Yeah Sam for me too, good one hit wonder. You don’t hear it much now but it was everywhere back then.

Agnes had the hardest time of any act here imo. Some thought it was me, but clearly not (well done Scene!) but I absolutely wouldn’t have played her any differently. To go out with Here Comes The Night (incredible track) and then Release Me (one of the best ever) is a double dose of cruel! However, of course Running Up That Hill is legendary and a fully deserved return, and no surprise at all! Well done to their mentor.

Ooh ok, Tafty not Sam Fender haha. Leona deserved better, I will forever love her. Well done doing quite well with her overall. Bleeding Love is an epic.

Tove did well to beat Stan! But Talking Body is great of course, I felt so bad for their mentor after round one. Nicely done in this round Harry.

Aww both acts good. Jessie has some great tracks and a few were played, while poor Rob sent his album track round a week early and would have flown otherwise with the great Dido I’m sure. Well played both though. Stan is incredible of course.

Poor Milica, knew it was Uhsting anyway as they sent her to PFSC with this same song, but it became obvious when Uhsting stopped voting after she went out. She does have some very boppy songs but that category was savage, so an underdog was never going to go that far. Hope Dandy is ok, Robyn was played really well indeed and definitely could have contended.

Aww damn, well firstly well done Addy and it became very clear last week you were behind Calvin!! I wonder how I'm Not Alone would have done. I did rank We Found Love top anyway in this round myself but see why others marked it down. Fully deserved for Gary's mentor, Cars is legendary.

Sam Fender, I'm positive! Although have been wrong a lot.

Big surprise for me that Lindsey isn't Marina, wow. Someone else is doing an incredible job with her.

Aww, that was a really solid track from Hrvy and through this I learnt that I like a lot more of his songs than I'd have expected, he ranked high for me several times, nice job Calum! And amazing job on the hosting, of course.

Roosevelt was a nice act to discover, some quite funky songs. Damien Rice provided many of my favourite discoveries of the series (including this week's which I ranked third), thanks Herbs.

A friend randomly asked me the other day if I had heard of Mackenzy - thanks to this the answer was yes! A couple of brave choices there, albeit inspired so well done to both.

Oh big congrats Depeche Mode mentor, tbf either of those acts could have gone far in the lives. It’s a shame how Y&Y went out as they had a lot to give, well done Jay for some great mentoring.

Wow, I knew Addy wasn’t Vengas as wouldn’t send a second group in a row presumably but didn’t expect Wardy at all, was so sure Wardy had Sam Smith! No big surprise with M83, felt clear it was Chez after I realised it wasn’t Iz.

Very surprised Vienna was that low though.
