I didn't vote for any of the top 5.

Hate that Elle King song though.

Well done Wolfie. I loved that one when I first heard it but overplay on Heart FM has killed it somewhat for me.

I've never heard Elle King so it was a big treat for me, absolutely addicted! Good choice Wolfie and we'll done for winning!

Thank you so much Nick for hosting a really high standard opening round, playlist is all ready and ready to be posted. Just got The Lion King on the background which is rather fitting.

Congrats wolfy! Elle King would have gotten my 12 points few months ago. But, it was overplayed here. Still, I'm pleasantly surprised it became a hit.

Thanks for the 2nd place. I have a soft spot for Dami as she's an underdog, and happy that she found success in Eurovision. As I don't have to worry about qualifying anymore, I might look up songs that may or may not involve singing goats.
Thanks Lisa for the 12 points, btw!

Looking forward to the Disney playlist as well. I'm proud of the song I've chosen there so I'm interested on its results there.

Lol Dami is bridesmaid again!

Congrats wolfy. It's a stomper of a song, more than the measly 4 I gave it suggests, but when you've gone through a phase of hearing it almost hourly on an NZ radio station that has even less of a playlist than Radio 1, it kinda loses its affect after a while.

Great hosting Nick! Looking forward to seeing what everyone's picked for the Disney round.

PLAYLIST

Please get your votes sent into me via PM no later than 5pm Sunday 24th July or face a 33% point deduction which I really don't want to have to do because I suck at maths. Of course, points have to be sent to me in Eurovision style 1-12 in numerical order!!! Otherwise like Cinderella's evil step mother I'll send them back and make you do them again.

Have fun, I'm spreading plenty of Disney magic to each and every one of you!

ZM radio, it was basically like a radio station in the GTA games playing the same handful on rotation. Not a lot of radio variety anyway, plus actually finding a station that'll hold its signal.

Dami's song didn't win phill, it was Elle's song that won.

Just got in and caught up. Well done to the top ten! Thanks for the votes, three sets of 12s and some other good points, yay! I was undecided which way to do my top three if I'd done it one of the other ways i would have qualified. So was my own fault. I can live with that.

Congratulations to all the qualifiers and in particular our winner Steeleuro_wolf, it's perfect for eurovision.. thanks to everyone who voted for my pick and thanks for hosting nick

I've not told anyone this before now, but I am grateful my young niece, who is on holiday in nice, is safe and well.. I found out from my brother she saw terrible things and was caught up in the running.. that's all I know. he told me she was in shock, but wants to be with her friends..

Thank you to the fabulous fourteen who voted. Found her through a random Huffpost tweet. Couldn't ignore the Ruslana comparison but I liked the idea of sending something Ukrainian influenced by someone from the Russian Federation. Also fell in love with the idea of trying to save a dying language through song.
