ASFM Heat 3 - LIVE from Keri Hilson: VOTING CLOSES 5pm THUR 11/11

[dmlaw]

I agree but we still have to pay lip service to the rest of the contest.

Sorry, I meant EVERY song in each heat is a deserving winner.

Imagine if the whole thing was still set to go on for the better part of a month. That would be really embarrassing.

The Tischguana memorial Spotify playlist is here and in the first post:

 

[RaspberrySwirl]

Thank you hosts! Turns out this heat was slightly better than the one before it after all.

 

[ButterTart]

It's so weird seeing my actual name splashed around Moopy whenever I post a Spotify playlist.

 

[Raining on Me]

Yeah that last song was okay, I'm not getting the RAVE REVIEWS though

And so it was that, like Keri Hilson, Raining On Me died at home, wishing he'd sent that entry himself

 

[Kate]

THANKS HUNS!

I feel this heat is going to be considerably easier to score than the first two.

I do love how your parents showed their personality and exoticness when picking your middle name.

 

[Raining on Me]

Youtube automatically went onto another Empathy Test song which I MUCH prefer!

 

[Suomi]

RECAP (@ButterTart can you add to first post x)

 

[Tisch]

Thanks huns! Thrilled to have finally watched (most of) one live and to have had my first experience inside Keri Hilson!

 

[Lucille]

Can one of the hosts remind me how many songs each round go DTF, second chance round etc…

 

[Raining on Me]

Thanks @ButterTart and @Suomi

Hope everyone died happily at home tonight, at least Keri can finish her shift now

 

[Soldi]

Thank you to the two lovely hosts

 

[Suomi]

Can one of the hosts remind me how many songs each round go DTF, second chance round etc…

1st DTF
2nd DTF
3rd DTF
4th SECOND CHANCE
5th SECOND CHANCE
6th SECOND CHANCE
7th-10th - Dearly Beloved, we are gathered here

And every vote counts. The song in 7th from heat 2 lost by 1 point

I was named after the place I was conceived; Sid Vicious's grave.

 

[Kate]

Can we have a lovely list of the entries too please thankyou x I think I'm going straight back in for another listen

 

[ButterTart]

1st DTF
2nd DTF
3rd DTF
4th SECOND CHANCE
5th SECOND CHANCE
6th SECOND CHANCE
7th-10th - Dearly Beloved, we are gathered here

And every vote counts. The song in 7th from heat 2 lost by 1 point

Literally one more set of votes could have totally changed the list of qualifiers. The vote was so evenly spread.

 

[ButterTart]

I'll add it to the first post.

 

[Raining on Me]

Okay Youtube is playing nothing but Empathy Test - Losing Touch is everything! Much better than the actual entry, minus striking video obviously

 

[Raining on Me]

I'm going to be so upset if I don't make at least the second chance round from my heat. Real life doesn't matter, ASFM does though

That kind of emotional neediness happens when you stay in Keri's corpse too long I guess

 

[Lucille]

I’ll be fine if I don’t get through to the final.

 

[COB]

Thanks hosts!

 

[Raining on Me]

I’ll be fine if I don’t get through to the final.

Same!

 

[Kate]

Imagine your song being in this heat and being forced to give a point to Red Dress. So fummin/relieved that is/isn't me.

Isn’t Sarah Brand that Oxford student who made this song as part of her course to portray judgement or something? I think she was on the news or I saw her on some daytime show.

 

[Kate]

I did Google her and it seemed to be all articles pondering whether it was a deliberate social commentary or just another Rebecca Black situation. Do we have ANSWERS?

There's something quite hypnotic about how shrill and tuneless it all is; it makes sense that it's an art project because it's so perfectly atrocious it can't possibly have been accidental. Let's relive the magic again:

 

[Kate]

This woman redid it in tune (skip to 4:52) and makes it sound exactly like a @Barnacle entry after all.

 

[Saltwater]

Idk what it is about it, but I've been humming it all night.

 

[ButterTart]

It's actually quite a good song with normal vocals. I can imagine @dmlaw giving it an 8.

Well it’s obviously better than the original, in the same way that accidentally calling your teacher ‘Mum’ in front of the cool kids is better than the original, but the poor quality of the songwriting does still shine through.

 

[ButterTart]

I hope you've all had a chance to listen to these again overnight and are falling in love with each of them.

(was the GLORIA reference for the Trombone song?)

I have TWO front runners from this heat for my 12.

Decisions decisions.

It could have been, thinking about it.

Thunder and Gloria was literally just a reference to Monument by KEiiNO.

 

[Rita]

You are in so much trouble when @Rita watches this

I can’t really ARGUE, can I?

 

[ButterTart]

Three votes in so far. Shelley Nelson says we’ve burnt our bridges, but Maria Nayler has said she’s willing to perform at the final if we can get to ten votes by Sunday night.

 

[Tisch]

I have to say this is a very good heat! I'm going to end up having to give out low points to some I really do quite like!

 

[Music]

I have to say this is a very good heat! I'm going to end up having to give out low points to some I really do quite like!

Same! I did my first listen today and I really liked at least 6 of them. Overall much better than last 2 heats

 

[ButterTart]

I really think there are strong contenders in each heat. I felt like this one could go either way but I’m really pleased it’s getting the thumbs up.

 

[OutSynk]

Red Dress just came on and I literally burst out laughing.
