July 8Jul 8 Author I see it's not only me being a bit of a night owl for the semi results reveals - am home now though so let's zoom through some results here shall copy Lex by announcing our first direct qualifier first...
July 8Jul 8 Author First to pick up a ticket straight to the final is...Sovarasma: JOLIN - PleasureTwo countries with less luck to be announced next o:
July 8Jul 8 Author Unfortunately we say goodbye to the following...10th (16 points) Ben's Sanctuary: Karen Harding & Shift K3Y - Morning11th (14 points) New Lexico: Dolly Style - POM POMWell after République d'Áskorza coming last in semi 2 it appears the theme of hating the mods continues, as New Lexico would be out even if I did give them 20 extra points xx (Dolly Style did in fact get a 12 though!) Karen Harding also not quite replicating her former BJSC success of 'Say Something'.2 more songs to be booted next...
July 8Jul 8 Author Also no dice for the following...8th (32 points) Summericia: MishCatt - Another Dimension9th (26 points) Flynnonda: Arthur Hill - AppetiteBoth former PopJustice Song Contest entries as it happens (although they respectively came last and 4th from last there, so not really seeing any more luck here).Our first Andra Chansen qualifier up next
July 8Jul 8 Author Living to fight another day in Andra Chansen is...Cheiron: Chase Icon - SoCal Girlwe stan a song that namedrops Reddit (not sure what that 'plandemic' line just after it is about but we'll let it slide)
July 8Jul 8 Author Also going to the Andra Chansen round is...Jadakissnia: Cannelle - WATCH ME FLYrejected from Club Bizarre to live its best life in BJFestivalen
July 8Jul 8 Author Unfortunately back to the bad news for a moment, we also say goodbye to...7th (42 points) Elëdan: sineila - X-8</3 would have got 12 points from me if I could vote here so I'm 0 for 2 on my faves making it now x (this one did unsurprisingly get almost all of its points from medal positions - a 12, a 10 and 2 8s - but that wasn't quite enough).That leaves Mothertopia vs. Pestolia vs. Scotland 2 - one gets the other Direkt Til Finalen ticket, one gets the last Andra Chansen slot and the other misses out on advancing by an agonising 2 points #spoilers...
July 8Jul 8 Author Also qualifying straight to the final is...Scotland 2: Rico Nasty & Boys Noize - Arintintin score for the Persephonia recycle! (also a Hendinia, Kluminican Republic, Thelonia and 3x Aeroche recycle, but we all know the most important past entry is my Rico Nasty one which completely bombed in its semi-final x)Mothertopia or Pestolia for the last AC position then o:
July 8Jul 8 Author And the last song to make it through to Andra Chansen from this semi-final is...Pestolia: Jae Stephens - Body FavorsPestolia throwing it back to the artist of their first ever main contest entry pays off! But it's an unfortunate near miss for:6th (44 points) Mothertopia: Say She She - Cut & Rewind5th place got 46 points (and 2nd place was only on 56 points so tight margins all around these qualifiers).~My rankings of the DNQs from this semi:1st Elëdan4th Mothertopia7th Flynnonda9th Summericia10th Ben's Sanctuary11th New LexicoWas a bit of a shame to see Say She She falling just short as I did think they were making it as I was adding up but alas! Still generally pretty good qualifiers anyway although Elëdan robbed x

Oopseee at Flynnonda losing their entire top 3 though
July 8Jul 8 Woooo glad Jae gets to fight another day! Pleased for Scotland 2 (I actually tried to send that song to the main contest but got vetoed!) and Sovarasma, I know a couple of Jolin's songs thanks to a friend's iconic karaoke renditions but not this one until now! Gutted for Eledan tho :/
