October 13, 20213 yr Theres not an internet Gay who was like over 14 in 2009 who doesn’t know Mini Viva. Doesn’t look it from the points but one of the easiest Veto decisions ive ever personally made
October 13, 20213 yr awww I was Caribou, just really wanted to chance it! Incredible song. Will reconfirm soon.
October 13, 20213 yr I want to love that Caribou song because the instrumental is great but unfortunately that incessant repeating vocal sample spoils it a little eek xx 'Never Let You Go' is a great song - was a top 3 hit in my chart in 2019 - but definitely not one for BJSC! (if anyone missed it at the time do check it out x)
October 13, 20213 yr Author I'm familiar with 'One Touch' (back in the 'ripping songs from YouTube to my iPod' era) and 'Never Let You Go' but 'You Can Do It' was new to me - dog lovers be sure to watch the video
October 13, 20213 yr Love the Caribou song, that was on my longlist too but their active thread on the forum made me wonder if it might be vetoed. Mini Viva are of course pop legends that disappeared too soon.
October 13, 20213 yr Well that’s my first ever BJSC veto then! I kinda was expecting it though, but Mini Viva can stay in the history books for now. Edit: Reconfirmed and awaiting another veto based on two entries being sent before from the same artist… I’ll already start looking for a third confirmation for when this gets rejected too. :lol:
October 13, 20213 yr One Touch not being on spotify is still a crime! Great taste whoever picked it :wub:
October 13, 20213 yr One Touch not being on spotify is still a crime! Great taste whoever picked it :wub: I picked it and it is on Spotify for me. :P
October 13, 20213 yr Mini Viva is no longer the most obvious veto of this contest after the reconfirmation we just received... :kink: (not yours Wardy, that one will be fine x)
