Totallympics Annual International Song Contest 2019

[OlympicIRL 5,532]

Like last year, I will post a few of the songs I considered for representation in the Music Thread. One short-listed band gave me @Wanderer-style vibes so I was naturally afraid to select them

Finally caught up with this thread lol

 

Though it's not among our best efforts, as @Olympian1010 said earlier, we'll bounce back for the open (we do much better in the open contest anyways lol), but I want to congratulate @OlympicIRL for his win, by far my favorite song in this edition and it always makes me happy to see my 12 pointer win, even if my own entry fails (and now I need to know how many of my 12 pointers have gone on to win the contest because I believe that's an exclusive club right there lol)

 

Also, my thanks to several of you who gave us points, especially to @Memo and @KingOfTheRhinos for the 12 points, because honestly, I was worried that goal wouldn't be reached (and it was reached 11/12 contests or something like that), and I'll also add @Function CR Lee @stefanbg @Finnator123 @vinipereira @titicow @Damian to the list of those that had our back.

 

Also, I send congrats to @mrv86 for hosting this contest, though it wasn't easy, especially when you had internet problems, which is always the worst thing that can happen to the host jury, but you stuck it out in the end and made it all possible, and having hosted the last open contest, I could sympathize what you had to go through to make it work.

 

Also, congrats to @heywoodu and @KingOfTheRhinos for your 2nd and 3rd places. Both of you made to my second listen, but Australia made it to my reserves and Netherlands, unfortunately, missed out on it

 

Finally, my personal votes from the US east coast (since I saw while going through the pages that @Olympian1010 made a comment about being on the west coast)

12 --  Ireland

11 --  India

10 --  China

9 --  Bulgaria

8 --  Greece

7 --  Norway

6 --  Germany

5 --  Colombia

4 --  Chile

3 --  Romania

2 --  Spain

1 --  Great Britain

R1 --  Mexico

R2 --  Algeria

R3 --  Australia

R4 --  Lithuania

 

Yeah, funny how my top 2 is also the combined top 2

Wow, thank you so much for the 12 points for Kodaline, it is an honour to receive it 

 

And it is indeed an exclusive club as I seem to remember writing a TISC article in the past about that topic. I think only once before and that was for The Script -Superheroes. So you have the magic touch for us in TISC Annual it seems

I don’t know yet, we will see how things work out. I would love to host but there are a lot of others who want to get their chance too and that’s a good thing.

I dont think that sindo will continu over 2020 , so you will never see one new host , each time the same persons  

@Agger will host for the 2nd time too

nothing against Denemark/Mexico , but i prefer to see the edition of dcro 

 

otherwise will be again only copy/past Google 

personnally i participated because there is nothing to do except the predictions 

i didn't see any show your éditions are not attractive not creative  primitive not inovative  , only excuses & wasting of time 

 

even kids around 5 years could do better

so this forum will never improve cause of the egoism of some people
