Milica dark horsing for real x

What is a Sara Jo?

...that's not their new song, it was a low top 40 hit in 2013.

But how can HRVY send his entire discography at once?

If only HRVY was relevant enough for me to understand any of these jokes.

How can other people possibly have different opinions from me? Preposterous

Genuinely feel like this is just leading to him ending up having to cancel the tour anyway so it will have all been for nothing, really terrible look for him. (and yes this really is not the time for flippant contrarian takes / trying to just make this another argument about BuzzJack not liking Ed Sheeran - I say this as someone who is usually there to defend him)

I can believe it x The person who sent Capaldi has definitely put their strongest foot forward first! (also nice that Calvin actually is kicking off with a solo vocal song x)

Voting is open to non-participants btw!

Honestly 'Hello' is one of my least favourite of the big Adele hits so I don't think it's a bad play x

I'm sure he can get Temper City to fill in for the support acts who have dropped out. x

2 BJSC top 2 hits in this round

Absolutely not, this is far too high effort x Is me sending Zara to this edition really pushing it that much? (It could be true for all the rest of you know!!1)

I wasn't suggesting it still being hosted by you / in the pop forum xx

I do think it would be good to do a round of this that is properly open to all genres (moreso than it is now where one or two people per season sneak an artist that isn't really pop through anyway x). Am sure it'd still be mostly pop artists anyway but there'd be plenty of artists I'd be interested in using who would definitely not be pop at all. (I guess that was already a thing with that AF Idol spinoff)

All this discussion of which of the ladies will win ignoring the elephant in the room of the forthcoming Bladee landslidee x

Soaking up all the hype before I proceed to send no hopers for another 5 years straight again

Ronnie Radke taking control of BuzzJack to delete critical posts as well

>posting a Falling In Reverse song in big 2026

Underworld et al.'s 'And I Will Kiss' won a BJSC spinoff and that was 17 minutes long! (There is a shorter version of 'Share My Heat' but I hardly think the length will put off many of the people who'd be voting for a song of this ilk anyway)

I also thought The Joy Formidable sounded like an obvious winner (whereas the Liquido song is one of the least interesting songs here for me oops! I'm sure there must be something to it for it to be so popular but it wasn't doing a lot for me)

I'm going to assume neither of you are familiar with Bladee x (I guess some of his music could be considered hyperpop adjacent but he's definitely primarily a hip-hop artist). We don't mind a bit of diversity anyway these acts are still at least closer to the poppier end of their respective genres, it's not like we have people sending black metal bands or Aphex Twin x (although now I've said that... Aphex Twin in season 4 when)

There can never be enough hoe scaring!!

Bladee being a certified popstar (ngl I half considered putting Yung Lean as my male pick, close enough lol) The women and groups categories both seem very stacked (really hard to call anyone being a first round exit for the latter, the women at least have the one that stands out as a likely sacrificial lamb just for being very obscure compared to the rest, though of course hoping we will all be giving everyone a chance xx). The men not so much but still some good choices there (we stan the old man again). x Although... I think we are missing a group? I see 12 each of men and women but only 11 groups. You posted everyone in pairs except Dido so maybe there was meant to be another act in that post? how many times will I make the same obscure in-joke? x unironically though I actually also didn't know iamamiwhoami was a group, I guess it now makes more sense why Jonna also released music under the name ionnalee, I thought that was just a rebrand x

My votes are going to be a little fashionably late but they will be coming tonight x (I was napping x)
