Well I'm fine with the 'art' part, I just need to try not to offend the pop hoes too much. ddd

not the pop bloc pandering smh x

I honestly cannot for the life of me remember what song I reconfirmed last night so seeing the song list should be fun. 😂

Last day to confirm! We're up to 30 entries so this is already the highest number of participants in a PFSC contest I've hosted, great stuff x

There will likely be at least one more veto to come, but until you hear, please assume no news is good news x

The excitement on my face when I googled if my artist would qualify for the theme and their Wikipedia had Art Pop listed as a genre.

I mean I have no idea what I'm going for really in this category, outside of David Bowie, Bjork and Kate Bush I don't really listen to "quirky" artists.

I could also really do with reading the rules, Being Boiled by Human League wasn't allowed as it charted top 10. Numb by Sons of Sonix feat Melanie C wasn't allowed because she has an Artist forum, which in turn blocks a Nicola Roberts album track! I've tried a third one so fingers crossed. 😂

This is rather embarrassing but SOS to the host @Chez Wombat to remind me what song I had confirmed as I think I want to change it but I need to listen again to be sure.

It was also mashed up by Richard X and Liberty X for Being Nobody (#3 2003).

WHAT a track that is too! 😍

Reconfirmed in the final hour.

Scrambling for another track at the last minute…. AHHHHHH!! So difficult to find something that is weird enough but still Pop enough. 🤷 but I’ll get there. 😂

I'm not going to have a chance to put the thread up until at least this evening and we're awaiting one replacement, so if anyone wants to sneak in a last minute entry today until then, I won't object, but please no artists that have had significant song contest success here before!

It took me a while to find something last night oops (partly because I kept being distracted by other stuff x) but got an entry I'm quite happy with in the end. Whether anyone else will be happy with it is a different question though!

Will be interesting to see the list as I'm wondering how people will have interpreted the theme x

Ok sent something I’m instantly regretting lol. Why are there no “weird obscure pop” playlists on Spotify??
