EXCITING.

I took out the contests from different decades, duets, and Eurovision entries to take away obvious and esc bias.

Also, I removed songs that I knew before they were submitted because of bias towards those songs. For example Tom Helsen's - "Home" was a favorite from TSC 16, but I had known about it and even blogged about it way before it was submitted. Others in this category include Azis "Sen Trope" and 2NE1 "I am The Best"

Special mentions for artists that were submitted but didn't break into my top 25 finds, Natalia Kills, Emeli Sande, Ella Henderson, Delta Rae, Watsky, and Ingrid Michaelson.

Also some of the just outside the top 25:
Aaradhna - "Lorena Bobbitt" (submitted by Fritzy)
Laura Mvula - "That's Alright" (submitted by Mack)
Ella Henderson - "Ghost" (submitted by Monrooster)
Carly Slae Jepsen - "Call Me Maybe" (submitted by Chris99x)
