October 25, 20213 yr Author SEMI 1 QUALIFIER #18: l9q_KrrdEB8 Aelandor: And One - Military Fashion Show DNQ scdYtwEPYmA Eastovka: Ghost Stories - Fallen Souls 23rd • 33 points Aelandor make it through with some seriously neat synths and commanding male vocals with a slight campness to them. Just 2 Qs left for this semi now! I mean the name Ghost Stories was perfect for my Halloween vision but unfortunately hardstyle entry 'Fallen Souls' has fallen short. Told you things were close - just a 1 point jump from 24th.
October 25, 20213 yr I keep my record of never having three DNQ's in a row. :cheer: Thanks to everyone who voted for D7-D5.
October 25, 20213 yr Yay for Aelandor, a bop! Eastovka's was an improvement from their debut entry but I do have a feeling these hardstyle entries are not really ever going to be much of a winning formula here oops (then again I guess DJ Muscleboy did quite well last month). So far Dobago is the only qualifier that I predicted to DNQ (and Flynnonda vice versa) so I could be on track to have predicted 19/20 correct. Though I hope I won't because I still need Niceland to get through here. Especially because if they do go out it will have been by a very small margin as I was worrying might happen oops.
October 25, 20213 yr Happy to see Aelandor making it in! With the exception of Land of DW I think all my favourites have made it in which is quite something. As for my own entry... I don't want to call it too soon but the fact the Qs are random, the DNQs are in reverse order and I was being tipped as 'just missing out' doesn't exactly bode well!
October 25, 20213 yr Author SEMI 1 QUALIFIER #19: ybDNq6AYhRg Niceland: Bowski Island - Physical Presence DNQ S5gF6zMZmSk Greenfroze: NELL - U-Hee 22nd • 33 points (1 10, 1 8) Niceland can finally relax as indie electronic entry 'Physical Presence' has earned a spot in the final! More Swedish representation too. Ermmm yeah things are pretty close indeed - another 33 pointer falls. Unfortunately Greenfroze couldn't quite make it with male vocal K-Rock </3 perhaps it would've fared better in the other semi? Hendinia vs. POPHub for the final spot from semi 1.
October 25, 20213 yr Yay - wasn't expecting to make it in after waiting so long! A very good semi result overall then (although a shame to see Greenfroze just miss out)
October 25, 20213 yr Author SEMI 1 QUALIFIER #20: D81tB7fy7A0 Hendinia: HARLOE - PWR RNGR (feat. Mick Jenkins) DNQ qoqA-th1ZPE POPHub: CL - Lover Like Me 21st • 34 points Congratulations to Hendinia who fly into the final with their disco-tinged pop entry! Poor POPHub :( was it just meant to be that CL, former member of 2NE1, has finished in position 21? This was an agonising 1 point off qualifying </3 I'll post the DNQ spreadsheets later. That's all of semi 1 done then, will move straight on to semi 2, time is flying already :drama:
October 25, 20213 yr Oh yay for Niceland being through after all *.* this song kind of sounds like what Dermot Kennedy would be if Dermot Kennedy made interesting music. Which I promise is a good thing. x Aw at Greenfroze being so close though as that was one that only just missed my votes D: a second good Greenfroze entry in a row, again just unlucky to have been in a really strong semi for me. Eek at Hendinia's Q streak being in the balance now.
October 25, 20213 yr Ah glad that Hendinia are through, this didn't deserve to be the one to end their streak, it's one of their better entries of late imo! Although oops poor brave POPHub, really not catching too many breaks of late - 'MTBD' is one of my favourite K-Pop entries but unfortunately can't really say I was vibing much with this one :( From my votes: 12 QUALIFIED 10 QUALIFIED 8 QUALIFIED 7 QUALIFIED 6 QUALIFIED 5 QUALIFIED 4 QUALIFIED 3 QUALIFIED 2 LOTUNIA 1 SKALL 11th Greenfroze 13th Elëdan 14th Flynnonda 24th Eastovka 25th Land of DW 26th POPHub 27th East Rukahavian My top 8 and my lower midtable sweeping up all the qualification slots basically. x My apologies to Freeze as I could have quite easily nudged NELL up a couple of slots and it wouldn't have affected the results of Lotunia and Skall at all oops. </3 Predicted 18/20 qualifiers correctly in the end, just had Flynnonda and POPHub over Dobago and Niceland! Shall see how my crystal ball fares with semi 2. x
October 25, 20213 yr I lost just two from my vote: 12 Q 10 Q 8 Q 7 Q 6 Q 5 Flynnonda 4 Q 3 Q 2 Q 1 Land of DW
October 25, 20213 yr Author AUTO-QUALIFIER: OS4nqQVqEEM Jadakissnia: Darkov Strange - 0 SEMI 2 QUALIFIER #1: hYU64Sr7isE Harmonica: Jocelyn Alice - Still Wondering Don't mind me continuing to pimp my AQ so Harmonica can have some company in this post. Jocelyn Alice qualified for Harmonica way back in BJSC 77 with 'Jackpot' and now she's good news for them once again!
October 25, 20213 yr Shall see how my crystal ball fares with semi 2. x So far the answer to that is 'badly' as Harmonica is already a bit of a surprise qualifier here for me!
October 25, 20213 yr +12 Q +10 Q +8 Q +7 Land of DW: Something For Kate - Blue Bird +6 Q +5 Q +4 Q +3 Q +2 16. Greenfroze: NELL - U-Hee +1 Q Very happy with that result, particularly as it was one of the best semis I've been in in a long time.
October 25, 20213 yr Author SEMI 2 QUALIFIER #2: tnpUv1Vj5MA Aesthetica: LOOΠΔ - HULA HOOP QUALIFIER #3: wMGyY6ufADE N DNTN: Eartheater - Scripture K-Pop fares much better in this semi so far as 'Hula Hoop' has captured the hearts of enough to progress! From K-Pop to Art Pop... N DNTN can relax early on in the semi 2 reveals, as can those who have been cheering for it in the thread so far. It's nice to be able to do these doubly positive posts at the moment.
