Finally

I personally will give my votes based on the song’s merit!!! But I get why some people might have reservations, but surely this is pretty straightforward when the rules allowed it, so hopefully we can just judge the song on its own merits rather than get caught up in who sings on it. It’s a massive bop, after all!!!

Spoken like a true Calvin mentor x

I have no idea what song you're talking about?

I was getting kinda used to being someone who loved... one of the other 7 songs more than 'Cars' - but I guess not now.

Calvin found a Barbadian with her own artist forum in a hopeless place.

(sidenote: what have people been talking about in the Rihanna forum for the last decade...)

I really don’t belong in this group, but you are free to believe whatever you want to believe 🤷🏻‍♂️

looking back, they've been doing annual "year for Rihanna" prediction threads (2025 for Rihanna, Rihanna - 2026 predictions, etc.) and "will R9 come out this year?" threads for years - somehow I imagine they'll always end up with the same answer (R9 coming 2027 trust )

The Damien Rice video link isn’t working for me?

This line up is a bit… meh, I was hoping for a couple more inspired choices.

Also, whoever has sent Bladee, why have you entered just to troll us all? Ahah

i’ve just realized that we’re in Geneva this round!!!

This is now the SECOND time I’ve accidentally been in the same country as one of the rounds here…at this point, I think Shawn Mendes is following me around 🗺️!!!

That’s actually really cool!

I refuse to acknowledge us being in Geneva. We're actually in Warsaw.

Rihanna and Eminem have both been allowed because 1, the rules of the competition only state that your chosen artist must be the main credited artist or only featured artist on any songs submitted and 2, Rina Sawayama had sent a Charli xcx song (Beg For You) that she featured on in Season 1 (despite that ultimately being detrimental to Rina, oops). Hopefully everybody can judge purely on song quality x

How has everyone forgotten about Lady Gaga’s appearance in Season 1 as well!!!

Although, for the life of me, I can’t remember who sent her! ☠️

Was ready to punish a song but couldnt do it especially after the quality in this round!!

I didnt see the vote but if only the 3 acts with the most points all went through 🤣🤣🤣

Just finished my listen through of all 3 categories and personally I thought this was a good category (yes the female category is the strongest but I didn’t see this or the groups category as weak)

If anything this set of songs shows the widest range of pop music

Voted:

1. My favourite song here

2. Fully deserving of the gold card

3. Lovely, this mentor deserved better in this competition

4. One of my favourites from them, nice radio song

5. Not big on the artist but I always quite liked this

6. Surprisingly, I didn't mind this

7. Bit of a filler for me

8. Not a fan of the lyrics, and the music didn't save it either

5 of those songs I've never heard before, and two of them ended up in my Top 3.

Wasn't sure whether to vote with my head or my heart so in the end it was something in between!
