March 1, 20214 yr Author Does Exile count? #goes hides ;) I'm... not too sure :lol: I suppose so, but I think I'll add in a limit where each person can't send more than 2 tracks from the same lead artist
March 1, 20214 yr I'm... not too sure :lol: I suppose so, but I think I'll add in a limit where each person can't send more than 2 tracks from the same lead artist haha not sure myself good call on the song limit, otherwise I'd submit 5 Phoebe Bridgers songs :D
March 1, 20214 yr Author Is No Time To Die allowed in here as well then? Billie always has been, so yeah!
March 1, 20214 yr Fiona Apple - Relay Hayley Williams - Over Yet ROSALÍA - Dolerme Sevdaliza - Eden Sufjan Stevens - Make Me An Offer I Cannot Refuse ^ The threads for all of these artists are in this part of the forum so hopefully all okay!
March 1, 20214 yr Billie always has been, so yeah! The last time we did nominations for this she had when the party's over and you should see me in a crown, which is why I ask (surely bad guy would have been a strong contender to get her a second win in 2019 if we had done it then!) Expect some fairly mainstream nominations from me then when I finally decide on five.

Hmm I see what you mean, I guess with someone like Billie it would have to be on a song-by-song basis - but I think NTTD would be fine. For example with Rina, most of her music would be alright - but I'm not sure Lucid would really.

March 1, 20214 yr Author haha not sure myself good call on the song limit, otherwise I'd submit 5 Phoebe Bridgers songs :D In regards to Taylor, I think we've decided against her inclusion here as she's too big of a 'pop' name for the spirit of this competition - and it opens the doors for Afterglow etc really. A tricky decision to make!
March 1, 20214 yr I agree they are ‘pop’ artists who make some indie pop songs...but that opens it up further lol. So you can pick 5 ‘artists’ with loads of different song choices of an I reading it wrong?

I believe it is that you choose five different songs and you aren't allowed to name more than two by the same artist.
March 1, 20214 yr fair enough, Taylor is certainly a pop artist but Folklore is more indie than Ed Sheeran will ever be. my 5 then: Phoebe Bridgers - I Know the End Phoebe Bridgers - Kyoto Christine & The Queens - People I've been Sad Soccer Mommy - Circle the Drain Ex:Re - Romance
