Seceru...

Kate Bush please!

Yeah... Mackenzy's track was cool but was gonna struggle.

Please not Damien leaving.

Unfortunate for the Vengaboys. Definitely was expecting it NGL.

Hooray for second UP!

A bit disappointing to know that there are only three entrants and not a single male. x

YouTube playlist I have made the playlist, for those wanted one (myself included, I haven't gotten around to play every song yet!).

Being featured in the highest average points stat again. 🥹

Ah, shoot. I missed the poll. I would probably pick 'Divine Intervention'* of the two. 'Don't Mind' has kinda not aged well. 🤣 Edit: 'The Way'. Must be too sleepy to have typed that. Oop

Good luck with the hosting! I have an entry I'm looking forward to send for 189.

I'm always fond of 'In This City', so that. Such a memorable chorus! Also, I'm sure the song was a hit in 2008.

I went for White Chorus. Weird Genius is a close second.

188 August/September 2026 The Black And White Edition Artist: Angine de Poitrine Song: Sherpa Personal note: Truth is I was coming up with some random black and white art. Might as well put it out here.

Dalisska is too low though. That sounded like a smash. What happened. Sorry to see Zephyra almost at 100. Regretfully was not able to have them in my votes (it was close on both occasions) considering I chose the song in the poll.

How apt! Congrats to ⬛️! Happy to see a non-English language win this year. 14th is impressive for the went viral earlier this year polka dots duo (and wow top 10 in the semi again). Guitar-based records truly struggle to go top 10 (my 18-pointer is above mine!). Similarly, all of my past three entries feature layered guitars. I would like my next entry to be quite distant from that but maybe I'll be a bit formulaic and send another song with guitars. 🫣

End of Aesthetica summer.

100+ points! Thank you! (Does the triangle thing)

Glad to get Lotunia off zero!

Will I get my third 6th place in a row...? (That would be evil)

Poor Bladee. Unfortunately didn't stand a chance.

I am not gonna be happy to see anyone from the groups leaving...
