![]()  The BLOGG CAST EP.1
G: Grant
A: Anna
Hello listeners, this is you bloggcasters Grant and Anna here and this is your first episode of the Bloggcast where we will be discussing our thoughts and opinions on the songs of Edition 24 of the Fantasia Song Contest.
A: Welcome Grant
G: Hey Anna, here we are, edition 24 has started and the countries and preparing to see who will win in Taslana this edition. What we hoping to see?
A: We are going to see a lot of interpretations this edition. I can imagine a few shocks and surprises along the way but the contest would not be interesting without a few twists ahha! From both of us competing in the Junior Fantasia, we know what that stage and pressure can be like but for the adults, this is a different level and if they do not perform well, you will not be winning.
G: absolutely, and each country will be representing themselves on that stage. For me, I hope we see something new, something talented and is a brilliant representation of our world of Fantasia.
The first Country to reveal their submission is  Evergreen. The first country to host the contest. In #24, Jenevieve Johnson will be their representative and the song is "Baby Powder". Anna, thoughts?
A: Well the title itself is a stand out and for Jenevieve to represent. She is a good singer. She has the modern style that the music industry seems to be loving right now. From Elle King, Allie X and Phoebe Bridgers. Another solo female performer. She sings this song well and there a nice soft feeling that comes from listening to this song.
G: Well, we have our listeners rank the song out of 100 and Evergreen has scored a 38/100.
A: The next country is  Corzazjan being represented by Rei Ami and their song 'Mac & Cheese' Grant want to share?
G: If Baby Powder was unique well, why not introduce food HA! Well Corzazjan definitely have sent alternatives to the contest and have had mixed reviews with each entry. Personally, as a first listen it is edgy and different and has a pop style. This will definitely do well on the stage and be fun.
A: Well it has received a score of 46/100 so maybe Corzazjan are lucky the Haven public is not voting haha!
Our third entry is  Ruyjin Republic, Preyah will be competing with her song Pojar.
G: Well this is energy! Ruyjin has tended to do well with White Havens polls and when they qualify most often they do well. This is a great song and we really hope this does well. With a score of 71/100. Great job.
A: Next we move to  Sincuerello. U.S Girls will be representing with the song Mad As Hell. This has a very 80s vibe that is for sure. Personally, this had alot of potential as they have talent but instead ... the foul language and visual remarks used. It is quite offputting sadly. I do think this will go far but sadly not for me.
G: With a rating of 14/100. I think the public might share that view. This is all we have this time but next episode we will do a quickfire round of 10 countries!
See you next time and Blogg!  |

G: Grant
A: Anna
Hello listeners, this is you bloggcasters Grant and Anna here and this is your second episode of the Bloggcast where we will be discussing our thoughts and opinions on the songs of Edition 24 of the Fantasia Song Contest.
A: Welcome back, two weeks have past and more entries have revealed themselves. This episode is a quick fore of 10 entries.
G: With so many songs to go through let us start.
We begin with  Shkeera and they have sent Julien Baker singing 'Hardline'
A: Brilliant song and lovely performer, passion and power in this song, not sure if it will do well but we are liking it here. A 81/100 from us. A great start to this fire episode
We go to  Niolskiaj who has sent the song 'Accidentally Told You' and this is performed by Tamzene Grant, thoughts?
G: A lovely voice, good control and is easy to listen to. Sadly, with this song, it just sounds too depressing. It is a surefire entry to qualify but I do not think this would receive the TWH vote. 21/100 I think backs it up! Sorry
 Pohunskia revealed their entry next and it is MÏRÄNDÄ performing 'I AM ART'
A: This is surprising good even when the lyrics do show alot of self confidence. It is more than your usual sorrow ballard there are moments of strength which work for this entry. A score of 57/100 is not a bad score at this time.
 Wedse was next with 'Yallah' and this will sang by Abir
G: This is brilliantly done, the ethnic style song but still so pop and modern. ''Yallah Habibi'' is in my head so much. THis could reach the TWH Top 40. Unique, stand out but still good. 93/100 An ace score good job Wedse.
Next we have  Juliana will send 'KOLO KOLO' being performed by balming tiger.
A: Not familiar with the artist. The song is different to the music usually heard in TWH. It is different and it nice to have variety in the performers. 26/100
 Llort were next and they are represented by No Wyld performing Odyssey.
G: This gives me Imagine Dragon and Woodkid vibes, sounded very earthy and tribal in sound. A 53/100 a middlish song.
 Sirenforest are next and they plan to 'Crystallize' with Enemy Inside.
A: Our first rock band this edition. A great band, who have played across Fantasia. A great song and I do like a female lead vocalist in bands like that. 77/100 a top score !
