Just missing votes from Aesthetica and Pagasa, I've added up all the rest of the votes, but as previously mentioned, will allow any more votes sent to me until 12pm UK time at a deduction.

I’ll realistically accept late votes, but will issue a 15% deduction.

Let the travesties begin x

Okay, all counted up! The following nations still have time to vote~ SEMI 1 New Lexico Botanikka Republique d'Askorza SEMI 2 New Lexico Hinterlandia Eledan Aesthetica Trifoski Pagasa

I don’t even watch many of the international series but Envy Peru going out already feels sad, especially thinking of some who have progressed. But it is understandable not to vote for people in series they haven’t watched.

Okay, you ate that x

HI LOVES, Had my shifts swapped so I’m working Tuesday night instead of Wednesday, so seeing as I can’t host results tomorrow, deadline is extended to 23:59pm tomorrow xx

What has Judas got to do with anything? :lol:

I think she’s done too much damage to just “go back to the drawing board”, everything will just look desperate from here on out. This really does feel like the final nail in a career killer, because this era already had a feel of “it’s the last throw of the dice to try and make a big comeback”.

This is great, for sure, about time someone from Little Mix actually felt like they were trying something not safe. And it’s paid off for sure. I’ve had about 4 listens of it now and I’m still not HOOKED, the messiness of it makes it hard to fully connect to but when it does click, I know it’s going to majorly click. My only critique is that I wish it went OFF at the end instead of going back into the ballad territory, leaves me with blue balls. Video is superb though, she’s a starrrrr.

That result feels so unfair looking at how little it needed for some others to make it :(

...in Hendinia 👀

Katy Forum continuing to DEFY with another 2nd place *.* With the same amount of posts as she'll receive in sales this week too *.*

Welcome to Croztburg, Hendinia. For the sixth time in Buzzjack Song Contest history, we are thrilled to 166th edition of this illustrious contest. We've made it past the confirmation stage with only 4 casualties, but with 58 of you throwing your hat in the ring, it's time to get the semi finals kicking.

I haven't had time today, but I've drawn the semis and I'll put the links and everything together so it's up before MIDDAY. And you'll still have 7 nights to vote, so nothing is really lost x

All vetoes passed! Won’t be at a laptop until midnight-ish but will try my best to get them up before I go to sleep!

Joops, my love, I can’t help but think you’re reading a bit too much into this woman’s lyrical content. This is Katy Perry, not Kate Bush, she has songs such as “I wanna see your peacock, cock” and entire songs built around the metaphor of being a tiger. It’s literally just “women are amazing, you’re welcome” in the most basic and uncreative form, nothing more, nothing less :lol:

Dagny - Hate Being Alone 10 - artist came 33rd in BJSC 79 & 7th in BJSC 96 3+7 - peaked at #53 on Norwegian Spotify (not currently charting) - appeared in 5 personal charts, 1 of which is a BJSC participant (AH Gold) - album track(?), low level blog coverage for parent album - *MOD DISCRETION* Although the veto points don’t add up, we deem her to be too big of an artist for BJSC at this point in her career*

Three vetoes coming THROUGH ~ SOFI TUKKER - Spiral 15 - artist came 20th in BJSC 81, 16th in BJSC 94 & 1st in BJSC 115 3+12 - appeared in 4 personal charts, 1 of which is a current BJSC participant (AH Gold) - was in Dan's Dance Track of the Week poll (coming 4th with 1 vote) - mid level blog coverage Magdalena Bay - Death & Romance 24 - artist came 21st in BJSC 115, 32nd in BJSC 126, 33rd in BJSC 130, 3rd in BJSC 136 & 23rd in BJSC 155 5+12 - appeared in 3 personal charts, 1 of which is a BJSC participant (Doctor Blind) - moderate blog coverage (Pitchfork, StereoGum, Dork etc.) 7 TSHA and Rose Gray - Girls 20 - TSHA came 26th in BJSC 128 3 - Rose Gray came 13th in BJSC 133, 2nd in BJSC 145 & 1st in BJSC 147 5+12 - appeared in 8 personal charts, 6 of which are BJSC participants (Ansel, danG, Doctor Blind, Jade, jimwatts, Kath) - was in Dan's Dance Track of the Week poll (coming 1st with 5 votes); is also currently in Doctor Blind's Electronic Track of the Month poll - low to mid level blog coverage I think there's a fair chance one more veto is on the way, but still in discussion ~

Confirmations are closed! Vetoes will be issued soon, I assume, research has been done, just waiting on some decisions to be made. 56 confirmed ~ FSR Rontvia Cheiron Kathaldazia Sovarasma Conoria Altyr Muunilinst Greenfroze Danæviia Bronzil POPHub Lookylion Cor Lupus Ajanaeda Mothertopia Land of DW Aeroche Kluminican Republic New Lexico Taahino Jadakissnia Jupiterdonia Abeltesfayeton Sandénia Pagasa Terra Avium Aesthetica Herbilore Cadelicia Neliönoir Pestolia Zanmatony Thelonia Elëdan Bøtanikkä Summericia Ingermanlandia Dobago East Rukahavian Cumulonimbia Ben's Sanctuary Yobnedorica Singerpurear Harmonica Hushkanukia Séyetana Scotland 2 Persephonia Niceland République d'Áskorza Hendinia Skall Aelandor Fljótavík Trifoski Lotunia Hinterlandia

Expected to receive ~2.9mil debut which really isn’t bad given the lack of playlisting! Not amazing either but could’ve definitely seen it being a lot worse. Heard it in the club I work at tonight and sounded SO good (with Stupid Love following it ofc ofc x)

So upsetting to see nothing has changed and she’s still the media’s punching bag. Obviously she hasn’t helped herself in one element here but critics are always so quick to jump on her like it’s fun.

I find some of the reactions to this so bandwagon obvious. I very much accept the idea that people think it’s generic/sounds like AI/a re-tread of her past/average but I find it hard to believe any fan of pop thinks this is actively “omg the worst song ever created” unless they want in to it determined to think that because of the Dr Luke association.

Well, I think this has all gone really well, hasn’t it? :D
