I don’t think an alt version would rise to the heights of Calum’s original idea or amusing flourishes that he includes… but if Calum would prefer more alternative acts not to appear here and therefore it isn’t treading on his toes; then it does feel like a spin off version could work as an idea worth discussion in future

I suspect I'd put that one a bit higher up, possibly top 5. It is quite of its time but I have a real soft spot for (nearly) all of the singles from the Dangerous album as I loved it as a kid.

The females are going to have to play all their cards quite early just to stay in... leaving the path clear for Damien Rice, Depeche Mode and the Vengaboys to romp to the final!

Not a common phrase on Buzzjack but WE LOVE THE BUSH <3

There was already about 4 acts I thought could be Addy and then the Vengaboys appear

OMG two more I love ARGH!

I've been a bit meh at the female choices in previous years (in so much as there have been some good ones but also lots that just aren't for me) but so far this year I do actually like them all

Oh Depeche Mode have a handful of some of my favourite songs of all time, hope their mentor plays it well

M83!!! <3 Dido as well to be fair <3

Looking forward to seeing what Dead or Alive send!! You Spin Me Round (Like a Record) You Spin Me Round (Like a Record) [PWL Extended Mix] You Spin Me Round (Like a Record) [Mash Up with Dannii Minogue] You Spin Me Round (Like a Record) ['99 Version]

OOOFT Jessie Ware as well <3

I absolutely love Damien Rice <3

Tove Lo! Wouldn't be surprised to see her in the final tbh

Oh Bananarama are an interesting choice, they've got a lot of singles out there to choose from

Got all my fingers and toes crossed for a Bob the Builder appearance this season 🤞

Another big fan of Love and Understanding by Cher, it was the first song of hers I ever bought... which means that I did not buy the Shoop Shoop Song and have always found it a bit naff. I'd probably have it just outside of the top 10 maybe. I do like the Chesney track though, that's one that is also kinda naff but actually does have quite a strong melody and it's very much a fun listen

I’m quite chuffed to make it through this month. i do prefer the original to my entry but it’s prompted me listen to Juno Reactor quite a bit this past week and I’ve enjoyed being reacquainted

I liked the Mulgracia entry too, think I pointed it quite highly so sad for JSG there

I'm mainly curious to know just how many of the slots have already gone and how quickly they all went

I hope I was just about quick enough to get one of my first two choices... but I know that I'm not as quick a typist as many of you will be!

How will the ordering work when selecting? Say someone puts a group down as their second choice but confirms 30 seconds before someone else who puts the same group down as their first choice, who would have the highest ranking to claim them? Time submitted regardless of 1st, 2nd or 3rd choice, or whoever puts them highest?

Trying to think of a male act for this is kinda tough, turns out very few I listen to are European

It’s alright, was only kidding! It helped anyway as I’d not noticed the thread at all before the tagging began ☺️

Have read the thread properly now and at Wardy trying to exclude me. I have so much cry 😭😭😭😭😭
