Zara continuing to flipflop is the shock of this round for me, thought she was a Buzzjack fave so I'm really surprised to see her struggling!

The Rylan of the Series

Speaking as someone who has been on the Zara train for a long while, I don’t feel Buzzjack have ever been vocal Zara fans, as much as they’re fans of Midnight Sun specifically. She had her own Artist Forum for a short second but that came and went pretty quickly. So I’m not surprised that people with vocal legacies like SEB, Robyn, Marina are proving more popular.

Myself & Lee Wallace (RIP) (not actually dead, just to Buzzjack) have been lonely flying the flag for years 😂

I was just wondering the other day what happened to Lee Wallace! Is he still stanning Zara in real life?

I've got all of Zara's albums and have been following her since about 2013 when Uncover was big in Sweden, so expect to rank her much more highly in later rounds when my favourites come up. I don't think she'll be in trouble this time though as has so many top rankings while others on the face of it are averaging mid to low in most.

I've also had the fortune to see her live twice, once as an interval act at Melodifestivalen 2017 in her (first) imperial phase, and again in the khia era at the opening ceremony of Eurovision in Liverpool in 2023 <3 The second one with Julian, although we were behind the stage so say that we could see her is a stretch.

Adele sending that massive song this early!? Wow! 😮🤯 I’ll be interested to hear their plan if there is one!

I think they just maybe sh!t themselves due to the high caliber of females and just thought to send strong singles too early?!

(Adele mentor if you’re reading this, we want Set Fire To The Rain and Someone Like You in rounds 3/4 please )

He responds to my Instagram stories whenever I post about Zara so I would assume so 😂 I’m sure he’s as much of a mess as he ever was given his only other message to me this year was advising me which bars in Benidorm to get drunk in x

I was at the Liverpool Eurovision thing working it! I was stuck in a green room looking after Lightning Seeds’ guitars with Zara getting ready to go on stage for about an hour sending sneaky pictures to Lee Wallace and having to keep it cool harder than I’ve ever had to in any TV role 😂

No beating Adele in this round for me, thought Kate would easily be second but Leona’s entry was gorgeous (not heard it before) so it shot right past it.

I’d say I quite liked all of these tbf wasn’t any I disliked.
