I came 37th, not a great result honestly but I made the final and I'm happy with that, no idea what I'm entering for next contest so I may even showcase a few potentials here. ^_^

Thanks Harry! I loved my song a lot too was so I was really glad I got to the final with it. I was so chuffed to get three 18s, I love that it was such a major discovery for some of you. :wub:

This was a pretty underwhelming result for your first qualifier but at least it made it there!

 

(oh btw there were a couple of small mistakes in the semi positions for the past couple of contests so for the sake of accurate stats Imperial Leisure actually came 25th and Relient K were 28th - these should be reflected in the songs of thread the next time it gets updated lol)

Thanks Bré, updated that now.

 

I'll be posting potentials shortly! All three of the songs I'm thinking of are very different to each other.

yea the third one was already sent but honestly the first two are both so solid, there's not much between them, maybe the second one just slightly edges it for me though but I do love both a lot :o

So it was, I thought I did a search, must've opened the wrong stat thread. :lol:

 

Well it was my least favourite. There's still two and I'll probably update the list shortly.

So Aelandor came 10th in the Country spin off with the absolute tune that is "Platform 7" by Mt. Desolation.

 

As a huge Keane fan I was looking for solo material while they were on their long hiatus and stumbled across Mt. Desolation. The band is an alternative rock and country side project for two members of Keane: Pianist and lead songwriter Tim Rice Oxley and guitarist/ bassist Jesse Quin with Rice Oxley taking lead vocals and while he has also done so on the occasional Keane song, (see "Sunshine and "Your Love"), he usually sings backing since Tom Chaplin (who has a fantastic voice tbf, one of my favourite vocalists) is the lead singer for Keane so Tim really gets to show off his voice here.

 

Their self titled debut (and currently only) 2010 album also contains contributions from members of Mumford & Sons, Noah & The Whale and The Staves- fun fact, Jessica Staveley-Taylor is the female vocalist on "Platform 7". It's a beautiful album, very different from Keane's music (with the possible exception of "Bitter Pill"), but solid throughout, I'd absolutely recommend listening through it, I very almost entered both "Departure" and "Another Night On My Side", if you liked "Platform 7" check those out if nothing else.

 

Huge congratulations to Unovia for their win with Miranda Lambert's "Oklahoma Sky", beautiful track and a deserving winner. :wub:

Oh it's good to be back! Been following Copeland for a little while now and hoping you all enjoy this tune. :wub:

  • Author
I'm pleased to announce we've had our second qualifier! Thanks so much for all the votes for Copeland and let's see how far we can get in this one. :o
Well done Jacob! :cheer: I actually thought this was going to DNQ so I was majorly happy to be wrong. One of your strongest to date for sure!
