February 23, 200916 yr but if people are calling a KC track that only leaked 2 days ago, and therefore largely unheard, cheap surely its somewhere similar? But the thing with Kelly and Lily's tracks are that they're from two of Buzzjack's most anticipated albums of 2009, so whether they're the lead single or an album track they're quite cheap as most people will have downloaded and listened to the albums the day they leaked. If "Shattered Glass" was cheap, "Already Gone" and "Back To The Start" are just as cheap. (those three artists are currently the top 3 in the Multichart) Album tracks in general are not cheap but there are certain artists where it is cheap. Britney, Rihanna, Lily, Kelly, Leona, Kylie, Duffy etc. = (N). Gabriella Cilmi, Alesha, Mutya, Amy MacDonald, Beverley Knight, Nat Bass etc. = (Y). (imo of course)
February 23, 200916 yr This contest is so wide open, its going to be a very interesting Semi, definitely gonna have some shocks in it.
February 23, 200916 yr I just noticed, Dulpaen is back! :o Welcome back Dulpaen ^_^ Yup, and thanks! Doubt I'll qualify... :P
February 23, 200916 yr Oh, btw, I thought I would say, my results might not be in until the weekend, I have exams all week, so its will be non-stop revision.

(imo of course) I'd agree with this I think, the bigger the artist, the cheaper the song I think...Lily, Kylie, Duffy, Rihanna and Britney are in a different sales league to Beverley Knight, Mutya and Gabriella Cilmi... and Agnes wasn't cheap James, just popular :lol: the hype that the song had only came from about 2 or 3 posters (mostly me :kink:)
February 23, 200916 yr Oh, btw, I thought I would say, my results might not be in until the weekend, I have exams all week, so its will be non-stop revision. I'm quite busy too, so mine will probably be at the weekend.

I have exams too starting on wendsday :o I'm going to try and make a start tonight and tommorrow though and I'll probably send in my votes on Friday/Saturday
February 23, 200916 yr going to start listening to the songs in my semi now, am excited :o :heart: semi 2 is so fresh to me, I'm so glad I'm in it!
February 23, 200916 yr I hope this competition is a blip but as I said at the time the #10 contest has allowed the cheapness genie out of the lamp. Looking at all the entries I have a horrible feeling that Nonsuch may be withdrawing from the competition if a lot of the cheap songs do well as it will be getting back to BJSC I - VI levels, and that did not interest me then as I think this competition should be firstly & foremost about discovering new, obscure & unknown artists & their music. :cry:

February 23, 200916 yr oh, the melody of The Journey, Kathaldazia's entry reminds me slightly of Delta's Out Of The Blue :heehee: not that this is a bad thing of course!
February 23, 200916 yr Author So after 5 sets of votes in each semi-final here are some clues.... Some countries have given points, and many countries have also recieved them.A total of 510 points has been given out at this stage, which is divided between various songs.A country, or more than one country is/are leading both semi-finals by a certain number of points.There are countries at the bottom of both semis who may or may not have nul points.One country, the hosts, Herzebania, are not in the top 23 of either semi-final. Keep voting, and stay tuned for more clues!!
February 23, 200916 yr JRK-Off's video has been deleted...I hope the song's on Spotify... edit: no it's not, so nobody from Semi-2 can send their votes without hearing the song until the link's fixed/new one uploaded
