February 2, 20232 yr Oh my god!! It's a new highest position to begin the year yasss :w00t: :w00t: Thanks Dan, Lewis, Jake(?) and Pav for the 18 points!!! Marvellous hosting from Haus! I'm really surprised at the support of pop bloc this edition... I think the most this edition! Congrats Summericia! It's a great winner, while Suedonia is a highly inspired retro track which is catchy and I didn't expect to see it come 2nd! Hendinia got my kiss of top 10 death again after hyping his pop entry oops x :kink: Next edition we're coming to win again!!
February 2, 20232 yr Suedeonia's song was only released a couple of months ago! (although not too surprised to learn it's a cover of an older track - giving a listen to the original now, I am still enjoying it but agreed that Levellers' version is better anyway, not quite as keen on the vocals on the original and it's a little lower energy in general).
February 2, 20232 yr Congrats Roba, unfortunately yet another winner that missed my votes, but not by much, it had some really interesting vibes to it. Great to see Suedeonia behind it though, that was a clear highlight of this contest and I'm really pleased so many others thought so. Bal, excellent hosting, I really enjoyed the commitment put into it and the stylising of this contest and working around site outages and such is all really impressive. god I'm glad Skall and Eledan got their votes in, I figured they'd be among my strongest supporters but that was over a third of my points there! I honestly thought "Déconstruction" would have a far wider appeal than that, but thank you to those that did really enjoy it, I barely gained ANY voters from Semi 2 even after scraping through Semi 1 so I guess that's a really lucky qualifier in retrospect even though I was very confident throughout, there's such a great power in its build. Seeing Utopia and Persephonia in the bottom 5 with me is also really unfortunate to see, my votes were so dominated by semi 1 that outside of my 18 to Jadakissnia, 5 to Aeroche and 1 to Askorza, those two were nearly the only qualifiers from semi 2 I was on board with - what on earth was up with that semi xx anyway, on to my next plan to wrestle voters into voting for me
February 2, 20232 yr Congratulations for the B2B win, Roba! I still prefer your previous winning entry though. Talking about the artist you sent, one of my possible next entry might be a band that had Iqbal as one of their former members. ^_^ Very pleased to see Suedeonia finishing 2nd and Jadakissnia 5 points behind the top 10 too. Such a shame we dropped to the bottom 10 during the last point revelations. However, we're glad we still got several appreciations. Thanks for voting, Wardy, Mack, WoW, Kingdom of Horanius, Rollo, Lewis, Ben, Joop, Riser, Jake, Dobbo, Cody, Popchartfreak, Uhsting, Pete, Frank, diva the muffin, and Freeze! Thanks HAL for the hosting!
February 2, 20232 yr Highly enjoyable contest, thanks for hosting Bal and congrats to Rob on your double win! Lot of Rd‘Á votes from countries that don’t typically send us points which was really nice to see! Thanks all, glad to send something y’all enjoyed!
February 2, 20232 yr All caught up now, sorry I missed it live I was down by the river 'O'! Thanks for the fab 2001 hosting Bal, and congrats to Rob, Simon and Kath for the medal slots!
February 2, 20232 yr This is a DISGRACE Brer had the best song in the contest, and it has been revealed to me, through a series of Ayahuasca visions, that it MASSIVELY FLOPPED, being just 3 points off the YEAR END BOTTOM THREE!! INCREDIBLE!!! A YUUUGE MASSIVE BOP BEING JUST THREE POINTS SHY FROM THE LOWEST THREE OF THE YEAR?! I CANNOT EVEN WHAT EVEN IS THIS ... TASTE?!
February 2, 20232 yr Thanks for all the love for RHODES. I am so happy with 28th tbh a lot better than i thought. I got a couple of medal points from D'yermak'er and singer which im so happy about but also very happy with the points i got. Fantastic winner from Summercia, loved their song so much. Well deserved. Séyetana and FARC did not deserve bottom 2. Flawless hosting as expected Bal thanks for the fun contest 💙

INCREDIBLE!!! A YUUUGE MASSIVE BOP BEING JUST THREE POINTS SHY FROM THE LOWEST THREE OF THE YEAR?! I CANNOT EVEN WHAT EVEN IS THIS ... TASTE?! Omg THIS! DISGRYIACE! Cannae believe mah sang should have won but was held back by Jonas' signed CDs and ended up finishing bottom 3 like 4th-6th from last :/
February 2, 20232 yr Am lost for words! I can't believe the queen K came 3rd! BJSC voters to win Hero of the Month poll tbh :heart:
February 2, 20232 yr Thanks to our wonderful host, and congratulations to the winner, and other medalists! I had hoped Maan and her boyfriend Karel would do a bit better, but am pleased some of you enjoyed it! See you all next round!
February 2, 20232 yr Author Posting here as Haus now finally, not HAL :kink: Thank you all for the kind words for the contest - I was initially v nervous about undertaking the task especially while moving house, but it turned out to be great fun and I loved every second of it. I loved the music too - so many stand out moments. A huge congrats to Rob - the song has grown on me massively as I saw the votes coming in and deciding to check it out again. Well done :wub: I hope you all enjoyed the contest and now I am hyped for 152! :cheer:
February 3, 20232 yr Sorry for the lack of engagement from me on the results night, but a huge thanks to the 16 different people who gave Zanmatony points in BJSC 151, especially Harmonica for the unexpected gold medal! I genuinely did not make any real effort with the find for this contest, and it was a very surprising result, but I am glad many of you enjoyed the nostalgic trip and thank you so much for the semi-final voters who helped me finish 6th! :o A big thanks to our host HAL who put in an inspired presentation, and it will be remembered for the BuzzJack award honors at the end of this year I am sure! :D Congratulations to our friends from Summericia for a consecitive vistory, clearly everyone is trying desperately to keep you in the competition so you get no rest! :P
February 3, 20232 yr Congrats Rob! Always impressive for an AQ to win and obviously back-to-back wins is amazing :o Equally amazing result for Suedeonia, 2nd is way above and beyond what I expected for their song, even as much as I love it! Also very happy for Kathaldazia even though I couldn't fit 'Out Of Luck' in my votes, and Sovarasma as high as 6th is also a major but very welcome surprise! Justice for Conoria, Bhangra, and Ben's Sanctuary, none of which deserved bottom 10 or anywhere near, but all three were brilliant discoveries so thank you for sending them <3 Thanks Bal for hosting, I've never watched 2001: A Space Odyssey but I can still appreciate a well-executed theme *.*
