On paper the semi draw has not been kind to it - in my past 4 finals I've received 160 points from nations in this semi compared to 257 (60% more) in the opposite one


This is wild. I would have a meltdown if I tracked stats like this

SF1 must be pop-heavy? It's hopefully a benefit, so you should stand out in a semi like that 🖤

Think I already have drama as I've got everyone's votes I received in a spreadsheet, it doesn't take long to sum them and lookup against who's in each semi. First time I've felt compelled to do it though.

Haven't heard any other songs in my semi yet but I hope you're right.

BJSC 182

Binzatina - Implosion

Result: DNQ

 

(SF1: 26th, 29)

In a shocking turn of events, the majority of voters in SF1 who I didn't think would like my entry didn't vote for it, while a number of those in SF2 who I thought might like it said they would have given it points. This created some unwanted milestones - a first DNQ streak, one top 30 finish in the last 8 contests (when I managed 8 in a row not so long ago), and "DNQ" once again becomes my most common finishing position in all Buzzjack song contests with 7 occurrences, moving ahead of 2nd again. Meanwhile, my aforementioned favourite new song of 2026, which I had considered for this contest, took my 18 points and wound up in 3rd place.

Points given

18 | Kluminican Republic | Maya J'an - cul-de-sac

15 | FSR Rontvia | Niteworks - John Riley (feat. Beth Malcolm)

13 | Harmonica | MACE - espansione ✦

12 | Summericia | Kontravoid - Losing Game (feat. Chelsey Crowley)

11 | Freidland | Fright Years - Evil

10 | Pagasa | Mount Palomar - Little Fractures (feat. Pip Blom)

9 | Land of DW | L.A. Suzi - Csak Egy Tánc Volt Katie

8 | Persephonia | Band Of Horses - (Biding Time Is A) Boat To Row

7 | Yehesi | no na - work

6 | Altyr Muunilinst | Haute & Freddy - Dance The Pain Away

5 | Deandria | Project Pitchfork - Timekiller

4 | Juranabaijan | Esther Graf - darüber schlafen

Cult Of Venus - Sinner


So it's come to this: my first self-recycle. As my previous Cult Of Venus entry was the one to start my current run of only one top 30 finish in the last 8 contests, it would be ideal for her also to bring that run to an end, as a redemption for her as well as me. I've had this as a potential since its release last June, and had an inkling it might have a little more appeal than 'Algorithm' had in BJSC...

...and as I'm late typing this up, I can already confirm it has qualified! So my first DNQ streak is over and my first final points of 2026 are on the way - how many, we shall see...
