BJSC 174 - SASAMI - Slugger (I keep forgetting to update this thread as the semis go up!) After NQing last month I decided to go back to the previous month’s entry and pick another bop from SASAMI… let’s see how it does in comparison to I’ll Be Gone I think the chorus is such an ear worm… I find myself singing the “like Dolly in 9 to 5” line all the time!

This was my initial pick for this months competition! LOVE this song!!

Love that intro for Mothertopia, Addy! Is a great mantra for our nation! I’ll be using that, haha!

Mothertopia Nationals getting ready for landing

All I know is Mothertopia will be back in the conversation…

Such a strong final!! Just finished my first listen through and have 28 (!!!) songs I could give points too! Cutting that down to 15 is going to be brutal !

BJSC 174 - Priya Ragu - Vacation Priya Ragu - Vacation Wasn’t meant to be this month… forgot to update this thread before the Semi’s finished, lol. Sad my streak is over but will have to start again next month. Unsure why this didn’t connect, maybe just a strong month and in a more alt semi, who knows?

My streak is over!! And coming 21st!! Very very evil. Sick and twisted I would say. just gonna have to come back bigger and badder next month!

Voted! That was a fun listen through !!

Omggggg not Jordan Firstman being sent?! Love him and unironically think it’s a bop!! This was a potential of mine for a future month! Hoping it makes it through SF2! I am shook at Mae Muller making it through the veto, she was on the Eurovision stage two years ago! Cheap! That being said, I’m sure it’ll do very well! I’m also obsessed with that Debbii Dawson song right now… a banger!

Honestly Ajanaeda is an unpredictable nation! Whenever we are discussing what entries we’re enjoying in a particular month I’m normally quite surprised by their favs, lol! I would say an iconic female pop banger is a safe bet, but there have been plenty of (IMO) massive bangers that Ajanaeda are lukewarm to, and then you also run the risk of solely relying on the “pop bloc” … it’s a balancing act
