November 6, 2024Nov 6 Well I never would have guessed that was Bré's entry... until about 45 minutes ago that is :kink: wonder if he can hold off Faithless?
November 6, 2024Nov 6 Well I've just knocked myself off the top with those votes and not sure if I'll be able to get back there but it's certainly a novel experience to be in the lead in one of these! *.* Thanks Dobbo, Jester, Lewis and Rollo for the 12s (I feel like this must be more 12s than I've got in every previous edition combined :lol: in fact I'm not immediately sure if I've ever got even a single one before) + Chez, Popchartfreak, Wardy, Jade and AH Gold for the other points so far! (thought I'd not call to attention Jester accidentally leaking that it was my entry a bit early :whistle:)

Casino vs Japan also has a good upward move after a 12 pointer! The bottom 3 remian the same yet again – can this change? Will I be last again?!
November 6, 2024Nov 6 Oh I’m pleased I don’t have to wait long before I can say that your entry was by far my fave Bré, really like it! And very happy to hand top spot immediately back to you!
November 6, 2024Nov 6 ...oh, well that neutralises my foot shooting nicely! Haha. Thanks Dandy :heart: no surprise that I'd enjoy the Faithless entry but still a new song to me and a great one at that. I did actually move it up 1 point on second listen so will see if that comes back to bite me...!

Only 2 points behind now is Archive and One Love inches towards the top 3 again behind Faithless. Cibo Matto gains points and is only 7 points away from not being last – can they do it? Exciting!
November 6, 2024Nov 6 Thank you Brer and Dandy *.* keeping my fingers crossed that Scorn can hold on to a top 10 placing until the end.

Locust lose the lead in spectacular style as Archive are now 9 points ahead of Faithless at 2! Points for the bottom 2 as well but no change in order. What will the final 2 votes hold? Who will win? The person that sent the current leader has yet to be revealed, will they shoot themselves in the foot?
November 6, 2024Nov 6 Thank you to AH Gold for the gold :wub: and Jester for the silver, plus Ansel, Lewis, Wardy, Chez, PCF, Dobbo, Bré for the other points so far! I did not expect to be in contention after not the greatest reaction in the listenthrough, so I thought being top after 5 votes and still two off the top after 9 would not last. I sometimes downgrade songs which I think are too familiar, but made an exception for 'Melt' as it's my favourite track on an album of gems :wub:
November 6, 2024Nov 6 Gah. Fun while it lasted etc. xx Thanks Jim, a low points trade this month :magic: (almost happened in BJSC as well). Archive and Faithless were both in my top 3 so double the likelihood that in the end I'll turn out to have denied myself a win...
November 6, 2024Nov 6 Thanks for the 10 points Julian, my best score so far. With the Archive entrant still to vote, this could still be very close.
November 6, 2024Nov 6 Author 17. Addy!

Any of the top 3 could win now, but it all depends on the FINAL VOTE!! *oh the drama*
November 6, 2024Nov 6 Another 12 :wub: thanks Addy! And another tense finish after BJSC last night! :o With my prediction that I'll finish bottom half also in the balance :drama:
November 6, 2024Nov 6 Author Although the results are presented in order of receipt, this is nicely tense isn't it?
November 6, 2024Nov 6 I very much expected Archive to be Addy’s entry… it was the closest to female led pop vibe that he loves so much Edit: Just realised he could very well win again, the contest master! :o
November 6, 2024Nov 6 Hmm I don't know fiesta's taste super well but I feel like it is quite pop leaning which does not bode well for chances of a last second comeback, I reckon Archive have this now. (Great entry Addy, opened the contest with a bang :heart:) Having said that his own entry was one of the less poppy ones so who knows! (Also a great entry although the cheek of submitting a YouTube link that plays the song twice :lol:) Interesting coincidence that the last two voters were the contest opener and the contest closer.
