May 18May 18 Author The boys gave us a third Top 10 hit of this year <3 and finished 4th (only the second time in Bøtanikkä's book, joining Stanga <3).Now for BJSC185 we're (trying) to go To France by Mike Oldfield & Maggie Reilly <3 released in 1984 (I was 1 year old :D). The song was a hit in mainland Europe, but for some reasons didn't really took off in UK, and peaked only #48.Personally what makes this song so special for me is the history behind the story of Mary, Queen of Scots when she returned to Scotland and got imprisoned by Queen Elizabeth. She was always hoping one day she would be released from prison, and she would be able to escape to France, but that never happened. You all know the rest of history what happened to her after being imprisoned for 18 years. That was the sad life of Mary Stuart, the last queen of Scotland and that she never made it To France </3.Please enjoy the magical voice of Maggie Reilly <3.

July 6Jul 6 Author BJSC186 AQ - Little Sis Nora - Cool Like ThatAfter unexpectedly bringing the trophy home with To France, Bøtanikkä isn't feeling the pressure at all!!!As this edition's AQ, we're swapping prestige for personality and bringing three minutes of unapologetic fun.Little Sis Nora has built a reputation for turning tongue-in-cheek confidence into irresistible fast dance-pop, and Cool Like That is exactly the kind of track that reminds us not to take ourselves too seriously. It's playful, catchy, self-aware, and impossible to sit still through.Enjoy it <3

September 5Sep 5 Author Bøtanikkä has become Retrønikkä and it's bringing some unapologetic 90s eurodance energy to BJSC188 with Gala and “Come Into My Life.”It’s all about that infectious production, with Gala’s minimal, effortlessly cool vocals adding just enough attitude without ever overpowering the track!!!And we're entering with absolutely no qualifying pressure, as we're AQ thanks to Natalie Jane’s fabulous 2nd place last contest <3.Please enjoy <3 Is this playing in UK btw?!!
September 6Sep 6 Congrats on the AQ and thanks for keeping me company in the 90s Eurodance bloc! Come Into My Life is a classic that was underrated in the UK. It has a similar vibe to this Italo Eurodance song from 1999 that I dearly love too.Weirdly I bought a Spanish compilation album last month that has Come Into My Life (and another of hers as Disc 1, Track 1), I didn't have it on any album before that. Coincidental timing.
September 6Sep 6 Author Thanks Rich!!! I was happy to see you going with Pandora as well. Yours is a proper true eurodance classic with a huge female chorus and a rapper, which is a must for eurodance <3!!!Oh and that compilation looks amazing, so many good ones , and few artists and tracks I’ve sent to BJSC in the past …thanks for sharing <3
Yesterday at 02:401 day Author OK we're hungry!!!After the absolute Gala catastrophe and after no one came into her life, Bøtanikkä has decided that playing nice is overrated. This time, we're coming back with a V for Vendetta!!!*In “Vendetta,” Temples meshes multiple different sounds together in a way that is seamless, creating a genre-bending track that is dark, catchy and danceable. While previously sticking to softer 60s psychedelic tones, this track is bold from start to finish. “Vendetta” is through and through a club song!!! From start to finish, the track begs for attention.After Gala…we needed something with a little more bite. 🗡️ It's already sitting at the top of our weekly chart, and we're obsessed!!!I hope you enjoy it as much as we do <3.*taken from magazine
