Probably 1BF but I’d be open to an old school contest with a smaller final of 32 and 15 Qs per semi. But I think the format rules make everything under 50 1BF by default. BJSC folks, heart react for semis and thumbs up for one big final! EDIT - There is no difference in how long both options take as 1BFs have a longer voting period

Can someone please explain to me what this emoji means? 🙈

Up to forty entrants. I quite fancy ‘winning a day’ soon so I may do one of those react to my post polls that Silas did last time around to decide between one big final and semis 🤭 Press 👍 for semis React ❤️ for one big final Go for me to just choose people to eliminate without semis Finally 😮 to make Silas and Cody fist fight it out to gain entry to the final

Okay I'm out on a school trip so I'm closing this until I'm home, these year 7s are better behaved

Hi, it's Mattias (Deandria in BJSC), I'd like to enter a few song contests after a very long break if that's okay? I'm nervous and also not used to this new layout so bear with me haha

Be careful searching Blue intimate shows!

Massive congratulations to @Scene on the win, you played the game so brilliantly with Avril and although you had me sweating thinking Avril was done over with that choice at the end there, she pulled through I'll be in touch with you soon with the prize!! @King Rollo also deserves a heap of praise for Pet Shop Boys getting to second place! I wouldn't have called that at the beginning, and (unlike a-ha ) I've had some great discoveries over the rounds with their music when I otherwise wouldn't really give them the time of day. @Addy! did brilliantly with Christina too and managed to recover well with some choices that saw him in danger. And I'm ngl I was kinda rooting against Xtina in the final to save having to worry about how to convert the prize into USD for you !!! I honestly really didn't expect there to be so much interest in this or for it to take off the way it has, so thank you so much to everybody for all of your involvement, enthusiasm and support. @Tafty has been an amazing support of everything to do with this behind the scenes, and has so many great ideas for where we can take it from here. Besides those already tagged, @Jack @JosephBoone @Bjork @Ansel @Herbs @Last Dreamer @AllStarBySmashMouth @Spiceboy @Brer @HarryGarfield @seven. @Lukuzz @Dj Cheeky magpie @Jade @-Jay- @Mangø @awardinary @jimwatts @vibe - thank you for bringing everything to this, being such amazing sports throughout all the rounds, introducing everybody to some amazing music, and having the best time! And for all your kind words throughout. Happy to be bringing something that gives everyone else fun and joy on here! And thank you to everybody else who showed their support by voting in all the rounds, and all of the guest judges for playing along with the roles - @dandy* @Big Fat Sue @Josh! @Julian_ @danG @gooddelta @AaronTM @elgornio @Paddington James @Snazzy @Viper* @Rogue and @RobBot! I'll leave you all with one last thing... 👀

This week we celebrate BJSC's 18th birthday! The contest was established on 23rd November 2007, making Sunday just gone the big day! Happy birthday BJSC and thank you for all the amazing memories, great musical discoveries, and the friendships it has helped to form. Come and join in the festivities if you haven't already confirmed!

Hi all, inspired by The Chain going 5x platinum the other week and the questions surrounding it, I have compiled a full list of every song that has received a platinum disc despite never hitting the top 40!

So, in an interesting turn of events I only just returned to the contest the other day and I'm already hosting. Dalisska is very happy to welcome you all to Lyndra (our beautiful coastal capital city) for the upcoming 182nd Buzzjack Song Contest! Last edition, Cheiron won for the first time with their song "Out of My Head" by First Aid Kid. Will we get another first time winner for BJSC 182 or will someone add another 1st place trophy to their collection? Only time will tell! Confirmations will be opening on the 11th of February. Use this thread to....tbh I'm not fully sure what happens in a green room thread! Be green and discuss things! 👽 (While I was figuring out what banner I'd make, I discovered a Japanese artist called Mizuki Heitaro, who has many pieces of artwork from the 1930s that are in the public domain. So I'm hoping to make a few more banners similar to the above one for the contest using their work)

Surely we don’t really think the charts should be dictated by a few gays aged 30-50 having a bit of fun instead of by what the country is listening to… I know many of us are in that demographic but really.

Found the post and the photo!

I bought Jade’s album because my local Asda gives you 3 hours free parking if you spend £5 or more there. They do that because it’s next door to my local shopping centre where you have to pay to park. Couldn’t think of anything to buy but I came across Jade’s album so I bought it to get my free parking

Also THIS was the look I got from Mr D* earlier when I explained we couldn't watch the final of Sewing Bee live because I was going to be presenting the results of a pretend song contest

Side note: for the 2nd semi-final there has been some demand to include songs that were certified platinum after round 1 closed and semi final 1 started. There are two songs that have done this: to make things fair, I would like you to vote on which track you want to include as a wildcard in the 2nd semi-final. If you want Alphaville's "Forever Young" as a wildcard, react to this post with a like/👍 If you want Bob Marley & The Wailers' "Redemption Song" as a wildcard, react to this post with a heart/❤️ The song with more reactions by 11:30 BST on 7th July gets added into the 2nd semi-final's pool of songs!

