Good job KK remembered to vote before going out then! Thanks to you for that other 12 and the rest for the votes. Top 10 will do especially for saying that at the start of the results I'd forgotten what I'd entered...

Me vs. my 12 pointer

I'm rooting for Salvaje because it's clearly the better song.

Congrats nunaney! Both songs were great, surprised to see that thengp entered Salvaje but obviously appreciated. Thanks for hosting Nick!

WTF? I thought for sure it would be Salvaje. I actually won something for the first time in my life!

But only because I broke my own rules and sent a Eurovision artist so it doesn't feel like a true victory. I'm still really happy though! I was starting to think I wouldn't get any qualifiers this year and now I actually won a heat. I'm sure it will never happen again. Thanks everyone who voted!

I can't even remember the runner up Great winner though, it was such a good playlist this week I would have been happy with any of my top 5 or 6 winning. And I did a lot better than I expected as well!

So happy to get a qualifier.. I thought this was a great round. when i sent off my points this morning there were 8 songs I could have given 12 points too. Well done to everyone who has a qualifier and congratulations to nunaney and thengp12 on the first and runner-up.. Thanks nick1990 for hosting once again..
The song is good fun.. The girl has dumped the lead singer.. No matter how many times he tries to get a date she wont see him.. He sings about all his attempts without success.. Check out their other videos.. They are really great..
