February 4, 20196 yr Author FIFTEEN • 81 points Au Palais • Thrones • cucumberella Au Palais are next out in a rare occurrence of Lewwww missing a top 10 spot in anything! Just listening to this one again and I always feel like I'm going to love it and then it just doesn't quite go where I'm hoping it will - still decent but not quite up there with his own high standard of entries. Although looking at the gold medal position, I'm guessing Mr Rollo would disagree! Received: GOLD from King Rollo Bronze from West
February 4, 20196 yr Author FOURTEEN • 82 points Uq4u4MxDCJM Federica Abbate • Fiori sui balconi • Travis Always nice to see a foreign language song succeed in a contest and I think this counts as one of them as it makes it comfortably into the top half for Travis. My understanding from the translation is that the lyrics say "And I'll stay out tonight like flowers on the balconies" which is actually a rather lovely metaphor. Received: GOLD from Leonardo Bronze from Rush
February 4, 20196 yr I guessed correctly that Lewis sent 'Stargazer'! Surprised but very glad it's done so well.
February 4, 20196 yr eeee really pleased with 15th! I absolutely agree with you dandy*. it is one that I hoped would go into a huge euphoric breakdown - I think it's just a bit too amateur / lo-fi to be produced how they intended it. i'd originally confirmed it for BJSC 59 as like a 4th place backup in case i'd got vetoed with my first 3 so i'm glad it got sent somewhere in the end! thank you rollo for the gold :wub:
February 4, 20196 yr Wow, me and my top 5 (!) in the top 13! :o Almost same here! Only one of my top 5 has gone so far!
February 4, 20196 yr DÉMIRA • Dragons • MÿrtleSnow and it's been bugging me who the vocalist sounds like - I keep going back to Delores from the Cranberries but I'm not sure it is her - help me! Could you be thinking of Karin Dreijer Andersson, aka Fever Ray, singer of The Knife, and some of Röyksopp's songs like 'What Else Is There?' etc?
February 4, 20196 yr Author THIRTEEN • 84 points ApN1cZoiX4w Just A Band • Huff + Puff • Addy King Next up is a rather fun little pop entry. Without wishing to sound harsh, I really didn't want to like this one when I first heard it but the swinging clicks kind of suck you in and I ended up, well not actually giving it any points but considered it :D Well you didn't need them anyway Addy as you got a gold from Riser and DalekTurret! *.* Received: GOLD from DalekTurret32 and Riser
February 4, 20196 yr Author TWELVE • 89 points 05aGcH6-Skk Black Atlass • Shadows • Riser Next up is quite a nice little track entered by Riser, the simplicity of this one really made it stand out for me among the mix. Two things put me off it slightly, occasionally he veers a little too far towards Ronan Keating vocal territory and also the ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo bits always make me want to sing for the longest time after it which annoys me because I don't know what song that is! Anyway, well done to Riser as this was top track for two participants. Received: GOLD from Popchartfreak and NocheLuna Bronze from lewistgreen
February 4, 20196 yr Author ELEVEN • 96 points -1r_OK0TnPY Nora Medin • Spell • Cal And alas just missing out on a top 10 position is Cal. Always reliable in the taste stakes (which basically translates to being similar to mine! :D ) he once again delivers with a slow burning electro ballad noir. Only one medal placing for this (GOLD tho') but it received a fair few middle sets of points to rise it up through the field. Received: GOLD from RabbitFurCoat
February 4, 20196 yr Gosh, 12th has to be my highest finish in a couple years here, that's awesome! I discovered 'Shadows' from a radio station in Zambia of all places, glad to see it connected with others as much as it did with me :wub: Huff + Puff was the only other song I remember from this contest so I'm pretty sure I've forgotten the entire top 10 :kink:
