    Not sure what your point at there. It all looks fine to me. The replies counter does not update immediately, if that what your showing us. It is on some process that only does it something like every few minutes or so.
  2. The Good Natured? Nope. The thing about my descriptions is they are not specific enough descriptives in order to work out what is what, so you could assign them to many of the entries. Don't read to much into them, just a bit of fun. BTW 80's beat is a good thing.
  3. Sure. I'm not planning on hiding anything. There is no semi/final to go through so once voting is announced then I'm happy to tell. I may even expand/change them a bit if I get to a second or third listen.
  4. Question: Do you rate the artist or the song or a combination of both? You can have a good artist with a poor tune, or a good tune and a poor artists. So do you rate the tune or the artists or a bit of each?
  5. You'd be correct :D It's a bit different.
  6. I made some comments as I listened to each one. Posting comments here sorted into alphabetic order. I don't think it gives much away, but it might intrigue. - 80's beat. Music tinny. Vocals run of the mill. - A bad joke? - Amazing musical quality intro. Vocals weird. Different. - Attentive piano notes playing to the long build up. Anthem. - Average - BJ friendly - Charming intro. Amazing vocalist. Musically poor, but more then made up with the beautiful vocals. - Charming jam. Light and easy. Short - Cheerful, makes you wanna dance - Comes on well. Choppy turns harmonic. Quite different to anything else, vocals autotuned. - Dark and miserable. Hard to listen to. - Dated, short, background music, chorus nice. - Difficult at first, so cluttered. Gets better, but still messy. - Enchanting anthem like track. Vocal in the chorus are superb. - Energy, Gaga esque sound, good vocals like P!nk. Nothing much else after first 1:30. Last minute dull. - Er, to foreign to connect with. Pleasant enough but not memorable. Vocally nice ending - Erotic video with weird noises - Extreme - Familiar - Funky beat. Tunage. Poor ending - Genetic, no energy - Good beat. Requires a few listens -- Great electric intro. Hit a plateau. - Great intro. Good production. Foreign language. Musical breakdown weak. Went nowhere - Great opening vocals. Great beat. Naff ending - Great start. Good energy but cluttered sound. - Happy intro. Kinda to easy listening - Hypnotic and dancelike. Pity it's not in english. Brave whoever entered this. - Luv dizz song - I think this maybe a hit in the US although I rejected it as my BJSC entry. - Intro ripoff(musically). Upbeat otherwise music weak. Depends a lot on groups vocals, which aren't great. - Jacko intro. Well produced fresh sound. - Just average - Kinda innocent. Nice album tune. - Kinda strange. Can't get into it. - Liking the intro. Summer car tune. Doesn't go anywhere. - Nice build but disappears into blandness - Nice vocalist with trashy rap, urgh - Plenty of production. Parts great. Breakdown poor - Pop tune, with vocals sounding like a certain BJ friendly female - Retro catatonia - Soft vocal sound. Pleasant but average. Naff ending. - Sounds like Mel C. Starts well, no peak, quite a bit of filling. - Sugababe copycats anyone? Can't sing so well. Poor tune. - Superb building intro. Haunting vocals chorus. Lovin' this. - Uninspiring and dull album filler. - Upbeat. Hot chick. The brass instruments don't work well. - Would of entered this if wasn't taken. Great tune. Should win or at least be Top5
  7. Here is my first listen. Will no doubt change with a few listens. 1 10/10 1 9.5/10 1 9/10 1 8.5/10 1 8/10 1 7.5/10 4 7/10 1 6.5/10 3 6/10 2 5.5/10 7 5/10 3 4.5/10 5 4/10 3 3.5/10 5 3/10 4 2/10 1 1.5/10 2 1/10 1 .5/10 Some rubbish but lots of new tunes for me. I love doing the voting and listening to new things. Top 4 tunes are awesome.
  8. Listened to 20 tunes so far. Making a list of comments and a score out of 10. One clear leader at the moment. Will listen to them all a few ties before finalising.
  9. Aaron Fresh! Revised video link.
  10. My entries video has been removed. Video link update pls.

    Glee's - Like a prayer is rather charming, miles better then Vogue. BTW Two versions of Like a prayer and both doing well on iTunes.

    Good call on the UK Chart Forum, would be helpful if Phil amended the link on the homepage to match.
  16. I'm not sure what you mean by left wing. Or that left-wing is the majority but even if so. If say 60% of the public are left-wing on tax and the economy, then Cameron will appeal to the other 40% and let Labour and LibDem divide up the left wing votes. Getting 40% of voters to vote Conservative would very likely be enough to get a majority in parliament.
  17. If he wasn't PM then he's could go to No.10 and run the economy, anything else and I think Gordon would take it bad.
  18. Sky News propaganda ain't it. I guess you read the NOTW today and will be buying the Sun tomorrow. For the Conservatives to have an outright majority they will have to be 10% clear of Labour. Not impossible but not the most likely result at this time. So Sky News just political trash.
  19. I don't think it's in Brown's personality to take such an option like Foreign Office. I could be wrong, but I doubt it.
  20. Anybody voting Labour will have voted for a far-right government. There is not common ground there and it's not been raised in the election to my knowledge. The mandate will be one of change, the message from both the LibDem and the Conservatives.
  21. There are plenty of people on Betfair willing to rip you off give you a good bet, how about you head on over there.
  22. The isn't much different between the 3 parties, nothing as dividing as independence anyway. I think the chances are slightly higher of a Lib-Cons alliance rather then a Lib-Lab, if nothing else because the Liberals would instantly lose some credibility with a vote for change and get Labour again. A Lib-lab alliance could be on the cards if Brown stood down, but I can't see him doing that in a coalition.
  23. Electoral reform will be one of the things that are bargained for whenever coalition talks happen(or not whatever is the case).
  24. I think if Clegg says he would ally with Labour he will lose votes fast. There are more anti-labour voters then anti-conservative voters. So he has to not commit and basically be happy to get the best deal from either party to form a coalition.
  25. There seems widespread misunderstanding of what the polls are for. Opinion polls are not to gauge public opinion but to influence it.
