Thanks Wardy and Mothertopia, chuffed to make it into any votes at all this month with how insanely strong it was.

VOTE 15: BALEGHDE

"Greetings from Baleghde, and thank you for allowing us to join this wonderful contest. We are a small island under the crown of Kyriatine, and we're located off the coast of D'yermak'er in the Twikande Strait.

I won't bore you with any more exposition so without further ado, here are the results of the Baleghdean televote:

This was an incredibly strong final and there were no fewer than 10 songs that just missed out on getting points from us. When I say that I wanted to vote for all of these songs I am not even remotely kidding and in any other final most of these would be getting a good number of points from us, so cutting down the potentials was incredibly hard. These songs that just missed out are:

• Aeroche

• Aesthetica

• Altyr Muunilinst

• Cheiron

• Cumulonimbia

• FARC

• Jadakissnia

• Spodic Empire

• Taahino

• Terra Avium

As for the songs that did manage to land on our points table, here they are:

+01 EAST RUKAHAVIAN • Lonely Computer - Blindfold (feat. Montgomery)

+02 LAND OF DW • Carson Coma - Daddy Said No

+03 AJANAEDA • Erika Jayne - Bounce

+04 MACROMIA • Jadu Heart - U

+05 TRIFOSKI • MICHELLE - Oontz

+06 ZANMATONY • H3rizon - Soul Ties (Don't Give It Up)

+07 BRONZIL • MØ - Keep Møving

+08 PALMYRA • ESSIRAY - LOVE TYPE

+09 FSR RONTVIA • lozeak - NADA

+10 BØTANIKKÄ • Debbii Dawson - You Killed The Music

+11 LOTUNIA • GFRIEND - MAGO

+12 HENDINIA • Mae Muller - Breakaway

+13 BEN'S SANCTUARY • Zoe Wees - Traitor

+15 RÉPUBLIQUE D'ÁSKORZA • Elodie - Mi Ami Mi Odi

Finally, our 18 points go to this absolute banger which has been playing nonstop on Baleghdean radios for the past week..

+18 DANÆVIIA • Polo & Pan - Petite Etoile (feat. Beth Ditto)

Outstanding contest. Impeccable hosting. So many amazing discoveries. Can't wait to see how the results turn out!"

We're all now officially off 0 points!!! and we have a new leader!!! It seemed like Pestolia may have been running away with it already but Danaeviia are putting up a fight here.

That Pestolia entry is such a banger, glad it's in the lead so far, deserves to be one of the main contenders.

I know The Ting Tings are unlikely to be a big contender but that was such a lovely find and I had to throw my full weight behind it. Very chilled, Fleetwood Mac vibes which I didn't expect from them so thanks Jupiter!

That's exactly why I liked it, I'm a huge Fleetwood Mac fan!

Mother recognizing Momma we have to stannnnn 🥰🥰🥰

Baleghde <3

Not surprised at Dan contending, I was surprised it wasn't being more talked up (and especially that it even had some questions raised over its potential to Q in the first place) as it had all the hit ingredients - banger, crossover appeal, a distinct recognisable voice.

Thanks Cow!

Stunning Top 2 and I'll take being 4th whilst it lasts 😝

Caught up now

This is certainly not a top 2 I'd have predicted thus far x Nice to see Pestolia onto another hit though after a run of not so great results lately!

edit: and thank you Ansel for more double figure points *.* + a decent chunk from blacksquare too hooray

Dan onto another hit as I expected when I sent it (before the lack of enthusiasm in the odds) !!

not that I expect the lead to last but hopefully another top ten on the cards

More points trickling through, thanks blacksquare

but sure y’all seemed to like my experimentation during the listenthrough… 🧐 which is the truth? do y’all want it or nah

I’ve got EDM in the back burner in the event that Dan wins

if he doesn’t well… I still got that in my back pocket

Cody you are in the top 20, please shut up

We have some movement near the top since the last leaderboard but the top three stay strong. Could these three be the contenders battling it out once the final vote is tallied?!

Scotland 2 surely coming to dominate the scoreboard before long then

Doctor Blind with the 12! (I promise I didn't steal from your personal chart x)

Thank you Doctor B! Noice to still be top 10 at this stage - has been a lil while since I last had 2 top 10 hits so early in a year, I want to believe x

(long way to go tho)

thanks doctor B! 😘
