Also, the Elizabeth Mirfont RP is now called Comme les Jours à Pied.

PLOT: In 2013, Elizabeth drops out of college and moves back to Vircao. After a suicide attempt in May 2013, she starts recuperating from her injuries and starts a new life. The thread will open in a day or two.

Coming off of the heels of a great Worldvision 36, the NCAT (National Community of Artists and Talent) was excited to put forward another great effort for WV37. Angelica Slate's "Broken" became her first single to hit #1 on the Blackstone Top 50. She also walked away with Gemini Awards for "Most Critically Acclaimed Song", "Song of the Year", "Best Pop Song of the Year" and "Best Live Performance of the Year". Beyond that, her "Blank Slate" tour became an instant success selling out at every venue. Her live album of the same name also was nominated for a Gemini Award, but it lost out to WHF contestant Angelica Terrace's "The End". Terrace notably took awards for "Best Rock Song" "Best General Concert" and "Best Female Vocalist". The NCAT's plan was to have Angelica Slate return for WV37 and perform "Over the Edge", which had already been written and choreographed. (Un)fortunately enough, Slate became pregnant, and is now expecting a child. To replace Slate, the NCAT has lined up three acts, and is allowing for a public vote to determine who will represent Teague in this next contest. With trailblazing female vocalist Donna Trish stepping down as NCAT President, and songwriter Micheal Norse taking the helm, Teague is now entering a new era of musical tastes.



#1 "Incline" by Tidals


#2 "Tripping" by The Pathfinders


#3 "Sunlight" by Zeros



Please telegram your votes to Vettrera, and rank the songs (1st-3rd) based on your preference. In the spirit of new policies and new ideas, Teague will use the following method in ranking your votes: 4 votes will go to your first choice, 2 votes to your second, and -1 vote to your last.

Fine.


To be fair, I would prefer more constructive criticism since after all, votes are decided by us people after all. :p Being objective may not be a good measure of judgement here, since to get points, I've to pander to tastes perhaps! ;)

I hope Larthinia isn't offended, because I do understand people might have different tastes. Which is why my commentaries are largely positive for most entries, if I do do a commentary. I would have to point out though, that my covers usually is limited to choosing pictures of the real artists behind the song, since only that seems to do justice when their lyrics are being altered and even wrecked by us. I could improve on the font choice, but I haven't went font-picking for quite a long time, unfortunately, and don't have the time to do so.

Hope this helps explain my covers and any other assorted questions. :hug:

You don't have to ask, mate! All you have to do is come up with a song and someone to sing it. Both have to be original, although you can use the melody of a real life song and a picture of a singer/band.

Ah yes, I remember reading WV28, the one Vampirum hosted, as prep for WV29, which was my debut. It's like Italy in Eurovision all over again.
