April 28, 201411 yr When are we expecting the list. Despite only knowing about the contest for about 10 minutes I'm already itchy and impatient. I'm almost certain I've got a border DNQ / Q entry. I need odds confirmations / reassurance.
April 28, 201411 yr Unless the final list gets approved like super late and stuff, this evening. Amazing, thanking you kindly.
April 28, 201411 yr Don't hold your breath. I'm studying in uh library this evening so I won't be able to review the final list until 9pm at the earliest.
April 28, 201411 yr Oh, so the thread is probably going live tomorrow then. Which would mean 6 days of voting in Semis.
April 28, 201411 yr Them mp3s are done and if there're no more vetoes, the thread will be up quickly :o
April 28, 201411 yr Following Lykke Li being vetoed as expected, This morning re-confirmed another Canadian like last month!
April 28, 201411 yr Author Oh, so the thread is probably going live tomorrow then. Which would mean 6 days of voting in Semis. This is most likely as I've got no info on vetoes and I'm still at work so expect the thread tomorrow by 6/7pm
April 28, 201411 yr Following Lykke Li being vetoed as expected If you expected to be vetoed why did you waste our time with it?
April 28, 201411 yr If you expected to be vetoed why did you waste our time with it? coz he's a cheap hoe
April 28, 201411 yr If you expected to be vetoed why did you waste our time with it? On the off chance it would get through, I wasn't 100% sure and it would have been nice to send one of my absolute favourite songs of the moment for once, I do love my next entry but I haven't had an entry that actually made my personal chart top 5 for a while, so I thought I'd try. No harm in trying... coz he's a cheap hoe This too obv.
April 28, 201411 yr But it would literally never get through. There would never be an 'off chance' though. Not under the new system, not under the old system. - Popjustice & Pitchfork (10 points) - Former winner, recycled oft (12 Points) - 3 BJSC Personal Charts (3 points) and that's where the research stopped. 25 points without even really trying to find anything on it. That's a straight veto, no discussion required kind of track. Like I said, no 'off chance'.
April 28, 201411 yr Lykke Li and tUnE-yArDs are both excellent choices! Shame they were vetoed really because they aren't massively well known, tUnE-yArDs in particular. Lykke Li is the only one with a whiff of a Top 200 hit: "I'm Good I'm Gone" crawled in to #152 in 2008 ; granted "I Follow Rivers" was an absolutely massive hit all across Europe, I still find it bizarre how it did absolutely nothing in the UK.
April 28, 201411 yr I don't think they ever bothered attempting to push 'I Follow Rivers' here, no idea why when it was such a huge hit everywhere else. But Lykke Li was definitely a rightful veto, she's very popular on here and a former contest winner. Not as sure about whether tUnE-yArDs should have been vetoed but I have seen a fair amount of hype for them / the track on here as well. It's a pretty bad song anyway so not rly missing anything with it being vetoed ~ So are semis definitely not opening until tomorrow now?
April 28, 201411 yr Not massively well known to the UK Populous, but both are known to Buzzjack. Especially former winner Lykke Li. A lot of people here tend to pay attention to future releases by discoveries they particularly enjoy.
April 28, 201411 yr I wasn't disagreeing with the decision, I just think it is a shame as I love both tracks! Ho Hey.
