I did know that it was very hyped up, and it is an advantage being the one to open the confirmation thread. But this has always been the case and the host always has and always will pretty much have first pick should they so desire. Gotta have some perks to the job :P

mp3 link added to the first post.

You mean absolutely NOTHING that came through semi-final 2 appeals to you? :o

Quintessa gave it 2 and Jester gave it 1, but it was given a 33% deduction.

Apologies for them being smaller than I thought they would be...

Hey stats fans! Here are the voting breakdowns for the losing songs. http://i427.photobucket.com/albums/pp357/Peter30/semi-final1spreadsheet.jpg http://i427.photobucket.com/albums/pp357/Peter30/semi-final2spreadsheet.jpg

http://i164.photobucket.com/albums/u11/gooddelta/bjscxxxvherzebania.jpg Good afternoon everybody and welcome to the final stage of the 35th Buzzjack Song Contest. After the biggest semi-finals in a long time, we're down to 28 again and one of these songs will be crowned the winner! The list of songs, as well as a link for you to listen to them, is below and voting is just as it was in the semi-finals. Send me a PM with your top ten favourites, awarding them 12,10,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1 points. Failure to vote will result in a 33% deduction - three countries were very lucky this month to qualify in spite of their deductions, but you can kiss goodbye to winning if you abstain this time! As usual, EVERYONE must vote, even the countries who went out at the semi-final stage. Votes must be in my inbox by 11.59pm on Saturday 2nd July, and the results will be the following evening.

Guys I'm really sorry, but the final thread is going to have to wait until tomorrow afternoon or very late tonight. Real life has got in the way I'm afraid! :( Hopefully you can wait until then!

The final qualifier from semi-final one is.... ALLECIAN!!!! msGqJNdjBf0 And from semi-final two it's... KOPECKA!!!! http://trashlexis.tumblr.com/post/6780678931 That's all 28 qualifiers folks! I'm off for dinner but I'll be back later to recap, to post the positions of the non-qualifiers and to open the final thread!

In fact let's bring it right down to head-to-heads shall we! Going out of the competition is.... Unovia Which means that it's ALLECIAN vs. KYLIENIPS for the final place from the first semi. And going out of semi-final 2 is... Isconia So it's JRK-OFF vs. KOPECKA

Sorry folks, I've gone round that a bit of a roundabout way! Just to clarify where we're at, we've got 3 countries left from semi-final 1: Allecian Kylienips Unovia And 3 countries from semi-final 2: Isconia JRK-Off Kopecka Only ONE place from each semi remains!!

Anyways without further ado, the half of the Espedan voting bloc to emerge victorious is.... ELEDAN xX5WNiWqh8k Which means unfortunately Espen is out. And going through from semi-final two, it's another country managing to overcome their point deduction! It's... LETLAND rWZr2F0qohA

Sorry Tirren...these countries are still in from semi-final 1: Allecian Eledan Espen Kylienips Unovia and from semi-final 2: Isconia JRK-Off Kopecka Letland

Let's zoom in on semi-final one for a moment...I can now announce that only ONE of Eledan and Espen has made it through...which one will it be??!! Also, at this point we'll say a sad farewell to Caerfyrddia from semi-final 2 :(

Right! 6 countries from each semi-final left... The next qualifier from semi-final 1 is... NUMAYANIA http://soundcloud.com/tomkayw/bjscxxxvnyn2 And from semi-final 2... DALISSKA _QHbrUst9NI

Right...from semi-final 1...qualifier 11 is most definitely.... FYR VOJVODINA-ON-THE-WOLD http://soundcloud.com/johnkelsomason/florrie-i-took-a-little And from semi-final 2, the next qualifier without a shadow of a doubt is... ZECHONIA IjETUluDoNc

Right let's narrow the field a bit to lessen the confusion! :lol: At this stage we'll say goodbye to... Juranabaijan Tinnmark Yuxhaaq and Greenfroze Frahliso N-Lazone

OK guys, congrats to Klumzee and all that, and he IS through (I'd like to think so anyway, after being announced twice!) But what I meant to say was that UNOSHAKE has qualified from semi-final 2! m6clTZXmzMA

Oh bollocks :lol: Right OK folks don't panic, I've just been thinking I can do this without keeping notes!!

The 10th qualifiers from each semi-final are.... From semi-final 1... BIGNIA-ZARAGOVINA ZWZ4OdEKMK8 And from semi-final 2... KLUMINICAN REPUBLIC d7KUP2oI9V8

OK problem solved! 6 places left!! 12 songs left in contention in each semi. 6 in - 6 out. Allecian Bignia-Zaragovina Eledan Espen FYR Vojvodina-on-the-wold Juranabaijan Kylienips Numayania Quotosibb Tinnmark Unovia Yuxhaaq Batidas Caerfyrddia Dalisska Frahliso Greenfroze Isconia JRK-Off Kopecka Letland N-Lazone UnoShake Zechonia The next qualifier from semi-final 1 is.... QUOTOSIBB lvBLLVkdHDI And from semi-final 2... BATIDAS u5C-YHSy3Fw

Sorry folks...minor delay...I think I've made a mistake but I'm not sure where. Never fear, the results that I've already announced aren't affected.

The next qualifier from semi-final 1 is.... FARAHTYN http://soundcloud.com/sweden-songs/erika-selin-im-a-dreamer And from semi-final 2...at least act surprised...it's.... AQUAFINA HgeODQbcTjo

Next up, two countries that aren't so new, but good to see them going through! From semi-final 1... TORCHWOOD h3_VnLb5Wkw And from semi 2... UTOPIA u8_aQjT5SKI
