When you find out you’re going to New Lexico and not Skall

The drive-by drag for no reason is absolutely sending me

Did the washing and now all your clothes are black, sorry Qween x (nelly votes are in)

Maybe But really, @Doctor Blind , come and collect your prize for finally getting me onto Grace Ives x

One of my favourite BJSC things happened this month, an entry made me give an album a second chance and now I am hooked 🖤 feels especially great after last month was a bit of a slog

Obsessed with this / her / Switcheroo

I think SF2 is absolutely delicious x Votes incoming 🖤

You could be right! There aren’t many big alternative contenders this month, definitely fewer than usual, which helps. I still see Charlotte Cardin as the kind of song that picks up votes everywhere, even from unexpected nations (all of this is subject to change if someone from the listenthrough said it went down like TOMORA) 👀 My top 10 is currently something like this 
01 Ojnoj // Charlotte Cardin // The Way We Touch 02 Fljótavík // Joshua Idehen // Mum Does The Washing
 03 République d'Áskorza // Ditonellapiaga // Che Fastidio!
 04 Hendinia // Baby Jane // Starry Eyed 
05 Altyr Muunilinst // Natalie Jane // sabotage 
06 Mothertopia // horsegiirL // only the best
 07 Cor Lupus // ena mori // 19 Underground 
08 Neliönoir // frutiger dillon // big chemistry ♡
 09 Bronzil // Cult Of Venus // Sinner 
10 Danæviia // Anna Von Hausswolff // Stardust

Maybe I am completely wrong about Charlotte Cardin and I wasn't there to see the reaction last night, but it just shouts winner to me x 'Mum Does The Washing
' is iconic and will obviously suck up the big points but I think it’s potentially too divisive to truly crossover into a win?

Semi Final Two 01 // Danæviia // Anna Von Hausswolff // Stardust 02 // Lentyll // Blood Cultures // Emptylands 03 // FARC // sim0ne // freaky 04 // Ojnoj // Charlotte Cardin // The Way We Touch 05 // Zephyra Continuum // Dino And Terry // Fall Apart (feat. Kali Mija) 06 // East Rukahavian // lùisa // Stay The Night 07 // Jadakissnia // edeprss & Brinettte // BENGRAMO (feat. Tedzkril) 08 // Jupiterdonia // Morcheeba // Molten 09 // Mothertopia // horsegiirL // only the best 10 // Greenfroze // Hayato Sumino // frostline 11 // Dalisska // NoGood Boyo // Just A G.O.A.T 12 // Neliönoir // frutiger dillon // big chemistry ♡ 13 // Dobago // Sasha & Because Of Art // Fused 14 // Hushkanukia // MANSA // Midnight On My Mind 15 // Séyetana // The Warning // Kerosene 16 // The Spodic Empire // HALLOWS // Catalyst 17 // Land of DW // David Löhlein & VELA // Traum 18 // Sovarasma // Gina Dirawi // NOT ALL LOVE IS DEATH 19 // Aeroche // KREZUS & Surreal_dvd // Skins 20 // Summericia // Izzy Camina & Angrybaby // Seven Seas 21 // A-Konohagakure // Yugo Kanno // Dance With STEEL BALL RUN 22 // Fljótavík // Joshua Idehen // Mum Does The Washing 23 // Abeltesfayeton // Nujabes // Lady Brown (feat. Cise Starr) 24 // Trifoski // Crippling Alcoholism // LADIES' NIGHT (feat. Luxury Skin) 25 // Elëdan // Weval & KILIMANJARO // OPEN UP THAT DOOR 26 // New Lexico // Channel Tres // Medicine 27 // Bøtanikkä // Yseult // FREAK 28 // République d'Áskorza // Ditonellapiaga // Che Fastidio! 29 // Flynnonda // Tsatsamis // Recreational Some of the dance will obviously eat into each other, it's just hard to say which. I expect to be wrong about Greenfroze but I don't know who to swap them with. Séyetana, Greenfroze, and Trifoski in the same semi together could easily pool their votes into a wildcard that people will expect to DNQ but will ultimately make it with some big points (Dalisska?) I think SF2 has more (5) potential contenders and don't predict anything (outside of Hendinia) from SF1 to beat most of them x Contenders // 
 Ojnoj // Charlotte Cardin // The Way We Touch Fljótavík // Joshua Idehen // Mum Does The Washing
 République d'Áskorza // Ditonellapiaga // Che Fastidio! Final // 
 Ojnoj vs Fljótavík

I'm just bitter, not because of Jane, but by the severe lack of cvnt without Discord this week I miss the mother cam

Mini challenge, challenge, and episode were all a boot and everyone was awful to some degree Nini could have removed her head and revealed she was actually Alyssa Edwards this entire time and I would still be bored and bothered by the prospect of her lasting another week x

🖤

I'll love it for all of you x he says listening to Fcukers on repeat

Our leaders also request a name change to Brörnoir immediately x

I hear Easy Yehesi Beautiful (Covergirl) is absolutely lovely this time of year

This might be my favourite new album of the week (surprise surprise) Entire thing absolutely slaps Me and a qt at primavera getting our lives to their set

Buy me a drink before you drag me like this

When is the SF2 listenthrough? 🖤

Yes! I flew Nord airlines and booked a room at the VPN Auckland resort

Production and tracklist is peak sequencing and everything flows. Just realising now how much this feels like a joyous, colourful pop successor to ‘Do It Again’ rather than a simple return ‘Body Talk’ ‘Into the Sun’ is such euphoric pop bliss it’s going to make me cry into my poke bowl

Greetings from New Zealand Step on my neck mother for ever doubting you

you're welcome x

I do see Ennea making it through as well tbh. It's a good mix of pop and alt countries so really a lot of things could happen x
