And happy birthday Patrick! Hope you enjoyed Blusher the other night x

Thank you! Definitely felt like they should be playing bigger venues in due course as this new EP is excellent! I resisted the urge to tell them that they won our internet song contest and also got vetoed with another track for being too known 😂

blusher is huge in online song contests for the eurovision fans too so maybe blusher for australia one day?

enjoy the birthday dinner Patrick and Leww 🧡

Excited to catch up with this later! I’ll be out this evening for a birthday Indian with Leww but fingers crossed for Baddiez getting a potential top 10 judging by the predictions.

Happy Birthday Patrick!! Hope you both have a wonderful time 🥰

They were fab weren’t they?! Literally every song feels like it’d be a top 10 in BJSC haha, it’s probably a good thing they won on the first go round or they’d have been a Debbii Dawson.

As was Twst, another one to tick off the “artists I’ve sent that I’ve seen live”.

Happy birthday @Klumzee!! Have a great evening out

Also THIS was the look I got from Mr D* earlier when I explained we couldn't watch the final of Sewing Bee live because I was going to be presenting the results of a pretend song contest

Howling at this. The look I got when I was googling pictures of the Berghain doorman last month was indescribable 🤣🤣

Right then... we're about ready to kick off by heading over to East Rukahavian - I'll post an updated table every other vote so you can keep an eye on how everyone (but mainly you) are getting on!

Here are the scores from East Rukahavian:

18- Danaeviia: Levi.Sct- Technotude

15- Trifoski: acloudyskye- Shoots

04/52

Summericia leap to the top of the table following an 18 and 15 in the last sets of votes

A few of the other hyped countries enter the top 10 as Nelionoir, Ajanaeda, POPHub and Aeroche make an early start on their good odds

Happy to say that only 7 countries remain on zero after 4 votes as tastes are proving quite diverse
