I don't really mind the voting windows in any of the contests, but I was telling Sabrewulf recently that I kinda wish the confirmations window was a bit shorter in BJSC in particular. 🤭 I understand it gives more people a chance though, and if people are still looking for an entry or want to change it etc. It's always funny to see how many people confirm within like the first day or two though.

Oops well there's research and vetoes as well so nevermind. I was just imagining a perfect world 🙃

Anyway bringing it back to the discussion... please can we request more votes as we get closer to the deadline. Still waiting on 13 people.

I thought that was a rather good discussion to be had 😔

I’ve dropped my list to 14 songs - gonna give a couple more listens

It’s so wonderfully diverse that i don’t have a clue what’s going to do well! As ever, hoping for top half at least

Voter!

Waiting on the following with just over a couple of days to go;

@Addy!

@Brer

@Chez Wombat

@CowTzy

@dandy*

@Herbs

@Jester

@Julian_

@King Rollo

@Suedehead2

Monday night is your deadline.

Oops thanks for the reminder as this may have slightly slipped my mind x (I'll probably vote on Monday anyway tho - ofc have my initial ranking from the listenthrough but will do a second listen before voting as usual)

I happened to be just finalising my order as the alert came through, they're with you now Wardy

I have voted now. I enjoyed the diversity of genres that people came up with.

Who we think it’s winning this?

Per Shop Boys?!

As per normal I have no idea who anyone is

If I were to hazard a guess I’d say Portishead as a potential winner

Surely it's between Saint Etienne and Tori Amos!

I have voted! One really great discovery.

A public service announcement...

@Brer

@CowTzy

@Herbs

@Julian_

Plus any other guest voters who may wish to...

You have 24 hours left to send your votes...

Thanks Wardy for the tag, and I am listening to the songs as we type!!!

Can we make some predictions for this edition?

Just now, Nine And ¾ said:

Can we make some predictions for this edition?

Sure you can.

I predict @Brer @CowTzy @Herbs and @Julian_ all cast a vote in under 2 hours to avoid deductions!

Actually find it quite tough to call. I think Queen and Pulp will do very well? Maybe.

Maybe something like Deep Forest could surprise and take the title!!!
