[The Human Santapede]

A lot of similar songs making it through this time though which is a bit of a shame.

Was hoping at least one foreign language song (other than Finland) would do it.

One for me. I knew Mali wouldn’t get through though but I wanted to mix up the semi final so it wasn’t just female dance songs as the others I had in mind were that.

…I did vote for some of my own but I don’t think that I voted for all of them, I’d have to check…I did down vote the ones I did though to what I actually thought I would place them if they weren’t mine…/…if that makes sense…

[Coldwinter]

If its alright with everyone, I think that I might need to push the recap to Sunday evening as the editing of the recap is currently interfering with my sleep schedule for work; and I'm going to be working on this right after I get home from work this afternoon.

Voting will open the moment I post the recap. However, if people want to begin to their Grand Final voting early; I am fine with that.

…I honestly think that this was the most difficult one to vote on, the entries were so excellent and every one deserved a place in the final…

…I might wait for your recap because you make it so much easier in how you do it…you take some chill time for yourself though as well…..

[The Human Santapede]

Yeah I’ll wait for the recap too before considering votes.
