February 16, 201510 yr +12 Syndare: A-L-X - Tried Love oh wow! thank you :heart: shame few others felt the same, but then Alex Gardner always was underappreciated and I'm not really surprised in the slightest.
February 16, 201510 yr Really gutted for Mezidinia and Klum Rep. :( My 12 and 10 pointers out so calling out for some real takers from the semi 2 qualifiers. I didn't think Mez would make it unfortunately but very shocked at Klum. Racism towards SWAG continues ~
February 16, 201510 yr No! The contest dies if people play it safe. Just stick to sending what you absolutely f***ing adore and one day you'll strike gold. Literally. This. I always think you stand a better chance of doing well if you stand out but appeal majorly to some than to have everyone quite like it but give you low points. Also, better to introduce one or two people to a song they adore than have everyone think it's pleasant but iforget it by the time the next contest begins. Etc. Plus having brave choices gives a country some character, the contest needs character!
February 16, 201510 yr Great to see 'TV' qualified after all – thanks for the votes! Had a family bereavement last week and the funeral was yesterday so was spending time back home with family over the last few days and never got around to listening properly/voting. It looks like my likely big pointers flopped hard so I doubt my votes would have made much of a difference :(. Can't believe Syndare finished as low as 31st and I also feel Sandénia, N DNTN and Unovia were underappreciated in Semi 2. Very happy with some of the qualifiers though so it's definitely not all bad! Trifoski's top 10 run though </3 (and it being broken with such a great song too).

I didn't think Mez would make it unfortunately but very shocked at Klum. Racism towards SWAG continues ~ Thank You! I still stand by Orca being a beautiful song both lyrically and sonically. Did you know it was about the death of his friend? I'm sad to see Klum not Q as well. SWAG is everything! B-)
February 16, 201510 yr It's so so much better to take risks with entries, I have for a lot of the last few contests, sometimes it's worked (like this month) and sometimes it hasn't (last month), but when it does work, there's every chance it will exceed your expectations and it's a great feeling when you have an entry that smashes completely against the odds and if you haven't, at least you can say you tried and weren't just glory hunting. If you want to send a song that will get an easy qualifier then fine, but don't be surprised if it gets lost in the pack when the final comes around and finishes poorly (which I find in some cases is worse than DNQing, honestly)
February 16, 201510 yr Thank You! I still stand by Orca being a beautiful song both lyrically and sonically. Did you know it was about the death of his friend? I'm sad to see Klum not Q as well. SWAG is everything! B-) Yeah it has a really tender message behind it, which i read up about. Adds a lot more meaning and depth to the song (not that it needs it!). Really connected with me and is actually a Haus personal chart #1 :o stunning song, from a beautiful album <3

February 17, 201510 yr Oh damn. Neither my own entry, nor my absolute favourite tracks in each semi went through: Aeroche & Llewandia. BAH

February 17, 201510 yr 'Adelante' deserved a place in final after getting a one 12 (thanks Aeroche) and three 8's :o Thanks guys.
February 17, 201510 yr Finally snapped that run of 5 DNQ's so thank you everybody who voted for Isconia.
February 17, 201510 yr Well that's about 42 points more than I expected. Thanks everyone who voted for Numayania. We going old school next time :funky:

February 17, 201510 yr I am so gutted for Tinnmark. That song was straight up pectin. It came on at a critical part of my run today and I was dance running like a trooper. Oslol are sending emergency copies of Hard Candy over to Tinnmark as we speak. STAY STRONG. Aaw thank you for the 12 <3
