I've seen the raft of PMs, I'll sort them out tomorrow along with the remaining 7 I think I'm still waiting for. Been out all day and too utterly destroyed to do it tonight.

Im still at only six entries. Seems the uk isn't producing enough to inspire at the moment. I hope this isn't a bad sign for the real nf.

There is some good stuff out there when i looked... honest ☺

I'm getting lots more entries thanks. However I'm also getting quiet a few duplicates so please don't be disappointed if your song has gone. But there is loads still out there and quiet a few artists with a few songs that are eligible which I thought would be taken but haven't even had one song entered for them. This is a really interesting.

I've got all the votes now, just doing the last bit of double checking. Results should be coming around half 5.

Are we all sitting comfortably for the results of Best Remix 3? Tbh they won't take that long given how little interest there is in the contests at present.

Taking home the wooden spoon award, and very nearly was a new addition to the exclusive nil point club. I can see what it's going for, but these Mashup ones never really do that well.

Now it sounds like it's from the 90s instead of the 70s. A popular low scorer, hence it never really took off.

A brutal week for the King, had to suffer a few rejections before settling on the slight calypso vibes to this revamp.

Now this is how you do a revamp. At least one thing the Mad Show could do right. I will throw all the strops if Demy isn't Greece's 2017 entrant.

Didn't have high hopes for this one as I heard way better songs in the playlist. Interestingly, none of the 10 songs I voted for have showed up yet.

The first of two ties coming up.

The loser of the tie...

The only way I can listen to the Crimean War anthem now. Turning up on the garage beats really saves it. A lot of erratic scoring which meant it eventually fell the wrong side of the top 10.

Here's your first of the ten you voted for Lurkio.

The winner of the tie...

A good attempt at trying to rescue the Opera dirge. Struggled to get any big scores that could've got it into the top 10, but rose steadily up the scoreboard throughout the week.

The second of the ties coming up.

The loser of the tie and just scraping into the top 10...

I loved the extra elements added and what sounded like a didgeridoo. Wasn't sure about the random wailing though.

The winner of the tie...

Not a bad result for being a back up choice. Esma's ethnic wailing gets me every time. I still insist she should've done this solo. A drastic improvement on the dirge original.

I prefer the Cahill remix, but they're all an improvement on the original. Was a mainstay of the top 5 all week until the points all but dried up today.
