I’m not bottom 5 hallelujah

 

Still thinking I’m gonna end up on the floppy side but that’s one hurdle down

I believe I gave points to Rain Song (at least by my saved rankings), that was quite a lovely song from what I recall.

awwwww i liked the do :( (for the same reasons u do dandy!)

I gave four points to The Dø, the highest of my votes that have gone out so far.

I gave The Do 5 points,also my highest so far.

Ooh yay these are happening!

 

'I'm Gone' coming last is entirely unsurprising, will at least always remember it for the iconic 4 mehs and 4 grabs result on the second plug.dj session *.* oops at uhsting coming last with his first entry in one of these, hopefully better results to come ;o

 

Already lost 2 of my votes though oops! 'Vincent Tyler' was my 3 pointer, a really lovely song, deserved way better than that! :( And I gave 6 to 'Ngurra (Rain Song)', very much my kind of thing *.* but not too surprising to see that going out early. Also makes sense the Aboriginal Australian song would turn out to be Rush. x

 

Bin-Jip wasn't too high up my rankings initially but it did sound a fair bit better with the refreshed listening session.

Well you did successfully avoid bottom 5 but alas your predictions about being out near the bottom have come true mr odyssey :( I didn't personally like this one enough to vote for it but I did enjoy someone sending a more typically indie sounding track as sometimes they feel like they're more absent than they once were. By the way I haven't broken ties as yet so you could actually end up 32nd but I'm not sure anyone will quibble!

WhoOdyssey will be discovering with the rest of us what his song was! :D

 

I ranked that one last on my original listenthrough oops but to be fair I'd probably move it up a few spaces now.

It's even better live!

Alex the Astronaut • Waste Of Time • Dexton

 

This is the first one I'm shocked to see out. When Dexton submitted it I expected it to do rather well but I guess indie females with a guitar can be a little bit too Lucy Spraggan for this section of the forum? Anyway, thirty second (or third) it is for this... does anyone know the tiebreak rules btw? Is it highest score or most voters?

So we're ousting three next as they all ended up with 43 points. Firstly both of the ones with long titles go at once, followed swiftly by Dan's scandi noir drama track (not sure how many it's featured in now but it's definitely at least 2!)

Two of those three received points from me!

I voted for all three of those. Sad to see them go.

I don't think UP has a specific rule on tiebreaks, the time I hosted the results I just used most votes to break the ties because of that being the tiebreak for BJSC finals. x

 

WTF at Sol Seppy being Dan??? :lol: I guess I can kind of see it fitting into the more classical / piano side of his music taste but still, I'd never have called that one.

 

A Sunny Day In Glasgow and Paul Thomas Saunders were both ones I didn't vote for but sounded better during the second listen.

I can reveal I gave 4 points to the Lunar's guide, 3 points to Siv, and 1 to The Lemon Twigs, so that's 30% gone already oops! :lol:

Four of my votes have gone now, but all of my top seven are still in!

There were 12 songs to give points to here I think

androp • Memento More with Aimer • Iz

 

Next up is Iz with a song that I'm sure most of us could guess was likely to be from him. I quite liked this one, slightly prog rock esque and really beautiful in places where the vocals intertwined... before it all exploded towards the end, definitely the type of track that UP does such a fab job of showcasing ^_^ - plus he managed to beat Jacob by 1 point!

I'm not out yet. Woo!
