Brer went for a bit of dark wave that wouldn't have sounded very out of place as a modern day BJSC entry, whilst we have Italodisco but in Spanish from AH Gold.

    Hey everyone! Honestly, I had no idea what to expect here or what kind of music you’re into, so I decided to send something upbeat that could get you moving but still has that retro vibe. As for YouTu

We all probably don't know if it's good or bad to be 4th to 10th in somebody's vote. If you are not, you could have have some top 3 scores or maybe you don't have any points at all.

Do not remember the last time bre gave me points!

Lots of fab entries revealed so far but especially Bré's *.* that sound and the Spanish language? right up my street, naturally

Some guessed Addy to be behind my Albanian entry, however he went for sultry Spanish. The slow jam synthpop track, we had from Ansel.

My song is in fact from Argentina but I suppose you meant languages rather than countries x

I feel like my song might be one that gets mostly high points or nothing so possible I might be waiting until the end to see if I get a rush of medal positions or if I am actually just flopping xx Thanks Rollo for the points announced so far!

I knew AH Gold's song already via Jade but it was a cool one to revisit, a slightly less frivolous song than I remembered it being. Great entry from Jester as well, also enjoyed Addy's and Jim's (both not far off my points #spoilers).

The most famous Spanish-language artiste here Selena we had from Chez Wombat who I'd be surprised if anyone correctly guessed was the sender.

We are now calling FRANCE!

Was there a Selena album in that bucket list you went through Chez?

Was kind of interesting to hear some older Latin pop, I think I'd need to explore her music a little more to understand her acclaim ngl but this song was quite fun x

Jade 🇫🇷 Liaisons Dangereuses - Mystère Dans Le Brouillard

02 🇪🇸 Selena - Techno Cumbia
01 🇪🇸 Euroshima - Sonrisas Fabricadas

Jade is revealed to have been the leader of the last scoreboard, but anything can change with the televote result! She went with new wave act Liasions Dangereuses whilst Mangø went for a more traditional sound from Maxine Le Forestier.

Let's call in HUNGARY and INDONESIA...

The most famous Spaniard here Selena we had from Chez Wombat who I'd be surprised if anyone correctly guessed was the sender.

No one reading my album bucket list 2.0 thread confirmed! 😁😪 (edit: except Bre haha)

I didn't really know Selena, but I really enjoyed Amor Prohibido more than I expected. This one was a highlight and was a forerunner in the Cumbia genre which tied in a lot to modern latin music and I thought it was a real standout....clearly not to everyone's taste going by that listenthrough reception oops 😅 Maybe I should've sent the title track, it's a bit more ordinary.

Not expecting to do very well here, but pleased to have some points at least, Euroshima is my favourite revealed so far, banger and a half x

Thanks for a mealworm Mango x

Jade being behind the recycle of my former Club Bizarre artist oh my. (unfortunately I wasn't that keen on this one as it's a little too aggressively French for me ph34r but I did like the instrumental)

+1 13 🇮🇸 Kolrassa Krókríðandi - Hellismanna Kvæði

Dobbo was behind one of the more obscure languages, going with a lovely bit of Hungarian classic rock. Meanwhile CowTzy of course reps his home country of Indonesia with one of their most famous singers of the 80s/90s (prior to being involved in a tragic traffic incident aged only 19).

We are calling IRELAND...

Truly alienating Bré at the moment with a pop choice in BJSC and aggressively French vocals here x

I was intrigued to see if Electronic Sound magazine had any accompanying Spotify playlists and found this song in one called 'Electronic Sound: Cold War Electronica'! Immediately fell in love with its intensity. Cool to be top of the leaderboard right now (minus medals of course) - thank you Addy, Ansel, Jim, Rollo and Severin for points *.*

Herbs 🇮🇪 Clannad - Coinleach Glas An Fhomhair

Great theme and if I’d had realised this comp was running earlier I might have gone for a more bold choice

Unless you all loved Clannad and I’m the winner?!

anyways, here are my votes:

7 points - Lena Philipsson

6 points - Righeira

5 points - Mecano

4 points - Dschinghis Khan

3 points - Matia Bazar

2 points - Spider Murphy Gang

1 point - Doce

Herbs went for Clannad, who did have two UK top 40 hits albeit neither of them were this song.

Let's take a look at the scoreboard then shall we.

2 32 🇮🇹 Matia Bazar - Elettrochoc

24 4 🇩🇪 Marlene Dietrich - Sag Mir Wo Die Blumen Sind
25 3 🇩🇪 Spider Murphy Gang - Skandal Im Sperrbezirk
26 3 🇮🇹 Mina - Citta Vuota

It is Dobbo who currently takes the joint-lead alongside one of the Italian language entries. Well let's find out who sent that - we are calling ITALY...

I did vaguely recognise the Omega song from being sampled in Kanye's 'New Slaves' but cool to hear the full song, a great Floyd-esque tune there. Also lovely entry from Herbs.

Thanks Dobbo and Cow!

popchartfreak 🇮🇹 Mina - Citta Vuota

Hi Dan,
Thanks for organising all this, appreciate all the effort and apologies for the Mina track - it was probably me that entered it into another contest (and I forgot!) I've been keeping a Youtube playlist of oldies that might work in Song Contests and I must have forgotten to delete Mina's then not thought about it again. It won't be up the top end anyway, I expect, too many 80's bops for that!
So here's my votes:

7 points: Matia Bazar - Elettrochoc
6 points: Clannad - Coinleach Glas An Fhomhair
5 points: Righeira - Vamas A La Playa
4 points: Beni Life - Amor en el Cielo
3 points: Omega - Gyöngyhajú lány
2 points: Dschinghis Khan - Moskau
1 point: Projekt Jon - Dimeroj

It is Julian whose shocking electro pop is in contention, whilst popchartfreak seeks a second chance at success with an oldie (though the song is currently in last place).

Calling ICELAND...

It was indeed you who sent Mina before @Popchartfreak (in the 2nd BJSC Foreign Languages spinoff) magic

Thanks Julian - yours was another one where I liked the instrumental substantially more than the vocals but still a bit of a bop.
