Re: KOSTANOVIA NSC 78: Thanks!!!!

Hey guys It's been such an eventful edition, with Zombira emerging as an early favourite I thought the chances Kostanovia winning were gone..... but NO Thanks so much to everyone who voted for Lana last edition and giving Kostanovia their first win after maaany close editions I didn't think this win would ever arrive! Also thanks to everyone who posted in this thread during the edition The flags by Strajker especially made me laugh! So I'll be hosting NSC 78, proudly so I hope you'll all join that I've confirmed my own entry but of course being as indecisive as I am I will probably change it all the time until the end of confirmation week But the entry I'm 90% sure on is a huge contrast from Lana, which is what I want - something happy and energetic to show the other side of my musical taste... so I've decided on the song below! It's drum and bass, really addictive and the singer has an aweeeesome voice Let me know what you guys think!

New page! Thanks Stefan and Andrea

Re: KOSTANOVIA NSC 78: Back home for NSC 78!

Okay so I decided, I'm not sending Hot Right Now, yet anyway. But I'm returning to my childhood home of Liverpool (which is where this band is from) for my NSC 78 entry This song has been near the top of my 'to send' list for a while but as I like to send a different style each edition, I never got round to sending it until now. I'll post the video and lyrics later but I really hope you enjoy it, as now is the perfect time to send it and it's a great contrast from softer sounds of Lana Del Rey!

The genre issss: Indie-pop, which you haven't seen from Kostanovia since Fenech-Soler in NSC 72.

Re: KOSTANOVIA NSC 78: The Wombats - 1996

KOSTANOVIA NSC 78
The Wombats 1996

I had no cares in the 1990s
I knew of no downfalls
The war was breaking out all around me
My concerns were with prank calls

She kissed me on the cheek
She kissed me on the cheek
Right in front of the older kids
When our self-belief
Our self-belief
Wasn't scarred by the modern itch

Cause now it feels like
We kiss with one eye on our TV set
And the more I give, the less I get
Needing fairground rides just to spark a smile
There's little here to miss, bring back 1996
Bring back 1996
I want to beat those teenage kicks
Bring back 1996

We were cloning sheep in the 1990s
We were building telescopes
And sugar filled the whole of my body
As I urged it on to grow

I kissed her on the cheek
I kissed her on the cheek
Just to impress the older kids
But my self-belief
My self-belief
Wasn't lost in the modern glitch

Cause now it feels like
We kiss with one eye on our TV set
And the more I give, the less I get
Needing fairground rides just to spark a smile
There's little here to miss, bring back 1996
Bring back 1996

Stop talking, stop talking
I need a lover, not a friend tonight
I'm leaving, I'm leaving
I'm not cut out for the modern life

I'll never beat those teenage kicks
I'll never beat those teenage kicks
I'll never beat those teenage kicks
Bring back 1996​

Re: KOSTANOVIA NSC 78: The Wombats - 1996

*random tangent* Tokyo (Vampires & Wolves) came on in a shopping centre today. I almost fangasmed in public.

Re: KOSTANOVIA NSC 78: The Wombats - 1996

LOLOL I would love to see that! I've never heard The Wombats anywhere on TV or radio... but they are sometimes on the specialist music shows late at night. There are some great bands on there actually, I should send bands more often

Cause somebody told you who was spinning

You know you're only in it cause it's hot right now
Hot right now, turn it up right now
Put your hands in the air if you want it right now

You got the latest places on your radar
But by the time you show your face it's over
You got the magic numbers on your speed dial
And you're too busy dropping names but meanwhile
Yeah meanwhile

You know you're only in it cause it's hot right now
Hot right now, turn it up right now
Put your hands in the air if you want it right now
Hot right now
You know you're only in it cause it's hot right now
Hot right now, turn it up right now
Put your hands in the air if you want it right now
Hot right now

Now let me see the club get hotter, hotter
I wanna see your hands up higher, higher
Follow me, come shout it, oh oh
Can I get a whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh?
Now let me see the club get hotter, hotter

Re: KOSTANOVIA NSC 79: Rita Ora - Hot Right Now

Thanks guys for the amazing 9th place I had a good feeling about Hot Right Now because of its great energy but never expected a top 10. My next entry is in a similar entry and genre, but slightly more indie and pop (together) if that makes sense. I think it will appeal to everyone in some way I've been considering it for a while.

Re: KOSTANOVIA NSC 80: Locnville - Stars Above You

My next entry is heeere, let me know what you think

Tonight's the night, we're gonna make the stars align
We were never meant to be, but you and me
Can make it alright
Cause I especially love you when the stars are above you
Said I especially love you when the stars are above you

When the stars are above you (x5)

I lay you down, down, down, down by the table top
I lay you down, down, down, down by the table top
And I'm not going anywhere, I'm not going anywhere
I'm not going anywhere, I'm not going anywhere
And even if the sun burns out and the stars fall down
I'll be standing there waiting for you
And when the sky just can't get any higher
I'll be laying there saying to you
That I especially love you when the stars are above you
I especially love you when the stars are above you
I especially love you when the stars are above you
I especially love you

When the stars are above you (x9)

Shooting stars, let me know who you are, who you are
Shooting stars, let me know who you
Cause I feel like I know, feel I know you
Shouldn't I, shouldn't I?
Cause I feel like I know, feel I know you
Shouldn't I, shouldn't I?

Cause I especially love you when the stars are above you
I especially love you when the stars are above you
I especially love you when the stars are above you
I especially love you

When the stars are above you (x9)
