Oh did I miss the listen through for this? Was thinking I could've made that this time. How did my song go down if anyone knows?

If you're not happy with my prediction, keep in mind that I only recently came back and so I'm probably one of the least qualified people participating to be predicting how people are likely to vote. 😅

1 Cor Lupus :: Kyra Machida - Blonde

2 Lookylion :: Momo Boyd – American Love Song

3 Pagasa :: Cameron Winter – Nausicaä (Love Will Be Revealed)

4 Pestolia :: frutiger dillon – Windows98

5 FARC :: Banoffee – Muscles

6 N DNTN :: KNEECAP – THE RECAP (feat. Mozey)

7 Freidland :: Connie Talbot – Original

8 Herbilore :: Mia Wray – Only Love

9 A-Konohagakure :: CHANMINA – TEST ME

10 Ennea :: Paris Paloma – the warmth

11 Sandénia :: Shawn Mendes – Heavy

12 Terra Avium :: yeule – Veil Of Darkness

13 Hendinia :: Klavdia & ARCADE – Anemos

14 Mothertopia :: Kelly Lee Owens – Higher

15 Deandria :: Merina Gris – Mejor*

16 Lotunia :: Army Of Lovers – Love Is Blue (feat. Olya Polyakova)

17 Ben's Sanctuary :: Kai Tracid – 4 Just 1 Day

18 East Rukahavian :: The Hidden Cameras – Undertow

19 Kathaldazia :: Chesuqi – The Blue

20 Land of DW :: Csaknekedkislány – Minden Mozog

21 Jupiterdonia :: Ancient Umbra – Iron Will

22 Dalisska :: Storefront Church – The High Room

23 Kluminican Republic :: KAS:ST – Sound Of The Soul

24 Bøtanikkä :: LA NIÑA – FIGLIA D' 'A TEMPESTA

25 Neliönoir :: FAUST – Dies Irae

26 Flynnonda :: crushed – silene

27 Hushkanukia :: Valencia Grace – Lucky You're A Star

28 Juranabaijan :: Angie – Poco Poco

29 Aeroche :: KING BOOO! – Tunes Since '89

30 Ajanaeda :: Florence Road – Storm Warnings

31 Cumulonimbia :: umiña – spiral

32 Bronzil :: KÄSSY – i-i-i

It was tough to decide on 20 I think would qualify, especially because I'm not that confident about the way BJSC votes these days yet. There's a few I marked as non qualifiers that I could also see a world where they make it but I had to draw a line in the sand eventually.

I probably should have posted this prediction earlier as I think I was a bit influenced by the predictions already posted here...

I assume you’ve gone rogue and decided to be different and switch the colours so “red” is qualifying, right?

Riots if all of the French pop is decimated just like that - all 3 deserve to make it, so 0/3 would be a MESS.

y’all I was on a flight - how did my DNQ go down in the listenthrough?

What happens at the listenthrough stays at the listenthrough.

Also, my artist is French so it’s actually 1/4 excuse you :disappearingcheeseblock:

From what I can recall Cour La Puss was predicted to [REDACTED].

I don't have it in me to predict the 20 qualifiers each semi. I'll instead get far ahead and guess which entries received the most points in their semi after the final results.

Semi 1: Mia Wray, Storefront Church

Semi 2: Suzane, TRAITRS

My last DNQ was French

It's a sign

I love 'C'est Toi' so I refuse to believe that could DNQ, do it for the Heated Rivalry boys x

Am I predicted to be the Semi 2 winner? X these are some rollercoaster predictions

I have no idea, but here's what my gut is telling me for semi 2, limiting my picks so as to lessen the likelihood of being completely off base <3:

Semi Winner picks:

• Cheiron (broad appeal, name recognition, pop and alt bloc friendly)

• Fljótavík (pop royalty, banger with cross-appeal, well received in the listenthrough by some surprising names)

• Scotland 2 (have a feeling this will do well with alt & dance enthusiasts with some clear pop appeal)

Dark Horses:

• Elëdan (very on brand, manages to stand out even in a collection of misfits such as this semi - alt bloc catnip)

• Greenfroze (the pop hoes seemed to love this yesterday, albeit with doubt given how similar songs have fared in the past)

• POPHub (the most pure pop of the pop songs and IMO the best bet out of the french entries, although..)

• Yehesi (may be aided by the limited virality the song has received, it is catchy after all)

• Sovarasma (i'll just say this left an impact)

Opaque Pony:

• The Spodic Empire (You can't get any more ribenary than this)

Refraining from predicting my own entry as it'll be contaminated (heh) by my blind spot bias anyway lmao.

Is this a record for French songs in one contest? Five?

went from a green light to a DNQ to a dark horse

I can’t with these predictions! I’ve also had a wide mix! Watch me finish 30th or something like that in my semi

Buzzjack in january 2026 for some reason

And actually I was considering switching my entry to a French one as well after discovering it during the submission window but decided to stick to the original plan.

We should have French Edition BJSC for Brer’s pleasure!!!
