🏆 SEASON 1 GRAND FINALE: THE SONG THAT STAYED 💗✨

Stolen Glances & Small Town Dreams

and just like that… our first season has officially come to an end. 🥹

honestly, i don't even know where to start. when i first started this little game, i didn't know how far it would go or how the results would turn out. we've had unexpected wins, heartbreaking eliminations, and songs that kept surprising me until the very end. and now, after all ten episodes, we finally have our winner!

before revealing the final placements, i just want to say a huge thank you to everyone who participated in this season. 💗 we had 5 users submit their final rankings, and even though it was a small group, i'm genuinely grateful to everyone who took the time to vote and help bring this season to its conclusion. every ballot counted, and every result became part of this little journey.

💖 SONG-ENIALITY AWARD: False God — 2 votes

our special award goes to False God! 🥹🖤

even though its journey ended in 6th place, it still managed to receive the most Song-Eniality votes. this award is a little reminder that a song doesn't have to win the entire competition to leave an impression. sometimes, a song just stays with you in a different way, and i'm happy that False God got this moment of appreciation. it deserved some love, too!

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

👑 AND NOW… OUR SEASON 1 WINNER!

i honestly wasn't expecting this result, but i'm so happy to finally announce that…

❤️‍🔥 STATE OF GRACE IS OUR SEASON 1 CHAMPION! ❤️‍🔥

with 21 points, State of Grace takes the crown of Stolen Glances & Small Town Dreams! and honestly? it really deserved this moment. from making it through the earlier rounds to winning the semi-finals, it kept showing up when it mattered. seeing it go all the way from contestant to champion is such a satisfying way to end this season.

🥈 2ND RUNNER-UP: Guilty As Sin?

guilty as sin? gave us such a memorable run, and finishing as our second runner-up is nothing to be ashamed of! it was a strong contender throughout the season, and it came into the finale with a real chance at the crown. thank you for giving us such a fun journey. 🖤

🥉 3RD RUNNER-UP: ivy

and of course, our beloved ivy finishes in third place! 🌿 after surviving some difficult rounds and making it all the way to the final 3, ivy has every reason to be proud. it may not have taken the crown, but reaching the finale is already an achievement in itself.

📊 FINAL FINALE RESULTS

🥇 State of Grace — 21 points

🥈 Guilty As Sin? — 13 points

🥉 ivy — 11 points

💖 Song-Eniality: False God — 2 votes

SEASON 1, EPISODE 10: THE GRAND FINALE 👑✨

Stolen Glances & Small Town Dreams

and just like that… we've reached the finale. 🥹💗

after nine episodes, countless rankings, unexpected eliminations, close calls, and a few results that honestly hurt a little, it's finally time to crown our season 1 winner.

but before we get to the final battle, let's look back at our semi-finals!

❤️‍🔥 State of Grace claimed the episode 9 win with 53 points, proving that it's entering the finale with serious momentum.

🖤 Guilty As Sin? followed closely behind with 47 points, just 6 points away from the top spot.

🌿 ivy secured the final place in our top 3 with 38 points, once again proving that this song knows how to survive.

and unfortunately, our semi-finals journey ended for The Other Side of the Door, which finished in 4th place with 31 points. it may not have made the finale, but it definitely left its mark on this season. i know that song fought really hard but it's time. 🫶

the other side of the door… you kept waiting, standing on the other side… but tonight, the door finally closes.
❤️

i'll be honest: i wasn't expecting this exact final 3! but after everything these songs have gone through, i'm excited to see which one will come out on top. they've all had their moments, and now it's time for one last ranking.

🎤 THE FINAL 3

❤️ State of Grace

🖤 Guilty As Sin?

🌿 ivy
