August 26, 20177 yr NOOOOO I've been vetoed for the first time. :cry: (I sent Kelela - LMK) ngl I'm gutted, I really wanted loads of people to discover it through BJSC :/ bloody blogs. Go check it out if you don't already know it, serious Aaliyah vibes <3 Back to my original entry then I guess~
August 26, 20177 yr I was quite looking forward to your reconfirmed track after you sold me on this; I haven't done this since BJSC 84 but here we go... I've just reconfirmed! Fell in love with an R&B song that gives me Aaliyah vibes (:heart:) and I really want to share it with the BJSC masses, especially as I rarely dabble in this genre. The reason I'm insistent on sending it now is that it's very new whereas my original entry is from a few years ago so less likely to get snatched next month :kink: hope this will be alright 'cause she hasn't had any commercial success and doesn't really have much of a BJ fanbase at all.
August 26, 20177 yr i have to say, it's a bit late to send out vetoes considering we have to find something else + resubmit by tomorrow.
August 26, 20177 yr Who tried Fickle Friends :o me. but i don't listen to radio 1 so I didn't know it was b-list :lol:
August 26, 20177 yr what? I sent them ages ago so I was stanning the artist :lol: Edited August 26, 20177 yr by HarryEzra
August 26, 20177 yr I sent them ages ago so I was stanning the artist :lol: oh :lol: thought you were shading me for not listening to radio 1! ha
August 26, 20177 yr Mystery Skulls - Ghost 25 - Song previously sent in BJSC 73 and DNQ'ed 25 We don't seem to be able to go a month without someone trying to send a song that was already sent these days... :kink: Checking the Songs of BJSC thread is important!!1 Oops at Jadakissnia exiting the no vetoes club, I know the feeling (Run The Jewels never forget). I had already heard 'LMK' though - was played on Radio 1 on Monday evening when I was on the way home! - and can say it would have been one of the weakest Jadakissnia entries to date for me though so that's a silver lining at least :mellow: x Who knew Aaron Carter still existed!
August 26, 20177 yr We don't seem to be able to go a month without someone trying to send a song that was already sent these days... :kink: Checking the Songs of BJSC thread is important!!1 it's not up-to-date though, is it?
August 26, 20177 yr it's not up-to-date though, is it? True but the song sent here was one that was sent years ago so it is in there (the thread is only a couple of months out of date right now I think).
August 26, 20177 yr i have to say, it's a bit late to send out vetoes considering we have to find something else + resubmit by tomorrow. It's rare to leave it so late to dish out vetoes for songs sent several days ago but unfortunately exceptional circumstances made it the case this month. it's not up-to-date though, is it? It's only 3 contests out of date though, this was sent 25 contests ago! Earlier this year we moved our focus away from updating the songs of and instead are transforming it into a much more accessible and new way of displaying it!
August 26, 20177 yr I knew Stockholm Noir would be vetoed but i was in love with it. Reconfirmed anyway.
August 26, 20177 yr To be fair we do say pretty religiously that you can be vetoed at any time right up until the semis open and even then I'd give it 48hrs to be sure We've been pretty on it this year but as Ryan says there was some circumstances at play. We will have a new songs of thread for you ahead of 99 for finalists that will be v.quickly updated from now on. Should have the semi finalist in ahead of 101. Work has been a lil hectic lately with a lot of long hours but it's just a fortnight till our new people start so the end is in sight! Sorry it's a bit late this month. We know it's not nice to scramble so we do try and get back to you as soon as we can.
