Yes, you qualified! (The results are hidden behind spoiler tags, you have to click on the 😮 x)

2 semi 1 essentials there ❤️ (I think The Drums' song has more pop appeal than Jim seems to be making out x)

Ennea and Elëdan <3

Make sure all of my bribe cheques go through pls x

I saw these leaked lyrics from the new Tater Tot song: "Ma ma pa pa pa perfect housewife"

Was hoping 'Where Is Gone?' might sneak in from its first partial day but still a decent start on Apple Music at least and good to see their other songs rising on Spotify (plus 'Roman Holiday' finally debuting, guessing it's not been far out for a little while considering its entry in the official top 100 the other week, still no idea why it's seemingly on SCR while 'I Love You' isn't but hey ho). It is a gorgeous song (I was probably always stanning it no matter what based on the artist names alone lbr) but I'm not sure it sounds like as big a hit as 'Marianne', hopefully it can chart decently though especially with their album being out for its first full week ofc, think I saw it had a vinyl release coming too but not sure when it's coming out. If it can be a new chart peak for ROSALÍA that's good enough for me!

I'm pretty sure Calum is fine, he was hounding me on Discord to submit something a mere couple of hours ago x (If I'm still in that is 😮) That was a while before you joined! Were you lurking here for years? x

Real ones remember the filter was originally 'iamspamamispamwhoamispam' and it was changed to 'iamspamspamami' after a failed attempt to remove the filter x (edit: I am apparently not a real one because it wasn't exactly that but something else slightly longer ddd) ((edit 2: it didn't have the last 'i', that was it xo))

He's had nearly 28 years to do that and hasn't managed it yet so I wouldn't hold my breath xo

Chappell does make a lot of sense for a remix for this song - not one of my absolute favourites from the album but a banger nonetheless and if this makes it a big hit then I'm not complaining x (though I will continue to sit and wait for 'maggots for brains' to assert itself as the true sleeper smash of the era)

So what you're saying is it's not going to #1?

My prediction was pretty close! I might be out when these start but will try and follow on my phone at least. I hope the fact my song sounded so out of place in this semi might have worked in its favour but we'll see, otherwise lol at the universe conspiring to return me to my seemingly natural state of DNQing this year x

What trickery

Taylor ratf***ing across multiple weeks would tend to do that yes xx

Ok so that makes it ok then!

Voted at 23:59 lolol There were a couple of songs among my top half of the semi that grew on me on second listen but also a couple that I liked a bit less so balanced out to still feeling about the same about it. x

The implication that the lyrics of 'My Neck, My Back' aren't Pulitzer Prize worthy art x (I tend to not really pay attention to lyrics at all most of the time oop, there is the occasional song that I really enjoy for great lyrics or think is ruined by especially dreadful lyrics, but about 98% of the time the lyrics kinda wash over me and I judge more on the sound and ~vibes~)

67 / 420

Mind the solo men top 3 also contains a song that unironically rhymes 'desire' with 'higher' x

I kinda stopped paying attention to the rankings after the start so yas at MARINA recovering from some early low placings to end up rightfully winning the round x (and nice for Fontaines getting a much more comfortable result this time yay)

omg no at the ghost car video in the teaser though literal childhood trauma

Popsephonia to be left as a mangled corpse on the doorstep of the dark room. Percemetery coming back with some industrial noise rock powah x (probably)

Well I guess Roosevelt did ok for an artist who has never charted x Have found a lot of his songs to have quite a similar vibe but not in a bad way.
