Sweden was my second choice for them, but I couldn't fit LUNA anywhere else! Genuinely would have expected UK or Ireland to send the Tom Grennan song... Not Germany!

Well, I'm actually mostly in this situation... So I thought I'd guess who sent what! Some I didn't have a clue, some were glaringly obvious - Ukraine, UK, Italy, and France in particular, though Liar is Cyprus all over too!). Vaguely knowing Spanish and Portuguese (very similar languages) helped me place them too. Some others are correct, but most are wrong! Albania: Raiven - Veronika Australia: Mustii - Before the Party's Over Austria: Aiko - Pedestal Azerbaijan: Fahree feat. Ílkin Dovletov - Özünlə Apar Belgium: Electric Fields - One Milkali (One Blood) Croatia: Natalia Barbu - In the Middle Cyprus: Silia Kapsis - Liar Czechia: Windows95Man - No Rules! Denmark: SABA - SAND Estonia: Teya Dora - Ramonda Finland: Baby Lasagna - Rim Tim Tagi Dim France: Slimane - Mon amour Georgia: Ladaniva - Jako Germany: Marcus & Martinus - Unforgettable Greece: Marina Satti - ZARI Iceland: Hera Björk - Scared of Heights Ireland: ISAAK - Always on the run Israel: Eden Golan - Hurricane Italy: Angelina Mango - La noia Latvia: Bambie Thug - Doomsday Blue Lithuania: Nutsa - Firefighter Luxembourg: TALI - Fighter (could feasibly be Belgium or Switzerland, but i think they're more likely to be other songs, and no idea what the Luxembourg style will be - the other francophone song is solely in Frence, so that's got to be France!) Malta: Sarah Bonnici - Loop Moldova: Silvester Belt - Luktelk Netherlands: Nemo - The Code Norway: Gåte - Ulveham Poland: Besa - TiTAN Portugal: iolanda - Grito San Marino: Megara - 11:11 Slovenia: 5MIINUST & Puuluup - (nendest) narkootikumidest ei tea me (küll) midagi Spain: Nebulossa - ZORRA Sweden: LUNA - The Tower Switzerland: Dons - Hollow United Kingdom: Olly Alexander - Dizzy Ukraine: alyona alyona & Jerry Heil - Teresa & Maria

Plane, Sapphira, Q (who I'm apparently the only one that likes, off-stage strops aside!), Dawn and Amanda. Plane, Sapphira, Q, Dawn, Plasma, Xunami, Megami and Amanda. Nymphia (just find her irritatingly one-note... probably emphasised by not getting what everyone else sees in her 🙈) and Mhiya. 8 Dawn About the same!

Only just voted. Went for Plane. Genuinely surprised Nymphia made it this far... She's so one note, I just don't get it. Lol I've had a clear Top 3 for about 6 weeks now, and they were all in the Top 4. Honestly don't get the Q shade, the only thing I don't like it how upset she gets whenever she comes second. 😂

I'm finding it kinda amusing seeing people seemingly applauding Warner for taking advantage of Kylie's fanbase by making the physical single only available if they also buy a copy of Sia's album, but there we go... I won't be buying the single as I have no interest in buying the Sia album. I think it's unlikely they'd even bother with a physical release if it wasn't for Kylie's feature!

Didn't Midnights have about 50,000 vinyl variants though? 😂

So... Husband got me (and him) tickets for Royal Albert Hall, very excited! I was actually planning to hold off for a tour announcement (as I don't really have the money ATM), so it was a very pleasant surprise 😍 Good luck to anyone trying tomorrow!

It's SO GOOD 😍😍😍 3/3. 100% hit rate. BRING. ON. THE. ALBUM.

Any news on whether this will get a physical release? I hope so (mainly because it feels weird not having physicals for all the singles!)

