August 11, 201311 yr I hope my semi is full of people who enjoy deep house, otherwise I'm out on my arse. You have me at least!
August 11, 201311 yr So many good entries in Semi 2, really loving Rich's so he better qualify this time!!
August 11, 201311 yr Mdice sending Twigs (who is now FKA twigs appaz lolz) *again*? A bit SHITTY that N DNTN are in the other semi <_< At least Persephonié and Varakë are with me <3
August 11, 201311 yr I'm also not trying to ruin my chances :lol: but Castles was what I originally intended to send. However, when I was looking to see if it had been entered before, I saw it came 2nd in UP so I thought it would be a bit unfair if I sent it! Excellent taste (still my proudest 'song contest' moment on here)! I've always wondered how of Verona would do in BJSC as they seem pretty friendly to both contests but up to now I haven't gotten round to sending them. So good luck with it. Almost all the people I showed my song to + said they liked it are in the other semi. Sod's law that that'd happen really.
August 11, 201311 yr That draw is horrendous for my chances, literally everyone I thought may vote for Lamb is in Semi II with the possible exception of Chris maybe? Oh I don't know, may well get some points for me. There goes my potential next UP entry too. I love Water Me so I hope it can get through so I can vote for it on the final.
August 11, 201311 yr I'm just hoping people get the mp3s as my entry isn't on YouTube or SoundCloud in its entirety but I adore it. Hope it's a genuine discovery for others.
August 11, 201311 yr Listening through now, there are some great tracks from unexpected countries! About 4 or 5 of the entries must have sailed VERY close to the veto!
August 11, 201311 yr I didin't even know who Janet Leon was until 1 hour ago, regardles Ryan has went with the cheapest option again (alesso rly?) following the Krewella veto! I am getting fed up with this from you recently especially as last night you said that a different entry was the cheapest in the contest, but obviously you aren't saying that on here as the person who sent that song is one of your favourite members on the forum. My song did not go over 16 points (I don't think) unlike yours, Alesso hasn't exactly had much chart success (and Dirty South is the main artist anyway) and Janet Leon had a lot of hype on here following her Melodifestivalen entry, in a similar way to Molly Sandén last year, whether you knew that or not. This isn't to say that I believe your entry should've been vetoed as I don't think it should as Melodifestivalen was quite a few months ago now, but I don't think you can say that I have gone with the "cheapest option" in the whole contest. You seem to have gone for a "cheap" option too following your veto as I believe you tried to enter Little Daylight?

You seem to have gone for a "cheap" option too following your veto as I believe you tried to enter Little Daylight? Although a lot of your entries have been quite 'cheap' I wouldn't call this one cheap at all. Alesso is a 'name' but not exactly a superstar at this point, and I've never heard this particular song of his before. It's quite far away from being the cheapest in this contest when there are other songs here with large Scandipop/PJ support and hype and a song that's been on basically every pop blog over the past few months and went top ten in quite a few personal charts! But I'm not bothered by their presence here as I trust the veto framework.

But I'm not bothered by their presence here as I trust the veto framework. Yeah, I completely agree! I know I am often 'cheap' but I don't think this one is just because Alesso is on it like you say.
August 11, 201311 yr Alesso only scored 3 VP thanks to Alesso being a recycled artist. Even I scored more points than that. (14 thanks to Popjustice and Phlox also trying to confirm it.) It's not picked up nil VP but 3 for recycling hardly puts it near the realm of cheapest. Ironically if I remember correctly, I'm sure Bray will be able to confirm, the unvetoed song with the highest score was Janet Leon. For Ramrynia, no offence Ryan, a score this low is bloody inspired.
August 11, 201311 yr Yeah Alesso might be known but he's certainly not had hype on the forum or anything like Janet had a few months ago. Apparently Kerli's also meant to be cheaper, and I understand she's been vetoed before, but she's only a featured artist here and got, what, 10 veto points I think Bray said? 3 from moderate chart success (three charts) and 7 from Kerli having made the top 10 before or something, that's hardly that cheap.

You seem to have gone for a "cheap" option too following your veto as I believe you tried to enter Little Daylight? I had no idea who Janet Leon was until last night. I thought it was considered cheap because of scandipop! Please don't mention Little Daylight when you tried to add Krewella!
August 11, 201311 yr Mdice sending Twigs (who is now FKA twigs appaz lolz) *again*? I was a lil concerned about that, but it's probably the best thing I've heard all year. Couldn't really imagine sending anything else. And it's not like she did that well last time.
August 11, 201311 yr I had no idea who Janet Leon was until last night. I thought it was considered cheap because of scandipop! Please don't mention Little Daylight when you tried to add Krewella! So you do think your entry is cheap then? :kink: I was only mentioning Little Daylight asking if you did have an entry vetoed this contest. I know Nicky Romero and Krewella are cheaper than Little Daylight even though I don't think many people at all will have heard 'Legacy', but my point was that you were saying that I entered the "cheapest option" following a veto when in fact you entered a much cheaper song in my opinion following your veto.
August 11, 201311 yr Ironically if I remember correctly, I'm sure Bray will be able to confirm, the unvetoed song with the highest score was Janet Leon. Martin Garrix and (even though it's not cheap at all, it just ticks a lot of boxes) Youngblood Hawke both got 1 point more by my count :kink: But in both cases, especially the latter, I wasn't sure how to quantify 'substantial Internet coverage' so Janet had the highest undisputed score yes. I'm torn between giving 12 to my actual favourite song and giving 12 to 'Roo' just COS.
August 11, 201311 yr I was a lil concerned about that, but it's probably the best thing I've heard all year. Couldn't really imagine sending anything else. And it's not like she did that well last time. I just can't seem to like any song of hers since Ache :(
