Congrats Dan, that was both a great entry and a very exciting finish in this bloodbath of a contest. Congrats blacksquare too on the EOY #1! I'm so impressed with N DNTN/XG finishing 11th after being stuck on 1 point for so long in the beginning. Also yay for Mothertopia and Yehesi joining me in the top 20! Speaking of slow starts, glad my 18 (The Spodic Empire) recovered after being stuck on 0, but deserved far better, I'm shocked it was overlooked this much but I guess that's how competitive this contest was. And East Rukahavian certainly didn't deserve last either, when will the racism end? 😢 (I really appreciated the discovery, Mack, thank you for sending it!) This was the entry I've been most looking forward to sending this year, and while I hoped top 10 was a possibility, I'm more than thrilled with 14th. It's my best result in two years, and finally Ary's first top 20, in four attempts spanning almost a decade! I'm even more excited that she finished 3rd in the semifinal *.* Thanks again gooddelta for hosting. I assume we finished behind schedule, but won't mind if that means a shorter break with 181 just around the corner 🙌

Sovarasma points were expected as I discovered my entry from uhsting's chart in the first place but still very very much appreciated!

Points from Kath, FrankLuck and from both ends of the Klum/Aeroche voting bloc. Thank you all! Edit: and POPHub wow, thank you too 😍

Hooray, finally points for 'Dubai'. Now we need that and 'Gala' closer to the top 2 than the bottom 2!

Oh my, what an honor to receive the 18 from Dalisska! Assuming they haven't competed very often in the 18-point era, I must be in small company!

Yay, another 15 from the country I shared the top two with two Decembers ago. Thanks Utopia!

Lewis Thanks for the 15! Thanks DaTilt for the 11 also! Brer did this at least once before if I remember correctly!

28. David Nail - Red Light A strange one for my highest from the 2000s, but it's a country hit from 2009 that I still adore. 81. Nelly - Country Grammar 84. The Postal Service - The District Sleeps Alone Tonight 91. Brandi Carlile - My Song 99. Aaron Smith feat. Luvli - Dancin (Krono Remix)

As someone who's also been back for three contests, I agree with you!
