All three of those are decent but unremarkable for me, although I like the production and verses on Love Me Again, but am less on board with John's voice. Waiting All Night is catchy but very repetitive as mentioned already. Look Right Through was certainly one of those songs that could only get to No.1 in 2013. I don't mind it, but don't love it. I remember how it initially fell quickly from No.1 but then stabilised in the 21-40 area for a while, which kind of feels like where I'd expect it to have peaked if released in, say, 2010. Maybe DJ Fresh should have held Gold Dust to 2013 and it would have been a No.1, as it fits the style of this year more than then.

Loved Deepest Blue by... Deepest Blue and their later flop Shooting Star, but Give It Away wasn't amazing, so gone for that too.

Numb/Encore. I don't care too much about Kiss (When The Sun Don't Shine) but it brings some warm and fuzzy nostalgia from being one of the only songs in the end of century/millennium top 10 that wasn't a re-release, a cover or an abomination.

Nor mine, I thought the second choice would be taken. Third definitely not.

Congrats to the ALL-FEMALE top five. Where are The Beatles though!!!

There is that one that is 1BPM higher than the rest tbf.

Zara must be last up, no way she isn't in. I wonder if Adele is one ballad too many to pick a good mix from.

Texas Sharleen the queen.

Oh I'm not sure actually. If not then there are some choices.

Some of these recent few must be the impostors...!

Breathing Your Love!

Too many of my favourite acts in here, hope you all pick songs well! No early exits for legends allowed.

Forever As One to get its flowers I hope!

Hoping to hear Summer, My Way, Acceptable In The 80s etc from Calvin, the vocalist king.

The Female rounds are going to be bloodbaths from the get go.

Dido The Swedes are out in some force too, especially once the inevitable pair turn up too.

Agnes is a threat if played well. Bananarama have many great singles, don't know much of their album tracks.

Elbow I think, as good as it is. I'd rather listen to all the others.

Ed would probably come on and play as himself but would take an early bath when he sends something from Autumn Variations in flops week.

Interesting selection here - I've got 10 I think after a quick bleary eyed look. Will come back to it during the week!

Congrats Sovarasma and Ojnoj, commiserations to the non qualifiers, Mulgracia being the biggest shock for me as had that pegged for a final top half finish.

Yayyyy, always hard to call how retro and Eurodance will do. And not had the best luck outside the alt bloc this year, so delighted to be through with Pandora. Sad for Juranabaijan, that was in my points!

Well done everyone so far, I think many of my faves in my semi have gone through apart from one of my top three.

Bronzil was my 7 pointer if I'd voted in that semi, I didn't mind it being subtle, it sounded nice and very inspired to me, that one is a shame.

One of my three choices was definitely somebody nobody else would have picked, so by process of elimination people will realise I didn't send an act in that category. So I'd be more concerned about making it easier to guess the category some people sent.
