One of the most promising signs that I've seen is a set of polls taken in New Hampshire. The first was taken back at the end of last month after that debate and it indicated a Trump lead of 2% - a new poll came in with about the same amount of participants (over 2000) and Kamala is leading by 6%. I know that New Hampshire is typically a Democratic leaning state but isn't this a good indicator to the whole country's reaction to her candidacy? On another promising note, some Pennsylvanian polls have come in showing Kamala leading but it is very slight lead. I do think she will eventually be able to have a comfortable lead there without the assistance of Shapiro tbh. Mark Kelly definitely seems like the right choice now for VP considering Josh Shapiro's stance on Palestine that Kamala hopefully disagrees with (he apparently compared Pro-Palestine protesters to the KKK eep).

I'm pretty happy with my pairing! I will try my best to conjure up a hit, hopefully x

Thanks for assembling that Dan!

I think it'll be ok but be incredibly quick please!

We've got some vetoes to sort out and as soon as they've been resolved I'll get the voting thread up!

That music video :heart: It couldn't be any better! That new snippet does indeed sound promising, hopefully he might ride the wave of his success right now and drop an album soon! 'Keep a horn on me that Kamasi' :cheeseblock: Sax god Kamasi Washington getting a shoutout by Kendrick wasn't expected but is greatly appreciated x

CONFIRMATIONS ARE CLOSED Thanks to the 24 participants that entered :cheer:

'BRAT' to win please :cheeseblock: I've heard 'Silence Is Loud', 'Lives Outgrown', 'Prelude To Ecstacy' and 'This Could Be Texas' and they're all great albums! Additionally I've heard a small amount of 'On Purpose, With Purpose' and it sounded really promising. Will have to give this list a listen!

If anyone want to enter at the last minute then you have until 12:30 PM BST x

Hi Jade! Looking back, I'm still a little shocked that 'Good Luck, Babe!' wasn't instant for me. I truly adore the song now :heart: I listened to to salute's new album and it was terrific! One of the essential dance albums from this year for me :wub: Agreed that 'saving flowers' and 'lift off!' are the best two songs from it! I'm a cat person as well but this past tweleve months have really been sonically dominated by dogs for me :lol: Whether that is Fat Dog, Dog Race or tracks from Drake's 'For All The Dogs'. We need some more cat-stanning acts ASAP. It was great to see 'Sympathy is a knife' become a chart hit for Charli, probably the largest grower from 'BRAT' for me! Hi James! It did fall quite quickly from #1 indeed oop. But 'Lithonia' is very strong competition so..... 'BRAT' has been so successful for Charli and I'm over the moon :heart: Charli is now a critical darling, an icon and a commercial Queen. Better than being an EGOT tbh. It has been a little surprising to see 'Apple' of all the songs from 'BRAT' going viral but it is 100% deserved. It's unbelievably catchy x. Interesting that 'HOT TO GO' is your least fave of the charters, I did find it a little annoying at first but now I'm fully on board! Hopefully 'Joyride' is a grower for you :( Hi Dan! Honestly, I don't think I had ever heard a Salute song before 'Saving Flowers' but that song has definitely hooked me on their style! 'life off!' is fab. Indeed, Fat Dog hath SERVED again! Hi Sergej! Quavo and Lana has surprisingly excellent chemistry on 'Tough' :D 'Satellite Business 2.0' and 'In The Night' are divine offerings from their respective artists :wub: Hi Jack! Abeltesfayetonian alumni Dog Race have SERVED again :cheeseblock:

The results for Semi one couldn't be much better :heart: All of the nations that I voted for qualified :cheer: A shame that Pestolia, Sandénia, Conoria, Aelandor, Harmonica and Herbilore couldn't make it :( They were all pretty close to getting votes from us x 11th | Pestolia 12th | Sandénia 13th | Conoria 16th | Aelandor 17th | Harmonia 18th | Herbilore 22nd | Hushkanukia 28th | Numayania

Final Reminder below x ONLY TWO HOURS REMAINING TO ENTER

Fljótavík, Cumulonimbia, Neliönoir, Zanmatony, Scotland 2 & Bøtanikkä are all fantastic qualifiers :wub:

I'm incredibly glad East Rukahavian and Jadakissnia made it through considering a few DNQ predictions for them :cheer:

Ooh, YES at République d'Áskorza and Kathaldazia qualifying!

Thank you all :heart: I think that's by far the quickest time that I've received my result in the semis! I typically discover if I've qualified right at the end of the results :lol: Yay at FARC qualifying :cheer:

Hoping to continue my qualification streak but not sure I will actually! There are some essentials in semi 1 that must get through I beg

They are! If anyone gets vetoed, I'll give those affected some extra time to reconfirm x We're up to 19 entries now with nearly six hours left to enter!

It's the final day to enter! Confirmations shut at 23:59 BST tonight but realistically I'll accept late entries until noon tomorrow perhaps.

Albums: Charli xcx - Girl so confusing (with Lorde pls) Twenty One Pilots - Overcompensate

Just over 24 hours now! We're up to 15 entries so far...

NEW MUSIC TEASED :cheeseblock: @1815800920644702544 :o It's called 'Hold Your Heart' and it sounds like a freaking masterpiece :heart: It's so atmospheric :wub: I'm hearing strong rumours of this getting dropped on Friday!

ooh, this should be fantastic!
