October 12, 20168 yr Those votes, amazing. Congratulations Fljótavík, great to see such a long epic track win a contest! Wasn't sure at first if I'd be pointing it but I was completely won over with the second half or so. Great top 10 in general (including little old me in there :angel: My fourth spin-off top 10 and third in a row)! Thanks v much Bré for hosting, this was a great spin-off!
October 12, 20168 yr I can only profusely apologise for not voting in this! Thanks very much for all the points I did not expect to receive that many. This has been a fun read even with my lack of partaking...
October 12, 20168 yr Yay! Well that certainly counts as my most unexpected result ever, what an extremely pleasant yet slightly ridiculous thing to happen. Yay long tracks though! *.* Really happy with most of that top 10 too actually, especially Sleeping At Last and Lights In Motion. Feeling a tiny bit bad for entering Underworld now as it was a little cheap but I really genuinely never thought it would stand a chance given the length of it... plus I knew that you can't ever get the track without buying an entire album so thought people might appreciate the mp3 without having to pay a tenner for it! :D Thanks all who voted for it and sorry again Chez - eeeeeek.
October 12, 20168 yr congrats dandy :cheer: :winner: :cheer: delighted with a 12th place finish for Frank T.R.A.X ^_^ ~ thanks for the votes v much appreciated~ :heart:
October 12, 20168 yr A fantastic winner :wub: Kudos to Dandy* for taking a risk on a 17-minute epic :D
October 12, 20168 yr Oh and thanks to Bré for having a great idea for a spin off, hosting it wonderfully and, last but not least, vetoing Propellerheads. (plus this more than makes up for Fljótaball not making the final of the main contest ^_^ ) Edited October 12, 20168 yr by dandy*
October 12, 20168 yr Ooh yay to Dandy! And thanks Bre for hosting, a great show and I've made so many brilliant discoveries here <3 I'm quite pleased to have escaped the bottom ten, it's a pretty special song for me, and I knew it wouldn't have any crossover appeal but hopefully those who like that sort of thing made a nice discovery.
October 12, 20168 yr I'm alive dw x ur giving me v me teas rn chez idk how you guys that are constantly at the top of the scoreboard do it every month, I could barely look it was so tense :x But now I have, as frustratingly close as that was (Lotti, we're through), I am MORE than happy losing to Fljotavik, not just cos it was my 18 but truly one of the most stunning, groundbreaking pieces of music I've ever heard and how amazing that a song of that length can actually win (plus it reminds me of the London Olympics and anything that can remind me of that wonderful time is great in my books), Well played Dand :heart: and my 15 right behind me as well, couldn't have asked for much more! For a contest I loved so much, it is a true compliment to come 2nd so thank you very much all for voting, miles beyond my expectations for this one, and two places higher than Fireflies went in UP! Can't remember how many points Nightcall got but still to see a track I've loved for a while now getting me near a personal best is amaze to see (Gawd tho, that's now two 2nd places in BJSC spin-offs, a 2nd in UP & Nuggets and a 3rd in the main BJSC - I'm gonna need a win soon -_- ) The rest of the top 10 looks fantastic, all ones that I would've/really wanted to vote for, particularly great to see St. Burbia and Ashton top 10, non dance instrumentals up <3 Syndare/Botanikka farrr to low though. Thank you Bre for hosting this wonderful thing flawlessly as you always do, sequel plz [2] Edited October 12, 20168 yr by Chez Wombat
October 12, 20168 yr I think I'll scream of laughter if FLJ winsOMG Anyway other than that and that last rush for Cadelicia, I'm so f*cking glad that's over. Only voted for 2 of the top 10 + generally flopped the hell out of this. Ready to push this aside and count the country spin-off in place of this.
October 12, 20168 yr Author Actually now I think about it... was 'fja twigs' meant to be Fljótavík...? I took it as being FKA FKA FKA Pi but now I'm not sure. Lotti pls confirm (FLJ won by more if so! :lol:) EDIT: nope I was right the first time, thanks for confirming Lotti xx
October 12, 20168 yr I propose to put Lotti's votes on a plaque for one of the most iconic BJSC moments since "thank GOD I didn't get vetoed, oops I got vetoed"
October 12, 20168 yr Author Thanks to everyone for taking part in this anyhow :heart: all of this couldn't have gone any better, especially as I got another top 5 and my highest spinoff points ever! I had a feeling that 'Shona' would be well appreciated in an Instrumentals spinoff but then lost that feeling when a load of people that I didn't expect were going to enter showed up. (Still glad they did though ofc!! :D) 'And I Will Kiss' is such a special winner, I really didn't think it was going to happen even when the 18s started rolling in in the second half of voting - 'The Spectacular Quiet' would have been a brilliant winner as well and I can feel the pain of the endless 2nds and 3rds without a win for Chez but still think it was the right winner there, and I would have been absolutely gutted if it fell 1-3 points short as then I'd feel like I cost it by deciding not to give it my 18! Massive congrats Dandy :heart: The rest of the results all look brilliant too, 'Empire Of Angels' and 'Beethoven Virus' are possibly the best ever entries from both of their countries, and I'm very pleased to see St. Burbia in particular making the top 10 as well :wub: as well as Ashton, Deandria and Aelandor (even though the latter missed out on my votes)! Oh and Medhelnia is also good. x Was hoping for a slightly better result for Lone but top 20 is not too bad! Super thanks to everyone who voted for 'Shona' in particular and extra super thanks to the mods for allowing this to go ahead, I understood the reservations but I hope we can agree this went very well in the end xo Let us all celebrate this momentous occasion by reminding ourselves of all the brilliant songs in this B-) (I meant to put this in the first post but forgot lmao)
October 12, 20168 yr I listened to that recap whilst attempting to get back into my exercise routine a few days ago lol, thanks for putting it together. So many great tunes one after the other <3 (I may or may not be entering an instrumental to the next regular, probably will unless I find something better xx)
October 13, 20168 yr 7 points: Moonbootica - June (Robby East Bootleg) (Traingledonia) Choo choo! :lol: 32nd of 41 gets my three-sided approval :D I have a lot of instrumentals in my library so I suppose some of them would've done better :thinking: no doubt another instrumental spinoff will happen another date :P
October 13, 20168 yr the ONLY acceptable winner rly - congrats Dandy* and grrr for me not thinking to send it regarding my own entry... well, at least I know now that sending it to the main contest (as I've long considered!) would have been a total D I S A S T E R lmao thanks Bre for hosting so well as usual <3
