Round 7: Year End Survivor #107
Definitely Bob of those 4. Rare I'm voting for something that good at this stage, but a clear gap between that and the other 3.

Round 1: Year End Survivor #109
What a list that is! Went for Son of Dork, don't really remember the song, just that everything about them was awful. Has to be a clear favourite two for the final.

Premier League 2024/2025
It's difficult to predict with Forest, however I wouldn't be overly confident of our downfall coming. In the first half of the season we were as high as second due to being relentless against the bottom half of the division (9 wins, 1 draw) whilst we struggled against the top half (2W, 3D, 4L), all that's happened so far is that pattern has continued (1W 1D 3L / 2W), but the unfortunate randomness of fixture scheduling has 7 of 8 games against top half teams including 4 in a row against the only 4 to beat us in the first half - Fulham, Newcastle, Arsenal, Man City - but it's feasible we could lose to all those teams again and still be in the Champions League positions after. To be in that position having played the rest of the top 6 twice already can only be one of incredible strength.

Indie Track of the Week
Don't even need to give anything a second listen this week, comfortably Suki Waterhouse. Fontaines is OK but really far from what they're capable of. Everything else too boring or bad rock to make me contemplate hearing it again.

Electronic Track of the Month: January 2025
DJ Heartstring, Ela Minus and Otik for me, though far from a vintage list.

Self Esteem - A Complicated Woman
Focus Is Power is fine, if might not be exactly what I'd have hoped for but as long as it's not completely indicative of what her direction is, certainly a lot better than Big Man was. Can't disagree with any of the comments on 69 though :|

St. Lucia for me, good return Oklou, Inhaler, Squid and Chloe also good.

Round 3: Year End Survivor #107
Rare to be voting something as good as Jamelia in Round 3. I mean I say good, I can't say I've any desire to hear it but it's perfectly ok and inoffensive at least.

Heartworms - Glutton For Punishment
I think I agree about it being underwhelming, not something I'll be in a rush to keep listening to. It feels like if I ranked all of her songs from best to worst it would look very similar to a list in chronological release order.

Dog's Dinner. That and Stereophonics songs I'd listen to again after this week.

Indie Track of the Week
TBH I'm all for there not being a song off a brand new included as hard to know which is necessarily being pushed, and in this day and age all those are typically done before the album's release. If it had been running longer, I'm sure fka Twigs would have had 2-3 entries previously included, and wouldn't definitely necessitate a 4th this week.
