April 14, 201510 yr Might be backing Unovia this month. Haven't heard most of the semi 2 qualifiers yet but 'Pedestrian At Best' is divine. :wub: Oh my, the hype :o thanks for getting the train rolling in this thread ~
April 14, 201510 yr 'Someone Like You' was sent before Adele became the MASSIVE name she is now, and it wasn't a single at that point either so although there was some hype around the Jools Holland performance it's far from the most veto-worthy song that got through.
April 14, 201510 yr 'Someone Like You' was sent before Adele became the MASSIVE name she is now, and it wasn't a single at that point either so although there was some hype around the Jools Holland performance it's far from the most veto-worthy song that got through. I'm well aware she was nowhere near as big as she is now! She was still a very successful artist and I clearly recall that performance gaining huge online attention very quickly, to the point where the song was nearly overshadowing the hype around 'Rolling In The Deep'. Anyway, I'm new to this so I'm sure there were much more veto worthy songs over the years.
April 14, 201510 yr This contest does have a similar number of finalists as most of the previous 1BF contests to be fair, the only difference is the inflated number of points that the extra voters will provide. Although I suppose it being separated in the stats thread would just be as valid as the first 6 contests being separated for a reason that I'm not entirely sure on (lack of semis and tiny contests?).
April 14, 201510 yr Voted. Really excellent quality this month! After a few contests in a row with no songs that made a HUGE impact on me, there are about 6 that I LOVE in this contest, and many more I really like :D
April 15, 201510 yr slowly but surely working my way through these songs, but that's now top of my predicts to win...
April 15, 201510 yr been through semi 1, a few gooduns didnt make it through sadly, but there are a bunch of tracks challenging my loves in semi 2, I've had to be very harsh and i'm down to 15 contenders. I'm glad there are more points available for the final, hooray!
April 15, 201510 yr Oh voted earlier ^_^ What a BRILLIANT contest to enter in, was very tough ordering my top 15, my 10-15 were swapped around so many times, another 5 tracks or so that I really wish I could've voted for! Really is a testament to how strong I felt the quality was this month, taken away so many discoveries, yay!
April 15, 201510 yr I voted earlier, soooo glad about being able to vote for more countries, it was quite easy for me to narrow it down to 15 surprisingly, a lot of great tracks that haven't got nearly as much hype as they deserve so far, I'm pretty sure the winner of this contest will be an unexpected, possibly a "below the line prediction" could steal it ^_^ Snøw and Run have been such growers :wub:
April 16, 201510 yr altyr has made it 6/6 in the entry stakes recently, fast becoming my country of choice these daiz
April 16, 201510 yr But they weren't the country of many's choice last month - they came last!!! :lol: (Altyr-related observation: 'Call It Off' sounds more like a Hot Chip song than the actual Hot Chip song in this final).
April 16, 201510 yr Can I just say how much I would LOVE that the top 2 was the same two countries as last contest? Both would be deserving winners, yet again! (Along with a couple of others - I just wouldn't be opposed to Daehun and FARC being the top 2 yet again!)
April 16, 201510 yr Author :( just noticed Born Free is in the mp3 pack in its remixed form :( That actually reminds me....MP3 pack is coming tonight! :magic: (I'll correct that now!)