That is episode one of Masked Singer levels of clue difficulty 😂 Jonathan Ross: What was the clue about the aubergine about? Natalie Cassidy: Oh that referenced episode 1346 of Eastenders when I walked past the market stall that sold vegetables Jonathan Ross: Oh of course! Can't believe we didn't spot that!

Aren’t people excited at the prospect of us not having the same Christmas no.1 for the third year running? Something that felt like a foregone conclusion only a couple of weeks ago! Who cares if the Kylie track is rubbish (I haven’t heard it yet so I don’t know) or that, like all Christmas songs, it drops out quickly? It’s showing us that there is still some hope and that Christmas no.1 can be exciting again. It used to be the best chart of the year. It’s been boring for some time. FairPlay to Kylie for mounting a challenge.

Just gonna put this here - nothing wrong with not enjoying Lullaby as a song but any hate for the cause can be taken elsewhere (and if you're siding with Tommy Robinson on anything, this probably isn't the forum for you).

It’s time… for Mr Blobby. The 1993 Christmas No.1 now streaming.

Get those car parking validation sales Jade

I'll ask down my local tonight why ordinary streams are down

Let’s face it, who other than a handful of geriatric gays would stream Miss VB. (Me, I am geriatric gays)

https://bjscfm.page.radio/ Fancy a late Christmas present? If you're mourning the lack of Buzzjack Song Contest at the moment or you're disappointed that "The Best Of" hasn't returned - let me introduce you to an alternative and re-introduce you to an old friend of mine... for one week only. We're waving goodbye to 2025 but not before celebrating the year one last time with a series of shows over the next few weeks, dedicated to highlighting the biggest and the best that BJSC 171 - 180 had to offer. All day, every day, you'll be able to tune in to this link right the way through until January 2nd. But each day will have a select time slot dedicated to celebrating "the best of", with some rundowns of 2025's biggest success stories on New Years Eve and New Years Day. On New Years Eve, from 4pm, I'll be running down the top 40 countries of the year (via your End Of Year leaderboard), playing two songs from each of the nations who cracked the top 40. On New Years Day, from 4pm, I'll be running down the top 100 songs of the year (statistically) - did your entry manage to make it there? You'll have to wait and find out. Hit the link above, come and celebrate 2025 one last time with BJSC FM! SCHEDULE: Friday 26th: Nothing But Medallists (7pm - 8:30pm) Saturday 27th: The Best Of: Pop (7pm - 8:30pm) Sunday 28th: The Best Of: Dance (7pm - 8:30pm) Monday 29th: The Best Of: Alternative (7pm - 8:30pm) Tuesday 30th: The Best Of: The DNQ's (7pm - 8:30pm) Wednesday 31st: Top 40 Countries Of The Year (4pm - TBC) Thursday 1st: Top 100 Songs Of The Year (4pm - TBC)

Update from SayHey...... She still sold more copies than Wham! yesterday (7,709 vs. 6,093) - Kylie 46,326 Wham! 35,934

I’ve been with my boyfriend over four years and while he’s well aware of Buzzjack, I will protect him from knowing I play a game as a pretend country for as long as is physically possible. The idea of MY MUM knowing is another level 😭😭

scenes when Alexa gets Kylie a Christmas #1 and Buzzjack doesn't know whether to get excited cos it's Kylie or annoyed cos it's Alexa and the song wouldn't be top 10 on a level playing field

No she turned 49 earlier in the week x

(Inspired by Sabrewulf)

The last time the FCP thread got more than 22 pages was June 2023... probably not a coincidence that a certain song with 'Padam' in the title twice was fighting for a top ten place that week

It's up to RAYE to release a Christmas remix and play the game. Where Is My Present remix please.

Of course Pet Shop Boys in ANOTHER contest! 🤣

I just want to add that I hope everyone knows that in no way I am trying to bring/create drama this late in the contest!!! I enjoy the contest way too much so this was not an easy decision to make, but I just feel better sitting this one out!!! Thanks to everyone who reached out <3.

