ROUND 14: A UK top 40 hit single

> A single that reached any position from #11 to #40 <

 

Our likely choice for this round would've been... 'Into You' :heart: its underwhelming peak was finally good for something :lol:

 

We had such good potential picks for the final rounds of this.

 

It's such a shame we couldn't have sneaked through a couple more rounds so we could bring our big guns out :(

Omg the LANDSLIDE that would've gotten in this round :lol:

Yeh, we would have won. And I don't even know the competition. B-) :lol:

Well I’ll be honest as I mod for Rihanna forum this is one time I’m glad that Ari left the forum contest as she’d have definitely beaten us.

 

This round is kinda really strong and stronger in general for certain forums who’ve left to be honest.

 

Into You would have really slayed in any round to be fair even as a free choice it would’ve guaranteed many votes but for this theme it was definitely the best song to use!

So my dream final would have been..

 

Bad Romance vs. no tears left to cry

 

</3

So my dream final would have been..

</3

That would've been absolutely brutal :cry:

Ariana was unlucky in this to be honest.

 

Theme wise to an extent they kinda all suited her! It’s not surprising she’d fall victim to a Free Choice kinda round.

 

no tears left to cry would’ve put up an amazing fight has it made the top 2 though. One of the most universally liked songs across this entire site.

Indeed, we had fan favourite album track options for both bonus tracks and an album closer, then one of her most popular songs on here for this top 40 single round! I was worried about the 'Beauty and the Beast' round, but once we made it past that it looked like we had such a strong future in the competition. Unfortunately, that wasn't taking into account what other forums were sending! Ah well, it's been an interesting learning experience, 'no tears left to cry' to get its moment next time <3

Into You would have by FAR been my number 1 over these 4 options </3

ROUND 14: A Missed Opportunity

> A song that should have been released as a single <

 

Our likely choice for this was going to be two-time 'should've been a single' winner 'Greedy' :wub:

 

:wub:

 

It would be very dependant on what gets sent, but a HIGH chance that this would have scored points from me!

Ariana's lack of taste in her own music would have proved very useful in this round! :lol:

 

'Greedy' would have been my number one option but there's several album tracks that should have been singles!

You know what... I think 'Greedy' would have been top 2 for me! Gaga would be #1 but I think I prefer 'Greedy' over 'Breakin' Dishes' & 'Love Thing'!

‘Greedy’ would’ve been #1 for me amongst this line-up - my favourite Ariana album track :wub:

ROUND 16: FREE CHOICE

> Any song by your artist. Final round. GO OUT ON A HIGH. <

 

This final round was of course time for... 'no tears left to cry' :wub:

 

no tears left to cry would be a very hard song to go up against with in a head to head vote!

 

It’s one of the most universally liked tracks on this site! A definite great choice to leave till the end but a shame it was never used as it would’ve probably won if you did happen to use it earlier.

 

It’s funny because since Arianas elimination I’d have voted for her like every single round yet when she was in the competition I often didn’t vote for her despite loving her!

So pleased with how some of those choices did! Like 'Be Alright' 2nd and 'ghostin' 3rd :wub:

 

Rank all of our AF Idol entries here :heart:

Omg Jade I’m so glad you didn’t go out on Beauty and The Beast!

 

Ariana could’ve been runner up had she gotten through that round you went out on your future choices were all stellar!

 

You did great though :heart:

Tbh, it's a great result for Ari! I just don't get why Giaw reaction is so underwhelming on here :\
