As disheartening as it is to see people upset with their performance in these contests, these kinds of conversations are actually not really that nice for me so I find it hard to support them or to be able to contribute something without feeling that it's being aimed at me (as well as a couple of others) in particular. There's one thing to be upset at your own performance which I definitely get, but then it always descends into sort of snarky side comments about the people who 'always qualify' and the unconscious bias being the reason that some people qualify all the time, diminishing and dismissing that people who do well are probably only doing well because we're being unfairly supported. So yeah, really not cool guys.

Heya, sorry for not voting but I’ve had a really, really tough time with my mental health and this sort of theme wasn’t the easiest to do when I tried and I don’t think I’m in the headspace to work on it quickly, so I’ll take the deduction on the chin.

glad to hear! mine was definitely risky

gottmik, kandy and rosé this time!

i’m the same! team rochester for the win, we love darienne n kasha in this house ♥️

Have to agree!

you're doing amazing sweetie, keep up the good quality x

come off it !!!!!

Thanks for "Mirage" getting 12th, I was completely in it to win it this month (as it feels to me like one of the strongest things I've ever sent!) so was hoping for more but my 14th straight Top 20 hit - amazing. Really appreciated! Wasn't a fan of the winner unfortunately but can't deny the force that is Lookylion, they know how to grab the pop girlies. Rich is back on fantastic form these days, bridesmaid four times in a year is equally frustrating and also amazing - the old guard has it. Yobdenorica (amazing stuff from them this year) and Fljótavík Top 10 is fabulous, although I'm surprised both got through the veto (I would've probably have given "Kandy" a go last month!). Sad for Neliönoir, brave stuff from them - I was going to send "HAHA" next month (which I obviously won't now) but may have dodged a bullet! Please keep entering though as I love your musical perspective. Fantastic hosting from Terra!

Willow again

I was thinking I was onto a winner when I confirmed but I don't think in this final it will get the audience to do it, maybe somewhere in the Top 15/20 region as I'm not sure people have got on board in quite the way they need to to do better! I'll say Rontvia this month. Would be super disappointed in really any of the pop songs winning LOL (aside from Yobnedorica / Pagasa but I doubt we'll get them).

Oh I really loved "Worth Something" - was looking to be my 18 in the final if it had made it!

Voted! A few commiserations in the end, fairly good quality.