Damn, thought she'd have fallen to #2 by now

A few for #10 Nat King Cole - Tenderly (1954) The Chi-Lites - Too Good To Be Forgotten (1974) Sonia - Listen To Your Heart (1989) Elton John & Leann Rimes - Written in the Stars (1999)

ACR rules is a hot topic of discussion down the local pubs clearly

The White House

Inspired by comments in the certifications thread this week, I've compiled a list of albums with all tracks on their standard tracklist certified by the BPI. If you are wondering why I have only listed deluxe tracklists for some albums, that is because all of the deluxe tracks have also been certified. I believe interludes/skits that are over 30 seconds count for the charts but those that are under 30 seconds do not! If there's any I've missed please let me know, thanks!

Vicky B must’ve had 1 million missing streams x

Looks like it's Harry Styles vs. Vicky B for #1 next week.

I just love doing the certifications and observing the charts. It pleases my little, autistic brain.

11Hendinia grow tired of simply qualifying year after year and win at least twice The EOY is highly contested, with Fljótavík, Cor Lupus, Hendinia, Bøtanikkä, Jadakissnia, and Pestolia all in contention. FARC forgets to vote once, taking themselves out of the running Danæviia extend their top-20 streak for another year, with Aeroche joining them. Both finish in the EOY Top 10 Bøtanikkä send smash after smash A new nation is an immediate hit, exceeds all expectations, and quickly becomes part of the BJSC furniture Sarah Kinsley makes a contested return and wins. Drama ensues: Brer calls the song overrated and shares stats on how often he doesn’t vote for the winner 50% of winners are by artists with previous hits An entry with either zero or just one win prediction goes on to win, surprising everyone Obvious pop songs still win, but take a beating, with fewer top-ten finishes overall AI is banned after winning, with Persephonia finishing runner-up. The thread descends into chaos. Elëdan remains iconic and leads the charge against AI entries Taahino enters something Marina-esque within the first three months FSR Rontvia send an underrated spoken-word track that receives multiple 18 points but is snubbed by the pop bloc Dobago and Kathaldazia both try to send the same song twice, one of them DNQs A pop nation and an alt nation both try to send the same song, it wins Bronzil and Pestolia become the new tastemaker IT girls Zanmatony reminisces about the good old days and tries to lure a few nations back Hinterlandia return for one month, gets a hit, and then disappears back into the forest Bronzil, Pestolia, Cheiron, Cumulonimbia, N DNTN, Aesthetica, and POPHub all achieve podium finishes at least twice Jadakissnia qualify every month Sandénia make a major comeback, while Mothertopia break out in a big way Neliönoir DNQs, threatens to take a break all year, but never actually does Cor Lupus continues their qualification streak but still has a meltdown about the possibility of a DNQ every month. Elëdan comments each time Deandria achieve six consecutive qualifiers for the first time ever Herbilore get their first top three, then ponder why they only received 220 votes instead of 240 Greenfroze and Séyetana exchange 18 points at least three times Jupiterdonia drops personal lore during a listenthrough More nations start taking part in the listenthroughs BJSC participation increases for a few months, before dropping back down to its lowest point mid-year Skall start sending more unhinged entries than both Scotland 2 and Trifoski Inspired by Rob, one host creates a radio show and presents their contest A winning nation decides not to host, Sovarasma does instead République d’Áskorza lose it after being placed in every semi-final with a 10+ minute entry, including one featuring some form of animal sound Ajanaeda continue to be bullied by random.org and are repeatedly placed in alt-heavy semi-finals East Rukahavian, Pagasa, and Terra Avium have some of their most successful years yet

Did someone not get their mum to refresh the forum for the confirmations thread and submit because they were unavailable and really wanted an entry and I think they knew someone else wanted it 😭

Patrick Wolf's The Magic Position peaked at number 69

I've said this before and I'll say it again, the "mockery" of people is rarely to do with the core point. We can all agree, when I responded to the "Manchild tanking" calls last week, that Liam was correct that Manchild WAS declining, that it seemed likely it wouldn't be #1 because of this, and it looked likely to continue declining. The same can be said of Dior this week, Liam is again correct - it's down 60k/70k on last week, that bodes badly for it making #1 on its best opportunity yet. The mockery of members in here is often because people make "click bait", reactionary statements akin to The Sun newspaper headlines you see on Facebook. People are forever describing things as "dropping off a cliff", "catastrophic falls", "distastrous debuts" etc, whether it be Ed, Chappell, Sabrina etc this year alone. These threads would be so much better to read if people had levelled conversations and mature discussions that weren't so full of exaggeration and intensified negativity, because it's clear most of you are passionate about the charts, you're clued up about what's going on and you're able to notice patterns in statistics etc.

All you f**king w***rs who didnt want Nick Jonas to be #1 suck my d!!! Jess Glynne didnt f**king deserve it again,, PATHETIC just like all you Nick J haters!!!
