@Vektor thought you might be interested to know that a Hungarian song popped up on one of my personalized music discovery playlists. I probably won’t add this song to my fabled main playlist, but it seems like a really nice song. I found the translated lyrics to be a little confusing though. It’s certainly the kind of song that earn a few of my points at a TISC :d

It's always frustrating when an artists makes an album that's technically eligible for the Annual contest, but the lyrics that they adapting into their album aren't original, which makes them ineligible for Annual.

 

I would be too afraid to send her anyway because this isn't something that ever gets a lot of points in a song contest, so she works as an example as something that I find too "out there" as a submission. But she (Deva) is on my radar just in case she makes something more mainstream in the future, she's already getting a lot of acclaim in the Hungarian music industry.

I was really conflicted whether or not I should submit the most popular Hungarian artist of the year for TISC and in the end I decided to go with something more underground. Yeah, that didn't go well for me in TISC. :d The said popular artist, Azahriah, is actually becoming too big to ignore, I am pretty sure that I will submit him for Annual very soon just to see how international his appeal is. I think at this point he is the most successful Hungarian artist born after 2000. The reason why I didn't submit him for Annual this year is because his music isn't really what wins TISC, but he is making hits after hits, so I can't avoid this submission much longer.

 

Two more hits released in the past month...

    • An ISU World Championships would be a lot easier to host than an FIS World Championships.   The largest hurdle for host cities is whether or not they have a speed skating venue. The other disciplines can be held in generic large indoor arenas.
    • It's waaaay too expensive & inconvenient. Basically WOG minus the bobsleigh track & indoor arena for figure skating/hockey(which is the easy part of Olympic bid). Just won't happen anytime soon. Winter sports are too facility dependant and the entire alpine skiing requires a separate venue.
    • The ISU is looking into a combined World Championships for its 4 disciplines.   The FIS tried this and it appears the progress there has stalled.
