They need to bring back the 23/24 music, not a fan of this high-pitched, squeaky jingle.

Ahhh Grangeclare just has this 'feel' of a winner doesn't it...

Cheering this entry on from the other semi!

Alliterative songs - the band/artist and title must begin with the same letter

We're on board, seatbelts loosely fastened!

Would be more inclined to move this to Pop personally. I'm also a fan of this, very catchy.

Brutal start time for the first race, it better deliver!

Last series I watched was the Colin Thackery one.

A fascinating resource - impressive!

iloveitiloveitiloveit & I Knew You Were Trouble

They'd best avoid sending another song with Glitter in the title given how badly that went the previous time.

Like all of these 6 remaining, Cable Car is the one I'd least likely revisit.

Have ALL My hype, this is a stunner!

This is a very striking entry and think it should perform rather well!

Bad Bunny - Tití Me Preguntó (#18) - a bit annoying this one Charli xcx - Dying For You (#27) - dull and boring Charli xcx - Always Everywhere (#33) - she's really not one for ballads Central Cee - ICEMAN FREESTYLE (#37) - cute Nokia sample aside it's nothing to write home about Luke Combs - Be By You (#47) - strong contender already for worst song of 2026, couldn't even make it half way through Fred again.. and Jamie T - Lights Burn Dimmer (#49) - Fred rarely ever misses and this is another top effort, great to see Jamie T back in the chart again too Central Cee - SLAUGHTER (feat. J Hus) (#54) - zzzzz Ewan McVicar - Share The House (#79) - wow what hideous vocals YEEEEWWW... very uninspired house otherwise anyway Brent Faiyaz - other side. (#95) - nice vibe to this, very Miguel Brent Faiyaz - wrong faces. (#96) - bit on the duller side this one however Voted Fred/Jamie & Brent.

Harmonica came to EAT this contest!

J'adore ARTCORE

Well done dhwe! I kinda had that one down as a clear favourite when listening through the songs, one of the easiest 12s I've given in one of these although the Lucky song was a brilliant discovery as well and would have been equally happy with that prevailing. And of course French Affair was the only song I knew pre-contest and gave me big entry envy as had it come to my mind I probably would have tried submitting that myself. On the same lines I knew that my entry was absolutely doomed in this field as it was totally against the "sound" of the contest but I was simply unfortunate in that not a single song on either of my potentials playlists was eligible for this theme so had no choice but to dig through old Personal Charts and send something that I once considered for BJSC (good job it was never wasted there!) So no sour grapes whatsoever at propping up the table this time as it did sound so generic in a field of much more inspired entries. Big hand to gooddelta for hosting, was nice to be involved in this style of points reveal which you know I was a big fan of from being an observer in BJSC 180!

Ahead of the curve this time for once ;)

I think if recent contests are anything to by it's better if your song is against the grain of most of its counterparts as it'll stand out more.
