February 28, 20214 yr Rob's 18 saving my spot in the top ten, thank you so much <3 I was rather overhyped in the end, but I basically did as well as I initially could have expected before the hype train started rolling and I'm elated to get a top ten so soon into the year, and with reliable Scandipop that admittedly completely apes Florence and Lana so much that she sounds like a tribute act. But I couldn't ignore such a huge chorus. Well done Altyr, it's definitely a solid pop track! I did think Bøtanikkä would get it, but it's another runners-up slot for Cam. Great to see Cumulonimbia do so well, the surprise package of the evening but it is wonderful. I really wish FARC had gone top ten, it's so stunning, but I guess that subtle shimmering electro Scandi sound winning is in BJSC's past now, sadly. Nothing I'm gobsmacked about in the bottom ten but Ojnoj deserved way more than it got. Thanks for the really fantastic hosting Dan, I would so love to win again one day so I can host again, but while the hype is often there the results never *quite* go all the way :lol:
February 28, 20214 yr wow there was the potential to DNQ in that semi then! explains the poor plug reaction! but yesss semi 2 coming thru for me <3
February 28, 20214 yr as if it's not gonna be between botanikka and altyr, those seem like the most obvious winner contenders to methis is why y'all should trust me!!! Congrats John! Fantastic song to round out 100 entries for Altyr, and I've slowly become such a huge fan of your output since then! Also yay for Addy getting a medal position for the first time in a while! Yay for Erika Vikman getting top 10, looks like the mini rebrand worked! :cheer: pophub getting last is :blink: (and jadakissnia flopping is not on) but otherwise some decent results!
February 28, 20214 yr (proper post) As frustratingly close to winning/an AQ as that was, I am extremely pleased with 3rd, I wasn't prepared to believe the hype even though I did feel a bit more confident in this one (I mean she had a top 5 fairly recently so yeah bit cheap etc.) as you just never know when you're so familiar with an entry! The album was really good and quite different to her other entry sent here that I had to give it go so I'm really pleased it was a great discovery for so many. This is my first top 10 in exactly two years and one of my best performing entries so I can't really complain, thank you very much all who voted, you've all been too good to me with these recent song contests *.* I won't lie, the top 2 did not appeal to me at all, I barely remember how either go, but it's not like that's the first time that's happened, I was so spoilt for choice with my favourites in the top 10 last month, I guess we have to balance things out :kink: Congrats to John on a fourth win and what a great time to do it on your 100th! Very pleased to see Cumulonimbia do so well as I didn't expect it, and great for Oslol and Land of DW too. My own favourites were all a lot lower down this month, but most of them performed somewhat decently. The only real disappointment is Rolloland, I really thought that could be another top 10 :( Thanks Dan, goes without saying, but utterly flawless hosting throughout!
February 28, 20214 yr Well done Altyr Muunilinst! Well deserved win!!! And thanks to our host - it was a job well done!!!
February 28, 20214 yr Congrats to Altyr Muunilinst, your song got 6.2 out of 10 from me which is a low score but there were a few other songs behind it. It looks like if I had been drawn in semi 2, I would have been well away from qualifying for the final. Thanks to all who gave points to my song. And thanks to Dan for doing such a fantastic job as host.
February 28, 20214 yr Oh wow, that was quite a difference between semi and final for me :o I did notice a slightly more positive reaction in the final listenthrough than the semi so maybe that came into it x
February 28, 20214 yr Final scoreboard matches mine apart from Hendinia's score (it's at 178.5 after the deduction so should just barely round up to 179 x) ~ Cam really seems cursed to 2nd place, 'Diane' of course coming 2nd here before and now 'The Otherside' has come 2nd both here and on PopJustice :lol: A little torn on whether I'm disappointed that Rein just missed out on 2nd or relieved that Chez doesn't have to add another 2nd place to his list, happy it managed a top 3 anyway! Have enjoyed both of the Rein entries but this one definitely wound up being comfortably better than 'Electric' for me so happy that's reflected in the result. The top 10 ended up actually being a little worse than it was at the halfway mark for me as I only voted for 3 of them but then I voted for 7 of the top 10 last month so I suppose a less favourable bunch was due :lol: Great to see Land of DW making the top 5 (wasn't really on my radar as a hit but makes sense in retrospect!) and Oslol getting a top 10 to make up for their undeserved flops in the last two contests. I wasn't huge on either of their songs this time around but also cool to see Cumulonimbia matching their peak and Zanmatony returning with their first ever top 10 (though just a tiebreak away from coming 11th a third time, lucky)! Beyond that, very pleasing to have Dobago and Vülkyria both making the top 20 (being a bit of a broken record but again take that people who predicted them to DNQ xx) and Danæviia up there too even though they faded quite a lot from earlier on in the results. Ngl I was kind of expecting Silver Sphere to do a bit better (I'm surprised that my own entry beat it!) but I guess good to know I didn't screw myself out of a huge hit, rather just another midtable. Aw at Jadakissnia being only low top 30 as I initially thought this would have been another pretty solid hit oops (it was top 10 on PopJustice). Biggest disappointment though is Rolloland being only 33rd, though this is the second month in a row that my 18 has been a song I convinced myself would do pretty well and then made very little impact, I guess they've just been a little bit too niche! A very unremarkable semi-final result, looks like I actually did slightly better than my projected final position even though I thought my semi was pretty perfect for my song :thinking: Thanks for the hosting Dan, excellent as usual from you <3
February 28, 20214 yr semi results are interesting! the winner literally storming ahead too. i knew pop would come back fighting this month! thanks dan for a great contest, you’ve been super fab!
February 28, 20214 yr I don't get either of the top 2 this month unfortunately but a huge congrats to John nevertheless! I loved 3rd place at least <3 30th is disappointing but I guess my D&B style entries aren't hitting in a big way nowadays, with BETHY languishing in the 30s too. Ah well... onwards and upwards! Thanks Dan for being a superb host ^_^
February 28, 20214 yr coming back next contest with a vengeance just listened to a couple of the top 10. the bagarre track mG! congrats on the win John x
February 28, 20214 yr LOVA and Cam were actually right next to each other in my ranking - my top 2 matches the overall top 2 if you ignore my entire top 26 :cheer: :kink:
