Posted November 11Nov 11 Some options I’m considering for next contest I was always thinking of repeating Valencia but clearly going pop is a risk in BJSC
November 11Nov 11 You're not allowed to send the same artist to two contests in a row so you'd have to wait a bit to send Valencia again.(the Jacob Alon song is great, discovered it from the Mercury Prize ceremony the other week x)

November 11Nov 11 100% Francesca then send Valencia the month after - pop is only a risk if it's the wrong song (or a male vocalist 😅) but Francesca has the foreign language appeal as well and Valencia is a bop so should be pretty safe imo
November 14Nov 14 Possibly bad news for Herbilore but Jacob Alon has been picked up by Radio 1 today, but not the same track it appears.

November 14Nov 14 A different song of his being playlisted wouldn’t make this one a ban.Infact, Francesca Miechelin being a former winner would flag up more points and discussion (not to say we don’t let past winners back in - case in point: Worakls, Margaret Berger)

Wait……
November 14Nov 14 Author Im so shite at BJSC that I never get vetoed anyway! Let’s change that and try my chances right?!

November 16Nov 16 That Jacob song is gorgeous. It would be a risk to enter it. BJSC doesn't always reward quality.
November 16Nov 16 I recently came close to winning PJSC with Valencia's Super Elastic. Love her! Too bad she's ineligible for you next round.
November 21Nov 21 Fairy In A Bottle for me! I remember having this charted last year but not quite making the top 50 in the end. It stands out to me! Really nice emotional ballad x The other two I don't rate as much, but Francesca has that BJSC pop edge para mi.
