    Is it possible to be half happy? I'm delighted with one country but the other one...let's just say I can't remember them ever having a good song in a contest I've entered :o

    YEEEESSSSS!, I have got the country from the groups (I was literally jumping around like I was when I won this contest, that was a surreal moment, how do you all react when you won?) I wanted, reasonably happy with my other country, I am not sure if I have actually had them from the top of my head, but certainly now had them recently.

    Will give my group country song one more listen before sending it in.

    :D

    that usually happens to me, but whilst I am happy with my 2nd country it does not mean that I expect it to universally loved - well the same goes for my good country but you know what I mean. When I have had my 'national finals', I will definitely have 2 songs that I love as my entries so I am happy with that. Whilst I would be disappointed to go out at QF stage, at least I love my entries and can be happy I put them in! ;-)

    I would like to wish everyone good luck! :) And I obviously am wishing everyone good luck, but am sparing my good wishes mostly for the new guys to the contest like NancyS - she had some good entries last time and was unlucky! :(

    Delighted with my first country, it's the one I had my eye on when submitting the group preference.

    Tempted to gamble for my second country.. I've found a few that will be proper Marmite entries, I want to see how one of them fares. :D

    Got seriously lucky here with both of my countries and hopefully I've got at least one fairly strong entry.

    So that's probably me out in the QFs then :p

    Good luck all, really looking forward to this one!

    Sent both my entries in already! Was a bit disappointed as I couldn't get one of the songs I've had lined up, as they were ALL removed from YouTube and when I try to upload it myself, it gets immediately blocked for copyright </3!

    But I'm still reasonably happy :)

    that always sucks :(

    well if some people have sent their entries in already, does that mean we will get some reveals tonight? :)

    I was so happy with my first country but then I realized the the song I originally planned to send was over 5 minutes :( but I sent another song by the same artist which may end up doing better than the one I wanted to send. We shall see.

    I'm quite happy with the second country too. I think both songs have a pretty decent chance of making it out of the quarterfinals. It's my first contest so that's the most I will hope for.

    I have my first song in, though need more time for the second. I have someone in mind but they haven't been too popular here!

    that doesn't necessarily mean anything though - if your song seems better (and it isn't always possible to gauge people's reaction to repeat artists on here), then why not?

    Agreed, I'm definitely going with the "do I like this? Yes? Then I'm sending it in. Screw results." kind of method. :p

    That is my method - I am listening to mine and I keep coming back to what I love - I gave up guessing what everyone else likes on here a long time ago! :D

    Dylan? If you have some entries are you going to give us a few each night? I only ask as the next two nights I might be busy with work and unable to catch up? I always love the first reveals :) will try and catch up where I can etc :DThe kind of days at work I am having, I could do with something to look forward to when I get back as well?

    I will eventually, but just finishing something else up, and then will go through everything I have so far and start doing some reveals. :D
