Wumo 3,001 Posted September 24, 2019 Author #81 Share Posted September 24, 2019 (edited) To all. I have informed Ionutz24 about the song he has posted is not eligble. Edit: To specify, I mean the song posted on the last page (page 8), not the song he has posted on this page (page 9).

Vektor 3,326 Posted September 24, 2019 #84 Share Posted September 24, 2019 (edited) The rules don't say anything about this, but I think it would be weird if we would say that the artists who have "featuring" credit also represent more than 50% of the act. The use of the "featuring" credit instead of an "and" suggests that it's Sasha Lopez's song and not a completely equal collaboration between the artists. I mean, for example, let's say Desert Rose has two featured Algerian artists instead of one. Would that truly make it a 33% British production when it was released and promoted as a Sting single?

English Spoiler As if I did not exist, she passed me by, Without a glance, Queen of Saba. I said: " Aïcha, take: all is for you." Here the pearls, jewels, Therefore gold around your neck, the quite ripe fruits with the honey taste, My life, Aïcha, if you like me. I will go where your breath carries out us In the ebony and ivory countries. I will erase your tears, your sorrows. Nothing is too beautiful for so beautiful. Oooh! Aïcha, Aïcha, listen to me. Aïcha, Aïcha, please don't go. Aïcha, Aïcha, look at me. Aïcha, Aïcha, answer me. I will say the words of the poems. I will play the musics of the sky. I will take the rays of the sun to light your eyes of queen. Oooh! Aïcha, Aïcha, listen to me. Aïcha, Aïcha, please don't go. She said: " Guard your treasures. Me, I want better than all that, Of the strong bars, the bars even out of gold. I want the same rights as you And of the respect for each day. Me, I want only love." Aaaah! As if I did not exist, she passed me by, Without a glance, Queen of Sheba. I said:, Aïcha, take, all is for you." I want you Aïcha, and I die for you This is the story of my life and my love You are my respiration and my life I want to live with you, only with you Lalala... lalala...

Olympian1010 7,971 Posted September 24, 2019 #87 Share Posted September 24, 2019 The American Jury has completed the first round of it’s national selection process. The process was very difficult because of how much American music changes by decade and because of the massive amount of nominated songs. Of the 40 songs that entered the preliminary round only between 7-11 remain in contention for the nomination. The American jury expects to announce it’s selection this weekend. “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire.

OlympicIRL 5,532 Posted September 24, 2019 #89 Share Posted September 24, 2019 Regarding the Moldovan song, as I understand, this is Sasha Lopez's song and despite the fact that it has 2 featured artists that are from other nations, it is his song and so seems perfectly fine in this case to represent Moldova. We recognise that things can't always be black or white in terms of eligibility and that's why some discretion is allowed so that if it feels right that an entry should represent x nation, then we allow it. That is the purpose of the bolded part of the rule below although I think we can probably improve upon the definition for the future to kind of tease out this scenario further: Quote 2. (a) Artists chosen to represent a nation must have been born in or be of the same nationality as the nation for which they are participating OR they must have more or equal association with that nation. So here, the main artist is Moldovan and while the other artists aren't associated with Moldova, this entry definitely has as much association with Moldova as it does any other country. We will always take the "grey scenarios" on a case by case basis and in this case it seems right that this song can represent Moldova. If I am misunderstanding about this song's origin please let me know but looks like it is Sasha Lopez's song and he is a Moldovan artist amen09 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
