Hadn't heard of SASAMI before but I love that someone's gone for a lesser known name, and it's a gorgeous song!

@jimwatts still to vote in this category as a participant. For any non-participants that want to vote the deadline has been brought forward slightly to 18:59 on Tuesday (BST)! All three categories are very tight at the moment 👀

Listened to each song a few times. The known songs still hit more

Ellie Goulding is probably my fave artist here but that’s not a great choice. I hope she makes it through so I can throw her more points though.

I’m glad a few of you enjoyed my entered song, but I think it’s clear I don’t need to think of any more entries… 😔

(Sorry for being dejected but it’s a bit rough to see so many last or second last places. Maybe I’d feel a bit less despondent if there were at least some “I may have ranked it low but I liked it” comments lol 🥺)

I ranked it high because Louise has so many other songs I want to see represented in this event! GIVE HER ANOTHER ROUND PLEASE!!!

Have you considered non-elim as host Calum? I guess it defeats the purpose of a knock-out competition but it will be a shame to lose someone like Louise who has loads to offer. I do just think that this newer song stands out as a bit generic compared to the stuff it's up against. A 90s Louise hit probably would've been a much bigger contender for higher points for me. I'd be happy to discover 8 songs from each of these ladies, and it doesn't take long to whisk through 8 songs per round thanks to Wardy's playlist. Awww :(

EDIT: Recent song wise, I know that Jay is fond of 'Lead Me On' and that's such a wow. It'll be a shame if none of yous get to listen to it.
