March 23Mar 23 I need a list of participants and artists before I even think about matching bc my brain can't do that on her own
March 23Mar 23 I wonder if the rest of us will have our identities revealed as and when we’re eliminated? 😱

March 23Mar 23 Well done to the 3 mentors whose acts went through! As one of the guest judges, I won't comment too much on these acts, but it's nice to see two of them get through after I narrowly voted against them in the battle round, and the third appeared to be heading for one of the biggest shock exits so it's pleasing to see that reversed.I can reveal however that everyone for whom I voted in this round was eliminated:5 pts: Blondie - Call Me4 pts: Toni Braxton - Un-Break My Heart3 pts: FKA twigs - Two Weeks2 pts: Shawn Mendes - In My Blood1 pt: The Weeknd - I Feel It Coming (feat. Daft Punk)I did wonder if Jade had sent Blondie, gutted they're out - many of their songs yet to be sent as Jade mentioned are my favourites of theirs too ('Dreaming' and 'Atomic' especially), though I'm still not sure they would have survived against 'Maneater' last round or prevailed here. Would love to have seen twigs go further but she somewhat beat the odds to get this far, some great discoveries too, thanks !!! The Toni and Shawn songs are my favourites from each so had to have some of my points despite not making it to the battle phase. Sad to see The Weeknd out with so much untapped potential in this contest (as I mentioned at the end of last series, The Weeknd are the first act who came to mind if I entered again, so I'm glad he's been given a run) - I'm afraid 'Can't Feel My Face' isn't a personal fave from him and while I do much prefer 'I Feel It Coming', I'd hoped to have seen some of "the highlights" of the After Hours era when it really mattered, but still some brave choices in the earlier rounds did pay off, so well played Mango. Sad to lose many of the other acts too, especially Erasure as they had plenty more unused hits but couldn't have had a rougher draw in the battle round really and still only lost by one vote, but we've had plenty of discoveries from them anyway, thanks Dandy.Fabulous hosting job so far with so much ground covered, well done Calum 👏
March 23Mar 23 I loooove people playing sleuth. I feel like I’m not switched on enough to really do it myself but I smirked as soon as Rich guessed who I was and every time someone got it wrong even though I was actively replying to threads with Eric Saade song titles and lyrics 😂
March 23Mar 23 i mean the first 2 songs for markus are his best eurovision attempts say a lot actually
March 23Mar 23 Thank you for that big 'Call Me' support Jim and to anyone else who championed Blondie throughout the competition!Intrigued to know who the highest placed group in the Paije round was. If it was Blondie, then I am kicking myself for not voting for the 'top act in every category goes through' option but it could feasibly be someone else like Ace of Base.If Lily romped home with that round then ROSALÍA also getting a live show slot is certainly a silver lining of the option I did vote for
March 23Mar 23 Are the guest judges people who no longer have acts in the competition/didn't in the first place?I remember I was (honoured to be) asked last year when I wasn't part of the competition/didn't understand it until about halfway through.

You chose some great Saade songs, it could really only have been you I thought (as Silas wasn't participating, but at least we'd have got that Tone Damli collab either way!).I gave Popular 4 points in that wildcard round there but it wasn't ever going to be enough I guess 😢
March 23Mar 23 Pretty sure I gave Eric my 5 points that round (but my memory is shocking) so I’ve forgot already ! 🤣 Edited March 23Mar 23 by Lukuzz
