Poor Toni, she has some seriously good songs but tbf I'm not au fait with her albums so can't judge if this was a good choice or not.

What happens to the lobster now? Will be be cooking it and distributing the portions?

12 acts down!

27 to go!

Oh it got revealed as I was posting! Lol

Well done on deciphering those clues Herbs (if you had it lol).

That was really quite a choice for The 1975, what album is it even on? A later deluxe version presumably as I own that album and never heard it.

I deciphered something?

None of Toni's songs really clicked for me tbh so I can't say she's a big loss for me. Shame we never got Unbreak My Heart from her.

A bit more gutted about the 1975 leaving. They had some great songs left in their vault so it's a shame we never got them (Chocolate primarily).

And before The Rebecca Ferguson Lobster of Resurrection is set free, I can exclusively reveal that the artist who used it in this round was...

But did they need to use it? Find out when the full results arrive later!

A shame for the 1975, they had a lot of great ones that weren't sent yet, but a random, fairly standard remix was a bit of a strange choice.

Oh Erasure had it!

Wasn't even a bad song - that's surprising to use it for this round.

I was presuming you were the owner of a lobster, but can see I was wrong as can't really see you being behind Erasure!

Decent use of it to send a 7 minute song, it certainly wasn't guaranteed to be safe.

lol I love Erasure!

I don't doubt it, but I'm 100% nailed on your act already.

Funnily enough Erasure is an act I haven't yet put a poster next to in my head. Maybe Dandy* (who could also have Florence).

I did not see it being Erasure!

I'm intrigued to know if there's a theme for next round. 👀

I love your confidence! I think after last years one hit wonder artist, surely I’d go for someone more obvious this year?!

Death metal?

I may need a Diana Vickers bye through to the next round then cough

1975 will be gutted if it's a remix round next.

CONFIRM YOUR SONG CHOICE FOR JUDGES' HOUSES HERE!

I encourage everybody to be competitive but to definitely keep a big hitter for the following round after Judges' Houses, because you absolutely may need it

There is no theme for Judges' Houses, so it is FREE CHOICE! You have until 17:59 tomorrow to confirm your song choice.

For now, let's give it up for Shawn Mendes, Toni Braxton and The 1975 for making it this far!

A remix round is actually a good idea lol. Kind of puts everyone on equal-ish footing.

I have just the song if so. I guess I could send it to free choice too, but no.
