PJ00s+ 73: 1-555-CONFIDE / Winner (& final confessions) revealed!

David Bowie’s music has always been something I’ve just dabbled in. I like it, but have never really ‘gone all in’. That said, I can watch interviews with the dude until the end of time. He’s just super intelligent & a great communicator on so many subjects. I’ll watch an interview on YouTube every now & then… and then the algo will start shoveling the content to me. Before I realize it I watched like 10 segments with him. dd
 
This is maybe the addictive component built into the Spotify app.
I finally got premium Spotify like a year ago and only this round started trying the “similar artist” technique with little success so far. I literally have no list, short or long, of songs in the 00+ category! Maybe two I know would flop and don’t really love. I have to at least love it if I know it’s doomed haha.

Hence why I so rarely participate (and probably why I’ve never done very well). When I really want to join I’m always scrambling to come up with something, and so far it’s mostly been something I managed to remember.

…anyway one more vote for David Bowie being overrated. Five or so years ago he had a show here at the Brooklyn Museum and everyone was freaking out to get tickets and a spate of hipster parents were bragging about their kids being really into him and dressing them up like him for Halloween. It was a lot.

But… he died in 2016?!

Keep trying that function, or go to artists you like and click on their Radio playlist. It's full of related music.
 
Alright, you wanted something messy...

CONFESSION #6

"[REDACTED], [REDACTED], [REDACTED]? All suspected alt accounts for a big contest player with an incredible (or incredulous?) hit rate - when their validity was called out in private these 3 accounts mysteriously stopped playing. Coincidence? Follow the voting patterns…."

Right. This was a whole thing a few years ago, I was even part of the "investigation", which involved stuff like IP address checks... a proper to-do. But as juicy as this was, in the end I believe it was debunked.

I wonder who might have sent this one...

CONFESSION #7

"Dalida is an underrated queen. The world needs to know what a vital and groundbreaking artist this polyglot legend is for the music industry."

You're so brave, thank you for sharing your story.
This wasn’t me! Like this is something I need to get off my chest, like I don’t say it multiple times a minute already unprompted fff

Glad someone else sees the light <33

I will note this video though, which is eerily mesmerising

 
Hopefully the song list will be up tomorrow, and in the meanwhile let's have a look at some vetoes...



This one was already entered in round 18.




Kaci is past the ten page limit.




This one didn't even make it to the veto panel as it's a song I wanted to enter this round but never actually submitted because I saw it'd already appeared in the early days of PJSC, but the funny thing is someone else also tried submitting it, so we could have had something which I believe is really rare in PJ00s+/PJRetro, a double entry.
