Popjustice Song Contest XXIII (23) // IMADUCK TO THE RESCUE // Results at 8PM BST, tonight.

thank especially Laurence & MrDexB for the full twelves, and Chanex & Kamikaze for the other big'uns, and of course everybody else who had the guts to go Oldies here, hehe.

I found this song when I was researching what to enter for the OPS foreign language round as an alternate (because Eric G scared me into thinking Ofra would get vetoed and I'd need one!) I fell in love with it then and love the guts it took to enter it in PJSC and how well it did! Kudos!

WOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOWX4! Congrats on Freak I have been singing it to myself all week, only sometimes the melody with the lyrics from Creep by TLC. It's hard to shoehorn them in, but the main chorus is easy: "so I cre eee eeeaaap…on the down low…no one has to know…."

Also, attached here are two excel sheets - one is my hosting template, which cuts pre time 10 fold with some serious excel formulas (which I've made visible for you) the second sheet is my hosting sheet for this round, it took about 1hr to go from orimess - imadone. The formulas are hidden in the Final spreadsheet so it doesn't look messy, but you can see them all in the template and see them at work in the spreadsheet.

(if you want to see the formulas in the Final spreadsheet just ctrl+A and turn all text black)

I found Ti Sento when I was researching what to enter for the OPS foreign language round as an alternate (because Eric G scared me into thinking Ofra would get vetoed and I'd need one!) I fell in love with it then and love the guts it took to enter it in PJSC and how well it did! Kudos!
Funny thing is, I already had it vetoed once in the OPS contest last spring - but only because someone else had already submitted another Matia Bazar song for the same round. So after constantly flopping with newer stuff here, and realizing it would be such a shame if Ti Sento was never tried anywhere, I thought this just might actually be a surprisingly good fit for PJSC as well.

I wonder what other Oldies songs if any have finished in the top ten here?

Your spreadsheet says I am 16th, but when you first posted the final standings you put me 18th. I always thought you may have something against me, but damn. That or you really hated World of Girls.

Just messin with you Imaduck, it was probably a typo. Your emergency hosting was life-saving and we all appreciate it.
 
Happy with top 10! Thanks to Rogue, Russron (didn't expect points from you!),
Hey! Why the heck didn'tcha? After all, I've given points to stuff like Sunny Hill and Ladies' Code before, so... I may be ancient but I know good K-pop when I hear it, hehe.
 
37... flopping is my game, I guess. Imaduck didn't even get my name right, that's how floppy I am (crying forever.)

Anyway, thank you to Oricon, jinzo, russron, and especially Raisin Hell and vikeyeol for the 12 pointers! You were my light during these dark times. (Sobbing.)
