A Song for Moopy: Undercover - VOTE NOW (Closes Thursday 8th October 6pm)

[AGinAg (37)]

Does anyone have any predictions of what's going to hit and what will flop?

 

[Kate]

You missed @ZenGiraffe!

 

[AGinAg (37)]

I suspect Fun or the gay ice skater will win.

All the male guitar ones to flop obviously. Other than that I’ve given up trying to second guess Moopy’s taste, but I have high hopes for our Licky Lee.

 

[Tisch]

I suspect Fun or the gay ice skater will win.

I'm watching out for both of these for sure. Also Turn It Into Love, Suspicious Minds and Wanna Be Like a Man

 

[Kate]

I suspect Fun or the gay ice skater will win.

OH yes Fun. And perhaps Take Me Away.

 

[Kate]

And September?

 

[Kate]

I’ve forgotten which one was the skaters.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

Turn It Into Love was rotten. I didn't entirely get the Dancing Divaz one. Suspicious Minds was amazing. Also Cloudbusting when it comes to songs to unscrew the amyl nitrate bottle for.

Shola and Safri Duo both popped in very different ways.

 

[Rita]

I have yet to LISTEN. It will be my highest priority over the next 2 days.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

OH yes Fun

I only realised after I fell for it, that it was a Coldplay cover which made me feel like a pet rapist.

 

[Kate]

I thought it was Natalie Imbruglia?!

 

[ZenGiraffe]

You missed @ZenGiraffe!

I know! Rude!

 

[Kate]

It is Nat but written by Chris Martin! UGH.

 

[ButterTart]

@ZenGiraffe I know you've already submitted your votes but FOR FUCK'S SAKE SUBMIT YOUR VOTES.

How was that?

 

[AGinAg (37)]

It is Nat but written by Chris Martin! UGH.

I discovered that they'd recorded it withTove Lo. It made my skin crawl.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

Although I didn't fully listen. They may have been different songs with the same lyrics(!)

 

[ButterTart]

I discovered that they'd recorded it withTove Lo. It made my skin crawl.

I didn't know about this Chris Martin connection until just now. Still, it's a banger.

 

[Lucille]

I’m fingering ICELAND and MONACO for big things.

 

[ZenGiraffe]

@ZenGiraffe I know you've already submitted your votes but FOR FUCK'S SAKE SUBMIT YOUR VOTES.

How was that?

I'm satisfied

 

[Lucille]

I'm satisfied

WHAT DOES THAT FEEL LIKE?!?

 

[ButterTart]

Quite a broad spectrum of songs being fingered at the minute. Now it'll be even more of a shock when Kosovo romps to victory with a 150 point lead.

 

[Kate]

I discovered that they'd recorded it withTove Lo. It made my skin crawl.

I’m refusing to listen but the lyrics are different...

 

[ButterTart]

I’m refusing to listen but the lyrics are different...

I've just listened.
1. I'm delighted to announce it's a different song!
2. Why does Chris Martin sing like he's just eaten a load of melted chocolate?

 

[Berly]

I shall vote tomorrow. I am 95% ready. Just need to order my selection

 

[ButterTart]

I have a suspicion that I'll be giving the spreadsheet an absolute battering tomorrow.

 

[Indie]

I've voted. Bit weird this time - the top 5 fell into place but i struggled even more than normal with 11th-15th. It's an absolute crapshoot.

 

[Indie]

I wonder if i'll get a like every time i say i've voted

I've voted

I have 21 remaining contenders for points but only 5 that will certainly be getting points. Onwards.

 

[straightorbroken]

Iceland is my arctic hot prediction to win.

Wanna Be Like a Man is my lava burning favourite discovery.

Suspicious Minds and time of the month woman also very disco-very.

Or maybe I've said too much

 

[straightorbroken]

Oh the Paris one is a HOOT

There was one on the album that sampled the Grease theme that was a genuine bop as well.

I Want You. The album is quite stellar in places.

And speaking of packing it all in, the one about 2 jocks having a sword fight in her mouth is a revolting highlight.

 

[SDF]

The SDF votes have been cast and votes are making their way over to ButterTart as we speak

 

[OutSynk]

I have a suspicion

You enjoyed saying that didn’t you.

 

[Diddy]

No more boring sad bop winners please (unless it’s Cloudbusting but that’s not boring)

 

[Diddy]

The Cover theme was interesting, i guess inevitably it’s not gone how I thought though, there are totally different categories this time

Basically all combinations of “original songs I know/don’t know” and “covers I know/don’t know”

The bulk seem to be covers I didn’t know of songs I don’t know, which might as well be an ASFM, some of them are good at least.

unintentionally my best points went to covers of songs I knew already (but didn’t know the cover).

I don’t know if some of these double unknown covers are actually well known, but they do feel like a bit of a loophole for people who didn’t really want to do covers

 

[Diddy]

I hope those Pentatonix gays don’t win either :/ nice skating though.

did pentatonix split then? I guess they WERE too gay to function after all

 

[ButterTart]

Voting closes TOMORROW.

If you've already voted and would like to submit an image or video to accompany your country reveal during the Who Sent What Gala at 7 OF CLOCK TOMORROW NIGHT, please feel free to send them via DM, Facebook message thing or e-mail (I can send you my address if you ask for it).

 

[Berly]

I have VOTED @ButterTart

Got to say the recap video made this so easy @ZenGiraffe

I can exclusively reveal that THREE songs have crossed over onto my Spotify playlists

 

[ButterTart]

Two more sets of votes received this morning!

The battle at the top of the leaderboard continues apace. A couple of songs that had drifted a bit are now mounting something of a comeback.

By Christ this is exciting.
