Sunday at 19:503 days Author BJSC 187tlen - patnikSo... we teased a fun indie pop sound this time but that didn't quite pan out in the end! This was the song we originally tried:...however, we lost out to daine by milliseconds, truly rotten luck 😭 here is a screenshot of the time stamps provided by our wonderful hosts in Skall:This is only the second time we've ever been beaten to an entry, following 'Get This Right' by Koven way back in 2015, which eventually finished 3rd - while we DNQed.The story didn't end there for daine, as after all that, she was vetoed! I attempted 'PQC' but three other posters instead tried her song 'Love Love (Love Love)'. We imagine this would have performed better than our choice but we had to go with the one we loved most. Never mind! It was time to turn our attention to a back up and we did a handbrake turn, from summer indie pop fun to a track with 'death' and 'existential' in its tags...! Very on brand.We did not even know that Bulgarian post-punk music was a thing, alas, a YouTube crawl allowed us to discover the fantastic 'patnik' by tlen, also stylised as 'пътник' by тлен on streaming. We've unexpectedly gone a bit rock bloc with a build-up once again but this was too irresistible. We hope this back-up choice will find its fans! This can be found in slot 4 of semi 2.
