This has to be one of the best surprise chart hits in quite a while - tune!!!

Eeeeeek, that was a close one in the semi :/ Quite the comparative misfire this month! Well done Silas! Decent winner and makes up for “Mon Amour” not making it! Fab hosting Addy x

Last 😭

eep a flop incoming!

“Slugger” is SO good. Well at least in Dan’s world it’s not my worst performing of the year (which I’m totally expecting to happen 😭)

The lyrics for this are absolutely shocking, really not good.

I think it'll be Áskorza, with Bøtanikkä, FARC, Kathaldazia, A-Konohagakure, Neliönoir, Mothertopia, Klum Rep, Yehesi and Terra up there. I'd have thought Altyr would be one up there but unsure how that's being gauged. Me to do better than the naysayers are saying!!!! Basic, my bahookie x

ps1 & adam griffin // late night lover / bjsc 175 something a bit tarty and fun for BJSC 175, obsessed atm x

minuit machine // hold me / bjsc 174

ABSOLUTE. // stuck in love / bjsc 173

OMG! I wasn’t expecting that. Thank you so much! I really loved this song but thought it would be another of my 10-15 finishes because it’s a bit more basic or standard and usually CB favours the quirky, but I’m really glad it’s resonated. St. Germain in 2nd spot is wonderful too as that’s one of my all-time fave songs (my first email address ever was inspired by the album it’s from haha). Thought the quality this edition was v good, well done everyone!

Yay thank you for the Q - I’ve been addicted to my entry and it’s a fun tarty bop, so I’m glad to see it through despite READING me on SyncTube and in this thread!!!!

Was Stockholm Noir - Boy Like A Girl (FARC again!!!) not proportionately the closest at least in a while? (something like 42 votes to 58 voters or something)

Botanikka double win please!!

Really like that Barry Can’t Swim song, understandable veto but would’ve been nice to have it in!

AI got my back... great!!!!! 🙃

Thank you Herby!!! Wish I shared your confidence x

01 - Neliönoir 02 - Kluminican Republic 03 - Scotland 2 04 - Thelonia 05 - Terra Avium 06 - Aelandor 07 - Baleghde 08 - Bøtanikkä 09 - Bronzil 10 - Cheiron 11 - Pestolia 12 - Aeroche 13 - Ben's Sanctuary 14 - Hendinia 15 - Macromia Done a sort of rough Top 15 predicts, obvs not that reliable this month but thought I'd give it a bash!

Excited for this! Both "Tonight" and "Stateside" are SOTY material <3

Devastated. RIP Jiggly ♥️

This has to be the most songs I've ever known going to a contest... 19 songs!!! Some surprising inclusions (MØ in particular, if I'd known we could I probably would've!!!!) I think we could potentially be on route to go right back to Klum Rep next month as this is another huge one. I had so many potentials this month I love and could not pick between, so I've gone for one I hope has a bit of cross appeal and that I've played a lot. Hope I've made the right choice!

absolutely LOVE this.

Thanks everyone for the kind words regarding the theming and graphic design this contest, I had a lot of fun coming up with it and I think it's probs one of the better concepts I've had, glad it could be for a Patrick contest! You did a fab job with the hosting my love <3 x Well done to Ajanaeda, first-time winner!!! Fabulous winner. Love FARC in 2nd and I'm so glad you're back on form, hoping this can start another streak of greatness. Great to see Nelionoir in the Top 3, absolutely loved that and became my far-away fave - so catchy! Well done to Jade and Pav in the Top 5 with riskier entries, Patrick at a second hit in a row at 6th and Dandy* taking a great ballad into the Top 10 (LOVED). Regarding my own position - oops!!!! Definitely wanted better than 26th considering it's in my Top 5 most played songs of the last 5/10 years or so, I wonder if it would've done better when it was originally vetoed? Definitely got some great songs to get me back up the top hopefully next month onwards so lessssssgo x
