WorldVision Song Contest 32 - OOC/Signups [SIGN-UPS CLOSED]

[WorldVision Committee]

CONTEST THREAD

---

Since WorldVision 31 is now over, here's the signups for the 32nd WorldVision Song Contest! Post your national final here. Or, if you don't want to actually post a national final, you can just tell us the title of the song, and the name of the artist performing it and it will be treated as an internal selection.
The contest itself is the same as Eurovision Song Contest. First, all the participating countries post the performance (with lyrics) of their entry, and then, once all the entries have been performed, every nation decides their votes, with the same 1 to 12 points format as used in Eurovision. Everything's the same except that we don't have those silly rules about how many of them can be on the stage, etc.
All songs in the contest must be original. No real-life songs or artists may be entered into the contest, but parodies of RL song are of course allowed. Parody doesn't mean "real life song with some other words" but a song with TOTALLY different lyrics on the melody of a RL song. Also translations of original lyrics are NOT allowed.

Each user may enter, in addition to their main nation, one puppet nation. Master nations must confirm their puppet. Entering more than one puppet may result in sanctions or disqualification. Voting is compulsory for all participants, and failing to do so will result in disqualification from the next contest.

Anyone who has participated in at least one contest can enter a host bid. Débutantes cannot enter a host bid.

[Bosnian Krajina]

How can I sign up?

ex. Zlatan Muslimovic with the song Son.

Tell me if its right.

Zlatan Muslimovic is our performe and our song is Son and I don't want any tune, I want my melody.

Yes, that's OK - when you say you don't want any tune but want your melody, does that mean you're making your own melody or just going without any melody whatsoever?

Can I use the same melody of a song that was used in a previous contest?

[Communist Quinntopia]

redacted

[Bosnian Krajina]

Can I use the same melody of a song that was used in a previous contest?

You can, as long as the lyrics are different.

Ok. My melody is from the song Not Alone by you know who ARAM MP3 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ChkJpnOgIwQ

[Calimera II]

Song TBH and I'll bid.

[Mister X]

Seeing as I didn't come last last time (and would have come higher had Luzicya not smeared it), I will bid again.

[New North Aqmuland]

Let's give this a shot.

Song and artist to come later.

[Elke and Elba]

After Andrea-Epp was confirmed to be pregnant, it is now impossible for EnE to send her own song or Ólafur Jórun's song because Jórun dictated only Andrea-Epp to sing it alongside him if EnE were to send it. Thus, Helga Tolvardóttir Norrland's What The Hell will be sent instead, and sung alone instead of a duet as previously conceived.
