I also regret sending Blank's
too soon, it came 10th in 2009, which is obviously fantastic, but I feel it would have been a winning contender at any point from 2013 onwards once more people had joined that appreciated that sort of sound, definitely well ahead of its time.

it's still a mainstay of my essentials playlist now.

Good to hear! I'm shocked that the video has only had 3,000 views in eight years :o Most of those are probably mine!

i love it!!!

 

is anyone gonna talk about still corners and how that was robbed????

 

Oh well y'know, most of them :3

 

specifically~ Happier, WOR, Mirror Maru, Sugarbread, Getting Me Down, Babs Seed, Deadwater, Fix My Life and Nautilus

Not quite my favorite but definitely sounded like a smash :snif:

 

 

And on a lesser note,

H Kamhla (at the time - since then it's been quite successful on BJ!)

 

The others more or less deserved to flop tbh

 

But Medicine :( and Troubled Mind could've done with being a bit more popular.

 

Oh and of course Chinese Food did not deserve that low place!!!

Bumping just to revise some recent songs since the last time.

 

'Invisible', 'Dive', 'Knocking On Your Heart', 'Salt', 'Pink (Freak)' (probably the most baffling dnq for me yet as it sounded like a much safer qualifier to me) , and to a little extent 'Illusion' (This was more of a shame than unexpected dnq though). Beverly was a disappointing dnq as well but ended up as my most streamed last year so some positive turned out on that front.

 

I wasn't AS bothered about any others as I expected them and a couple deserved to DNQ :kink:

Dive was kinda ahead of its time considering trance became a bit of a viable genre and spawned a ton of hits after that (Give Love A Try, Saving Light, Kaamos, Rising High, Save You, Right Now, etc.)

I mean I'd say my biggest 'OOF' was...

 

Luckily this one won another competition at the end of the year but in Bjsc itself, a DNQ 🤔.

 

Since last time I’d say the flops of mine that I think deserved better were Daithi’s Mary Keanes Introduction (it’s so unique and charming <3 although it did at least get major redemption with a top three rejects finish) and Un Altro Giorno Sulla Terra by Dolcenera which is such a huge Italian summer anthem and one of my top five favourites songs of the last five years, but was paid complete dust here. The carnival instrumental middle eight is so utterly joyous.

 

I also think Dream by Yusuf Can Kurt deserved to comfortably Q, and Salsa Me by Spacetrain should have been way higher than bottom five, especially after winning its semi!

SOLDOUT - 'Do It Again' is definitely my biggest shock DNQ! I'm pretty sure it was consistently within the top 10 of people's odds.

 

Josin - 'Once Apart' was a disappointing one early last year too - that definitely seemed to be wrong semi syndrome judging by the people who were vocal fans.

 

How this masterpiece flopped and DNQ'd upon my BJSC debut I will never understand.

This does sound like it could be an easy top 10 for skyperoche or jadaskypia x

since last time..

 

 

this band/project, Egoist, have become one of my favourites since sending this and this deserved a lot more than below 20 points same with my entry this month tbh, was actually shocked at how much Egoist was ignored originally though given how much it goes off.

 

my

entry earlier this year could have easily been a symph metal success in a different semi configuration I think, oh and Eiko Shimamiya is transcendent so that one should have got me at least a little bit of AQ semi-success.

Right so X With U & especially Where To Go were generic admittedly but didn't deserve to DNQ. All my others since 3 years ago were more understandable/expected.

 

In terms of finalists my last entry was NOT bottom 3 standard at all. Prospa - Prayer should have been a big hit. Oh and it didn't do bad by any means but worth a mention that Crab Rave should have been top 10 :P

 

Still don't get why it flopped so badly in the semis :(
