As stated above i don't bother with JESC for many reasons. But this is a total joke.

PLAYLIST

PM me your votes as per the usual.

Voting closes 5pm Sunday 13th November and the results will follow shortly after.*

Non-voting will result in a 33% deduction.

Enjoy!

*Unless of course Trump somehow does the unthinkable in the early hours of Wednesday morning and the whole world has to start preparing for the rapture instead.

Also yes, you might spot one video is being hosted on my account. It's a rescue job for that player as only the vanilla staging version exists on youtube and the uninitiated really need to see the full experience.”

Giving this a bump because it took so long to find

No-one up for doing Heat 7?! I guess I'll do it if no-one else is willing....?!

I told myself I'd host another Fantasy Heat but then with DSFE hosting duties falling to me I don't trust myself after my last hosting mess up.

If you can host DSFE then I'm sure you are well qualified for here!

Yeah just do it. Fantasy fatigue has really hit hard it seems!

It's more the idea of hosting both at the same time which didn't end well last time.

Here we go again!

Please send your entries to me by 6pm Sunday 13th November for heat 7 of Fantasy this year.

And please please please check the wiki to ensure it hasn't been entered before or a song by your chosen artist hasn't already qualified this year!!

Thanks all!

Saara's singing No More Tears tomorrow, previously done on the show by Sam Bailey and our own Ruth Lorenzo. Great chance for her to show off her voice!

Really? I'd certainly class Sting as a guilty pleasure. It's an horrendous song, but for some reason I like it.

I also think its horrible, but since its Eric and was one of the favourite to *win* I cant consider it a GP, but people are different

The only person that thought Sting was a favourite was Eric himself.