 Scandavia join Sirenforest with rock from Holy Wars singing 'Welcome To My Hell'
G: I think this band is great and another good song as well. With Sirenforest just recently revealing their song I think they do the style a bit better which is a shame. 66/100 is still a higher end score.
 Neocastria are next, TKkay Maidza performing '24K'
A: Very mellow rap song. It is nice and can imagine it on a long drive alongside the coast. Very melodic. 71/100 as well.
The last country in our blitz is  Kuwiang, the first country to debut this edition and they will be represented by Will Jay with 'Lies'
G: well its a great song to debut with and Will Jay has been an upcoming artist with Kuwiang. The songs has great rhythm and we hope it does well. 73/100 is a great score for a debut
And that has been our blitz, well what a blogg this has been. We will see you again next episode for more performances, scores and opinions.
See you next time and Blogg! [/div][/div][/div] |

![]() The BLOGG CAST EP.3
G: Grant
A: Anna
Hello listeners, this is you bloggcasters Grant and Anna here and this is your second episode of the Bloggcast where we will be discussing our thoughts and opinions on the songs of Edition 24 of the Fantasia Song Contest.
A: Welcome back,the final acts have been revealed. Every country competing has chosen their entry and the contest is about to begin. We will be going through more of the remaining countries and at the end of the next episode we will reveal our Votes from The White Havens.
We begin with  Torlova who has chosen Lafawndah with the song 'Ally'
G: Very surreal and unusual song. There are good features but equally there are downsides. I think as it is so different it could go either way in the show. A 23/100 for us I think.
Next us  Demacia being represented by Kalandra with 'Borders'
A: The singing and harmonies are great. The almost electro sound makes the ballard feel modern and strong. A 68/100 from us.
 Kazkya is next, 'Auf Wiedersehen' is the song by Mansfield.TYA
G: Not a fan sadly, I think the use of the xylophone in that background doesn't work for this. It is also quite airy and need to stand out more to get the high scores it needs. A 17/100 for us I think.
Next us  Ulikana being represented by Sônge with 'Winer'
A: A nice song, very middle ground. It isn't weak but it is not standing out to be a winner sadly. A 36/100 from us.
 Glaiola is next, '¿Qué Más Quieres De Mí?' is the song by Marta Sango.
G: Upbeat, energetic. Almost similar to Dua Lip with the song Physical.... maybe a influence for the song? . A 62/100 for us I think.
Next us  Zylofonija being represented by Kaytranada & Tinashe with 'The Worst In Me'
A: I get mellow vibes with this, again another song just not pushing itself to be unique. Maybe get decent in the semi final but just needs more... something. A 31/100 from us.
 Lanovina is next, 'Persephone' is the song by Dead Can Dance.
G: The voice is like Florence Welsh if she was taking us to church. Sounds very Holy. The music is like from a ballet. Very unique indeed. I will be surprised to see where this ends up. 20/100 is the score.
Next us  Ermy being represented by Louise Verneuil with 'Love Corail'
A: I feel that there is a certain pattern that countries want to stick to or they are written by the same person. This makes me too sad. A 8/100 from us.
Next us  Lakadamia being represented by La Féline with 'Où est passée ton âme?'
G: The music is interesting, I feel it is trying to take me on a journey, just not sure if I enjoy where it is going. A 21/100 from us.
Next us  Qasentria being represented by Flower Face with 'Morphine Dreams'
A: We reviewed the national selection where this was from and it was our 2nd favourite from Qasentria. A nice song very vulnerable. A 48/100 from us.
Next us  Namimori being represented by April Red with 'Nude Model'
G: Ohh No !!! What a shame Queen of the night did not win! This song is still great and exotic. A 79/100 from us.
Next us  Lidonia being represented by KennyHoopla with 'how will i rest in peace if i'm buried by a highway?'
A: Probably the longest song title this edition. They probably won't win ... but least they will be known for something this edition. A 22/100 from us.
Next us  Fyor being represented by Rheya with 'Franchise'
G: It, again. Another mellow entry the lyrics are nice. If I was upset and on a drive then this would be the mood. A 40/100 from us.
Next us  Hwaesonna being represented by Stayc with 'So Bad'
A: Some upbeat lyrics for a mellow tune. Interesting how they play together. A 34/100 from us.
Next us  Moly-Boronia being represented by SONNET SON with 'I'm Not A Warrior'
G: Great ballard, great lyrics and a beautiful voice A stand out and we hope it does well. A 84/100 from us.
Last Up  Katsyria being represented by Palina with 'Takiye devchonki'
A: This is similar to Ermy with that sorrow and sadness built into the song. With an airy quiet voice it doesn't work for me. A 10/100 from us.
