Posted 10 hours ago10 hr SOLO FEMALEWelcome to Rotterdam!Eurovision Song Contest host city, a global trade hub, unique art scenes and much more, Rotterdam is our first week-long stop on The Pop Factor's European Adventure. Twelve artists have landed, but only eleven will continue on the adventure to the next location and venue. Singing for their place in the competition, it's time to welcome all of the solo female artists into an intimate room to audition for you, the voting BuzzJack public!How it works:Once you have listened to all of the artists perform you should post a ranking of each of the performances. You can rank them from best to worst (making clear which is your favourite down to least favourite), or use the template below:01 (favourite)0203040506070809101112 (least favourite)For those voting who have entered one of the artists into the competition, you should rank all twelve performances in your own category (however it's encouraged that you vote in all categories), and when scores are totalled your entry will be removed from your list to retain anonymity in the competition.As always, even if you are not competing in The Pop Factor you can vote too!When voting closes, the eleven female solo artists with the highest scores will proceed to the next round while ONE artist will be eliminated from the competition and will not be going through.Voting will close on Monday 21 September 2026, 17:59 BSTSo give our female artists a warm welcome to Rotterdam and let's find out what they're performing for their ROOM AUDITION...010203040506070809101112Standard list of entries:Adele - HelloJessie Ware - SaunaKate Bush - Hounds of LoveAgnes - SelfmadeLeona Lewis - Better in Time (Single Mix)Sophie Ellis-Bextor - Music Gets the Best of MeRobyn - Talk to MeMARINA - Bubblegum BitchTove Lo feat.

10 hours ago10 hr Love the choices for Dido, Kate, MARINA and Zara! Colour me surprised 'White Flag' was deployed this early too 😮 she's definitely not going anywhere at least.
10 hours ago10 hr A LOT of surprising choices here actually, expected a few more big singles to show their faces!
10 hours ago10 hr White Flag!! I mean it's a great track but this is early for it. Could say the same for Adele but it's kinda fitting to open with Hello
10 hours ago10 hr A few of the bigger acts could be lower down in the opening rank based on the choices.But there is the poor sacrifical lamb in here. Maybe it’s a banger of the highest proportions and will cause an upset.
10 hours ago10 hr Adele literally arrived with "Hello, is it me you're looking for..." and I guess we are.
10 hours ago10 hr Not "Hello" being the first one in the list, lol! 😆Either way, the person behind Tove Lo definitely knows her discography so much because picking "Influence" seems like an odd choice that could backfire to them in my opinion, but if their strategy is to be safe in this round, that's good. The same applies to MARINA with "Bubblegum Bitch" too.

9 hours ago9 hr Big choices for Adele and Dido already! i feel like Adele has at least 3 more songs that are just as popular on here for her as ‘Hello’ is.Everyone else has played it seemingly pretty much as I would expect them to for their acts!‘Better In Time’ is such an underrated beaut for Leona. Always been a fave of mine for her. It’ll be interesting to see how Leona does coz I definitely had her in mind but figured she’d need to be reliant on some deep cuts! I hope they pay off for her. But solid choice to start with.Excellent choice for Marina. Even if it wasn’t a single. It’s impactful enough!This entire category is gonna be very hard. I feel like everyone except Adele will need to utilise “deep cuts” quite strategically!
