lmao not the uber tie 😂

Well done Addy! Obviously I knew how this was going to pan out with my votes being last but I'm more than happy with Borderline finishing second, I Trance is a great track. I honestly moved Agnes up to 3rd from 4th in my votes at the last moment(!) but equally I probably do like it more than the songs in my top 2 so on another day I could have easily given it more, so definitely no hard feelings... plus it would have been weird for a song that was nobody's favourite to have won.

this really should be shared, like no joke!!!

I would like to give the half of the badge to @dandy* <3

Thank you <3

I actually up'ed Tove's points from 4 to 7!!!

And so that is all. Congratulations to Addy! for winning pretty much the only song contest he hadn’t already won, and to dandy* and Roba. for coming so close.

Thanks for the votes for little Clara - if I had to lose my Top 10 streak losing it with 12s from Rollo, Jim and dandy* was a very respectable way to do it! And congratulations Jim on maintaining your Top 10 streak!

Thank you all so much for participating: it’s been huge fun and I look forward to AddyBop next time!

Wow, well what a show. Well done Addy, for me it was probably the obvious winner, the most critically lauded and well loved song here and I'm more impressed that anyone even managed to run it close! Obviously it's a great track, Agnes never puts a foot wrong, she's incredible.

My top two third and second - proud of them, especially Rob with basically an unknown song there, an amazing discovery. How did I not know of this Zero 7 lore. Guess it would have stung it Tove had won after I'd dropped her but Borderline is amazing and a worthy second.

Diana was my prediction for third so fourth is nearly there, I'm happy with my predictions and making some decent guesses (and very bad ones).

Nice to see Ruti make the top five there too, a quality number and meaning I voted for the top six, which is very rare!

Good to see Clara creep up so much, that was a lovely host entry and deserved to maintain a top ten streak for our brilliant host. Thank you for this great theme and show!

I will take 50 points and not bottom five as it was looking a bit disastrous until this evening! Thank you to all the voters, glad it found some fans in the end. There is a radio edit of the song and a music video but I think it's very badly hacked down compared to the album version so decided to go video-less!

There really should be an Addy Idol contest! He clearly is BuzzJack's Song Contest Idol!

It is not lost on me that I had Tove confirmed and then dropped her ha.

I actually tried to confirm White Light Moment first of all too... even in my PM I think I said that I thought you'd have gone for the same song haha! I then went for Gabriels before realising that the song was too new to be within the rules... so I literally only ended up taking part because you switched, I'd gone on holiday so didn't have chance to find anything else and then Julian PM'd to say my original choice of artist was now free

Oh my, #JerdandJonjoDecide 😱 congrats Addy on the win! 'I Trance' was a big favourite for me back in 2019 and I enjoyed revisiting it in this contest.

Glad 'Breathe' picked up a little bit after a very slow start, not too shabby for a B-side. Thanks to everyone who pointed - especially Addy, Cody and vibe for the medals 💗

Thank you Julian for hosting!

I was quite taken aback that I had ZERO recollection of the Buzzjack 10 years spin-off it was sent to in 2016. I guess you enter so many of these things you're bound to forget some. Weirdly it only finished 17th there but it was up against some of the greatest songs of all-time. Either way, I didn't want to repeat something that had already had its turn in a Buzzjack contest, so I'm glad you went with Borderline instead (and entered!!)

It was a beautiful entry! I actually also considered something much boppier that would likely have done better too, but this just felt more me. I guess it wasn’t the contest for unknown gems but I think we can feel good for broadening the field.

Congrats Addy! You’re on fire in these contests! Very worthy winner! Well done dandy* too on getting super close! I’m very happy with 7th - I was expecting a flop after yesterday’s results so thanks to all who voted! Damaged remains that bop! ❤️

Amazing hosting Julian!! As said before, my favourite theme so far! 👏🏼👏🏼 Looking forward to Addy’s Bop Idol 5! ❤️

Surprised at Saara actually ending up finishing higher than Only the Young after how the results were looking last night well done @Addy!, will you do the double this weekend? 👀

This was a very enjoyable contest, brilliant hosting Julian

Thanks everyone <3

OMG first and foremost, I am really happy for the win and congrats to Dandy as well (I really loved Tove), albeit I feel like so over exposed that I have now to host all three contests; Nuggets, UP and now this

But seriously, thanks everyone for your love and votes.

And last but not least, thanks @Julian_ for the amazing theme and for doing wonderful job with hosting

Congratulations Addy and bad luck Dandy on just missing out. 12th place is a respectable finish for my entry.

Thanks Julian for doing a fantastic job hosting a contest for the first time.

Also I would like to say that I was shocked no one was after Agnes :o (or did I miss that someone else tried confirming her after me?)

I rushed confirming her, so rushed that I went with 'Balenciaga Covered Eyes' at first 🫣, until Julian PM reminding me of rules

Nobody else tried Agnes at all actually. Maybe like me they didn’t actually know she started out on a talent show. 😆

Well done Addy. Agnes is so fab so can't really complain about her winning and she was my 7 pointer. Tove's was good as well so a great top 2 albeit expected one.

Chuffed with 3rd. Thanks to all of you who pointed it. Didn't expect to land on Bo Bruce necessarily when this theme came up but here we are. Though I was listening to another song of theirs 'Symmetry' and was set on sending that but then clicked onto this one and it having a raw and deep video to boot influenced a quick change of mind.

Pleased to see fellow mod Scene with me in the top 10 too and my 12 pointer in Dami also there too. Glad Nolwenn did well for Rich and relieved Christina wasn't last in the end!

Really impressed by the level of hard work put into this Julian! Top work.

Addy! has been on a roll with 3 first places within the past year!

And... I was not surprised about my entry after hearing the others (though I could cut down on the self-deprecating, gotta be extra careful).

Only just catching up with this now, what a dramatic finish Congrats to @Addy!, you really know how to win a BJ song contest! And thanks to @Julian_, exemplary hosting!

Thanks to @Calum for my only 12 points, Only The Young did not deserve to finish that low. I actually sent Girls Aloud's 'Miss You Bow Wow' first, until I was told that it had already been sent to a song contest on Buzzjack years ago. Apparently it only finished 27th out of 29th though so maybe it was a blessing in disguise that I had to reconfirm!

Anyway I'm already looking forward to Bop Idol 5
