Brer

Thanks Cow, bringing me up to triple figures there (ty Noche for the mealworm as well!) edit: and thanks !!! as well <3 I think Aesthetica are now in the lead then? So even if Rd'Á do still snatch it back at the end they won't have been in the lead in literally every scoreboard after all.

Ok I am manifesting a f5ve win hard now

What did I do last month? :'(

Thanks Harve and Colm :3 For this month's stat that I'm looking up too early and may or may not end up being relevant... Neliönoir casually contending for a third top 3 finish in a row which would make them only the 6th country to manage that, following Daehun, Numayania, St. Burbia, Yehesi and of course Aeroche who are built different as ever and have done it 4 separate times.

Thanks Mikey ending a bit of a drought for me as I'm clearly heading for another pretty low finish I find myself rooting for the elusive 30th place result again I guess x (or 40th)

Thanks Savan! f5ve in the top 5 now

Thanks Miri :3 Annalisa still proving tough to shift, must be quite a rarity for a song to be leading from literally the first vote and remain at #1 throughout the entire results but it might well happen at this rate!

Ooh go Trifoski

Thanks Izzle <3 we stan Japan bloc support x edit: ty Chez also!

Thanks blacksquare 🖤 need both of the current bottom 2 to get more fans soon pls x

Black box recordings x

I guess we're taking Klum Rep and Bøtanikkä as Taahino's 2 and 1 then? x

In the event of this contest not ending up just being a landslide for Annalisa... yeule doing so well from the voters that have been so far seems quite surprising to me (I wouldn't have expected this song to have much pop crossover at all) so that may be a rather good sign for them x

aside: love the timing of the results of this final featuring a song about Jannik Sinner coinciding with him playing a Grand Slam final

Rich <3 a strong month for Rontphonia relations as I'm sure it's not too much of a spoiler for me to say! Thanks Mack as well

Thanks Jade :3 On course for the odds to be on the money so far then, but then it has been a pop hoe heavy early batch x

Anyhoo cheering on my fellow Japanese bloc nations again as well as various other foreign language entries x Thanks Ansel for delivering us an early medal position *.*

I think if you right click and click 'paste without formatting' it should come through as text (that works when copying from Excel anyway).

[/late] Qualification streak update (underlined nations have matched or beaten their longest streak to date, streaks that are longer when counting non-consecutive participations are in italics where applicable): 01 55 Hendinia (non-consecutive: 60) 02 20 Aeroche 03 17 Danæviia 04 15 Bøtanikkä 04 15 Greenfroze 04 15 Trifoski 07 12 Neliönoir 08 11 Altyr Muunilinst 08 11 Cor Lupus 10 10 Ajanaeda 10 10 Cumulonimbia 10 10 Kluminican Republic 10 10 Lookylion 14 8 Why So Sirius 15 6 Jadakissnia 16 5 Aesthetica 16 5 Bronzil 16 5 FARC 16 5 FSR Rontvia 16 5 Persephonia 16 5 Séyetana 22 4 Baleghde 22 4 Macromia 24 3 Land of DW 24 3 Zanmatony 26 2 Lotunia 26 2 République d'Áskorza 26 2 Scotland 2 26 2 Skall 26 2 Taahino 26 2 Terra Avium 32 1 A-Konohagakure 32 1 Flynnonda 32 1 Herbilore 32 1 Hushkanukia (non-consecutive: 5) 32 1 Kathaldazia 32 1 Mothertopia 32 1 New Lexico 32 1 Ojnoj 32 1 POPHub 32 1 Yehesi xx (4) The Spodic Empire xx (2) Ben's Sanctuary xx (2) Jupiterdonia xx (1) Aelandor xx (1) Cheiron xx (1) East Rukahavian xx (1) Hinterlandia (non-consecutive: 3) * xx (1) Palmyra * xx (1) Pestolia xx (1) Thelonia (non-consecutive: 3) * * did not enter this contest so may resume a non-consecutive streak in the future Not a lot of note to comment on this month as the biggest streak lost was The Spodic Empire's 4, so the entire top 10 (of 14 countries) remain in place, with Hendinia continuing to expand their record and hitting 60 entries in a row making the final (55 in consecutive contests) and Danæviia, Greenfroze, Neliönoir and Ajanaeda also extending their current records by another contest to 17, 15, 12 and 10 respectively. Otherwise of note in the top 10, Aeroche have made it to 20 in a row again (this is the third time they've done this, as their last two DNQs were following runs of 36 and 31 consecutive qualifiers respectively), and the cutoff for that top 10 is now 10 so all of the countries in the top tier have appeared in every final for the last year. Below the top 10, Why So Sirius make it to 8 qualifiers in a row for the first time after matching their previous record of 7 last month, Macromia expand their current record to 4 and Aesthetica join the underlined nations as they hit 5 in a row which matches their record that they previously set right off the bat with their first 5 entries in BJSCs 88-92 (the first 3 of which were under their original country name of Lomaja, throwback x).

Oop I forgot I hadn't posted it, will do (not much has changed since the last update, everyone who had a streak higher than 4 qualified again, and all but one of the countries who had a streak of 4 did too x)

Boated ~ there is a rather long running nation making my medal positions for the first time ever o:

The playcount is listed next to the song when you view its parent album (or single), although only on desktop, so if you're trying to do it on mobile I think the answer is you can't.

I would still put 'The Giver' in the 'country pop' bucket. It's no more country than songs like 'TEXAS HOLD 'EM', 'I Had Some Help' and 'A Bar Song (Tipsy)' which were all huge hits here.

...well in a surprising turn of events I was doing one of my occasional checks if any of my missing entries got re-uploaded to Spotify and the Kiely Rich remix of 'Dark Star' is in fact finally on Spotify its release date is listed as 2013 but from the upload date on the auto-generated YouTube version it was only actually added to streaming services a couple of days ago so that was a well timed search. Maybe it was on Spotify back in the day as well but I couldn't find any evidence of that, in any case I now know that all of my entries have been on Spotify at some point at least, and back down to just 4 that aren't currently available! (should do an update to my post that was actually replying to the thread title at some point when I can be bothered to crunch the numbers again, will be interesting to get a rough idea of how many streams each of them do per day x)

Pulp's 'Spike Island' sneaking into the low end of the top 200 on Apple (#193)! Don't remember if it appeared at all when it was first released.