And we are done, 15 songs this episode we are flying through.
And that has been our blitz, well what a blogg this has been. We will see you again for the last epsiode for more performances, scores and opinions.
See you next time and Blogg! [/div][/div][/div] |

![]() The BLOGG CAST EP.4
G: Grant
A: Anna
Hello listeners, this is you bloggcasters Grant and Anna here and this is your second episode of the Bloggcast where we will be discussing our thoughts and opinions on the songs of Edition 24 of the Fantasia Song Contest.
A: We are here for the final episode for the bloggcast for Fantasia ed.24. Every country competing has chosen their entry and the contest is about to begin. We will go through the final countries and reveal our top 10 countries.
We begin with  Alkyria who has chosen Vlossom with the song 'Catch Your Breath'
G: It is a bit like electro 80s music, it upbeat and fun The staging will be interesting to pull off but overall successful. A 78/100 for us I think.
Next us  Alchten being represented by Dua Saleh with 'Umbrellar'
A: It is quite solemn, the lyrics are good and the staging will be very well done. It is slowing growing on me. A 56/100 is for this song.
Next is  Fordia who has chosen LOVE SICK with the song 'Fever'
G: The production and time put into this has paid of. The chorus is catchy and engaging, it makes you want to listen to more. I am sold.
A 86/100 for us I think.
Next us  Vradiazi being represented by Delaporte with 'Las Montañas'
A: I don't understand the goat... Why? The Lyrics are interesting but the music is so dramatic. A 42/100 is for this song.
Next is  Dyria who has chosen Soda Blonde with the song 'Swimming Through the Night'
G: A nice song, again the song feels like an older song, like a Sinead O'Conor vibe. Solemn and soft.
A 55/100 for us I think.
Next us  Freyhurst being represented by Kat Cunning with 'Supernova'
A: Very uplifting and she has such a great voice. Enjoyable to listen to with good lyrics and catchy Chorus. A 74/100 is for this song.
Next is  Ninelie who has chosen Kety Fusco with the song 'Ultrasystole'
G: What an intro, so captivating and so interesting. The lack of lyrics and only music you can hear the story without words. Talent.
A 80/100 for us I think.
Next us  Aquia being represented by Ivete Sangalo with 'O Mundo Vai'
A: Very upbeat, feels carnival and scatty too. This has nice for the contest. A 72/100 is for this song.
Next is  Kingdovania who has chosen A.A Williams with the song 'Melt'
G: Very contrasting elements with the sad sorrow lyrics and voice to go with the energy of the music. I think voice brings down the performace in this. A 32/100 for us I think.
Next us  Glacea being represented by Promis3 with 'Simulated Paradise'
A: The lyrics compliment this music and the voices works perfectly. This is the song that will do well, maybe the dark horse . A 91/100 is for this song.
Next is  Danskanksova who has chosen Tanerélle with the song 'Mama Saturn'
G: Very mellow, the lyrics are strong and you really have to tune into the song. A 28/100 for us I think.
Next us  Boninbourg being represented by Hoody ft. GRAY with 'Adios'
A: It is enjoyable, the flick between languages is a good touch to mix it up. A 51/100 is for this song.
Next is  Jarea who has chosen KÅRP with the song 'Left Handed'
G: Futuristic and surreal, the creepy verses to the electric chorus makes the song dramatic and different. A 63/100 for us I think.
Next us  Ximbala being represented by Vale with 'Aguaceroa'
A: I don't think this is the song, It just leaves me wanting more. Very one note. A 13/100 is for this song.
Next is  Decoria who has chosen Soccor Mommy with the song 'Circle The Drain'
G: This gives me country Vanessa Carlton vibes, its simple and nice. A 60/100 for us I think.
Next us The host nation,  Taslana being represented by dumbblonde with 'Dreamsicle'
A: It is funny and entertaining. The lyrics are memorable and works really well to make a good entry. A 72/100 is for this song.
Next is  Flírskmasto who has chosen Pussy Riot with the song 'Rage'
G: The message in the lyrics are strong and we hope that things get resolved in Flírskmasto and become more accepting. Although the lyrics are good, a rock scream style is not for me. A 44/100 for us I think.
Next the last country of the edition,  Eldance being represented by Thalia, Farina & Sofía Reyes with ' TICK TOCK'
A: Three iconic singer, Eldance must be looking for a win to have these names this edition. The song is exotic and exciting. A 70/100 is for this song.
And we are done, All the songs of Fantasia ed.24. What an exciting few episodes alot of lows and highs
So for the edition, out top 10 are.
 Wedse
 Glacea
