UP. Two non-pop songs managed to win, one of them by the smallest margin possible (if we don't count a tie), and everyone's already like OMG THIS IS UNKNOWN PLEASURES NOW OMG.

 

If something like Oceana finished Top 10 in UP there'd be literally no hope.

I was exaggerating a bit, don't take it so seriously :lol:

I could see The Young Professionals top 10 in UP, but I would have probably sent Deserve or Dirty Messages. Have to say my voters were noticeably smoothier than last time tho ~

 

(When is the next UP btw? I have the PERFECT track for it).

CONGRATS LEWW <3 and everybody else for that matter. And CHEERS ARRS for a very enjoyable contest.

 

I've pretty much decided on my entry for the next contest already but it won't upload to soundcloud (copyright issues) - is there any alternative besides Youtube? Has anyone uploaded to Vimeo before?

Yeah, we've had a couple of links to Vimeo in the last couple of contests, so that should be fine! :D

I was going to say I'd better start looking, but for once I have 2 potential entries already, one is a bit uninspired though (not cheap though, just slightly uninpsired) but I daresay it's easily a qualifier anyway. The other is very very pop but I think someone else may be after it.
