Two bonafide dance classics in 'Push The Feeling On' and 'ResuRection', I still play them both now.

 

'To The Moon And Back' though :wub:

ResuRection was really high in my votes too, it did well to finish as high as it did!

29. Bran Van 3000 - Drinking In LA 248pts

 

Writers - James Di Salvio, Norman Larson, Haig Vartzbedian

Top points - West 24, chrissmith276 21, marcinjaro 20

 

This only got to number 34 when it was first released in 1998 but it reached number 3 the following year after being used in a commercial for Rolling Rock lager. Bran Van 3000 had one more top 40 hit with Astounded which is currently in the final of the BJSC.

28. Jax Jones featuring Raye - You Don't Know Me 250pts

 

Writers - Walter Merziger, Arno Kammermeier, Peter Hayo, Patrick Bodmer, Uzoechi Emenike, Phil D. Young, Timucin Lam, Janee Bennett, Rachel Keen

Top points - danG 25, dutch22 25, Jason 23

 

This has done quite well after being given a wildcard into the semi-final. It samples the bassline from 'Body Language' by M.A.N.D.Y. vs Booka Shade and is one of six top 10 singles for Jax Jones.

27. Whitney Houston - It's Not Right But It's Okay 254pts

 

Writers - LaShawn Daniels, Rodney Jerkins, Fred Jerkins III, Isaac Phillips, Toni Estes

Top points - AaronTM 25, dutch22 23, vibe 20

 

From 1999, this was Whitney Houston's eleventh top 5 single. I Have Nothing finished 28th in the other semi-final so Whitney narrowly misses out on the final for a second time.

26. Britney Spears - Womanizer 254pts

 

Writers - The Outsyders

Top points - Nick F1 25, detonate 23, Alex! 19

 

This is the best performing wild card, just missing the final by one place. Britney had four songs in total and they have all gone out now. It will come as little consolation to her fans on here that Womanizer wins a tie-break over It's Not Right But It's OK by 23 votes to 22.

So, in chronological order, these are your 25 finalists. The 25th placed song had 262 points so there was a bigger gap here than in the first semi-final.

Together In Electric Dreams

Like A Virgin

Somewhere In My Heart

It Must Have Been Love

7 Seconds

Can't Feel My Face

Everything I Wanted

 

The final will start on Monday.

Another good set of results this semi! 16/25 were in my votes this time (all +6 and above; wasn't too bothered about losing the 5 below that). Should be a competitive final.
18 through from my votes which is cool, unfortunately two of my top five went out but otherwise can't complain, I thought I'd lose a few more in the end. A couple of surprising results in there too which always makes things interesting.
Pretty sure votes from me wouldn't have changed any of the qualifiers so that's a bit of a relief (maaaybe 'Womanizer' might have had a chance of barely scraping enough points from me to get through, depending on what 25th was, but I'm not hugely bothered about it really). Looks like a very strong list of qualifiers, likely would have voted for a majority of those! Particular love for all time faves 'Africa' and 'Together In Electric Dreams' which I think would have been my top 2.

17 of mine survived, only lost The Bartender and the Thief, There Goes the Fear, You Don't Own Me, Ticket Outta Loserville, To the Moon and Back, In Da Club, River Deep Mountain High and Disturbia
