November 27, 20195 yr I gave Semi 2 a spin yesterday, really don't see what's so bad about it at least comparing to the general standard this year. Having said that I do much prefer semi 1, the pop in particular is STRONG this month.
November 27, 20195 yr Voted. Semi 1 has higher highs, but there was equal amount of tracks I wanted to vote for in both semis :lol: More filler-y in Semi 2, but it's really not as awful as some have made it out to be. (Plus, it's home to the best song in this contest so... :kink:)
November 27, 20195 yr Tbh semi 2 isn't really awful in as much as it's just painfully lacking in songs I really care about - I think I like songs that are not even in my top 10 of semi 1 more than I liked the song I ranked 4th in semi 2 :lol: (just on first listen impressions ofc, I expect some semi 2 songs will grow on me more but still think my final votes are going to be very heavily dominated by semi 1). Going to do a relisten of semi 1 now and then send my votes, soz for leaving it to the last day x edit: voted now, pushed a certain song up to my 12 partly because I'm worried it might DNQ (but also because it's grown on me more)
November 27, 20195 yr Only just noticed Not Dead Yet was an AQ (yes I'm busy), I swear it's been entered before but must have been a different contest - LEDGER is a great artist anyways!
November 27, 20195 yr So I was all ready to come to Semi 2's defence before hearing it but it really wasn't great, so much so that I actually think Bahrain Unite has a chance of qualifying ;) There were a few good songs though, even if I think most of them will DNQ. Youtube also tells me I've heard Arcodesia's song before which is plausible since it was released in 2016 but I can't say I remember it.
November 27, 20195 yr Author Semi 2 was absolutely terrible, I really had to scramble to fill my 10 :lol:
November 27, 20195 yr Ahhh I am FINALLY getting round to boting in this, should have some sent off in a couple hours. x
November 27, 20195 yr Finally clocked where I remember Oslol's song from. I'm fairly sure I spent an extended amount of time watching a gif of Alyssa licking all that cream of that guy's face either on here or as a custom emoticon on MSN (*plays help the aged*).
November 28, 20195 yr Author No votes received from Skall, Holland-Oats, Wholune or United States Of Jack.
November 28, 20195 yr Oh nooo at Skall and Holland-Oats, both highlights of the semi (the latter was definitely up there with their best entries to date). :( Hoping for late votes, if they'll be accepted... Are USoJ trying to will themselves into DNQing again? :drama: (I reckon they'll qualify pretty comfortably this time and probably be fine even with the deduction but oops!)
November 28, 20195 yr Author I'll accept to a point, like if someone sends them in the morning but I think it's unfair to those who made sure to vote on time to accept it like say 12 hours plus after it closed, I didn't send reminders though I totally forgot about that
November 28, 20195 yr Wait what I thought it closed today :o I have my votes ready I was waiting to give another listen though so I’ll send them ASAP if it’s not too late :( if not that’s okay too sorry! Edited November 28, 20195 yr by Dexton
November 28, 20195 yr Author Wait what I thought it closed today :o I have my votes ready I was waiting to give another listen though so I’ll send them ASAP if it’s not too late :( if not that’s okay too sorry! Yeah that's fine, I'm still up so I'll accept and only give the 15%
November 28, 20195 yr Author Just Wholune who haven't voted now, I won't be accepting their votes now. Results will be at around 7pm Mods - is it 18 going through from each semi?? 20??
