Just a quick question this 100+ post rule is it the same rule to vote.

In order to vote you have to know at least 2 chords. If you vote for a jazz song, you have to know at least 3 chords.

To be honest I still feel sorry for the guys I missed out. Some of my favourite songs from this month didn't make the shortlist because I was trying to be objective about song craft. Eurovision is not as easy as it looks.

If I'm being honest, I was gutted to not even make the long list with "Switchblade". Based on the quantity and positivity of the reviews, I thought it went down pretty well. What more do I have to do? (Weeps into beer)  ;D

Well, due to a combination of this being the most awesome forum on the internet for songwriters and the high caliber of songwriters thus attracted, it's crowded at the top. Where you are.  ;D

Sorry, when I said there were 4 front runners I miscounted. There are definitely only three  :)

Sorry Monty,  you did make the longlist, I just forgot to mention you in the original post. It was really tough to choose. Obviously next time you'll be there in place of Skub. Don't weep into your beer, it dilutes the alcohol.

WOW! I'm off my computer for a week(had a bit of surgery...nothing serious) :o and I come back to
this  exciting, but hilarious thread :o I'm honoured/surprised, that my song made the short list, of 7 :o
Great picks Marty :) Last month was saturated with a lot of really excellent songs, so it must have been
a very difficult job :) Kudos to you :) :)

It certainly was difficult and I know there are upset songwriters out there...fear not, they will return. I had an inital shortlist of 17 and was thinking ´what the **** do I do now?´. It could have been so different. Keep your votes coming everyone!

And another reminder, please remember to give me your top three and not just your number 1 - thanks.

3 days to go peeps, still too close to call...this is more important than the EU referendum. Get your votes in.

Pah, none of the other competition hosts ever complained.
