I vote for no break.

My view right now! 😂

I think Depeche Mode and New Order would’ve been in trouble had it been a public vote…

SIX CHAIRS.

EIGHT SOLO MALE ARTISTS.

LET'S CONTINUE WITH THE SHOW...

The hottest judge... 💦

Poor Years & Years, gone without my three favourite songs from them appearing.

Hopefully with even hotter choices

As it’s Rogue I’m sticking with predictions that Gary and Damien are out

King for the Gamu

I vote to demote @Calum for this shenanigans eliminating the best act in the competition.

All in the name of ✨diversity✨ of course. That’s why we have more than a half of acts from 20th century left.

It’s giving drag race Mexico Latina royale.

Just to add quickly.

As I said at the start, every song was excellent, thank you mentors! I tried to be fair, making choices taking into account previous voting scores, the promise of possible remaining songs, variety (different strands of ‘pop’) and yes personal preferences. From those eliminated:

iamamiwhoami - I have to admit this has been the revelation of the whole competition for me. I had heard very little from iamamiwhoami previously, but I’ve liked everything that has been submitted, and blue blue is the best of the lot. However I think I was concerned about the potential of their songs available for the rest of the contest?! So sorry!

Years & Years - Sunlight is a fantastic song, a real banger, I’ve always loved it and Years & Years too. I’m just afraid the level of competition elsewhere was so high, and I know everyone is focusing on the ‘feature’ issue, but that was really a very minor factor. Sad to see them go though!

I hope I’m going to be forgiven by their mentors for these choices 🫣……. don’t @ me!

I don't envy the judges having their sole judgement put on blast so publicly here but I am kinda here for the drama of the twist xo

'Sunlight' is a good tune but I think it's possible it would have been in my own bottom 2 of this batch anyway (I haven't heard the iamamiwhoami song iirc + don't recognise the Texas one from the title either, I'll give them a listen) - although I do expect they'd have survived a public vote. Poor yammy going but they'd probably have been more at risk from the public!

Fingers crossed x

The first solo male artist to take to the stage tonight is...

Oh no though Gary Numan is probably in trouble now. I take it back, we hate this twist!

Glad that there's not going to be any breaks because it would have reminded me to any chapter of Captain Tsubasa, lol! 😂

"Nice to see you showcasing all of your talents Calvin! That was an undeniable banger.

Take that first seat!"

Great choice from Calvin. Ain’t no chance he’s out

Smart choice from Calvin there. I think a female feature could have been his downfall if there was a struggle to choose someone.
