You still have 3 more days to vote, and I am waiting on 4 sets of votes.
As it stands, 4 of them look quite safe and it's any 2 from the other 6.

Oh bum! I came here to see which dire song had got which act in the sing-off but I’ve got three more nights to wait!

Votes in.
A handful I really liked but on the whole, not many of the ones I didn't already know would encourage me to check out that artist's deeper cuts. And a couple of choices where even without being too familiar with the other options, it's hard to think that there wasn't something better on offer.

This is a really hard round to get the song choice right. Unless your act has a song that's super well-known, you just never know if casual listeners are going to like the same ones as you - after one or two listens.

Yeah, you got to hope your act had either a hit song that wasn't a single or a really strong (usually debut) album everyone listened too. I even had an act lined up but couldn't find anything that would get through this round so had to pass on entering them

This is a really hard round to get the song choice right. Isn't that the point of this round ? This is the round where song selection, as opposed to the artist selection, really comes through as important.

And the one time this round landed me in a sing-off previously it was with a song I was very confident of!

I don't know the origin of all of the songs in this round, but I think the majority were not from an immensely popular album, and there's only one here that I recognise as being a hit, and that didn't make the Top 50. To me, it seems that most mentors have worked hard to find a suitable song for this round, and should now be comfortable with their choice, even if they haven't had non-singles hits or a knockout popular album to pull from.

I just meant ideally this would be the type of song perfect for this round, not that the non-single round in Haven Factor 12 went this way I was actually thinking, now we are on the 12th edition of HF this round is looking a little outdated, I'd probably drop it if I ran HF13 and allow singles that didn't chart in the top 100, so have a non chart hit round instead. So there is a little more quality to chose from but still be a tricky round people need to think about

Votes on their way now. Personally this was a bit of a random round for me. I don't want to give anything away, but my votes in this round were very different, than in all of the previous rounds.
This is the first time I've made it to the album track round on this game. I just had a punt on a track I liked without going through every single track that my act has done. This may lead to my downfall when someone tells me "You should have played ...."

One of the songs in the round had a cover version single release by another artist. That does not disqualify it, although I did consider banning covers of hit singles (but not originals later covered)

My votes will be in later - had a DIY emergency that meant the electric had to be turned off for half the day.
