July 20, 20205 yr Author Greyson getting 4 more votes than I expected! *.* Carly really smashed that, 31 out of 40! :o
July 20, 20205 yr WD Carly, great pick for that round :clap: :wub: Greyson last :drama: (long may it continue if Joseph doesn't send white roses though xx)
July 20, 20205 yr CUT TO THE FEELING :cheer: that song is pure pop gold, one of Carly's many finest moments brilliant result for Royksopp :o
July 20, 20205 yr Hopefully Greyson won't be last every single round :') Yas Carly! One of my top three for the round (alongside Coldplay and Gorillaz)
July 20, 20205 yr Author Hopefully Greyson won't be last every single round :') I've been anticipating that since I confirmed him! :kink: but as long as people keep making discoveries, I really don't mind, because that's really what it's all about :heart:
July 20, 20205 yr Shame to see Greyson last- I didn’t vote for him myself but it was definitely not last place worthy. Carly Slay Jepsen doing exactly that and slaying!
July 20, 20205 yr Meh, ‘Cut to the Feeling’ is so overrated on here, the enunciation of the title is lowkey screechy Very good top 10 otherwise *.*
July 20, 20205 yr I've been anticipating that since I confirmed him! :kink: but as long as people keep making discoveries, I really don't mind, because that's really what it's all about :heart: I did enjoy the song but I had a lot of songs I knew very well also contending! I reckon he'll do better in the rounds where majority will be discovering as there's no headstart for other artists!
July 20, 20205 yr That's respectable to start with! Kim Petras should have done better, that song is lush pop
July 20, 20205 yr I was very close to lending another point to the Greyson underdog campaign!! As it were these results aren't too far off my own ranking, 6 of the songs I voted for are in the top 8 here so we're off to a good start (especially pleasing to see Coldplay, Gorillaz and Röyksopp all getting votes from more than half of the voters, I think it's possible that all of those are going to end up in my votes every round practically by default but I suppose we shall see!) Surprised at Carly beating Tove to the win here but I'm not mad at it.
July 20, 20205 yr that's a great first result for Coldplay woop! I enjoyed Cut to the Feeling too so WD that song x I don't think we've got an obvious choice for this round :thinking:
July 20, 20205 yr Meh, ‘Cut to the Feeling’ is so overrated on here, the enunciation of the title is lowkey screechy Vision Of Love so low, I don't get it!!! Omg, this! One of the best debut singles of all-time :wub:
July 20, 20205 yr Chuffed with that, only 3 votes behind the top 3! This next round is going to be awful for Röyksopp though - I don’t suppose final song on a stand-alone single counts?!! (Obvs not but I need to get my rule bending thoughts together)
July 20, 20205 yr :kink: at least I’ll very likely be voting for the next Carly choice :heart: #Jayde will be back on track *.* (I was quite surprised I managed to find a gif of Carly looking unimpressed, she always looks cheerful :lol: )
July 20, 20205 yr It hurts seeing one of my all time favourite songs finishing 12th, but it was expected. I hope people who hadn't heard it before liked it though :wub:
