Congrats Lotunia! Thank you very much Jade, what an exciting results show!

I can just feel Jade's stress + excitement in those 1 am words haha It has for me too! In a pretty good way I'd say, the pace has been enjoyable!

Jade you're so observant with the commentary! Love seeing Summericia currently doing so well with that banger and Sergeistan with their debut entry! And ofc my 18, Skall, in the top 10 as well so yay.

Omg why is everyone sick :( (Everyone = 2 ppl but ok)

What a back catalogue! I hope my 18 can do somewhat well. I like it really a lot very much. Sometimes I find myself doing interpretive dance to it in the iamspamspamami

FOOKING FOOK

'Just Because' was a nice surprise, it feels a little too short but I like the uplifting feel both lyrically and sonically and the message of the song feels important. "Just because everybody does it doesn't mean we need to" / "You don't need to see it all"

Voted :magic:

Pretty sure there's been 5-day voting periods before, not sure about 4. *cue it not being the case and I'm just misremembering*

Wow Bré, I knew you liked my entry but no way was I expecting a 12 :mellow: Thank you! Shocked at Jupiterdonia more than my own song... Lost some 'mid-points' all in a row, all interesting entries: 12 – Q 10 – Q 8 – Q 7 – Q 6 – Quintessa: PONGO - Kassussa 5 – Aelandor: Masego - Navajo 4 – Cadelicia: AMA - Crystal 3 – Q 2 – Q 1 – Q

Utopia 💔 That would've most likely received big points from me... There was just something so endearing about it.

Voted! (not on the last day after all)

I'm doing my re-listen right now and when your song was on I predicted it to qualify in my head. B-)

I... think I'll be leaving it to the last day for once :nocheer: It's pretty rare for me but sorry about that, just need a re-listen of some songs to rank them as I know them all from plug already but yano.

Yeah I do have a habit of repeat listening to my song contest entries til they're almost completely worn out lmao (I guess they're all just that good -_-). This was one of my more impulsive entries as I think I actually found it the same day I confirmed it, which is a bit embarrassing ha. But I just found it interesting and wanted to share. Thank you, I think it could definitely go either way, depending on how the audience feels about catchy remakes of Afghan folk songs presently! I liked your entry too on plug btw, this reminds I still need to do a re-listen and vote :kink: That deadline is creeping up!

I might as well echo the Jupiterdonia hype and also add Utopia and Rolloland! 🧡 Could mention several others of course but hopefully you semi 1 folks can put those through, I'd imagine Jupiterdonia is the most likely to qualify out of the three, even in that semi.

My sweetheart of a mother has given me her laptop (that I bought her for Christmas 2016) that she mostly didn't use (still feel kinda bad taking it tho), still part of the Lenovo gang but it's an Ideapad 110 this time. Seems to be working pretty well, I'm just glad to not have a distorted pink screen and a freezer anymore! This one also has a built-in CD / DVD drive which my own Lenovo didn't.

That sounds cool but I could just try to improve this one :P (finally someone else posted in here lolz)

This thread is lowkey a mess tbh, would love to have a fully organized one with all my points given and received etc, not to mention the OP randomly stopped having links to all my entries a while ago :') Also missing some spin-off entries etc. Oh well. Laziness is a bitch. Vote for me.

BJSC 118 Niyaz - Sabza Ba Naz (The Triumph of Love) rafighan ghadre yek digar bedanid ajal sang ast o adam mesle shishe fE3_GNaekzM I haven't been able to get this out of my head for the past few days, it's like a curse :D It's fun tho, innit? Love the amalgamation of the instruments and the catchy melody.

Not sure if I've ever heard the term 'synth-punk' before actually but I'm here for it!

lol Yeah I've stumbled upon the act before but idk if I know this song! I watched a short KEXP live gig of theirs a while ago, they were certainly interesting :D Cue me not liking this one at all :magic: Glad to see Moses Sumney here, pretty sure I've played that on plug too!

For Taahino, I'd say something like... Often embracing anthemic choruses and the spectrum of rock, including pop punk and the like. Also the occasional Latvian bop about multivitamins in spin-offs 😅 (I find this intriguing bc I have tried to describe Deandria's sound and I still think I don't really have one LOL. It's hard to see it from the outside)

Send Tricky, he's cool xo (lool I've lowkey considered it but then he was sent and did terribly... although you never know)
