October 23, 20204 yr Do we really think that I wouldn’t have entered Come Over months ago if Dagny was capable of getting past the veto????
October 23, 20204 yr Bye bye baby is pop PERFECTION. I’ve been obsessed with it the last couple days and that/Somebody are the highlights of her terrific album y’all should check out!! (Nope it wasn’t me who sent it as I knew Dagny is a surefire veto at this point aha!)
October 23, 20204 yr Camden Cox :o I wanna know who tried it...it's amazing song though but yeah, I tried sending her as well 4 months ago although with different song!!!
October 23, 20204 yr Maybe because Come Over was a single. Not an album track that you've just thrusted 7pts because you want to get rid of Dagny for her name despite the song not having a single article dedicated to it, but werk I guess x I will return for my THIRD OPTION some time tomorrow.
October 23, 20204 yr Gah. I thought it'd toe the line a bit. But nobody had commented in the thread since the albums release before I confirmed it. </3 I thought being an album track would make it less likely to be one. Reconfirmed with my original option.
October 23, 20204 yr The album tracks are admittedly a grey area (I was pretty 50/50 on vetoing them) but surely you have to have known that those entries would be at best loopholing their way through. xx
October 24, 20204 yr Ok wow that Dagny track is absolutely gorgeous. I've had Somebody on repeat for the past few months but her follow-ups haven't been quite as strong. Why hasn't she released BBB as a single yet??
October 24, 20204 yr nvm, Aesthetica is probably out now unless i find something else quick since my only option was taken! Edited October 24, 20204 yr by travis

October 24, 20204 yr No way, I’m in :D Slightly gutted about Annie but they all seem fair. MNEK is :lol: though, how many BJSC entrants have performed on Strictly in the past fortnight :kink: Edited October 24, 20204 yr by Thom Kerewolf
October 24, 20204 yr Dagny’s album is the best thing that’s been released this year to be honest. Bye Bye Baby would’ve been a great entry for whoever tried to confirm it! Please Look at Me is *even better* though, in my opinion!
October 24, 20204 yr The album got a front page write up on BBC News you can’t really get more exposure than that. The album is full of smashes but this one is defo not one of my faves at the Moment
October 24, 20204 yr I was drunk last night tbf. I don’t really take issue with you getting rid of Dagny BUT I think there is something to be said for two album tracks being vetoed because of the name of the person the song is tied to has received attention, but the first song I confirmed was triple confirmed and it remains - it is a song contest and not an artist contest after all.
October 24, 20204 yr What’s the point in entering a song so many people have already heard anyway lmao
October 24, 20204 yr Not sure what that’s a response to but I’m not sure how we’re supposed to know what other people have listened to, my crystal ball has broken recently.