Just noticing this thread! I don't post Feeder threads anymore due to a fear of a lack of response (terrible pun intended)... I'm really enjoying the album actually! Noticed a chequerboard vinyl that I missed out on (which was limited to 350 and has sold out, though some resellers have it for £70 on eBay). Overwise, I'm my usual crazy self keeping up the collection with all the formats available! I have a huge collection that needs to be maintained lol (I did resist the test pressing at £100 which was available when I pre-ordered though! Normally it being sold out makes the decision on purchasing those for me 😂) Really liking ELF, Playing with Fire, Vultures, Sahara, Hey You (has grown on me, it's a decent pop song...), The Knock (which I think is still my fave), Sleeping Dogs Lie, Lost in the Wilderness and Memory Loss! Soldiers of Love is still rubbish, no bagpipes can hide that. 😂 Saw them at Cambridge, was glad to hear a couple of rarities (and lucky to be on an early date of the tour, as one of them was removed from the set after a few shows... Replaced with Come Back Around, which I've seen live at least 8 times 😂) Generic indie is kinda their brand. I didn't expect Hey You, but overall it's pretty much given me what I expected so no complaints!

I'd love a Billie Piper reunion! It's a shame she's the only person in the gay world that's not up for it!

This. And from that snippet, the song... Doesn't sound like it's for me.

Yeah, this was the case for the whole series. And it featured in most episodes too! I'm pretty sure it's there to prevent the humiliation of ending with next to no points 😂

Tia Kofi's album was released Friday 29th. It's SO GOOD (most of the songs were out already tbf). Outside In remains fantastic!

Bionic was my fave for (what I'm assuming are the) other reasons. 🙊

I've not heard of The K's, so can't comment on them... I would say there's a fair bit of hype around Libertines this time around, so #1 is definitely in the bag for them. Feeder's 2019 did 7.5k, so yeah, probably a certainly to be behind Vampire Weekend! #5 would be a great result if Feeder can make it then!

Possibly. Though I wouldn't put Feeder fans past that either (as I'm one of them, they're the only artist I do it for lol)

This feels very diet-Hallucinate from that clip... I have nothing against a FN sounding song or two, if they sound like they're at home in this album too, but they need to be of FN quality. An evolving sound doesn't need to be a full 180, afterall (it can be taking what you have, and enhancing/adapting it). Not loving the clip, but Training Season didn't smash me to the ground until I heard it in full either (and that's been on almost repeat since release 😂). We'll see!

Time for my bi-annual-ish happy to see Feeder pop up post! For a physical era band (that initially fared pretty badly on downloads), they usually do pretty well on downloads! Expect a Top 5 download album and hoping for a Top 5 combined album again - I thought the week looked busy, but they could get second or third highest new entry, I expected Black Keys and especially Vampire Weekend to be higher here!

Severence and Lessons in Chemistry were both amazing! Definitely would recommend

I can't at this (not only being the PERFECT Top 4), but also the correct order of elimination immediately prior to the final 4. 😍 Scarlet was strong throughout the season, but didn't have any real standout moments like the Top 4 have. Choriza was best of the rest, but her style of drag doesn't translate so well on a competition setting! I'd be happy with any of them winning: LGD and Marina have the second language barrier to contend with, which was particularly impressive. Whilst Marina was definitely up there, I do feel she's the most decorated queen because she's the best lipsyncer/dancer by FAR. Based on the challenges, I'd probably place her level with Hannah and Tia (with LGD marginally lower following a couple of bombs that the others didn't really have!) Marina should win, baring in mind it's a lipsync final... But who knows what production say. 😂

Not sure on this as a Eurovision hit... But I'm never the best judge in that respect. I like it though! Preferred 'I Wrote A Song' on first listen. But can see this being a euphoric moment, and I'm sure Olly will perform the shit out of it!

Debate time! Very much disagree with this statement! By this argument, a long-running #2 hit (that's actually far more remembered over the multitude of non-number 1's that got in the way of it) with no follow up hit wouldn't meet the criteria. I would say people generally assume that the OHW was a #1, but that's because they don't follow the charts... Also, if a song suddenly surfaces (for whatever reason [featured in a film/tiktok/whatever]), it doesn't really matter that it's an oldie, just that people are discovering it and it's now charting! I mentioned Train because they had a big hit and had to wait a long time for their next big hit! (They did have a minor Top 75 hit following DOJ, but at the time, you wouldn't generally consider that a hit single!)

Train took 9 years to follow up Drops From Jupiter with a second Top 40 hit! (Then followed with another unlikely hit, 2 years later... And then another 5 years later!)

Every listen is getting better for me. And it's making me love Houdini more... Genuinely listening to the extended mix more because I don't want it to end. On repeat like nothing I've listened to in years. 11/10. Dua, I am SOLD. 😍😍
