14 hours ago14 hr 'Lovesick' by Emily Osment aka Lilly from Hannah Montana - what a throwback!! That was in my first ever personal chart back in 2011 *.*
14 hours ago14 hr Ooh a mini final awaits! Kicking off semi two haven’t done that in a while. Definitely no chance of giving you Whiplash if I set the pace!Don’t know many of the songs but big shout out to Tropicana Bar which is 100% the best thing Nova May has done so far ❤️Also ‘Lovesick’ is such a random song to send now in 2025 but I’m here for it!
14 hours ago14 hr I knew it. Bøtanikkä coming for the win againBig love to FSR Rontvia and Skall with those choices 🖤I know quite a few in SF2, not quite as many in mine. Looking forward to dive into them x
14 hours ago14 hr BIRDBRAIN! looks like most of the artist names I recognise are in semi 2 but plenty that looks intriguing across both
14 hours ago14 hr Hyped to kick off the semi!Summer Rain was confirmed all the way back in the 9th contest when entry changes were public and then nobody ever sent it in the end I don’t think. It’s a Clubland classic so hope it gets some appreciation!I’m familiar with Moviestar and the song by my former entrant Jude York but don’t know too many here!Really surprised nobody entered anything by Grace!!
14 hours ago14 hr rip big fat finalI was surprised mine wasn't double confirmed tho its a great track! hopefully gets some crossover appeal
13 hours ago13 hr Death slot but quite happy with that draw for one of my poppiest entries!I did wonder if 'Moviestar' would be entered - I mentioned it in the same Pop Track Of The Week thread that 'Super Love Me' appeared in months ago, and it's since gone to #3 in my personal chart - I was tempted to enter it myself, even if to switch to my current entry at the last minute so as to reserve it for a future contest, but I didn't - good luck with it Josh! I've also charted Skall's entry in my semi, and Kathaldazia's in the other which I should have guessed was about to appear here!
13 hours ago13 hr I think we successfully publicly shamed people into not trying Grace. xHooray for this kicking off, feels like ages since the last contest (admittedly because it kind of has been due to BJFestivalen being a bit more of a time sink than planned but hey ho). My entry this month is a rare return to my OG entry selection method of just plucking a song off (non daytime) Radio 1, from the Future Artists show which I briefly had on in the car the other day and this song caught my attention immediately, mainly for the ear candy guitar parts but also just thought it's a really well structured and hook filled indie pop song, reminds me a bit of Dominic Fike and Artemas. The artist hasn't been mentioned on BuzzJack before and the song only has a combined ~38k streams between YouTube and Spotify so hopefully it's new to everyone x a bit more of a mainstream sound than I usually go for so will see how that pans out and I can always run back to my niche safespaces next time (my last entry that I sourced from Radio 1 was Godford in BJSC 139 and that was a top 10 so will that be a good omen ~ -DNQs-)I think it's another month where the only songs I've already heard are ones that have been in PopJustice's contest before (4 of them by my count, all in the opposite semi from me, Cor Lupus' being my favourite of those ones! + 2 more that are in the current contest which I'll be listening to tomorrow), although I guess I may well have heard at least parts of that Emily Osment song back in the day so will see if I recognise it, quite the random throwback there but why not! Very intrigued to hear Terra Avium's entry, I saw that it is a Persephonia recycle of sorts as Karin Park is a member of Årabrot although from the BandCamp genre tags it looks like this song is going to sound nothing like my entry from her haha.Happy with the compromise to go with 17 Qs per semi, 4 fewer people to send hate my way (plus will be good to keep the 18 point voting system in the final).aside: ikonik that there are artists in this contest called 'Blond' and 'BLOND:ISH'and another fun fact: this will be only the second ever BJSC final with exactly 36 songs in it, the previous one was also hosted by Silas! (the infamous BJ[U]SC 29)
