I have to say I was genuinely surprised by the winner, as I was adding it up it seemed like Broken Bells had it in the bag, but as you can see it was very close in the end and I think a very rewarding edition.

 

 

Not bad since I was the runner up last time mind you Swept was beautiful it was a great discovery that was very close in the end, I would have hated to host again after the flack I got over Churchill.

 

For some reason I always do well in UP, shame I can't repeat the success over on BJSC

 

Thanks for hosting.

Yay @ Rosie sneaking into the Top 20 in the final minutes, many thanks Martin and Johnkm <3

 

Glad for my top pointer winning too, congrats Cal, but a shame that Pretend (Cecilia) didn't make it into the upper echelons of the Top 10, such an amazing song.

Glad for Cal, wasn't keen on the entry though, I'm shocked it was top 10 let alone winning!

 

9-10-16-22-11

 

Stupid two songs in between ruining the pattern. Still, 13th next please *.*

 

LOL, that was kinda scary, I'm guessing 20th would be next to keep this pattern going.

 

I definitely didn't expect to be this high though, especially as I thought it would be far more suited to BJSC, so massive thanks to everyone for the votes. Though I need to find a way to get past 9th, it's clearly my song contest barrier than I haven't scratched yet.

6 - 12 - 7

 

Not a bad run so far. Better than BJSC anyway. :lol:

I know right? :wub: Hey your votes pushed it into the top 15 which was precisely my goal. So thanks!

Well this was thrilling to the very end. Congrats on the come-from-behind victory! And by one point!?

Job well done John ^_^

Next year please don't hold a contest over Xmas.

It was just a nightmare trying to get involved with this.

 

I am actually feeling quite gutted I couldn't take part.

omg great result and quite a fabulous revealing of a winner *.*

I'm VERY surprised at Macross picking up all these points. I thought it would be too plain for UP. Thanks, all! ^_^

It's CATCHY SHIT. I was deliberating on whether to give Macross my 12 or 15, and I choose the latter so I completely kicked myself in the foot there!

 

Can't believe I came second - I was expecting something like 15th and that's coming from someone who doesn't normally underestimate their entries!

 

The top 5 is amazing, except for Broken Bells which was poo xxx

Wow, this was a surprise... Ok, I'd say it's my fault, I ranked Mondkopf 4th, if I waited one more day with voting it would've won. I passionately hate 'Want Me', it was among my least favourites (25th) (I guess I'm the only one with this), I'm shocked that everyone liked it THIS much.

Yeah, and I'm not happy that my entry couldn't reach 17th, but 2 of my favourites (Sideways and High Pressure Dave) couldn't even make the top 20, so it's not a real shocker.

 

Thanks for hosting J°hnkm and congrats Cal!!! :)

 

And of course, special thanks to the ones sending in my favourites: Harve, SevenSeize, Doctor Blind and randomfurlong :dance:

5th place for my Connan entry - seems like it might have been a marmite entry for most people.

 

And who knows, if I'd voted correctly we might have had a different winner ;-). (Next time I'll remember to give a 20pointer).

I do. You voted for the entire Top 4 so there is no way your 1 or 2 pointers would have any impact.

this is the 2nd time in a row my 20 has came 2nd! the CURSE

 

i am very happy not to be last, i sent something which i knew that even in this contest would have extremely little appeal so to pick up 36 points is great.

Apologies John, I completely forgot about voting in this last week.

 

ALTHOUGH it was obviously meant to be as my deduction ensures that my run of many 1s etc continues for another contest *.*
