    PJ Retro 109 (songlist is here)

    The thematic connections are intentional! Except the last pair as the not-on-Spotify tracks don't really get sequenced (except within each other). TOO ADULT is in fact a very different vibe to the songs either side of it, but that's exactly why it's there (it was track 2 or 3 on my draft...

    Wait how do I er... am I supposed to have a spreadsheet? I think I'm supposed to have been putting the songs in a spreadsheet. Does anyone know where I get the spreadsheet that I'm supposed to have been putting the songs in so I can copy the songs back out of the spreadsheet that they're not...

    I think the songs are good. (So lower your expectations accordingly I suppose.)

    While we wait for the veto panel to make their final decisions, and they can take their time because I'm in no position to post the songlist tonight either way (I'm slightly drunk) (sorry you had to see this, 5-year-old Filler), let's have the list of participants! Mostly to give you the chance...

    A late veto's just come through that needs replacing, so it's not imminent! And until it's received and getting adjudicated, I might as well still accept stragglers, if anyone's like "OH NO I just saw this thread and have a song about childhood diarrhea that would be thematically perfect".

    Here's my tadpole-looking co-host to remind you all that you have 20 hours and 34 minutes remaining to submit an entry. Wow! Is that a drawing of a clock? Thank you, tadpole guy.

    By the way, last night when I was trying to remember how to host, I looked up PJ00s+ 66 (the last contest I hosted) for pointers, but typoed and got this instead. Possible bad omen for the round. Diarrhea is beginning.

    Welcome to the 109th edition of PJ Retro, a contest in which Popjustice forum users pit their favourite obscure pop songs from before 2000 against each other. As this is my first time hosting Retro, and I got the gig by not-quite-winning with a 1996 song, I've sent a copy of MS Paint backwards...

    PJRetro 108 - Le Concours Rétro Numéro Cent-Huit - フランスか日本 - Bravo Tu As Gagné

    No videos! Thankfully for my sanity and punctuality, I set a precedent when hosting PJ00s+ of only turning contests into elaborate video art projects when I *won* the preceding round. That behaviour is the hubris of a reigning champion, not a subbed-in runner-up. But I had a busy stressful...

    PJRetro 108 - Le Concours Rétro Numéro Cent-Huit - フランスか日本 - Bravo Tu As Gagné

    Had a good feeling about this one. Strong cross-demographic appeal for francophiles and francophobes – this is about as French as a song can sound without actually being *in* French. (I was genuinely surprised I couldn't find a French "original" version when I searched – I assumed the English...
