May 22, 20205 yr really thought Ariana would go, that song was diabolical :D lucky she has so many stars that vote on name not song this seems again like a weird theme which favours some artists much more than others
May 22, 20205 yr Ariana ranked 8th for me and I didn't vote on name alone - a sizeable number of songs weren't for me (as you'd expect in a bad songs round) and this cover was decent :')
May 22, 20205 yr really thought Ariana would go, that song was diabolical :D lucky she has so many stars that vote on name not song If this was true she wouldn’t have went out in the 3rd round last time :P I’m surprised people think it’s that bad of a song.
May 22, 20205 yr really thought Ariana would go, that song was diabolical :D lucky she has so many stars that vote on name not song this seems again like a weird theme which favours some artists much more than others I mean Dua and Zara have plenty of options, the rest have none!
May 22, 20205 yr I think being a fan of the film (and the original song) helped with Ariana this round; I know I voted because I love the use of the song in the films it's in and so it has a personal connection with me. Also the fact that music is subjective and one person's "dud" is another person's "masterpiece" so I don't that it's fair to assume people are only voting on name alone when it may not necessarily be the case (and most certainly is not) ;o
May 22, 20205 yr Ariana was saved because it's Ariana let's just be real and that is nothing wrong with that!!! That's what fans are for!!!
May 22, 20205 yr I’m an Ariana mod and didn’t vote for her round 1 choice :lol: as Bal said, some people’s treasure is another person’s trash - the likes of ‘Pretty Girls’ and ‘Bitch I’m Madonna’ are horrendous to me but at the same time were probably another person’s favourites. This was hardly a resounding success for Ariana, she was probably bottom 3 by the end and ‘Hype’ is hardly that BuzzJack friendly with a rapper on vocals and a really noisy breakdown. Obviously can’t speak for everyone but it’s unfair to say that Ari is only through due to tactical votes Anyway, so glad that round is over :drama: :lol:
May 22, 20205 yr People were only voting Calvin due to name tbh, coz there is absolutely NO WAY anybody with fully functional working ears, would like that noise enough to vote for it against any of the other songs that featured. I'm genuinely surprised he got as high as 19 votes for that racket! :kink: --- Srs though. It's really unfair to say that Ari got through on name alone... had it been name alone she wouldn't have had her forum panicking about her performance in the contest. As for my personal take on the song, it's gorgeous. A really, really beautiful version of the song that was very much ideal for the modern retelling, live-action version of a HUGE Disney classic.
May 22, 20205 yr People were only voting Madonna due to name, because nobody else could release a song called 'Bitch I'm Madonna' :basil:
May 22, 20205 yr Um, lets not jokingly drag Calvin when none of us were making those ludicrous comments. We didn’t have much choice considering the other tracks that were allowed. Nuh Ready was and is shocking and Off the Record hasn’t exactly aged well either :shrug:
May 22, 20205 yr Btw I’m not saying the Calvin mods chose badly, this round was a nightmare for both of us and I think we both worked with what we had in the best way that we could :lol: shame someone had to get kicked out this way but I’m glad Calvin did get the chance to send some bangers along the way, ‘Slide’ was my favourite of its respective round :wub:
May 22, 20205 yr Are we really shocked that terrible songs made it through a round of 'worst singles'? :lol:
May 22, 20205 yr I really like Hype I think it does it’s job, it’s messy but gets me energetic and hype

Sorry I didn't mean to come as rude as my comment seems. I seriously have no problem if she is through because people really liked the song or because of Ariana. Either way I am happy she is saved. Is anyone else thinking that next round isn't any better than the one we just left lol. We're going from worst song to mediocre songs that failed to leave a mark in the charts lol.

Well tbf there are many great songs that have failed to be hits
May 22, 20205 yr i think this round would have worked better if it was also including DNC [did not chart] singles as well!
May 22, 20205 yr Change.org petition to include flop singles that failed to chart in the criteria #ForumRights
