I asked to reserve La Roux cause trash dumped her didnt he... if he didnt my mistake :o

for the love of god, can somebody please send something from The Secret Life Of... album if we must have The Veronicas yet again...there is so much untapped potential; Secret, When It All Falls Apart, 4Ever, Everything I'm Not, Speechless etc... etc...

I think we're waiting for you to go back on your policy and send one yourself. :lol: I think if anyone else sent one now we'd look likeit was only because you said it, you've asked people to use that album quite a bit.

 

I'm currently downloading Lily's album and I hope to be there when Tom confirms the Good Natured. though I'm guessing he'd be silly to do that now

Agreed with this. Everything I'm Not and 4Ever are both probably better than any song on Hook Me Up imo. Though I do hope they're not entered at all tbh, not until they have new material.

 

This does feel ages away. :(

I won't be sending any Veronicas songs, they're a tad over exposed in BJSC, I'm just saying that it would be a shame to see all of these good songs wasted if people really must keep using this band! I do like the Hook Me Up album but not as much as The Secret Life Of...which I've always seen as the unofficial successor to Kelly Clarkson's Breakaway - perfect pop/rock

However, as the Clash original was sampled by MIA on Paper Planes, then surely it would be ineligible?

 

No it wouldn't be. If the original had been entered then yes but as it is, I think it would be okay, albeit hideously cheap.

US of Russiatron would like to reserve Ricky Martin and get rid of Lindsay Lohan typlz.

 

 

Oh Ricky Martin :cheer:

The Veronicas take what Kelly started and perfected it on their debut imo. While Breakaway has some undeniably catchy pop hits, it really feels like overall as an album her heart wasn't in it whereas The Secret Life is packed with emotion.

Hitanya would like to reserve Blu Cantrell,Gia Farrell and Eve

Angelicland would also like to reserve Gaby.

That leaves me with predictable, cheap or risky... hmm.

Kylienips like to reserve Pet Shop Boys as their third choice

 

Pet Shop Boys - Love Etc

 

Kylienips like to reserve Pet Shop Boys as their third choice

 

Bah humbug, you beat me too it! :lol:

 

I think this song by this veteran seminal 1980s act has the potential for a Cyndi Lauper type BJSC success.

Me too! :arrr:

 

Looks like a third consecutive contest with a male presence in the top three!

I think most people would have sent PSB if given the chance. I thought about it for a minute before Martin posted but I don't think I like it enough to send it and it'd be better for a follower of three decades to send them, rather than someone who has never been a fan of theirs.

 

With Lady Sovereign and PSB reserved, the top 3 is beginning to look increasingly more difficult to break this month. Now we need the obligatory bit of Swedish pop that makes it there to be confirmed.

Oh my, is Lady Sovereign going to do that well :puke2:

Oh my, is Lady Sovereign going to do that well :puke2:

 

Hope not :puke:

 

Hmmm, I wonder if Alcazar could be that bit of Swedish pop? ;) Actually I'll level with you guys - I'm really waiting for my Alcazar related secret weapon, but it doesn't seem to be out there yet...

I think having this lengthy gap between Song Contests means this one is going to be a bit of a corker:

 

However what might be worth speculating is what artists/songs might be selected by these nations and therefore what might come free due to the number of countries who currently have two or three reservations: .....

JRK-off wish to unreserve Namie Amuro and Amy Studt. Namie may be put to better use in the later BJSC Foreign Spinoff whilst Amy might be overly cheap given that she's just been enterred in Top 10s. JRK-off will be keeping Sonique reserved.

 

:P

Torchwood will reserve Amy Studt in that case :kink:

With Lady Sovereign and PSB reserved, the top 3 is beginning to look increasingly more difficult to break this month. Now we need the obligatory bit of Swedish pop that makes it there to be confirmed.

Seeing as Ben has BOTH Calvin and Lady Sovereign reserved I will not be shocked if someone snaps up Calvin to get (I suspect) a Top 5 finish and will probably challenge for a Top 3 placing!
