Out of all the artists I've sent to BJSC twice, this will be the first one I'm sending for a third time I realize that narrows it down a lot but not a complete giveaway.

On a completely unrelated note, I've just noticed Ravyn Lenae was sent to BJSC 80, 10 years/100 contests ago Wondering if she has the longest gap between first BJSC entry and first official chart hit

I think in top 75 terms that might be Carrie Underwood, who was sent by Addy to the fourth contest in 2008 and first charted here in 2021 with a Christmas song.

But yes, impressive gap for Rayvn, she must have been very young when sent to BJSC first.

i'm innnnn. hoping the fact my song hasn't been entered in the past 2 contests means there was no rush this time lol

Still only the one double confirmation so far, from last night, and a replacement has been submitted for that.

I've listened to everything confirmed so far and am super impressed, some big hitters from various blocs and genres here, and a few musical swerves which we appreciate, with the whole 'doing a 180' vibe. Hearing these (pending any people reconfirming) certainly gives me an indication as to how the final YTD chart might look. A couple of countries have confirmed some of the best entries I've heard this year.

Keep them coming, you've got to be in it to win it, and what better time for a long-awaited return than the final contest of the year? Always hotly contested, imagine having the bragging rights of winning it!

Welcome back to Macromia and Pagasa so far

I might be taking my time to confirm again this month as I still have nothing except my techno potential which I'm not going to bother confirming as a placeholder as there's approximately zero chance anyone else will take it x

Although she did appear in the top 40 in 2008 as part of the charity song 'Just Stand Up!' that everyone always forgets about.

It hasn't appeared in a contest but that doesn't mean it wasn't entered o:

(it'll be fine, someone just previously confirmed it and then switched to something else)

lol ok well for the record that does NOT count as a recycle x

Will probably make some sort of small prediction when I open the thread!

Ready to not qualify again! 😃

Alt bloc needs some reinforcement pronto Toronto

I think this is my 90th contest which means Taahino 100 should be closing next year (provided I keep entering 😶)

The alt bloc no doubt taking their sweet time to let all their potentials grow on them.

Keep the confirmations coming!

Up to 38 now, welcome back Ojnoj, Macromia and Pagasa - you are very welcome ❤️ And thank you to everyone else for sticking with us!!

Imma try and send something when I arrive in Oslo before I go see Tone Damli and my entire playlist is taken over by queen Tone and that’s all I listen to and therefore all I want to send

Love all these returns…welcome back everyone, we missed you ❤️

Rd‘Á has not been tempted to the dark side and has stuck to our initial plan. Been a potential for a few months now

Just found out that the artist of my entry (which I discovered yesterday) is a nepo-baby (by relation not by being the child of famous person)!!

Omg.
