Josh!

We agree on almost all of these scores!!! Do you have Letterboxd, Conor?

Cineworld, as I’ve been a member for about ten years. We have a big 16 screen cinema in the city centre which shows most things. I am nervous about the closures though, especially after hearing the huge Nottingham one wasn’t safe and the fact my home town Cineworld in Bedford closed last year :( If Cineworld isn’t showing something, then we go to the local independent cinema as a treat. We wouldn’t really go to another chain unless we were in another city or something but then we’re not usually watching films on our holidays. I’d like to go to the indie ones more, or Everyman as it’s such a nice experience, but moviegoing really does cost a fortune nowadays.

Sally Trademark is really stylish. I’d love that!

More mediocre songs :nocheer: I’m usually her biggest defender but this era is just terrible. The most bland pop music imaginable. I’ve listened twice to the deluxe tracks and they just washed over me.

Thank you Herb! Glad you were able to make a discovery x

Our highest placing since BJSC 70 so 100 contests ago (of course, we've been on hiatus for quite a lot of those). It's been really fun being back this year so we're definitely looking to keep on entering in 2025. Thanks for all the support from our voters.

Oooh it was exciting to be up there for once!!! I think this is our best ever result in our entire nation’s history so yay for that! All the ones battling it out for the win were faves of mine so I’m really pleased with the results. Hushkanukia and Aeroche had just missed out on my votes too.

High body count hair will be entering my daily lexicon. I’m also obsessed with the way Angie says “I think I look like a mother” right after, hahahahah

I implore you all to go and listen to this because the lyrics are wild.

Haven't had hype like this in years so I hope we can end the year with a bang!!! Mothertopia and I have been having discussions over dinner about who we think will take the gold. My money's on Hushkanukia or Kluminican Republic with outsider chances for the more out there stuff from Botanikka and Trifoski.

I'll keep you posted :P

I'm at Manchester tonight! Setlist should be a bit of a surprise with it being the first UK date. Brat on repeat for our journey down there x 3rd time seeing her which matches Florence + the Machine with the artist I've seen most live :cheer:

I managed to get Wembley but not as close as I'd like!!! I still might try later on for closer. I'm so excited because she's my favourite artist ever. I hope she doesn't cancel like she did last time I had UK tickets, rahhh!!

I love reading these too :heart:

Hopefully Bre can remind me too , haha .

Aw, I was rooting for Rob/Hendinia at the very end there! TRUST is a great track and is easily my favourite song on the contest but I thought I'd prioritise my 18 for a song that I wasn't familiar with beforehand. I'm glad Rebecca Black is finally getting some attention for her great output after years of ridicule. Her past few eras have been full of hidden gems. I'm glad Kangaroo did decently. It's only an album track but it instantly stood out to me on Remi's album. Surely a future single if she's going to push any more. Thanks to all my voters but especially to Zanmatony for the big 18 and also Altyr, Niceland, and Trifoski for some other high scores! Thank you for hosting so well, Lew. I especially enjoyed the theming of The Substance. Hopefully you've inspired some Buzzjackers to check it out!

I’ve voted so hopefully you’ve got my votes lew? Xx

10 out of 10 and Midnight Ride are the only two I’d say I actively like. Both are great though! The one with Sia is like nails on a chalkboard, and I hate how cheap and disjointed My Oh My sounds. Edge of Saturday Night is just there for me, fine but very generic.

No, it’s true, Rob! We do sometimes test out BJSC potentials over the speaker when making Hello Fresh together so I must admit that his entries often get stuck in my head already, haha :lol:

12 10 08 07 06 05 KYRIATINE 04 HERBILORE 03 RAMRYNIA 02 JUPITERDONIA 01 Sad to be losing that middle chunk :(

Yay at gettin through. It may only be 4 in a row but that’s my longest consecutive qualifier streak ever in the history of Ajanaeda, wahoo!!! My 12/10/8 pointers all through already, yay. Happy for Macromia as it’s always nice to get your first qualifier. Shocked at Herbilore though!!

Tell me you can't hear it!!!!!! The notes are exact. Thank you for hosting the contest Lindsey! and I'm glad you seemed to enjoy my Taahino inspired entry.

Ajanaeda voted !

Am I mad or can anyone hear the same chords from JLo’s “First Love” at the start of Jadakissnia’s entry????
