eBelgian Song Contest
EDITED!
This is a challenge for all music fans: let's make something similar to Eurovision Song Contest in here! We need at least 10 players to start the first edition of the contest. All you have to do is to choose a country from all over the world, choose a song from that country and send me PM [here: http://www.erepbelgium.com/privmsg?mode=post&u=738 ] with this info to me:
-Country you want to play with:
-Artist(s):
-Title of the song:
-YouTube link:
-Your Country
-Picture of the artist:
-Reason of your choice:
After that, we need to wait until at least 10 players subscribe. Then, the songs will be officially presented in the forum by me, and the voting procedure can start. (More about the voting procedure bellow.) The player who sent the best song will be given 1000 BEF - donation from el1temkd.
Some other rules:
-Players can only play with one song (and then for one country)
-Every country will be represented with only one song (so, if several players submit a song for the same country, then the first song which has been submitted for this country will be chosen).
-The song must be sung by a singer from the country you play for (no matter where the writers are from).
-It must be an original song. Cover versions are not allowed even if they're sung in another language than the original one.
-The song can be sung in any language (but it is recommended to choose a song sung in one of the official languages of the country you play for) except for small countries
-Players must vote for 10 songs. The points must be given as follow: 12 pts to the favourite song, 10 to the second one, 8 to the third one and then 7 to 1 pts for the song that come from 7th to 10th. You must send me PM with your votes after listening to all of the songs, and you cannot reveal your votes in the forum - if you do that, you will be punished with reduce of 33% of your points. If someone forgets to vote until the deadline, also will be punished with reduce of 33% of the points given to his song.
-The song with the highest score is the winner.
-If two or more countries have the same final score, the number of country that voted for each of them will make the difference. If we have still a tie, then the number of 12 points received is considered (and then 10 pts, 8 pts,... untill we have a winner). If none of these systems can make the difference, then all the songs will be considered as winners.
(NOTE: I'm planing to organize this contest monthly, so every month will be the same: 1000 BEF from el1temkd will go to the winner).

Re: eBelgian Song Contest
Does the song have to be serious? (i.e. how like eurovision do you really want this to be?)

You can send whatever you like! No matter if the song is serious or not. (Thou I prefer to send serious songs and not like ESC ones).

-Players must vote for 10 songs. The points must be given as follow: 12 pts to the favourite song, 10 to the second one, 8 to the third one and then 7 to 1 pts for the song that come from 7th to 10th.

If someone forgets to vote until the deadline, also will be punished with reduce of 33% of the points given to his song.
Copy-paste this into the PM (to make you a bit easier), and tell me just the name of the countries (no need to fill it with the artist names and/or song titles:
12pts.
10pts.
8pts.
7pts.
6pts.
5pts.
4pts.
3pts.

eBelgian Song Contest
can start right now:
N. | Flag | Country | Artist: Song | YouTube link | Reason |
01. | The Netherlands | Andre_Hazes: Bloed,_zweet_en_tranen | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5leVQeK_3Ws | Why Hazes only the question is already silly. This is the greatest dutch singer we had with real dutch songs. | |
02. | Yemen | Ayoob_Tarish_Absi: Tayr_Malak | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XSn525Z6da8 | To Represent the Yemeni society in eRepublik | |
03. | Canada | Robin_Sparkles: Let's_Go_To_The_Mall | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GF1b1pf9DRY | The eighties didn't came to Canada untill 1993. | |
04. | USA | Jack_White: Fly_Farm_Blues | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8UFb5UO-xBg | Granted it's probably not gonna be much of a popular choice, but it kinda contains everything I love about the blues. It was pretty much made up on the spot and played without a care in the world for getting it technically right. It's just music for music's sake, the lack of which is the main reason I hate a lot of music nowadays, where it's all about the money. (Man, I was born in the wrong generation...) | |
05. | Australia | Savage_Garden: Truly_Madly_Deeply | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WQnAxOQxQIU&ob=av2e | Is an Aussie classic, always liked it and it touches people in a different way depending on the way. | |
06. | Spain | Ken7: Zapalduen_Olerkia | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UdtyQj1Qw8E | Dunno, i just like it | |
07. | Armenia | System_of_a_Down: Chop_Suey | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CSvFpBOe8eY | 3 reasons: 1) Because countries like Armenia always win the European Songfestival, because they are Eastern European and they always vote for each other. I'm just joining the winning team here. 2) Because I want the winning country that no-one expected. (Really, who would have guessed "Armenia" beforehand?) 3) Because I want to challenge you, el1temkd, to find a Armenian waving flag just like UK/US/Canada/Yemen... bet no one bothered to make that one before. | |
08. | Ukraine | Boombox: Наодинці | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8PhF1D3bGS8 | The first Ukrainian band my mind came up with | |
09. | Macedonia | Superhiks: Na_Luta_Rana | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0_5RoUb_5-k | I like it! | |
10. | United Kingdom | Busted: Crashed_the_wedding | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=My2La6tbdKE | - | |
11. | Sweden | Basshunter: DOTA | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c_cCsFU6pak | Good old fashioned geek music. This one was a hit among internet community several years ago. Mostly WoW community though. The style is known as Euro Nerd music. Enjoy. | |
12. | Romania | Gheorghe_Zamfir: Ciobanasul_Singuratic | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5zRc6tBu7yg | To show a great popular artist from my country, best known for his "flute of Pan"; usualy less known abroad, although a lot of great movie soundtracks use his songs (for instance this song is soundtrack for Kill Bill); in the same time you can see some pictures with the beauty of nature in Romania. I could have participated with something more "en vogue", like Inna for exemple ;-) , but wanted to show something special (at least in my opinion). For those interested you can find plenty of youtube clips with his best songs. PM me if you want to know more or for me to direct you to the best youtube clips. |
