ASFM Summer Holiday Edition - THE RESULTS

[jyxz]

Efti had a later attempt at a solo career and the NOX continued.

Could have kept that for the covers round, but you’ve all suffered enough

 

[Tisch]

When are they FROM? It looked simultaneously early 90s and modern day pastiche. I've been lowkey fascinated since you sent them in. Where did you find them?!

1991

If memory serves, they were refugees. Somehow I think they were discovered by one of the guys from Army of Lovers, or something.

YES! I was fascinated enough to look them up. Efti was from Eritrea and the TWINS from Ethiopia, and they met in Stockholm

POSITIVE PEOPLE LIVE LONGER
DON'T BE NEGATIVE

A lesson for ASFM if there ever was one

 

[ButterTart]

Who's doing the next round of this parade of evil? As ever, I'm willing to host if needs be.

 

[Rachey]

I don't have a clue what's going on here so I'm just ignoring all tags, fyi!

I probably should've removed all the @'s sorry

You can do this in your sleep at this point.

 

[GNL]

Great job @Tisch. Thank you to those indie cindies that voted for my song.

 

[Berly]

A returnee to the ASFM world! But do you want him to stay?

Oh I’m glad I gave yours points now. Genuinely the only song I think I might keep out of this bin fire.

 

[Berly]

Also well done @Tisch and the winner

 

[jyxz]

Where did you find them?!

A couple of years ago on a Facebook group for cd reissue requests (Cherry Pop I think). I’d never heard of them before and that was the first thing I saw/heard from them.

It been on my ASFM list for a good while

 

[Raining on Me]

Oh that was a tense read, I feel I have wrestled for a lower top 10 hit with @ButterTart several times now with it always being 50/50 whether I make it or not (I have about 10 entries that finished between 8th-14th I think). Really didn't expect this one to end up being about my 7th most successful mind. Which doesn't sound too impressive until you realise we're on our 358th ASFM.

Thank you to all those lovely voters taking the time to vote for the originality of white girl sings electro pop song, or more specifically the "laaa la la la" bit which probably saved it from doom I do love it though and she has some SPLENDID other stuff up her sleeve.

Wonderful job @Tisch from start to finish. Now who's doing the next one because I have a really special white girl synth song ready to go that you've definitely never maybe heard the likes of before

 

[Raining on Me]

My song reminded me of a summer fling I had working abroad a couple of years ago which was my summer link.

This is so perfect, I fell completely in love with that song. I was convinced it was @Iguana. Did not expect to give my top points to a male ballad but this one did everything I'd ever want from that genre

 

[rhythmbandit]

Fun show. Deserved winner, congrats @Suomi

Slightly underwhelmed by 30th, especially after Kira won with Solid Gold last year. Time to find an actual banger for Halloween/Christmas/next week.

 

[OutSynk]

especially after Kira won with Solid Gold last year.

Oh.​

 

[Soldi]

Very pleased with 4th! Thank you to @RJN and @Pingu for the 20s

Well done @Suomi and to @Tisch for his efficiency x

 

[Marina Salty]

Thank you Tisch, congratulations to Queen of Summer Suomi, and thank you for some very unexpected votes

 

[cwej]

That was fun as always - congrats @Suomi

 

[straightorbroken]

Massive congrats to our repeat offender, but enough about Raspberry, well done Suomi. And another stellar job from Tisch - all the little touches were great (the Sweden emoticon was too much )

 

[straightorbroken]

Points from @Indie?

Oh and next time please don't call my song the winner if you're gonna proceed to give it NOTHING @straightorbroken

SorB hasn’t voted yet

I voted beautifully as always. Your song was another blinder - that's 2 in a row.

So now that this is officially confirmed, what is the theme after the next one BT is about to drop any hour now?

I went back and saw it now. The results were revealed at the speed of light, I must have been busy trying to emojireact to a post so I missed them.

 

[ButterTart]

Exclusive footage of me trying to have my tea and keep up with the vote reveals:

 

[cwej]

Also thank you @Kratz for not voting. At least it means my mate Matty doesn’t come last which is the main reason I entered that, just to see where he’d come (I still stand by that if it had been the 10th song in the list rather than the 38th it would have done better though - horrible graveyard position out of 40 songs).

And I don’t know how I do it but no matter what song @Suomi enters, even if it’s the winning song of the competition, I never ever give it a single point.

 

[ButterTart]

We could probably do with starting a new contest to help with the grieving process.

Yes please!

 

[OutSynk]

We could fit in two rounds before the dreaded Xmas one if the procrastinators get no special treatment this time.

2 ASFMS and an ASFXMAS? Have I died and gone to heaven?

I was just thinking the same thing, but instead of heaven, hell

 

[AGinAg (37)]

The Christmas one is likely to start towards the end of November. Naturally I will require assistance.

Well, not naming names but one poster has stuck their NECK out and offered to be the next host.

They did say they weren't going to start it until October, though, so I hope they've had a change of heart. We need something to smile about following the death of whoever that old woman off the telly was.

Or I could host the next one and let him do his thing in October.

Just whatever it takes to get the thread up in the next hour.
