Had absolutely no ideas 10 mins ago but just found the most gorg bit of slow-burn trip hop

Congrats blacksquare, a great top 3 actually! I wish Utopia could've snuck top 10 and Herbilore deserved better. Happy to take my 2nd 28th of the year and I'm glad Jae Stephens did better for Aesthetica than she did for me xx Great hosting dandy! ☺️

Big fan of Cor Lupus and Aesthetica's entries already! Love Frost Children too but that's the one recent song from them that hasn't quite hit for me, so hopefully my mind can be changed!

Cool Me Down is definitely a surprise, great song tho 😭 love the Katie Gavin and Japanese Breakfast songs too - I saw the latter live a few years back and Be Sweet was definitely my highlight!

Confirmed! Gone for something that's giving All I Wanted by Paramore mixed with yeule - hope that's not the same Paramore-esque song already mentioned here 🫢

Congrats Dandy, a great winner! Before confirming I considered sending a different Ninajirachi song, 'iPod Touch', kinda wish I'd done that after all 😄 but very happy with 12th that's a lot higher than I expected for myself! Thank you to all voters, especially Mothertopia for the 18 and thank you Silas for hosting a great contest!

Voted! When I was choosing my entry this month it was between After or a different Ninajirachi song, so loving seeing her in my semi too! Hope you enjoy the All Saints - Pure Shores vibes from Deep Diving x

This sounds exactly like the song I'm confirming, taste if it's the one I'm thinking of ready to reconfirm if necessary x

Thank you so much Calum for running this, it's been so fun to be part of! A great way to bring everyone together and I loved all the creativity and twists along the way. Already scheming about who I'd choose next time 🤭 Congrats Scene on the win!!

Aw sad to see CHVRCHES out but happy they made it this far and that I got to use some underrated songs from Screen Violence! In hindsight I would've saved some of their big hitters for later on, for the final I probably would've used Forever/Get Out/Recover

Woooo glad Jae gets to fight another day! Pleased for Scotland 2 (I actually tried to send that song to the main contest but got vetoed!) and Sovarasma, I know a couple of Jolin's songs thanks to a friend's iconic karaoke renditions but not this one until now! Gutted for Eledan tho :/
