Oh hi CAF - did not realise that you still posted in here?

I hadn't been here for a long time (had to register anew) - it's great to see you!,

yoshi94 · 02/04/14 - 08:46

You've been here before CAF?

yeah, but it is several years ago - I had another nick... (don't remember which one)

yoshi94 · 02/04/14 - 19:19

Some good songs

BBAnne · 06/04/14 - 16:29

I'll keep submissions open until 6pm tonight - there's still some fan favourites available, so hit me with a PM and see if yours is still there!

Playlist to follow around 7.30pm - but i won't be accepting any votes until tomorrow - I know a lot of you are familiar with most of the songs, but I think it's fairer to give them all a good listen, and voting is open until 18th April, so there's plenty of time for all that

BBAnne · 06/04/14 - 18:01

OK submissions are now closed for this contest

Shirley Clamp, Mo from Norway, Joanna from France and Davina from Malta walk away with heavy hearts having been denied yet again this year - but don't worry, we have 45 cracking entries to get through and find our favourite of the rejects of the class of 2014

Playlist to follow (after dinner

)

BBAnne · 06/04/14 - 19:07

And here we have it, the best of the rest of 2014.

Points to me in a Eurovision style please by 12 midday on Friday 18th April 2014 - I won't be accepting any votes this evening please - tomorrow at the very earliest as I hope you can at least sleep on the songs and get to know them a bit

You cannot vote for your own entry!

There won't be any penalties for non-voters, however some stiffly worded pm's should be expected and endured

Please take the time to listen to all the tracks, a couple are new to me and I thought I'd watched everything

Enjoy!

phill363 · 06/04/14 - 21:02

That's a nice low number was worried that there would be over 60

BBAnne · 06/04/14 - 21:04

Two of you will go in the naughty corner if you don't concentrate on what's there rather than what isn't

Poor Greta and her ukulele just can't catch a break!

da33431 · 06/04/14 - 22:50

Thanks for putting it all together Anne, will have to find time work my way through these. Hopefully some new tracks for the ipod will be found!

Lisa.B · 07/04/14 - 00:28

Had a first run through of the playlist, 30 managed to survive the initial cull and even that was being overly kind to a few! Picking just 10 is definitely going to be hard work though and even more so to rank them.

brb · 07/04/14 - 09:22

Ok! Gonna start the playlist at work in a min!

rosetta12 · 07/04/14 - 09:52

What a playlist

I toyed with the idea of taking part but was too lazy, and rightly so, I don't think I could make it through that playlist and stay sane...

(Plus I can't stand the fact that songs I love usually do badly, and songs I hate usually do too well - a lot like in the real Eurovision

Anyway (and that said), I hope MIAU does well...!)

brb · 07/04/14 - 13:19

Well... that was an experience.

thms · 07/04/14 - 23:48

looking forward to the playlist

Jaccobabe · 08/04/14 - 09:39

Many good so far. Im so in love with Markus Riva. OMG

I KNOW! He would of been the perfect eye candy that this year is so desperately missing... It's just such a shame his performance was so dreadful

!

Wilkimania · 08/04/14 - 16:54

I find it weird how much my mood changes my rankings. So far I've listened to the playlist twice and both times ended up with entirely different top 10's.

Hey there!
