The girls have released this cover today - this is all kinds of epic

I have a soft spot for the Jessica Simpson cover

Rihanna

Putting this out there early I’ve got some choices for BJSC 175. What do people think I should send - with cryptic descriptions in the poll!

Semi 1 was always going to have more of the alt bloc qualifiers. And I am pop leaning :)

Comfortably Ellie Goulding for me

Acid Betty (S8) - liked and thought they were going to do better. Aja (S9, AS3) - haven’t seen AS3. Otherwise meh Alyssa Hunter (S14) - don’t remember much! Bosco (S14) - liked but didn’t love Cynthia Lee Fontaine (S9, S10) - annoying as hell Daya Betty (S14) - nice to see an early exit get another chance and just run with it. Not a massive fan but bravo DeJa Skye (S14) - meh Denali (S13) - capable of more Ginger Minj (S7, AS2 and AS6) - always a fan but I don’t think she should be here Irene the Alien (formerly Dubois, S15) - a great example of why there should be no week one elimination. There was clearly more there but they took a stupid mis-step. Really hope they don’t do a Joe Black and get eliminated straight away again Jorgeous (S14, AS9) - got better but her aesthetic is basic. along with Ginger, don’t think she should be here Kerri Colby (S14) - okay but not great Lydia B Kollins (S17) - haven’t seen S17 yet! Mistress Isabelle Brooks (S15) - the one you love to hate. She can perform though Nicole Paige Brooks (S2) - with a glow up should be good Olivia Lux (S13) - overrated. I’d put her in a category with someone like Blair St Clair (capable of being consistently good but never the best) Phoenix (S3) - I literally cannot remember her Tina Burner (S13) - seemed like there was more but it never came

Done my first listen through of SF2 qualifiers and that semi definitely has the better set of songs

I charted some of these. Looking forward to this comp :)

At least I only lost 2 I guess: 12pts QUALIFIED 10pts QUALIFIED 8pts KYLIENIPS • Shakespears Sister - All The Queen's Horses 7pts QUALIFIED 6pts QUALIFIED 5pts QUALIFIED 4pts QUALIFIED 3pts QUALIFIED 2pts MOTHERTOPIA • Priya Ragu - Vacation 1pt QUALIFIED Looking forward to hearing the SF2 qualifiers

Where is Herbilore here?

I will now finally say - semi final 1 is not that strong in my opinion. Although yes I fully expect a few songs from the semi to fill out the upper regions of the final

Shocker! Thanks to whoever voted for me and for the nice comments in the listen through.

Always great to see Altyr qualify :)

With every set of SF1 qualifiers announced, I get more expectant to be the next NQ revealed. Unless the spread out alt bloc vote did cause some more casualties

Hang on, so no dicks in the final? Wtaf?!!! My 8 pointer gone there with Kylienips

Good to see Jade qualifying :)

Fingers crossed. I'm expecting to come around my usual position of #25. Just hope I don't lose a large chunk of my votes...

I'm with Cody - the non-voters are likely to impact the pop songs.....

Basshunter Here & Now is one of my fave Steps songs. I hope it lasts a few rounds….

U2
