At least we won't have to tolerate another Lindgren song this year.
Steady now...

Of course he could premier a new one every week - you might get 6!

Anyone else wondering why Slovakia 2010 was one of the most watched videos of September on Eurovision's YouTube channel?

I now have to be out Sunday afternoon, unavoidable, so will have to do results a bit later than usual, I hoping about half eight (sorry) allowing for traffic.

Oh I've also only got 6 votes in at the moment and it's a bit all over the place which is interesting. The more the sooner the less I have to do when I get back, ta

All Saints - How many comebacks do they want? One Strike is better of their new ones, but obvs that wouldn't have been eligible.

Emeli Sande - Yeah this is definitely comeback week. All that manic grimacing must definitely hurt.

Olly Murs - Put it away Blobby Murs. This is surprisingly good actually.

Sophie Ellis-Bextor - Now we're talking. SEB's in good favour with the Beeb as well, they should be begging her every year tbh.

BANKS - Well it's not like we haven't sent an American before. This is one of those experimental vibe songs that needs a few listens to get it.

Jakil - Sounds like a support act at the start of a gig you'd instantly forget afterwards.

Stooshe - You get a comeback, you get a comeback, everyone gets a comeback! They've ditched the retro 60s sounds then? Good.

Bastille - 'Good Grief'... my thoughts exactly, next.

Phoria - File this one in the insomnia bank, oh and released 7th March.

Tom Chaplin - I thought his voice sounded familiar, it's that annoying twonk from Keane.

Florrie - Finally something decent! Florrie is always reliable, although again pushing the boundaries... released 5th Feb.

Jack Savoretti - I just can't with his voice.

The Big Moon - Haha brilliant! Well that's ruined Barbie for everyone. What on earth was she doing to that teddy?

Jonas Blue ft. JP Cooper - Now this would be ideal, very 2016 and I like how there's a faint hint of 'Fast Car' with Jonas' panpipe-y beats.

Birdy - Assuming everyone didn't end up in a coma, she'd at least guarantee us a strong jury vote.

Shawn Mendes - Ah it's the Canuck 'Stitches' kid going for a slowie. It picks up in the choruses, but 'Treat You Better' would be a better crowd pleaser.

MO - Not to be confused with Danish MO. This is very now too. They remind me of Neon Jungle, which err didn't end well.

Looking likely that Saara Aalto has made it through to the live shows on X Factor.

2nd place again for her?

Reminder that the Fantasy Heat 5 song deadline is at 5PM today.

I have 15 songs so far. So, I hope to get more today.

I have to go out now and will be back later so (depending on traffic) I hope to get the results started at the later time than usual of 8:30. I'm still waiting on only 3 more sets of votes. Thank you

Oh, if any non players want to vote please feel free

I have 20 songs for Fantasy Heat 5 so far. So, it'll be great to have at least one more so we can have 8 qualifiers(?). I'll be extending the deadline until 7 PM as I won't be home by then.

1-30 = 8, 31-40 = 10, etc. Although long gone are the days of getting those numbers tbh.

The next Heat has 22 songs in total. I think that's a good number for a playlist. I'll post it later tonight as I'm gonna run late.

She doesn't seem too popular on the X factor forum

So I'm back now and will give the results in a few moments. However I didn't get the votes from ChickenfromKiev, He did ask me if I got his votes in thread above after I said I was going out and wouldn't be back so couldn't answer. I've sent him a message to see If I can get them in the next ten mins as I sort out the rest

Thrilled for Saara but judging by the edit, they're trying to turn her into the series villain.

I fear she'll be one of the first boots.
