Posted July 29, 20222 yr Thought I'd make a thread for this as it's entered at #93 on the official chart this week! :w00t:  I'm guessing the combination of the edit and longer version both doing well on Spotify Viral chart must have helped with that along with some steady iTunes sales. Here's hoping it can blow up properly soon!  KtGFByAJRQQ 'B.O.T.A’ is a supremely fun, suave, 4×4 anthem with plenty of swagger and flirtatious lyrics that permeate your mind. It’s produced by ATW Records founder Interplanetary Criminal and oozes just the right dose of playful, future nostalgia to entice you into Eliza’s mischievous world. It is accompanied by a music video that celebrates the LGBTQ+ performance community, the spaces and characters that make it, and who defy the gentrification of the area.
July 29, 20222 yr This is fab! Didn't actually realise it would be on course to even chart in the UK. Â (Also this to win BJSC this weekend!)
July 30, 20222 yr Great to see this in the chart, I hope it can climb! It gets better with every listen
July 31, 20222 yr I guess you all know what sample has been used here :rolleyes: and It's not exactly the one the most people think Edited July 31, 20222 yr by JOTA
July 31, 20222 yr A great track indeed, I'd be happy to see this become a big summer hit, very retro but fresh at the same time.
August 1, 20222 yr I know the instrumental sample very well from 2001 UK top 20 hit Sound De-Zign - Happiness which is one of my 2001 faves, which I still hear occasionally played on local radio dance shows where I am! I do like what Eliza Rose and Interplanetary Criminal have done with the sample and the vocal is quirky, and so very TikTok-friendly which has maybe helped it make the top 100 in the UK.

August 1, 20222 yr Coming to win BJSc as we speak!! Not mt cup of twa, but I can see why people like it. Made to be a tiktok kids' summer anthen.
