March 2, 200916 yr Have some self-confidence Nick! :P You could very easily break your duck in a shocking fashion I reckon! :w00t: It's just that I'm in the US at the start of April :P So hosting would be difficult. I'm pretty confident of beating my 25th for Avril though :kink:
March 2, 200916 yr 6th bottom :( I honestly don't know what to expect, I've got Pavel saying I'm gonna win, me saying I'll come mid-table, and Trash saying 6th bottom. Its gonna be an exciting final!
March 2, 200916 yr Author Odds for the final from FSR Rontvia :D so close :drama: Angelicland - The Veronicas - Untouched // 3/1 FNT Nickodonia - Velvet - Take My Body Close // 4/1 Scherzland - Kelly Clarkson - Already Gone // 5/1 Mdiče - Lady Sovereign - So Human // 6/1 MKL - Krystal Meyers - Feels So Right // 8/1 Quotosibb - September - Can't Get Over // 10/1 Botanikka - Enrique Iglesias and Ciara - Takin' Back My Love // 12/1 Ashton - Lily Allen - Back To The Start // 12/1 Herzebania - Amanda Jenssen - Amarula Tree // 12/1 Simondly - Taylor Swift - Love Story // 15/1 Bhangra - Jade Ewen - GotMy$h!tTogeva // 18/1 Dalisska - Marie Mai - Emenne-Moi // 18/1 Lorikeet - VV Brown - Leave! // 20/1 FSR Rontvia - Uh Huh Her - Not A Love Song // 20/1 Kopečka - Saint Etienne - Method Of Modern Love // 25/1 Torchwood - Amy Studt - Nice Boys // 25/1 Hendinia - Noisettes - Don't Upset The Rhythm // 25/1 JRK-off - Natalie Bassingthwaighte - This Can't Be Love // 30/1 Rivandia - M83 - Car Chase Terror! // 30/1 BaNG - Royksopp - Happy Up Here // 30/1 Eledan - Private - Killer On The Dancefloor // 30/1 Fortunia - Kelis - Trick Me // 35/1 Numayania - Alcazar - We Keep On Rockin' // 40/1 Jester's Kingdom - Sneaky Sound System - I Love It // 40/1 Ojnoj - Rihanna - Hatin' On The Club // 50/1 Cadbury - Imogen Heap - Speeding Cars // 50/1 Nonsuch - Marina & The Diamonds - The Shampain Sleeper // 50/1
March 2, 200916 yr ^ I'm very surprised you have Nonsuch bottom considering the media buzz behind Marina, and the support she is already receiving before releasing (a Radio 1 Live Lounge Performance; a Radio 2 session & a BBC 6Music session her first proper single & album later this year. Especially as she was unsigned in December 2008 so was ineligible for Sounds of 2009; whilst her debut single "Obsessions" / "Mowgli Road" was a limited "soft" release of just 250 physical copies whilst NOT being available to buy on iTunes. Whilst as her blog on her MySpace implied (Nonsuch XIV entry from which the demo is taken) is likely to be her first proper release "unless she can come up with something better (i.e. more commercial) prior to the release of the album" on Warners alternative offshoot 679 Recordings later in the summer. Still in a competition full of accusations of cheapness I guess it would be appropriate if a Diamond finished last. Especially as this Diamond is likely to be shining very brightly amongst music critics and hopefully in the UK singles & album charts before 2009 has finished.
March 2, 200916 yr Jake entered the far superior Mowgli's Road a few contests back and it did not do that well, sadly. I cannot see the Shampain Sleeper doing any better. I hope it does well though. ;o
March 2, 200916 yr Author I know who she is, I just didn't find the song as instant as others, in a very high quality contest... Mowgli's Road on the other hand was stunning :D I gave it a 7 I believe :wub:
March 2, 200916 yr I can only see Velvet winning, it reminds me of Release Me in places. Take My Body Close is much better than Fix Me so top 4 is for certain! FNT Nickodonia - Velvet - Take My Body Close 2/1 Hendinia - Noisettes - Don't Upset The Rhythm 7/2 MKL - Krystal Meyers - Feels So Right 5/1 Scherzland - Kelly Clarkson - Already Gone 6/1 Mdiče - Lady Sovereign - So Human 7/1 Quotosibb - September - Can't Get Over 17/2 Simondly - Taylor Swift - Love Story 8/1 Angelicland - The Veronicas - Untouched 19/2 Herzebania - Amanda Jenssen - Amarula Tree 10/1 Botanikka - Enrique Iglesias and Ciara - Takin' Back My Love 12/1 Kopečka - Saint Etienne - Method Of Modern Love 14/1 Torchwood - Amy Studt - Nice Boys 31/2 FSR Rontvia - Uh Huh Her - Not A Love Song 17/1 Ashton - Lily Allen - Back To The Start 20/1 Lorikeet - VV Brown - Leave! 22/1 Eledan - Private - Killer On The Dancefloor 25/1 Bhangra - Jade Ewen - GotMy$h!tTogeva 30/1 Numayania - Alcazar - We Keep On Rockin' 33/1 Jester's Kingdom - Sneaky Sound System - I Love It 35/1 BaNG - Royksopp - Happy Up Here 40/1 Dalisska - Marie Mai - Emenne-Moi 42/1 Ojnoj - Rihanna - Hatin' On The Club 45/1 Cadbury - Imogen Heap - Speeding Cars // 50/1 Nonsuch - Marina & The Diamonds - The Shampain Sleeper 60/1 Fortunia - Kelis - Trick Me 70/1 JRK-off - Natalie Bassingthwaighte - This Can't Be Love 75/1 Rivandia - M83 - Car Chase Terror! 80/1
March 2, 200916 yr I don't think it will come last, I just think it is the least likely to win. If I had to predict who would come last I'd say Fortunia.
March 2, 200916 yr I'm sort of glad my odds are quite low. I definitely don't expect to win first time out.
March 3, 200916 yr Do people really like this Velvet song? I heard it a few months ago and thought it was pretty weak tbh. Fix Me is far superior imo!
