I would. It is music and you’d assume that they have some form of domestic music scene

As a family we do 'country nights' and usually I find a song from each country, we've done every country from Uruguay to Botswana alphabetically and the only one I really struggled to find a song from was Bhutan as none of the songs are on Spotify but there's actually quite a few on Soundcloud. So yeah, pretty much every country is possible.

I know it's a bit off-topic but this sounds like a fun family activity tbh! When I was a kid, we had these cards with all the countries' flags on them and we'd play a guessing game and eventually I remembered all the European flags and a lot of the non-European flags too. I'd struggle a bit more now sad.gif

as a kid the games i'd play with my family were "go tidy your room or you don't get fed" or my personal fave "see if you can put your clothes away quicker than mum can throw them out the window"

Someone please edit my entry to
Andreea D - "Opa Opa - Bim Bim Bim"
https://youtu.be/aRuXST5ZE7Y

Completely randomly found on Spotify but made my ears perk up.

Taahino's song lives up to the name btw. Striking title, striking song! It sounds like it would fit almost perfectly on M.I.A.'s debut album.

So just unlucky we got nothing from East Asia. Fair, I guess, but I hope they get a bit of attention next time as they all have huge music industries and weird Laotian or whatever entries have been great highlights before.

@Iz - Really? You struck gold and gifted us that?


It’s melodic!

But god yes that was the most comfortable Worldvision assignment ever. I was drowning in stuff even after I restricted myself to only Deutsch language.

My next main contest entry is also going to be in German now if that means anything, though it probably won’t kink.gif

Unfortunately, we do not have 100+ posters to assign each country to a person. So I think someone would rather have the likes of Denmark to a country in the middle east with a population of 10,000


Also, this sounds like we’re getting to you. Don’t let us get to you. We’re not moaning at you at all, just discussing a bit. Maybe we’d have done the country selection slightly differently if we were hosting but we aren’t, you are. And now that is behind us. I’m actually really hopeful the contest itself is going to be good, the lineup looks promising names alone.

this idea could be interesting but it could also backfire. like I realize that we have close to 200 countries existing today but how many of those even have an existing music market?

'Murica strikes again oh no.

Well look, I am sorry.

Just try and remember that most people didn’t do this and are appreciating your hosting efforts, myself included of course.

I thought the Imran Khan here might be the former cricketer and now Prime Minister of Pakistan but sadly it seems to be a different Imran Khan.


Yeah I went in that order too!

Plug would be nice, would be a good refresher for me and I'll probably vote after that. I finished my first listen today and I love this edition wub.gif
