155

 

 

For 155 we've sent popular electronic French Duo Minuit Machine and 'Contradictions'. They of course have already been sent by Persephonia in the past where they came 2nd in 2020 with 'Don't Run From The Fire' which we pointed highly, can't remember if it mightve even been my 18 or not.

 

Anyhow this is one from their latest material which came out around September of last year!

Rounding off two full years of qualifying :w00t: I'm sure I won't have been far off 21st though lol.

 

Thanks for taking me through again!

Yasss, with Jade almost sending Final Notice and I considered White City and its wacky video. But this is another good one, I've got my eye firmly on Willow, she should be as big as Venbee really.

 

I don't think your Q streak is ending with this one anyway.

A catchy pop track from Los Angeles artist Chappell Roan has the honour of representing us for the 157th BJSC Contest. She's already been sent twice before and both were also great pop tracks from her. She was at the start of 2018 someone I was eyeing up entering but figured her music sound then defo wouldn't see it out of a semi so here's hoping it she makes it through with a solid bop like this ^_^

 

Magician Katrina Kroetch appears in the video too!

We qualified once again, extending our personal record breaking streak to 22 Q's in a row!

 

Also because I'm a prat I should have updated my songs results each contest so this is taking me some time to have to delve through and put them down haha! Will put those into the first page when I do!

158. Lucia & The Best Boys - Burning Castles

 

 

"Time Goes Slowly, Time Goes Fast"

 

This contest we're sending the fab Lucia & The Best Boys with their recent track 'Burning Castles'. Some will already know this as we see it in personal charts and it also made the multichart last week as well so it should likely do well for us I'd imagine. Brilliant track if I say so myself and the chorus and intro I can't get out of my head!

And :cheeseblock: we won again. Just when we were qualifying but bottom 10 for the last few months we pulled it right up there! Thank you to all the voters and especially the nations who gave us 18!! We won't be hosting unfortunately but we do have our streak already notch up to 24 as we have the automatic AQ. Which means I could send something with no pressure on xx

159 AQ entry - Blutengel - You Walk Away

 

 

Decided to go down the industrialish route for my AQ this time and it does have a nice Halloween goth vibe to it without sounding scary at all really. It's been 5 years since I sent Blutengel to the Halloween spinoff where that entry came 10th! This one I had been listening to as a potential dating back as far as February 2017!

22nd for Blutengel which is the second time we finished there after Carpenter Brut in 2017!

For the final contest of 2023 we are sending crosses (+++) with 'The Beginning Of The End' which is something we were spamming a lot in 2021. It's a cover of the Cause & Effect song from 1992. Crosses have been around since 2011 and is Deftones lead singers Chino Moreno's side project. It's the second month running we've sent a act we already sent to a Spin off (Halloween again funnily enough). The mission is to try and be more inspired with our picks going in 2024 but we're hoping this song won't be the beginning of the end for our impressive streak and at the final one of 2023!

and I oop. RIP streak :snif: I think unlike Fljovatik's entry of the same title a few months ago this one was perhaps pushing it when I was on such a long run and also is definitely a good reminder not to keep self recycling but honestly I had nothing else this month and very almost decided to end it myself by sitting out lol!

 

Honestly though from July 2021 to November 2023 I would have never have imagined keeping up such an impressive streak with so many close calls at many a time.

 

As for what's next now we are sitting on the outside watching in for the first time in over two years... who knows!

Not gonna lie I'm not expecting a Q here and that's not necessarily the aim as I stumbled across this at the end of November and thought it just sounds so cool and fun to me so I'm sending it because it's fun. Enjoy some Russian Folk Pirate Metal from Arkona with 'Yarilo'

BJSC 162 - Allison Iraheta - Friday I'll Be Over You

 

 

For this contest we'll be turning back the clock to 2009 and we are sending Allison Iraheta who finished 4th in American Idol. The same one that Adam Lambert took part in and came runner up and I remember being sad she didn't make the final 3. The season was ultimately won by Kris Allen!

 

It has hints of Kelly Clarkson and Katy Perry that I mentioned in the confirmations. Again not absolutely positive in a Q but it's another fun one to send for me so here we are ^_^

Me misspelling Allison Iraheta all the time during the prep :cheeseblock: (Alison Ireheta, Allison Ireheta, Alison Iraheta, Allison Irehata)
