Thanks to all who voted in the... biweekly-ish August rounds of this poll series. Time for the monthly round.

 

To participate in this please post in this thread with a ranking of all the songs using the Eurovision voting system, i.e.:

 

+12 your favourite song

+10 your 2nd favourite song

+8 ...

+7 ...

+6 ...

+5 ...

+4 ...

+3 ...

+2 your 9th favourite song

+1 your 10th favourite song

 

Please make sure you have heard all songs before voting, there aren't many of them and you should know most if not all of them already and we should have weeded out the obvious deadwood in the weekly rounds! A handy Spotify playlist is provided below if needed x

 

Here are the songs that made the cut this month:

 

Bebe Rexha and David Guetta - One In A Million

Billy Gillies - DNA (Loving You) (feat. Hannah Boleyn)

Calvin Harris and Sam Smith - Desire

cassö, RAYE and D-Block Europe - Prada

Chase And Status and Bou - Baddadan (feat. IRAH, Flowdan, Trigga and Takura)

Doja Cat - Paint The Town Red

Fred again.. and Obongjayar - adore u

Issey Cross - Bittersweet Goodbye

Jazzy - Feel It

Olivia Rodrigo - bad idea right?

 

And here's this month's Spotify playlist, clocking in at 29 minutes and 3 seconds (a few minutes shorter than the last few, the first one of these to be sub 30 minutes):

 

 

The 3 songs with the most points will qualify for the yearly round while 4th will go to a playoff round with a chance to also make the yearly round and 5th and below will be eliminated.

 

A week late starting this again so will be open for a week with results to come alongside those of the current weekly round hopefully on Sunday evening :jump:

Very close to getting 2 of even all 3 of the songs from week 34 through but alas it is still only Billy Gillies that makes it. Also a little gutted Aphex Twin didn't make the cut but then I didn't really know how I would have approached having an EP in the monthly round anyway so maybe it's for the best x Anyways, Calvin and Olivia both going for another guaranteed spot in the yearly final to join Taylor Swift in having 2 songs booked there I suppose ~

So so much weaker than last month. From the July top 10, six of them made my personal top 10, eight top 40 and nine top 100. From this list, two made my top 10 (albeit both #1's) and two charted low top 100 and that's it oops.

This certainly isn't a vintage list of songs but to be fair the month was very scant for new entries in general, only 26 the entire month! (I'm sure December will be even worse when we get to it :ph34r:)
