We finally reached the semi final! Which of these two would make it through the final? You decide!

Same as the previous round, please vote for 2 of your least favorite tracks. Due to my lateness again, the deadline has been moved to Tuesday, August 29th at 12pm BST.

6. Diamond Heart (with Sophia Somajo) [6 votes, 33.33%]

Released in 2018 as the 6th single of Different World, Alan teamed up with Swedish songwriter-producer Sophia Somajo. A lot of fans speculated that this song is a collaboration with Sia, but then revealed it wasn’t. Somajo should be popular among Britney fans, for she has written several songs for her and some popular acts like Backstreet Boys, Adam Lambert, Christina Aguilera (under her pseudonym Tiffany Amber), Tove Styrke, and Robyn. She has also been sent to BJSC three times by three different nations. Diamond Heart also performed well in Scandinavian countries, peaking at #1 in Norway, #2 in Finland, and #11 in Sweden. The song has been streamed 253 million times on Spotify, currently becoming Alan’s 11th most streamed song.

5. The Spectre [5 votes, 27.78%]

Released in 2017 as a non-album single (and exclusively featured in Faded Japan EP), Alan remade his 2nd NCS hit,

. It contained uncredited vocals by Norwegian songwriter and producer Jesper Borgen. The song peaked at #5 in Norway and #22 in Sweden. It has also been streamed 360 million times on Spotify, becoming Alan’s 8th most streamed song. However, it was in YouTube where this song is massively popular, for it has been viewed 1 billion times on Alan’s channel and become his only 3 songs that reach the billion views squad.

Playlists:

I quite liked it as the follow up to 'Faded' at the time but checked out the other two (pretty sure I've heard 'Alone' before too) and so my vote goes to 'Sing Me To Sleep' as it's not as good now!

Sing Me To Sleep and Alone!

Alone and Darkside

3 days to go. 12 voters by today, the highest number so far in this survivor!

Oh I missed the fact that it was vote two out... and it went through with me voting for one there too. 'Darkside' would be my other option!

So the final might be the truly horrible Sing me To Sleep and the fantastic Faded. Why on earth people like that trash? C´mon.

It's not surprising given they're his two most successful songs commercially. I'd much rather it was Faded v Alone

I'm opening this until midnight in case anyone's still want to vote. I'm quite tired atm.
