Giving these a listen today! One was on my list of possible entrants and last time that happened it finished in second place.
If it happens again I’m going to start reversing my selection process and entering they things I think will flop instead of the things that actually flop.

Somehow managed to miss both of the events, so am going to quickly share some thoughts as I listen to the songs before moving on with the chopping procedure.
3% of Moopy / Fletcher - Healing: Gorgeous melody lovely vocals breezy atmosphere simple and effective.
Another ballad?! / Raphael - L'année la plus chaude de tous les temps: My vocab is limited alright but this is equally gorgeous, the piano is beautiful, enjoying the clapping.
What a lovely way to start the asfm with these two gems back to back. Haiku queen of song orders.
Blair fondled by Bush / Chorale feat. Päivi Lepistö - Suomidancee: It's not fair to skip, is it? Not my thing at all. Maybe am not in the correct mood for it.
BOBS / Meg Myers - Desire: Οh here we go this is much more like it. Nice lyrics. Lovely melancholy/despair in the melody. Oh no, a guitar solo.
Candle... in the eye / Faouzia - Puppet: Yes please, I could never be a puppet either.
cats are evil / LiSa - ADAMAS: The speed in this one is unreasonably fast (sorry Zen) but there's a cute-ish element hidden somewhere here. Great finale.
Celine Loves Fisting / VELÜR - ПОЦIЛУЙ МЕНЕ: Oh some lovely saxophone. This is pleasant.
Chop Chop Chop / audiobooks - Friends In The Bubble Bath: Cuteish. Oh, it gets better. Oh no, it's deteriorating again. Not sure how I feel.
Current Daily Mood / Camille - Money Note: This is slightly irritating. Hope it skips to some change of pace or melody. It doesn't. Oh, here it is. Nice bridge. Should have ended 1 min earlier.
Ditto Drag Reveal / Laleh - Svenska 2: An oasis in comparison. Very instant. The melody is familiar, is it a cover of sth? Can't remember what song it is that it reminds me of.
Fucking Liar Camille / Gryffin with AlunaGeorge & Gorgon City: Yes am not the target audience here either, the speed is more accelerated than I would have wanted, it's good though.
Fun Place to Sit / Pearl Charles - Only for Tonight: The ABBA reminiscent one. Cute.
funky being hit by lorry / Elias Kaskinen - Beibe: This is so instant. Love this. Not sure if it's in Estonian or Finnish. Either way, he makes it sound fabulous.
I Got It / Fishbach - Un autre que moi: Yes please, this is divine. Could it be Bev? Whoever you are I love you.
I refuse to diminish my character to survive / QUEEN BEE - 夜天(STARRY NIGHT): The weird video one. It's very pleasant to this pair of ears. Got me hooked from 1st listen.
Insane Gays Handling Rejection / The Veronicas - Lolita: Yes not my cup of tea again. There are some specific elements I can love here, but it gets excessive as a whole.
It’s Joan Crawford dude! / Ellie Warren - Satellites: Feels like sth I have heard a thousand times with other lyrics while growing up. Makes me a bit nostalgic for the era but not much else.
Keri Hilson upskirt / Rigoberta Bandini - In Spain We Call It Soledad: This makes me wish I was a Dj in some island's club to watch people losing their shit the moment I'll put this on for the first time. And I think I'm falling in love with her, in a platonic way.
LATE NIGHT DRUNK MOOPY / Kendal Johnson - Blue Moon: This ends so abruptly. I didn't even have the time to think anything more than that it also makes me nostalgic.
Well that's all, thank you for reading my rambling, if you do.
