Cool, I thought it was just the winners, which would be a bit boring (with apologises to Rontvia, Mdice etc :lol:)

Hopefully Velvet will make it to the final :wub: of BOBJSC XI-XX

some CLOOZ about what exactly Nelly Furtado means with Hands Up In The Air

 

The song is sung from the first person perspective to a lover. The lover is controlling and does not listen. The lover demands subservience, telling the singer that this is the reality of love. The singer, who is not happy with the way their relationship is, longs for 'yesterday' - when it is assumed their love was good - but things do not change. The chorus translates to "I do not have the strength to fight you (lit: I do not have the weapons to combat you), so i throw my arms, my arms into the air, loving you is the only thing that matters to me, in body and in soul, like it used to be." In this song, throwing one's hands in the air is an act of surrender, not a reference to dancing, as many had speculated.

 

 

ahhh :wub:

I got the gist of that from the lyric TBH :kink: It is even better when you understand it tho :wub:

while listening to semi 1 all day long, Ghostcat received the award for most repeat in my PC :wub:...such a grower.

I already have one place in the Best Of Spin-off :kink:

:w00t:

still two nul pointers across the two semis, both are quite surprising, one becuase I thought it would do very well, particularly in the semi that it's in, and the other is fairly shocking considering the initial hype surrounding it

 

decipher the clues Aaron :kink:

I'd guess that's one of the R&B bloc and the other is either Nelly Furtado, Shakira or Ke$ha.

I hope it's not Shakira :snif: Or Nelly or Kesha :o At least i know 10 songs that are not nul-pointers :o

Looks like this contest could have surprises in store.. However, it's still early days and things may change :o

Like Jack said, the one is in the rnb bloc but i don't see the other one being in the 2nd semi, so it's in Semi 1 either.

 

My bets are Shy'm and Le Kid.

from semi 1 it might be either Nelly or Veronicas :o

Kath, I REALLY have no idea where you get some of your hyperbole from sometimes :lol: I don't understand how you could've seen EVERYONE eating this Tasha Baxter track up - which isn't to say my opinion on the track, but that it clearly isn't the kind of thing everyone would fall in love with! :P

Votedddd. Kopečka were shocked at their 7 pointer :o Voting was fairly easy - I thought there were 13 or so tracks that were distinctly better than the rest, and it was quite easy to whittle down the three tracks to get my final votes. Good quality overall though! ^_^

Looks like people got there before me. Clearly one of the R&B bloc and possibly Kesha? Though I'd be surprised if some songs in that semi had points over it, I found it quite a disappointing semi when I listened. Don't think much in Semi 1 has been hyped...

Nuxleyville or Liechtenstaan possible nul pointers in SF2, one of the R&B bloc in SF1 I reckon...and I think I know which member of the R&B bloc if it's true! :P Either that or Yohanna in SF1...

I really can't be bothered to start listening :lol:

I can send you links to mp3's. It makes it easier 11 thousand times. :D (Why 11 :blink: LOL)
