legends stay at the bottom sis!!!!! let's enjoy the flop together xheat
Easy for you to say, but I've been flopping for nearly 10 WLSC's straight. I started delving further into my real taste in music in more recent contests, and it has backfired horribly on my performance.

Agreed with theditz83 that Pyreica deserved way more love. This batch as a whole was one of the weaker ones imo, but "Believe" was one of the few highlights. It ranked in the bottom half pretty much entirely because of its genre, and that's pretty tragic.

Because of a mistake in the Utopolis points, they are some changes in the end result. Sorry guys :oops:
Here are the correct result:
Shit happens, our Ministry of Diplomacy doesn't seem to mind it at all as long as action would be undertaken and it has. I mean, we can't have corrupt data in our systems.

not kinda easy because i've been flopping hard as well. it's basically the second time in three editions that i avoided last because someone else didn't vote. and i've been near bottom most of the times.

i hope this doesn't discourage you to send what you like. i personally think your taste is amazing (just look how many times i gave you high scores) and i'm sure i'm not the only one here. hope you get the good result you deserve as soon as possible. xrose

You think that is bad? When I was last in WorldVision I had an 18 edition run of non-qualifiers haha

For me the result isn't really important in WLSC. I know my taste in music isn't everyone's cup of tea and I'm ok with that.

My entry for the upcoming edition is VERY VERY different. It could either flop really bad or win the whole thing! xpolice xheya

First, thank you the support you're giving to Believe, I'm really glad some of you enjoyed it as much as I did.
Many things can explain a flop, not only the genre, but I hope this won't prevent you from sending entries in accordance to your real taste in music. I know it might be hypocritical of me to say, last time I may have given you 5 points this time I didn't. But I don't want you, or anyone for that matter, to force yourself to send songs you're not comfortable and happy with in order to get better results.
I understand it's a complicated question, all of us more or less struggle with sending the best entry in terms of personal taste and potential results. But I'm sure it could work, even with songs you might expect to flop

Lesson 1: When you send something you like the results are often going to be a bit disappointing because your taste is your own and often doesn't translate well.

In the case of Believe, I marked it down heavily because of iffy vocals, shoddy production values in the given version and the lack of a strong distinctive vocal melody that could solidify its case (like Bananarama has, but which also didn't score points from me because the production is just silly). It was not because of a 'genre', but this might have been a reason for others.

Congrats, Arkodrë!!! :D
Sadly, it was my :0: because this song from Ava did not impress me as much as her previous ones and it was a large and (as it always happens) simultaneously very hot edition, so it was hard to give points to all the songs I liked, as I said before. But still, I do enjoy this song and it's no doubt a totally deserved victory! xup

And... oh my gooooooooosh xfaintxfaintxfaint
That top-5 xheat with this song... that's like the biggest surprise for me ever in WLSC xshock1:
I was expecting to finish... in the middle of the bottom I guess :lol:

Thank you, my dear lovelies xlove xlove xlove

@Rmetr0
We suggest that you consider separately the vote of the NBS and our islanders...Then everything will remain at its best! :cool:

Wooo congrats Arkodrë! xcheer xcheer I've only given it 7 points because this edition was extra hot and in a weaker edition it would've been my twelve. Shame she's born in Wisconsin, too far from my WV region :lol:
