October 29, 20177 yr Oh noo, poor brave Chez getting yet another silver medalist!! Although actually I don't think Iz has ever won any of the song contests either and he's been entering them for even longer so at least a long wait is over for someone, congrats Iz (after initially almost not entering this edition and all) x 'Danger' is a really good winner too but I was really rooting for 'Panic' there as it was my favourite and one I didn't think would do that well, plus it winning would give me hope that one of my weird UP entries could win one day!! :lol: So close to the top 10 myself as well dammit (although it would have been a 'fake' top 10 anyway since 'Pizza' got a deduction). That is a really good top 10 anyway, I voted for 8/10 of them and the other two were 13th and 14th! Jade's song deserved much better though x Thanks for this Pete! I wonder if this shorter period for confirmations / voting is the way forward for UP, since nearly everyone got votes in in the end anyway despite having half the time they normally do :thinking:
October 29, 20177 yr Pleased with 6th, thought it was going to be one of those "does extremely well on Plug but then does shite in the actual contest" that I seem to always get in BJSC. :lol:
October 29, 20177 yr disappointed my song finished second to lady second to lady, never heard that term before! :o
October 29, 20177 yr I think it's about 2am in India so Iz will be fast asleep. Iz deserves to treat himself to a nice Indian curry after winning this!
October 29, 20177 yr Iz deserves to treat himself to a nice Indian curry after winning this! I feel like if Lotti was here, she'd post this: FrikvyjnTLU
October 29, 20177 yr I feel like if Lotti was here, she'd post this: FrikvyjnTLU Oh my, now that's what I call 'alternative' music!
October 29, 20177 yr Ended up missing the whole thing bc I was at church, but congrats to Iz for finally getting through to everybody. I know how much you wanted to do well so revel in it babe :heart: Also thanks to Cal for an amazing song, one of my favorite discoveries in UP in a while. Yay at another top 10! After the initial plug reaction I thought it wasn't going to do as well but glad it pulled through!
October 29, 20177 yr See now I have no idea what to feel as I missed out at the very last set of votes which is like the most frustrating thing ever, but it was my 20 pointer that beat me, do I blame myself for this? :lol: :drama: Nah, I did expect Inouwee to run away with it though, and it was a fantastic entry (that I definitely did not expect to come from Iz :o It just...doesn't sound very you, great stuff though) Very well done on finally getting that win! And ofc. thanks everyone that voted Panic, I really didn't expect so many top scores and thought it may be a bit too weird to catch on, but thrilled to see that wasn't so, another 2nd place is ofc. marvellous, that's two this year across different song contests ;o Great show, Pete, sorry I couldn't follow most of it, this was a fantastic edition with a lot of great discoveries. Great to see Human Traffic, Assemblage 23, FIVE SUNS and Reptilians all top 10 in particular!
October 29, 20177 yr congrats Izzy, very good winner (that i called last night booyah~) and thanks Pete for hosting :3
October 29, 20177 yr I didn't actually expect the winner to run away with it! It's good though. Congrats Iz yay. I preferred Forest Swords but I'll also take that. I also really loved that my 20 pointer came fourth but I'm kinda glad that it didn't win because it's not particularly alternative.
October 29, 20177 yr Omg had no idea that song was Iz otherwise I'd never have given it my 20. xxx Was actually an amazing entry and I'm so glad it won, I know how long you've been waiting to win something Iz so huge congrats haha. BJSC next right? x Thanks for hosting Pete (and for liking my entry- absolute tune right?), was a really good edition.
October 29, 20177 yr Time for Jupiter now, who sent Joseph & Maia - Pouring Light. (there’s your answer Jordan ;)) It’s near the bottom, but I’m sure some of us have made a great discovery from it!Yessss I most certainly have, thank you for the discovery Jupter :wub: Congrats to Iz, especially if this is your first song contest win! I won't complain about 18th for my entry as I expected a marmite reaction for it. Glad it was in quite a few people's top 5s. Cheers for hosting, Pete! Yeah even with the shorter time frame this turned out just fine, the quality was strong :D
October 29, 20177 yr Well... at least I didn't come last :lol: not exactly debuting with a bang like in Nuggets but I did see that I got a coveted 20 from Rollo so thanks for that :wub: plus another high score from Mattias and small points elsewhere so it definitely could've been worse. Congrats Iz~! :cheer: fabulous winner, a lot of people predicted your song to be mine on plug.dj actually so it was naturally very up my street.
October 30, 20177 yr I... well, I can't play the 'entered for six years and never won any of the contests' card anymore, can I? Inouwee was a song I almost entered to BJSC 53, then changed and forgot about for years until I was looking on my iPod for a decent UP sounding song this month - which explains the different sound, we're going back to 2013 Iz's priorities for song searching, I can't really do it as effectively out here. Got right back into it though so I'll definitely take that as a winner, I'm so very pleased with that and that people I didn't expect were giving me 20s and the like. One down, three to go xx (incl. spinoffs) Commiserations to Chez too, your song sounded very interesting. I'm amused that the top 2 is made up of songs called Danger and Panic though. And very well done at hosting Pete, I'll get thinking how to present the next one, whenever it may be.
October 30, 20177 yr Yoou shady bertch Jerd!! How DARE you come for me like that!!! In the words of Belatrix, how dare!!!
